Windows 7, Gotham b4. Yes, I read the wiki.
I have a problem where if I pause too long during a live stream (more than a couple minutes), the connection will drop. I also don't like it when I go back to re-watch something earlier in a program and everything has to re-buffer. XBMC should "remember" it, especially if the server is crappy. I thought that I could solve this with the Cache 0 fix, which I thought changed the buffer from something fickle into something more permanent by saving a stream onto my hard drive.
So far, though, I seem to be having the same problems. If I try to hop around from place to place in a stream, even something I've watched almost all the way through, the connection drops. I tried to activate it with two different add-ons (I don't know how to edit "advancedsettings.xml")
Also, my HTPC has Windows 7 with the OS and programs on an SSD and media on an HDD. How can I make sure the cache is on the HDD and NOT the SSD?
Lastly, if I view a stream and the entire program is cached, can I extract the file after the fact, name it, and save it permanently, dvr style?
