Since changing to RC3 from 0.2.3.0 I can't record TV from my Sky Decoder (via SVHS/PVR150). I only use the decoder to provide one channel (Prime) so there's no IRBlaster stuff etc going on. Prime works fine on LiveTV . If I set it to record everything looks normal under Recorded TV (Show name, date, duration) but nothing actually records - The recording folder in explorer shows "programme name.ts 0bytes"

Yesterday I changed the record settings from .TS to .MPG for the PVR150 but no change. Strange too that the "0bytes" file generated is stil in .TS format?

If I'm watching Prime on live TV and I start recording it it seems to work fine though (and records in MPG).

Any ideas? Let me know if you need more info, my kids want this sorted

Cheers

EDIT: 46 views and no replies? Does this mean it's unfixable or the right person just hasn't viewed the post yet? UPDATE: Can confirm that if I am watching Prime then click <Record> - Current Programme, go to home screen and click <Stop> the programme records fine. So why won't it record when it is set to?

Prime recording problem is sorted. Here's the deal just uin case anyone else has a similar problem:

When I looked at the recording los this line line stood out "Controller: channel #2 tv : Prime Freq:0 Channel:4 Country:The Netherlands Tuner:Cable Video: SvhsInput1 " I couldn't work out where it was getting "The Netherlands" from since I had set New Zealand/Cable in the card tuning tab.

So here's what I did: Under TV Channels, right clicked on Prime ->Edit this Channel -> (Analog Tab, and there I saw "The Netherlands" set as the country - changed that to NZ and the input to Antenna (don't think that makes any difference though) and it was sorted, Prime records!
