Once upon a time Uwe Weissbach shaped the electrons to say...

>(don't laugh -it's for my son...)
>to my VHS recorder I have to wait everytime

>(maybe adjusting the VHS tape between them etc.)

It's useful for other attemps too.

On an old VCR one rewinds the tape, and could play
8h of video without using the RC again.
With VDR users are forced to use the RC after each recording replay.
A
"Play all today records" would be nice.
(remember: There are at least two kind of viewers:
The "collectors" and the "time shifters".
A collector collect episodes ands saves them on tape or somewhere else.
The  timeshifter just records to tiem shift and deletes the recordings
instantly after viewing them.)



Or:
Make your own TV program(s)! (for the kids?)

At 15:00 Lukas, the speaking locomobile
   15:30 "Die Sendung mit der Maus".
   16:00 End of PCP  (Private Childrens Programm)


Or
"Zapp" between the recordings like between programms.

That's an other view of "replay".



If i'd time....
