Post by srjones1985 »

My apologies if this has been previously covered but are there plans to add this feature to Roku?

Roku typically does not permit that for live content as their handling of ts streams and mpeg2 is #%%#$%. A different dvr might "trick" it with hls streams that typically must be delayed by about 30 seconds (I personally preferred 90 seconds when doing so but it is possible for as low as 15 with a beefier server that takes no time to transcode ).

Maybe. We have a roadmap item that would work when DVR is present.
