Well, your streaming plugin needs a way to handle this, thats right. But a
live-ringbuffer IMHO does not need to keep scenes from another channel.
Normally, you won't rewind over a channel switch, so on every channel
switch, the buffer can be re-initialized to become empty.

This will be a nice and powerful feature, and only few, if not none of the
commercial boxes have it already... :-)

Bye,
Christian
