I have 4GB in my pc and am running XP 32bit so this is about my limit. I have created a 1GB ram disk. I suppose I could make it 2GB - havent tried that yet. I see in the MP config that the time shift buffer can be set to point at any drive. So I set mine to point at the root of my R: drive (the ramdisk). I have a TV card with 6 tuners on it . I only plan on using the 2 DVB-T and 2 DVB-S tuners. The anlogue tuners sound too much like hard work so I wont be using them. So I have 4 sources. In the MP TV config program the time shift buffer has a number of things one can set. Min files, Max files, Size of files. In my setup resumably I dont need more than 4 files as I have no more than 4 sources and then only if I want to time shift 4 channels at once???????? So should I set say Min files 4 Max files 4 Size of files 256MB To give 1GB usage????? I dont really use the time shift function at all (I never pause live video etc) but if I dont use the ram disk then my pc makes a serious din. Have been having some serious crashes of late and am trying to work out how to set this stuff up. After a crash I have never seen more than 100MB of files in the R: drive. I cant find any info about best settings for this. I have set my files to be recorded to hard disk when I actually want a recording - I just put ear defenders on. Kev . [/QUOTE]
