Sorry, missed your log files until now. First impressions are interesting. Continuities start at 9:38 PM on 18 October. At that time you have 3 active recordings: tuner 3 - SBS ONE HD 8:01 PM-9:29 PM Sunshine [your post record setting is 30 minutes, so this actually stops at 9:59 PM] tuner 4 - TEN HD 8:09 PM-10:42 PM The Wrong...

Hello Are the recordings also not listed in the MediaPortal front end unless you manually import them? Do you move the recordings at any stage? Does the TV service (TVservice.exe) have the necessary permissions to read and write to the network share? What happens if you try recording to a local drive (recommended!)?

Hi mm Thanks for your quick reply, I did a system restore back to before the 15th and it works now(y) I did some intel updates for the NUC on that date so I guess that might have been the issue. It doesn't always pay to update for the sake of updating:p Best to leave well enough alone ;) Thanks again..

On the DefaultWIdeHD skin there is a menu that pops out from the left in certain situations. Not overly concerned. Or wasn't. Found what I call a flaw.

Yes, that Windows Update brought the pc down for a few days. I couldn't get it to boot. Eventually I got it to boot but the video and audio drivers were hosed.

Just keep in mind that the eHome transceiver can only be used by one program at a time. Since IRSS needs to control the blaster, IRSS also has to control the receiver. That means HID and any other remote settings must be disabled in MediaPortal Configuration.
