The HDR-1100s keeps recording most of the time, so that you can see programs from the beginning (if you so wish).
Even with sound-damping feet under the unit, I keep hearing the HDD-head moving.
Is there a way to stop this type of (to me: useless) recording and have it ONLY record those programs that I want?

I don't think so but hopefully someone with more knowledge of Freesat will be able to confirm.

Check in the hidden settings:
Settings General Info Red Green Yellow Blue Green Yellow Blue

I have a memory of being able to disable buffer functions - this would also disable pause.

`It was not a hidden setting. Look in settings > general > recording > recording Buffer. (default is: On, set to Off to disable)
