Having just recently enabled undelete, I'm now noticing that deleting files from my USB drive takes a lot longer than before (via the WebIF at least, I've not yet tried it via the user interface on the TV). It seems that this is because the delete operation is moving the file to the dustbin on the main HDD. I can imagine it might be even more problematic if you have a network drive set up to look like a USB drive on the Humax, as it might try to upload the file over the network to the dustbin on the main HDD, potentially an even more time-consuming operation. Is there any way to disable undelete for files on a USB drive?
Personally I use my USB as a place for recordings to go before they die e.g. the wife and I have watched the programme together, and she wants rid of it from My Video but I want to hang on to it for a while, maybe to re-watch it, maybe to move it off the box. In that context I don't mind too much if I accidentally delete a recording on the USB drive - for me the annoyance of the time it takes to copy it back to the main HDD outweighs the benefit gained in the exception case being able to retrieve an inadvertently deleted, but already watched, recording. But I can imagine that other people use the capability in a different way and would prefer to be able to retain the functionality, so some kind of configuration switch would be handy, if technically feasible.
