Hi Elliottmc, Thanks a lot for the reply. I just found out that the path was directed to my documents/videos folder and not my other drives video folder. After changing stuff shows up straight away. Thanks again!

MP1 MP2 Only basic home menu (1 Viewer) DE
BTW - not sure if lmremote works with tvserver blasting, there is a plugin but I've never tried it and it is probably out of date. I just use lmremote to blast my audio receiver for Vol+/Vol-/Power.

I should clarify that the integrated GPU in the AMD E-350 is a 6310, not a 61xx. The client boxes are streaming live TV from a Mediaportal server which is grabbing video from an HD-PVR hooked to my cable boxes. The cable boxes are configured to output 1080i over component video. I had 2 clients working fine, but a third was having...

Totally bizarre. I reinstalled 1.3.0 RC from scratch, again, with the Custom Grabber and my system is running flawlessly again and has done now over the long weekend. I am going to leave my system alone now - cannot work out whether it is 1.3.0 final or the latest verision of the Custom Grabber that is causing the problem.

Cool thing about Comskip Monitored is that you can have comskip not run on certain channels by creating a channel group named "No Comskip". This is useful if like me you record a lot of stuff on channels that show no commercials like PBS.

I would assume yes. As far as I know the video signal of HDMI and DVI are identical. Maybe you can connect a laptop or some other device for testing. As I wrote I am still using the same 10m DVI cable right now but my new HTPC does not produce the issue.

Hi, I previously looked into the various free options for editing anything I recorded for keeping - i.e. editing all the padding and adverts out. I struggled to find anything that did everything I wanted: 1. Was free. 2. Corrected any errors in the stream. 3. Preserved the subtitles. 4. Allowed frame accurate cutting. Thus...
