[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 678850, member: 82144"] No problem :) The top dropdown/combo box field allows you to select the tuner for which you want to set the timeshifting path. It does not mean that the IPTV source filter timeshift path is actually selected or that the analog path is not set... What you need to do with each of your analog tuners is to: 1. Select the tuner in the top field. 2. Check that the timeshift path is specified. If it isn't, browse and select a folder for the timeshifting files to be put into. The folder that you see/set is where the timeshifting files are put. They are *.ts files named like something like live9-0.ts.tsbuffer1.ts. When you try and start a TV channel, one of these files will be created in the folder that you specify. You need to: 1. Attempt to start viewing an analog channel. 2. Open windows explorer. 3. Navigate to the timeshifting folder. You might have to enable viewing hidden files and folders if the folder is like c:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\... on XP or c:\Program Data\Team MediaPortal\... for Vista or 7. Just google "enable view hidden files and folders" for instructions. 4. Locate the timeshifting file. It should be the most recently created ts file in the folder. 5. Attempt to play it. You will need an application that can play ts files like VLC. Do that for each of your analog tuners and let me know how you get on... :) [/QUOTE]
