That's one of the reasons why I prefer to let the XYL hog the Toppy
whilst I still use my desktop PC and a laptop to record TV programmes.
The issue of deciding whether it's worth keeping a recording of a new
programme or not can be more accurately decided by being able to jump
instantly along the time bar in the media player of choice and get
more glimpses per minute of reviewing time. It's a damn sight faster
than using the Toppy (and, most probably, any other domestic DVR).
Also, when I'm recording repeats of stuff I already have in the hope
of capturing a less vandalised version, I can swiftly jump to the end
credits (the region of gross vandalism) and decide whether it's "A
Keeper" or just one for the bit bucket.
