normal behaviour?

[davey_fl]

So I was watching a show which had back to back episodes. each show was 1 hour in length. 9 minutes before the end of the first episode, I had to leave, so I hit record on the FIRST episode. I left sage guide up and left. When I came back, only the first show (the last 9 minutes) were recorded, nothing else. I thought it would have continued to record on that channel the 'live tv'... any thoughts?

That doesn't sound right, might be a bug.

I've noticed that SAGETV 2.0 seems to be a bit more intellegent in only recording what you've actually watched, instead of marking something that was on when you clicked back into the menu.

Anyway, the way I get around problems like this is to mark the shows I like as favorites, and then manage what has been recorded.

Has anyone tried this behavior when in full TV view? I would hate to loose that behavior from 1.4.

I can see the logic for it when in the Guide though.

If he had not hit record, it would have done everything on that station until he came back. That is unless he put sage to sleep.

that's what it should have done, but it didn't...

I just tested with full screen live TV. I records the current show as requested and continues to timeshift the next show.
