Development still in progress?

because record has url in it
url changes it goes to blank cause it recording from a dead feed

I'm not sure why this isn't understood

I am looking at it from this standpoint.

If the TV app has the ability to resume a stream after buffering for more than 20 seconds with no user interaction required, I ASSUME this means the TV app has the ability to detect the new stream URL. So, assuming that is correct, I do not understand why the PVR app cannot do the same and just start a NEW recording to continue recording the show once the new URL for the stream has been detected.

I understand what you are saying regarding the URL being set at the time of creating the scheduled recording. What I don't understand is why the PVR app cannot simply "query" the channel to ensure that stream URL is still valid, and if it is not, grab the new stream URL from the TV app to either resume the recording or, make a new file to pick up where it left off using the new URL.

The same way the TV app knows when a stream comes back after 15-20s of buffering. We don't have to do anything for the stream to resume, if figures it out by itself, so why can't the PVR do the same?

You can only do so much with these little boxes and to much of one thing may mess up another.If the developer says it can't be done without a steady Url then it can't be done.You may see things change as time goes on and hardware and software gets better.They need to keep things economical for the user.

I think you're missing my point, if the code is already in place in the TV app itself for it to detect when there is a new url for a stream (while you are watching live) I don't understand why that same code can't be shared with the PVR code.

Your missing our point.The developer says it can't be done and then it can't be done.They are not new at what they do and they have provided a good box for the end user.I'm sure they will put out newer boxes and continue to support this box.

I will email and correspond with buzz directly. I'm not going to waste my time arguing here, since no one here is the developer. That is unless someone here is going to present themselves as an official developer or as authorized to speak on their behalf. No one here has made that claim. I started this thread to find it a development was still in progress, not to argue about how features should or should not work.

you will be talking to the same person who dishuser quoted saying it could not be done

Record based on channel wrapper rather than actual stream url...current method passes stream url to record routines rather than channel ids with associated stream url.

100%. Grabbing the current Stream URL is a bad idea, especially if you are setting something to record 4-5 days later, when in almost 100% certainty, the URL will have changed. That would explain why almost nothing I scheduled to record many days in advance ever did successfully. The PVR should "tune in" to that channel to get the current Stream URL at the time of recording, not at the time of setting the recording schedule.

now that is truly right should record what on that time frame not url on that day that's where the problem is when or if its done that way

Clearly you know something that we don't, since they have gone silent on email and the updates page still shows 247 from February as the latest. So, can you provide more information as to this 297 update please?
