I've read that the 921 is only going to pause for 10 minutes. I guess this is due to the fact that is over 1GB of space used. Kinda sucks. Quite a few times I have hit the pause at the beginning of a show because I wasn't ready to watch and took longer than 10 minutes. I guess you could set it up to record it then rewind to the beginning but just hitting pause is much easier.
