Well Klaus,

Can't argue with you on that point but there is.
You didn't saw the need to integrate auto sat/transponder search neither.

Not only computer users would love to control a VDR box and there are
enough people who hardly can operate a timed video recording on a
analog video recorder.

The free disk space stays the problem , even when the timer is set to 2 or 3
hours but as written in my previous message.. a free disk space message
on the main EPG screen telling how much time there's left on the
harddisk(s).
Everyone knows the time format but a percentage as text or bar graph
is something else.

But: These are just some notes to make VDR more...... user friendly.
I'll end this topic now.
