I watched Doctor Who half way through last night. I went out pressed record on my digital recorder. I have now come to watch the last bit of it and the whole program has been recorded. Some strange kind of twisted magic going on, I fear.

PVRs will buffer whatever you are watching (variable time, depending on the model, but some buffer an hour or so). And some PVRs also record everything in the buffer if you press record! 🙂 A good thing.

Don't you know the premise of the show: Dr. Who sensed your desire and time-traveled back to the beginning of the episode and pushed "REC." The rest, my friend, is this new dimension we have found ourselves in.

I knew some of what you watched was buffered, but didn't realise the entire program was. That's pretty useful. Plenty of times I've been watching something and thought 'I wish I'd recorded this for future reference.' Now I know... Cheers
