[QUOTE="enstardavid, post: 37295, member: 18414"] [b]Area[/b]: Media Portal Program [b]Synopsis:[/b]: I am trying to record TV -> save to disc -> VCD or DVD I think I have figured out how to Record TV (a bit hit and miss as I have not yet found any 'words' on how-to) but I cannot find the saved files. In the Setup | Television | Recording there is a checkbox that says [x] [i]Add recordings to movie database[/i] but there is nowhere to put a path to save the TV recording to. In the Television Wizard [5/6] PVR settings it says "[i]Recorded TV Programs storage location is configured here, ..." [/i]but there is no interface. In the 'Console' there is an entry for 'Recorded TV' - and I can see a series of folders and dated files - all titled "Unknown". Q1.) Hopefully I am just missing something really obvious - can anyone say how to specify where recorded TV is stored or if it is a default location - where is that? I really need it to be on a separate drive. Q2.) I was expecting the stored TV program to be an mpg file (true?) so I was planning on converting it to a vcd using VCDEasy - if necessary passing it through TMPG to normalize the file. Is this a sound plan? Is there an easier/better/buit-in way to do this. Thanks for any assistance.
