Justus 8 Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 Hey, I have a quick question before I set up Live TV. Is it possible to record something at 20:15 for example and start watching it at 20:45 while the recording is still running?

Justus 8 Posted January 31, 2021 Author Posted January 31, 2021 So I mean that I can watch the recorded File while its still recording?
SamES 1004 Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 The only limitation will be that you may not be able to seek forward/back (which will be client dependent)
SamES 1004 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Seeking while recording doesn't work on Samsung or LG clients (they are DirectPlaying). I expect a client the streams with HLS while recording will support it though

I expect a client the streams with HLS while recording will support it though If they are like the other Android clients this is a setting you adjust to allow direct playing of TS files. Have you turned this off in settings? Disabled and you can then pause, rw, ff but it comes at a bit slower channel tune/startup
gillmacca01 180 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Just look on my Samsung phone, and cannot find the setting. Is this only an option when you are playing a file?
Carlo 4552 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Check Settings->Live TV Settings->Direct Play Live TV turn that off and try it.

Carlo 4552 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) That was right from my phone. Version 1.8.71g Edited February 2, 2021 by cayars

Carlo 4552 Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 Sorry I think I missed something earlier as @SamES is of course correct as this wasn't android mobile or ATV being discussed. LG & Samsung TV is different as he pointed out. Sorry for any misinformation or confusion on this.
