Ah, I did not see this (there are a lot of menus, but options are good).  I
will see how much difference it makes (part of the reason I got a
dual-core).  I assume you mean you run commflagging while still recording? 
I figured eventually I would try that, but I wanted to make sure I didn't
have some system problem this was revealing.

Standard OSD in GB-PVR had this - it was pretty nice.  I'm sure it's a
simple as borrowing the code from the cutlist OSD ;)  Seriously, I can live
without.  It was a good graphical representation of how much of my life I
was taking back, though.

I saw that, but wasn't sure if it referred to not flagging commercial breaks
that long or what.  The other is a good tip, also.

Thanks
