kiwijunglist,
Thanks for responding but no, the recording + timeshifting directories were still correct. I even clicked the "make all tuners use the same directory" button and it still didn't work.
I ended up reinstalling the server and that fixed it. That is a painful process. It's been too long since I setup 1.2.3. Figuring...

Under Music settings in MediaPortal I found an option to automatically shuffle playlist on load. Does this setting also applies to Video playlists? I created one inside MP UI and I see "m3u" was generated for it listing video files but each time I load it it always plays videos in the same order.
So does...

Just switched back to MP from MCE. Noticing a "banding" interference now, that I didnt seem to notice under MCE. I have an example file but for some reason I cant take a screen shot (or isolate a frame) from a dvr-ms file.

"Check episode of already recorded programs to prevent duplicate recordings..."- how does this work?
DE
This would interest me as well. Also, I see two options for detecting duplicates:
Episode Title
Episode Number
The episode title is in my experience often duplicated, as the sender does not always differentiate between the parts of a two-part episode.
The episode number is also not unique, unless it is combined with the season (de...

If you've done this then you need to report this to the Argus people.
The TV plugin is responsible for deleting the recordings. Argus installs a replacement for the MP TV plugin. Therefore Argus is responsible for the delete behaviour. Please forward the report to Argus developers. :)

I remember it used to work at some point. I think I'll have to check if it is possile to map first "stop live tv" and then "sleep pc" both to poewr button on my remote, it would be nicer than seeing splash screen everytime after resume.
Has anyone every noticed that digital, erratic video and audio noise?

you may be able to solve this by just moving the cables a little bit further away from each other.
If not, you may need to get a better quality Svhs cable. Your shielding may be faulty on that one.

As mm said, it seems to be some combination of how the bios/Windows/drivers/hardware interact at startup. You could try playing with the bios USB settings and the USB power settings in Windows.
