[QUOTE="mruane, post: 187777, member: 21044"] Guys, I have been reviewing an issue I have with MP lately, which you may be able to help with. In my configuration, I use %Title% as part of the recording filename. Looking over the EPG data from Freeview, I notice a number of entries that have long title content reduced by the addition of ellipses i.e. "..." in the "Title" field. On two separate occasions, I have failed recordings and the log file indicates that TVE3 could not create the recording file. In both cases, the directory was created but no recording file was created. So I am wondering if the ellipses has actually been included in the filename construction routines and this is what is causing this error i.e. trying to create a filename that contains "..." within the filename. Does anyone else use %title% as part of the recording filename and if so have you experienced the failure of a recording to be saved and could the cause be the use of ellipses in the EPG program "Title" by Freeview. I have currently removed the program %title% from the filename as a work around. Cheers Mike [/QUOTE]
