[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1066890, member: 82144"] I think larger files would take longer to create/allocate (though I could be wrong)... and yes, smaller files would lead to more overhead in switching files. Primarily the way to increase the buffer size is to increase <minimum> (and <maximum>). The max <minimum> value is 100. 100 x 256 MB = 25600 MB = ~25 GB = normal buffer size 10 Mb/s = 1.25 MB/s 25600 / 1.25 = 20480 seconds / 60 = 341.33 minutes / 60 = 5.688 hours. If you really need a buffer which is longer than 5.6 hours (or whatever the calculation gives for your source bitrate) then by all means go ahead and bump the file size. Otherwise I suggest just increase <minimum>. I note default <minimum> and <filesize> yields 20 minutes... which for many people is enough. mm [/QUOTE]
