Hi

Would it be possible to add a option to record direct to mpg format. The frontend is excellent and keeps getting better, being able to record direct to mpg would make it perfect IMHO.

Cheers :lol:

i'm not sure if this is the right answer, but i think you're supposed to be able to provide your own compressors, such as mpeg, mpeg2, etc

    a lot has been said about this topic
    so please do a search next time
    anyway here's the answer
    MP uses the streambuffer engine for timeshifting & recording
    this engine records to the dvr-ms format which is a normal MPEG2 file
    with some an extended header
    There are programs which can convert an dvr-ms file to .mpg
    I think you can find those on xpmce.com
    and yes we hope to add transcoding in the future so you can
    convert your movie to mpg or xvid or.... after recording
