[VU+ Duo] Timeshift/recording question

[XRD]

Hi all, been reading around about timeshift so apologies if I have missed it - ok, here goes... I start watching a film that starts at 9pm. At about 9.10pm, I decide I want to record the whole movie (from start to finish, so including those 10 minutes that I've already watched). What settings do I need to change in timeshift/recordings to have this behaviour?

Thanks

Just press the record button on ur remote and i think its record or save current event off the top of my head

The options I get presented to me are...

1. add recording (stop after current event)
2. add recording (indefinitely)
3. add recording (enter recording duration)
4. add recording (enter recording endtime)
5. Timeshift save recording (stop after current event)
6. Timeshift save recording (Select event)
7. don't record

...so from that, I would guess it's either option 1 or 5?

Yes, option 5 is the one you want.

Ok... I must be doing something wrong here. I put on option 5 (Timeshift save recording (stop after current event)), roughly 60 minutes into the Chelsea - Spurs match. At 90 minutes, I changed channel and was asked to 'save movie to harddisk'. However it literally saved a file of 0minutes and 0seconds! Surely I should have half an hour at least?

My timeshift settings are:

Location: /hdd/timeshift
Permanent Timeshift Enable: yes
Permanent Timeshift Max Events: 05
Permanent Timeshift Max Length: 180
Permanent Timeshift Start Delay: 005
Timeshift-Save Action on zap: Ask user
Stop timeshift while recording?: no
Show PTS Inforbar while timeshifting?: yes
