[QUOTE="DrMopar, post: 535152, member: 70303"] I remember reading somewhere that the thumbnail creation program isn't compatible/fully compatible with H.264 or NZ's implementation of it (sorry for being a bit vague, but it was a while ago) Try turning it off and see if this fixes your recording issues. I'm in a poor reception area and get quite a few dropped frames in recordings. Sometimes when using the skip button to jump over ads the playback stops and MP goes back to the recorded programs menu. I'm guessing that it's landing in some bad data after the ad skip, thinks its at end of file and quits playing. I've sometimes had a recording which won't play at all, which sounds similar to your issue (the file is there and I can play it in another player fine) I've found if I press play on the remote and then immediately skip forward 15 or 30 seconds it will play the file. Again my working hypothesis is some bad data caused by reception issues right at the start of the file. It might be worth trying this with your unplayable files. A better aerial is going up soon.....
