The motorola box from comcast, at least w/ the tv quide software (in some areas it apparently comes with Microsoft software that is completely different), does both of those things. If you're recording a show and you get home in the middle, hit the dvr button and watch the show as it records, no problem, if you exit or stop the playback aprtway through, when you go back, it starts from the same spot you left off, a couple times I'm noticed it hasn't, but I think it was due to the box resetting after a power outage.
