I’m looking to replace my ReplayTV that gave up the ghost, and one of the features that I use most is “infinite pause”; essentially pausing live tv for as long as there is available disk space on the recording system (which will now likely a very large NAS). I want to find a DVR solution that will allow for that (use the available disk space AND free the space when live TV is resumed).
Does anyone know if Plex DVR allows for that?
Thanks
I don’t think so based on the fact that if you attempt to watch a “recording in progress” show it only buffers 90 minutes (for some reason). But i hope im wrong.

Well sort off, you set to delete. `
You can Record and resume and manually Delete or from advanced setting in scheduled recording set a timed delete.
You watch time shift recording on some devices

Did you ever find out if you can pause for extended period of time? I have a Nvdia Shield and try to pause for longer then 3 mins and it plays for about a minute then it goes back to menu and I lose everything. I also come from Replay TV & TiVo back in the day and miss this.
