    Hi!

    If I deleted (accidentally or on purpose, changing the settings for creating thumbnails) thumbnails of recorded shows, how do I create them?

    I don't think that MP1 has any way of batch-creating thumbnails for recorded TV or video. :(

    You can create them one at a time ("Context" menu in "Video" or "Recorded TV"), but that is cumbersome and time consuming of you have a lot to create. Sounds like we need a talented MP1 developer to add this function in MP 1.26. :D

    Today, the thumbs were created by themselves, it remains to learn how to force this event. :)
    If thumbnails are enabled in "TV Server Config", TV Server creates the recording thumbnail on completion of the recording. So they naturally accumulate as you build up a library of recordings. :)

    But if you delete all of the accumulated thumbs, I am not aware of any way of forcing TVServer or MP to re-create them. :(

    I currently have two Quatros running, one connect, one duo using OTA antennae, mostly UHF fringe area, mostly cat5 local network. Hauppauge card retired long ago. I have also retired very early SD units, the Quatros seem to work much better than the older units. Go to SD's support website and download and install the windows...

    TV Server plugins are listed on this page, and "EPG Cleaner" can be downloaded from this page. Note: I don't know what bitness the plugin has. It might be 32-bit, or it might be "any cpu". The plugin is not listed by the "MP Extensions" tool, so I don't know whether it has been tested with the most-recent MP releases. -- from...
