Where get temporary files stored?

Hi there,
second question ;-)

It is great to see, that timeshifting works so well with DVB-C and SMPlayer, in contrast to that other popular player ;)

I just wonder, when using timeshift, where do get the temporary files stored on the harddrive?

I even used lsof to find out, but I do not see, where SMPlayer / mpv stores the timeshift files....

Software:
Linux kernel 4.13
SMPLayer 17.11.0
mpv 0.25.0

There's no support for timeshift in SMPlayer... I guess that's done by mpv, however I can't find anything regarding timeshift in the mpv manual. Maybe it's cached in memory.

Yes, maybe.
I´ll try again and pause for some time and look at xosview and see if memory fills ;)
