[QUOTE="nick8571, post: 879745, member: 126449"] Yes, I can certainly do that, but what exactly am I looking for in the "manual control" screen? I don't see anything that will explicitly tell me when the TS packet count stops increasing, unless you're referring to the "state" column... am I looking in the right place? I can already pinpoint the exact times at which TsWriter previously stopped writing, by adding the duration of the (truncated) files to the scheduled start time as per TsWriter.log... there's nothing in the MP logs to indicate anything unusual at those points (I'm now going through the Windows event viewer more in hope than expectation). MediaPortal itself thinks it's still recording beyond the failure points - the red indicator continues pulsing, "Breakfast" shows up under "Active Recordings," and the only indication that anything's wrong is that the filesize is not increasing. FWIW the scheduled recording this morning stopped after 1hr 18mins 18 secs (4.322 GB filesize) - very similar to the day before yesterday, but it's been pretty random up until now, so I don't think it's anything more than a coincidence. I did originally try to set BBC1 HD to record all night, but the "Until manual stop" option seems to be unavailable, and it only allows you to record specific shows (which I've done already without finding out anything useful). Needless to say, nothing of any note in the log files at 07:15 or thereabouts, when TsWriter decided it wasn't going to play anymore... :( [/QUOTE]
