i often thought about that and even suggested it a long time ago to the
mailinglist. but it seemed as nobody was interested.

i myself think that it should not be a great problem to "record" the
videodata
to memory all the time. and then you can "press stop" or even "replay" for
about 2s for every Mb you have installed. that should be enough.

so does nobody but guido and me think this would be a very nice feature ???

servus hannes!
