Question STV Client remember last channel, etc?

Two questions about STV Client (trying this on both a nettop and HD300)...

1) Can STV Client default to starting in LiveTV? I get the feeling there is some kind of startup switch to do this, but how on the HD300?

2) Can STV Client remember the last tuned live tv channel when restarting? Like a STB does? Seems that whenever I power-on the HD300 (and nettop), Live TV defaults to grabbing a currently-in-use tuner (tuning to what another live tv stream is watching). I see some reasoning for this technically, but from a usability standpoint it might not go over as well.

Thanks,
AJ

The only thing I know of is the plugin that remembers the last guide position. You may want to go to the v7 customization section and request that feature.

OK, I found a follow-on question to this...

Is there a command/keystroke to make the LiveTV get to the "end" of the program -- so it is "current"?

I found that when I turned on the HD300 it tuned to the same station I was watching on the STV Server (as previously identified and now expected), but it was about 3-4min behind "live". I only noticed at first, because I recognized the portion of the program I had been watching and then saw the bar at the bottom was not all the way to the end.

I tried "Skip Forward", but that didn't seem to work. Maybe a double-skip-forward or something?

So really two (sub-) questions:
1) When pressing "Live TV" on a STV Client (HD300), can it be set to always start "current"?
2) Is there a command/keypress to skip-to-current/live anyway?

Thanks again,
AJ

EDIT: I see the "Jump to End" in the menu, but I'm not entirely sure that is doing what I want when watching a Live stream. And pressing it a second time does what? Go back to the beginning of the program?
