[QUOTE="funkstar, post: 129203, member: 14311"] By default they are in My Documents/Media Portal/recordings.... or something like that anyway. You can change this to anything you like from the Setup application. They are saved as DVR-MS files. These are just MPEG-2 files with a wrapper used by Windows Media Center and the Microsoft recording engine that MediaPortal uses at the moment. There are tools out there than strip the wrapper and leave you with standard MPEG-2 files without a loss in quality. Have a search about, there are threads on here on the subject. As for quality settings there aren't any. As DVB channels are broadcast in either MPEG-2 anyway, there is no need to compress the video that comes in, the stream can just be saved straight to disk.
