I'm back... hope it is ok to continue my old thread. Work and a messy private life has prevented me from examining my problems in greater detail, however, even though I now have set one card to only record analog and the other to only record digital channels I still get the same problem from...

Hi again! Been trying some more to reproduce the erroneous behavior under controlled forms but failed so I can still not say exactly how to recreate it. Seems like it happens randomly when recording from two sources at the same time and it is always an analog (hauppauge?) tuner that refuses to...

Ah, the log-file, can attach it if you would like but I am not sure whether it will help or not. Your reasoning makes a lot of sense and I was thinking in the same way when I started manual testing today with different scenarios to see what might trigger this behavior. However, what I has...

Sorry to be a bother but it did not work... What seems to be the problem is this situation (I am not sure but this is the only common denominator I have found with the failings and lockup of one tunercard): I have two recordings running, one analog (5) and one digital (6). Both recordings end...

No problems, glad I could be of some use :) Only hope my recordings will work the coming days.

Ah, now we are talking... In Directshow Filters there are 16 Hauppauge and 4 MainConcept Filters but if we only look for the keyword audio/video/encoder they are: MainConcept (HCW) Layer II Audio Encoder MainConcept (HCW) MPEG-2 Video Encoder under Audio Compressors there is only one...

Hi Sure, no problems... First, DirectShow filters there is only one: MainConcept (MCE) MPEG Encoder and that is actually the only one I can find that fulfills your requirements. Please get back if you need more information.

Hi again! Thank you very much for all your help. To be honest it did not quite work out as smoothly as in your instructions (it never does) but you immediately put me on the right track. I will write some here both so you know how it all went and also if someone else gets into similar problems...

Hi mm Thanks for your quick reply, yep those logs are long, did not want to remove anything though since I was not sure what could be needed... First, the recording of "Mord i sinnet" worked fine, all 5 hours of the recording (thats when I stopped it) Second, was not sure whether I had...

I have finally managed to get the time to setup my system and the last days I have been testing it rigorously to see how it works, and it works great until suddenly... What seems to happen is that suddenly one recording does not stop, it keeps on going and going and the only way to stop it is...

Think this machine looks like a promising replacement for my EB1012 but I am a bit worried about its graphic performance. Has anyone out here tested this machine with mediaportal and can give a short review on how it works?

Hello! Haven't had much time to watch my recordings but at least I have tried recording a lot and finally it seems to work and what I have seen so far looks good. Once again a big thank you for all your help.

Hello again! Been busy again but finally managed to make some tests, thought I should update in case you have some more bright ideas. mm1352000: I tried to watch TV with my old setup and the pictures freezes after anything from a couple of seconds to a few minutes, normally shorter time, do not...

mm1352000, big thanks for your help, I will continue to investigate as soon as I have some time over, tried with a different computer but have not made it work yet... naibaf7, great work, I will try your installation as soon as I can and see if it solves my problem. And, if it does not, I...

Hello again! Tonight I finally managed to get one test through. First I had a lot of problems with mediaportal trying but not succeeding to start a recording. There where errors in tv.log but nothing in error.log. I have attached this as log2.zip if it can be of any use solving my problem...
