Ok, the end goal is to do a bit of post processing with handbrake and then copy the newly created .mp4 to a network share.

I've found several scripts which would fit the bill and with a bit of modification, they work great for renaming and post processing to .mp4. Got all that working fine.

The copy part has me stumped. For the life of me, I can't get it to copy the file to the network share.

Just to eliminate all the variables, I made a completely stripped down PostProcessing.bat with just the copy command and a little logging so i could track it. I got it to work form the command line, but it doesn't work from the post processing after recording a file. The output from the log file works fine in cmd too, so I think it's right.

What am I doing wrong?


PostProcessing.bat

@ECHO on
ECHO postprocessing started on %date% %time% >> postprocessing.log

set NSHelper=C:\Progra~1\NPVR\NScriptHelper.exe

ECHO xcopy "%~f1" "Z:\Movies-Video-DVDs\Recorded_TV" >> postprocessing.log

xcopy "%~f1" "Z:\Movies-Video-DVDs\Recorded_TV"

ECHO Post Processing finished on %date% %time% >> postprocessing.log

:end
echo Finished.

I have tried and tried to edit my index.htm file to work to launch NPVR from a usb stick but can't get it to work. Everything works if I navigate from the PCH Start menu to the folder on the stick and click the NPVR.html file, but I can't get it to automatically start from the index file like I did when I was using a network share.

Does anyone have a working index.htm file that works with a USB launch? I can edit it to my liking (I think) as long as I have something to start with.

I'm having trouble with the voice track on digital stations. On one I can manually select track 2, (which is a pain) and the volume is OK.
On another station selecting track 2 kills all audio.
I was using AC3 filter but changed to Hauppage AC3 with no effect. "use only mapped" is checked.

Any ideas?

I'm deciding between a Colossus and DCR 2650. At this point, the Colossus is overall less expensive ($2/mo cablecard plus $49 install fee for the DCR) at the cost of one tuner and tying up the STB during recording. The two devices are essentially the same price at the moment. Copy freely is not an issue on my cable system, at least for now.

I can live with the STB issue and a single tuner, but I'm not sure if the 9500GT video card can handle the h.264 recordings of the Colossus. I know it can handle HD MPEG2 that the DCR would output.

So, can anyone confirm (more or less) that the 9500GT can/should handle h.264 and which decoder would be "best" for this. (Need DXVA as I understand for good h.264.)

TIA.

I have recently started using the latest HDPVR beta drivers and they seem to be working very well and I have been able to set my STB to output the raw feed for the first time. I now have a problem with NPVR using the resolution of the first channel tuned resulting in using the wrong bit rates.

Here is the recording of and HD channel that was previously on an SD channel

Someone have a setup running 2 Colossus on the same machine ?
My second card is activated but not running.

The latest HDPVR drivers http://www.hauppauge.com/site/support/su...hdpvr.html
contains this tidbit

"Arcsoft TME now allows the manual setting of the video aspect ratio for standard definition (changes require restart of HDPVR)"

Can this be controlled by NPVR?

Hi

I am new here and excuse me if this has been discussed elsewhere (just too much stuff to read in one go).

Is there a way to turn on/off the DVB stream subtitles using a hot-key (ultimately by remote)? Ctrl-X seems to only turn on the teletext subtitles.

Thanks in advance

I have a feeling that I'm missing something obvious, but I cannot get NPVR to record audio via optical..only AAC via RCA.

I have configured via ArcSoft Showbiz and it retains the optical settings...and allows recording of AC3 via optical...but the settings don't seem to be used by NPVR. Am I missing something? I have searched the forums and see some entries about AC3 playback...but not about recording (of course I may have missed it)

Thanks,
Bill

New guy here and just getting started. Most of the topics here are so far over my head I have no clue what you're talking about, but I'm trying & learning.

My first road block in attempting to get my system going is that I will be using the Adaptec avc 3610 analog tuner. I downloaded the Hauppauge Wintv7 and the associated 32 bit SoftPVR bat. The instructions say that I am supposed to edit the bat. to reflect the new Wintv7 version (2.3g) via Notepad. I have no idea how to do this. If someone could give me a little (lot) of step by step guidance it would be appreciated. Thank you.
