Feature requests from a new user

[APillowOfClouds]

I switched to Sage a few weeks ago and mostly I love it. But a few real basic things that should b easy to include in a future version:

• Warn immediately of conflict w/popup when scheduling and offer to go to the conflict resolution screen
• Allow easy moving of recordings when Sage is running - BTV does this as a (scheduled) file convert as another poster has just suggested
• Allow specification of "keep at LEAST" for favorites
• Allow easy switching between grouping shows by series vs. listing in order recorded - currently this takes a lot of clicking and it's nice to be able to see at a glance what was just recorded today
• When playing a recording that's been watched before, ask if user wants to start from beginning or resume
• Have an "import" screen where I can give a generic title and description and import a set of shows into my recordings section (not the media library). This would make it easier to recover when a wiz.bin gets lost/corrupted/snarfed by user error, and would also allow me to do things like grabbing shows from my previous DVR software easily and also putting vids of my family in the "recorded shows" list, something I prefer to the media section for some things.

Is there an official request thread? If so I'll copy this over there.

you need to send sage support an email with these requests. in theory, they don't read the board for requests.

This one is a biggie that quite frankly I don't understand why it has not been executed. I have been asking (officially) every 6 months or so.
