Help! Time shifting in 3.5

[ArcticWhite]

I am looking for a way to always have time shifting on, especially when not watching live tv (i.e. watching a recording). I could find it in 3.4, but not in 3.5.

Right now, I loose my time shift buffer every time I go to the beyond tv menu . This forces me to go through the extra hassle of setting what I am watching to record, before I go anywhere in the menus. If there is something in the buffer I want to watch (I set my buffer big enough for hours of recording) I am forced to watch it before watching any of my recordings. It would be a lot more user friendly (and require a lot less user effort) if the buffer ran all the time, when in menus or even when the viewscape is shut down.

My old dishplayer 7200 had this functionality, and it appears older versions of Beyond TV had this functionality, I can't see why snapstream would want to remove a feature like that. HUGE step back in functionality.
