For hdd users this might be no problem. For users who use USB sticks for the timeshift data it's not so good...

- Activate automatic timeshift: yes/no
- Automatic timeshift start delay: 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 300 seconds
- show warning on ending timeshift: yes/no
- Timeshift action on zap: Ask, Save and end, Save and record, Dump
- End Timeshift during recording: yes/no
- use timeshift seekbar during timeshift: yes/no
- Buffer timeshift for: 1 to 999 hours selectable
- Dump timeshift buffer on zap: yes/no
The options asked on timeshift end are:
- End and do not save
- End, save and continue recording
- End and save as recording
- Cancel (Do not end)
I think there are more options if the timeshift buffer already contains complete broadcasts.
That's probably the same in all oe-a images and as far as I remember that was one of the last actual enhancements to appear first in OpenPLi or at least it was backported to OpenPLi quite in time.
So what would the added benefit of a plugin be?
Oh, and last but not least:
Why do I have to tell you?
All I did for this post was looking at what the GUI tells me ... and it tells everybody the same ...

Well, it's all open source, OpenPLi is free to merge ...
However, there must have been some reason why I switched all boxes from OpenPLi to OpenATV.
Anyways, even on OpenPLi those plugin based timeshift "solutions" aren't the way to go.
They barely worked at all and used ugly workarounds, because there was no TimeShift-API to E2 but only a Recording-API, so it was all done using ugly special recordings, keyboard intercepts and so on.
I remember sound gaps at the end of programmes and other quirks.

That sounds plausible. On an ext4 filesystem, deletion of large files is no problem, it's finished within a few tenths of a second. But on other file systems, like ext2, ext3 and fat, deletion of large files can take ages.

Littlesat, do think it's much work to implement the recording time limitation for timeshifting in enigma2? If we have that, I guess there is no longer any reason to use the external plugin?

Please be aware that there are no OE-A images.
As the name suggests all OE-A members do, is maintaining a common OE-environment.
There is no common E2 and all teams build their own images. Some are based on PLi, like XTA, and some are based on ViX, like ATV, although all indeed use the OE-A OE-GiT.

As far I know we already have that....
Could you point me in the direction of where that setting is located in the menu?

Implementing a limit would be possible, but what should happen when it is reached. Delete old file and start new one. Not nice, because timeshift starts at 0. Using 2 files make the problem with switching between the files when you seek back. And so on. So no simple and nice solution.
I have a solution in mind but no time to implement it ...

But unfortunately it's only included in the latest kernel versions (I'm not quite sure whether it's really released. I saw these patches on ext4 dev list).

With pts that can "split" on events in some cases it starts two recordings at once... splittimg timeshift recordings on events is the only thing the timeshift build in openpli does not offer. Limiting timeshift on specific times is a limitation which I suggest we should not do...

Well, that common "oe-a" env and git makes them "oe-a images" (Note that images is the plural of image ).Please be aware that there are no OE-A images.
As the name suggests all OE-A members do, is maintaining a common OE-environment.
There is no common E2 and all teams build their own images. Some are based on PLi, like XTA, and some are based on ViX, like ATV, although all indeed use the OE-A OE-GiT.
Of course I was aware that they are not identical because else there could as well be just one common oe-a image.
But that there are actually images using the oe-a git while still using openpli-e2 is indeed new to me as well as good and interesting to know.
