Watch button feature

Keep the watch button where it is for future programs and clicking it would make sage tune in and display that program for you to watch when it starts.

I used to have direcTV and i miss this feature a lot. The record feature works but i want it to tune the program in when it comes on so i can watch it. Just recording it means i have to watch the time and might as well just tune in when it comes on. Also i don't need to record most programs if i'm there to watch them.

You do know that Sage records everything including LiveTV to hard drive? And if you are watching it live then just goto TVGuide or LiveTV and find a show to watch and click Watch Now button. Works the same way only with Timeshift functions.

I know it records the live, but my point is i don't wanna have to think about what time i have to change the channel for a program that i simply want to watch. I realize if i watch it it records the whole program to disc, but maybe the watch feature, if added, could automatically delete the file when you leave sage.

This request has been posted before and I don't think its implemented yet. And to clarify it, what he wants is a way to setup a reminder to watch a show right before it airs. Either a popup window that asks to change to that channel or it just change automatically.

It will have to be the end, The Real Folk Blues 1 & 2. Although I think it's too short, could've stretched it out a couple more episodes, or made that the movie instead. I also like the song, The Real Folk Blues by Yoko Kanno & the Seatbelts, one of my all time favs.

Yeah, the last two would be my fav, but I felt it was too breif like you said. The whole damn series left me wanting more, but I guess they felt it was complete.
