This is (one of) the exact reasons that "Playback Groups" are added in version 0.19. I set 24 sec for football. After a tackle, when the camera shot changes, I press "->" to see the offense lining up for the next play. For baseball, I use 12 sec and "->" when the catcher catches the ball to see the pitcher wind up for the next pitch (two clicks for a foul ball). Eight seconds for basketball goes from a made basket to the point guard bringing the ball across half court. Two clicks between free throws and 2 minutes jump time skips the short commercial breaks and filler while they line up during a timeout. -- bjm _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
