Why can't I start watching a show before it is done recording?

Every other DVR I have used you can watch the show from the beginning even it it is not over yet. Am I missing something. If this is not possible now is it something that is being worked on?

I’ve noticed the same. No problem watching live TV or recording, but once you start recording, the app (ios) will not let you watch the live stream. If I’m in the house I fire up the HDHomerun app and watch it that way. No solution for out the house yet though.

This is really troublesome for watching sports that I set to record, but get home in time to watch the game before it is completed. I end up having to wait for the end to view the game.

Running Plex on Nvidia Shield and trying to watch (from beginning) before recording is complete.

It’s coming, one of the plex employees has stated that in another thread I think back in July but it was a few months away, so hopefully it’ll be soon
