[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1264574, member: 74879"] Thank you, I now better understand what you want to achieve. The recording functionality for TV shows is linked to the TV plugin, which stores its data in an own database. In essence MP2 adopted the existing MP1 TV service and integrated it into MP2 as a standard plugin without going through the (immense) task to also integrate the data management into the standard MP2 database. Correct. The key to the secret is to understand that each tuner in MediaPortal can have its own dedicated recording folder - they don't need to be the same for all. If your system info is correct you als have two analogue DVB-T tuners, and hopefully you don't need them both. [LIST] [*]Open the TV Configuration [LIST] [*]Remove all channel mappings that you may have set for this particular tuner [*]In Recordings go to the Folder tab and select the same tuner from the dropdown menu and enter the NAS path in the Recording folder field. Make sure that you don't click "SAme recording folder for all cards"! [*]Close the TV Configuration with OK [/LIST] [*]Restart the MP2 Server Service [/LIST] If you now take a look at your shares in the settings, you'll notice that a second recording folder [I]Recordings(2)[/I] has been automatically created. Verify that the share watcher is active. You can also trigger a manual import if you don't yet see your wtv files in your client. [/QUOTE]
