I gather from various discussions that XBMC is not able to record streaming video. This is quite frankly a profound finding for me. On my list of things to expect from a media center, this was definitely on the top three.
Why? Is it techically impossible? If XBMC is able to generate a video output, it surely must be able to save it to disk?
I also see answers along the line of: "Well, the developer who made the addon could choose to provide that." But recording a video stream seems to me to be so universally desirable, that I simply don't understand why XBMC can't do this. Any thoughts?
Best regards,
Steen
