Sage really needs a Keep at Most setting

[White94Cobra]

Hi all... There are a few shows that I always like to have a few recordings available. However, if I set them as a Favorite it records up to 10 a day. It would be really nice if SageTV had a "Keep at Most" setting so you could keep 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or all of a show. Also, a "Save until I delete" would be nice too

I third the "Keep at Most" request. I like to record several hours of different shows through out the week, to watch on the weekend. Nothing is worse than coming home to find out that a marathon of a "favourite" show has pushed other shows recorded earlier off the list. Especially when you are looking forward to that show. Holidays are notorious for this. I know I can move shows to the library, but on monday I don't always know what I'll want to watch on the weekend. As far as marking shows as watched it helps, but is not perfect. I like to watch Law&Order, even the old episodes I may have just seen. At the same time I don't want all 18 hours of it there on saturday.

The "Save Until I Delete" is also badly needed. It's perfect for when you don't like a show, but your spouse does. My wife uses this feature on our Tivo to record her Christopher Lowell shows. Then she'll set down on the weekend and watch her own minimarathon, while I'm on the Internet.

I asked for this when v1.0 came out, but there were more important things on the list.

I would really like to see this happen too. Now that recording time padding is in there, after that this gets added I will finally have pretty much the same features I had using WinXP MCE.

All in due time. Keep up the good work.

Oh man do I need this feature. It's just how people moving over from Tivo's and Replay's are used to working, especially if they have kids.
