Hi,

This is just some crazy idea i am thinking about while trying to figure out how to play MPEG TS recordings with mplayer. Really this is not full timeshift solution and never be, player is just a player but supporting growing file may be very useful.
I decided to try with adding one function to stream_file.c which will handle 
pipe://
 urls and just use different fill_buffer function which indefinitely reads from file but process events to avoid hangs.
Just wondetng what other think about this solution.

Thanks
