[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1089357, member: 82144"] Hmmmm, interesting... Write to disk. No codecs... though encoders (ie. the MPEG encoders on your tuners) can make a difference so it is interesting you only have this problem with the ATI tuner. Technically recordings and live TV are played in a very similar way, so unless you've tested the recordings in an alternative player (ie. not MediaPortal) there is a chance it would be a playback codec issue. Mmmm, yes. From my perspective the server logs are saying that both video and audio are being delivered by the tuner. Whether the audio is okay (ie. not silent, playable etc.) is unknown - not something I can determine from logs. On the client side it does look like audio is not being rendered (played)... but I don't think this really narrows the problem in any way. My understanding is that symptom could be caused by a source (ie. tuner encoder), splitter (ie. TsReader) or codec issue. Could you please post a short recording (~15 MB) that doesn't play audio and I'll see if deeper analysis reveals anything. Also as above, please make sure you try the recordings in some other player (VLC, mplayer, MPC HC, XBMC... lots of free choices).
