Hi.
I am having a regular problem with this - scheduled recordings appear OK, being the correct length, but on playback the video disappears after 10-20 mins, but the audio continues OK.
This is really really starting to get me down.
I went out this weekend and bought a second aerial, so that my pvr has its own dedicated aerial, run through an amp. signal strength appears to be very good when this aerial is fed to a consumer stb.
Tonights recording of invasion - the video crapped out after 20 mins.
Audio carries on rolling.
It seems its something new that started the other day.. at first it just be suddenly after 15minutes on net radio it would stop playing the radio,and the radio text would freeze(song name and stuff)and youd have to restart gb-pvr.
Now its more, after watching tv for barely any amount of time gb-pvr closes tv and goes back to the main menu... Any reason why it would do this?
I've been having probs with My videos for last few months (actually just one problem that I never solved, so gave up, but now really really want to go back to using your superb plugin if I can). I wonder if you can help? Here goes:
Whenever I turn on my videos in the config tools and then close the config tool, GBPVR starts hogging CPU resources (40-60%) and there is absolutely constant hard disc accessing. GBPVR otherwise works find as long as My Videos is switched off.
Here's the relevant (only extract that shows errors) from log:

It used to only do this in the BlueMCE skin - have just tried it in default blue skin and same thing is still happening. I have lastest version of skins / plugins / GBPVR.....any guidance would be hugely appreciated, as I really want to go back to My Videos if I can,
OK - this has to be trivial to do. Can anyone recommend a utility to do it? It's a one-off job - I have 4 tracks that I want to convert. A way of converting to mp4 would also be useful as my wife wants one as a ringtone for her phone.
I am using a pvr150 and zap2it guide. Channel 13, which is ABC in my area only has static for audio(video is fine), whether recording or watching. It plays fine on my tv's connected directly to cable. It does this on other channels also, just seems randomly. channel 38 might have audio and then you switch to 39 and it doesn't. The video seems to be ok on all channels. Could it be a tuning problem? And if so, where do I adjust it?
I just checked it on WinTV2000, the software that came with the Hauppauge card, and it plays audio on all channels.
