feature wish: option to play live recording instead of live-stream

[niwi-hh]

Here es an idea for an improvement for Swiss users of Zattoo Premium:

Currently Swiss users can't use live-tv out of Switzerland because of geo-blocking. But Zattoo is offering all premium customers to make records of all shows and watch them even while in foreign countries. This is also possible for shows currently running (live tv).

It would be great if your script would have the option to do the following:

If someone starts a tv station, the scripts would let Zattoo record the currently running show and then the script would start the record instead of the live stream.

I see a lot of advantages:

1. This way a Swiss user would have the same experience like watching live tv while traveling.
2. Swiss users wouldn't have to use a vpn-solution while traveling like now if they want to live-watch Zattoo.
3. Since no vpn-service would be necessary, the streams quality would be much better (hd)
4. More Swiss users would be willing to pay for Zattoo Premium, since the product would be of much more use.
5. Swiss users who often are in foreign countries, wouldn't need a vpn-solution. The they money they save might get invested in a better Zattoo subscription.
6. Currently some users might use the free version of Zattoo with your software. They would have more advantages switching to Zattoo Premium than currently. This would make your product much more valid from Zattoos point of view.
