[QUOTE="Nippywiffle, post: 223650, member: 50964"] [I]I'm reposting this in general support, in case it was being missed in the other forum.[/I] TV-Server Version: 0.3 16907 MediaPortal Version: 2.3.0 16907 Windows Version: XP SP2 CPU Type: Athlon xp 3200+ HDD: 1 x SATA 500gb 1 x 200gb SATA Memory: 768MB Motherboard: Abit AN7 Motherboard Chipset: Nvidia Video Card: Nvidia Geforce 6800GT Video Card Driver: Latest Sound Card: Onboard nvidia Sound Card AC3: Optical Sound Card Driver: Latest 1. TV Card: Hauppauge hvr-1600 1. TV Card Type: Hybrid ATSC/QAM/Analog 1. TV Card Driver: Latest MPEG2 Video Codec: Nvidia Purevideo MPEG2 Audio Codec: Nvidia Purevideo Remote: Hauppauge Hi, I'm having a strange problem with the timeshift files, since upgrading to the current version SVN. (My previous version seemed to work, it was TVE3 and mediaportal 16622. When timeshifting HD channels now, they get to a certain point then the video stops. The audio continues a while, then stops too. Then mediaportal hangs, and I see a windows error appear, then disappear behind the gui. I assumed this was due to the timeshift file running out of space, so I tried changing the timeshift file settings undee "general settings" in the tvserver setup. I set it to 8192Mb, 1 file min, 8 files max, hoping this would give enough space for about an hour of timeshifting HD. I noticed when the timeshift file got created though, that the file created was 3.64GB - every time I stopped and started tv (HD and SD) the same size was created 3.64GB. I tried some other sizes and got the following totally random results: 5000 = 672mb 6000 = 1.58gb 7000 - 2.58gb 8000 = 3.45gb 16000 = 2.9gb 25000 = 3.28gb 32000 = 1.8gb 128000 = 3.2gb 512000 = 857mb 999999 - 3.32gb 999999999 = 2.57gb The only one that worked, was when I set it to 4096, and a file 3.81GB was created - which seemed correct. I also noticed, that a 2nd or 3rd timeshift file was not being created when the first got full. I tried setting the "min" number of files to 2, or 3, but there is always only 1 created. I also noticed, that below 4096MB, the file sizes seem to be correct. For example, I set it to make 100MB files, and it did. The smaller the file, the sooner the HD channel froze, while timeshifting. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening, and why it doesn't create files as defined, when above 4GB? Thanks for your help. Dan. [/QUOTE]
