Or how do you watch them if the cloud is out? At the moment I can watch recording if the "link" is down.

And how well does fast forward/reverse work? Local stuff it works very well, less controllable on streamed content. e.g. most program titles are approx 30 sec or one press of skip (3 on Star Trek), ad's often around 5 mins so can rack up "skips" but press play if shorter.

And echo expiry times. We have some recordings back over a year for programmes featuring family or of specific interest.
