Is there a way to record tv programs 'on the fly' into a smaller sized file format, say divx? I am finding that the default recordings are a few GB at a time.
If a dvb transmission, then the file is exactly the same size as recording.
The only solution i know of is MCEBuddy, which can convert your recordings after they have finished, but you need a reasonable dual core processor to use.
@CyberSimian As I have just posted in the MP2 subforum I will stay with MP1 for the time being. Many thanks for all your very informative and detailed responses. I will take your advice and monitor the Scheduled recordings list for the discrepancies you have described.
Cheers.

Everything is back to normal, so...

My server has a 2.5Gbps port and the 10Gbps card I added, so I've connected the HD Homerun directly to the 2.5G port, and its solved the problem, I can now copy large multiple files to the server and not suffer with picture issues.

That was it! :)
I had to set it to "Maintain display scaling". I think it was set to "Maintain Aspect Ratio", which added black bars to MediaPortal when playing videos that didn't conform to a strict 16:9 ratio, I suppose.
Thanks to everyone for the patience and help, I can finally enjoy videos fully.
