That's why installing divx and xvid codecs only is a good idea.
But then you install powerdvd/windvd, more codecs.
And finally roxio/nero and another bunch of codecs.
But usually these mainstream ones are ok, and do not give any problems.
After that lot what other codecs would you want.

i recomend you leave it on. But just put 1 minute for the timeshifting ammount. I got this weird buffer error when i turned it off.
I recomend you defrag your drive. Should speed it up much.

using the Configuration.exe you can set the location, where MP looks for your files:
Movies -> Movie Folders
Music -> Music Folders
Picture -> Picture Folders
Press the "Add" button in every dialog and navigate to the folder where you have your music, pictures, movies.
Then MP will find them.

If it is trying too write a divx file, that would cause major headache for your cpu.
When you say you have tried changing it, can you be more specific about where you are trying to alter the setting, ie MPsetup\tv or is it elsewhere.
ps is this option set in the cards own software.

Tried the latest svn and problem remains. Thanks anyway.
As suggested by Paranoid Delusion, I'll use Blue Two and see what'd happen.
Per FlipGer, I did see in the log that the failure has somoething to do with VMR9. I'll fina a newer PC and try R3 on it.
Thanks to you all.
