I tuned off the preview window but no luck.  It still kills recordings in
progess when I click on "watch recordings".

I also noticed if I'm watching a pre-recorded show and while I'm viewing it
a scheduled show starts to record that it will work fine.  However as soon
as the pre-recorded show I'm watching is done and it kicks me back to the
"watch recordings" menu listing all the recordings, the current recording in
progress gets killed and stops imediately.

I may just try CVS again.  Or is there anyway of knowing how long till 0.15
comes out?

Thanks
