Recording starts, but no file to watch when finished

[largelumox]

I am having a problem seemingly since upgrading to 1.2.9

I can schedule a recording from PVRX2 or EWA or MVP.

The recording starts, i can see the mpg file growing whilst the show is recording, but when finished the file disapears.

I have attached the recording service log for the last test I performed....recording king of queens.

Post the logs and I'll take a look.

Do you have a PostProcessing.bat file?

sub,

sorry have uploaded the log...let me know if you need more...i do have a postprocessing.bat

[sub]

What is in your postprocessing.bat?

[largelumox]

zip attached.

to be honest i have no idea what's in it...i set it up a looooong while ago based on other examples out there.

If your recordings seem to disappear after the recording completes, then I'd temporarily try removing your PostProcessing.bat to see if they keep disappearing. Thats the most logical place for the problem to be occurring.

I thought you might say that, i have set up a couple of recordings with postprocessing.bat renamed...will advise when finished.

thanks for the help....oh and a great release other than this issue.

ok so i recorded a couple of shows with postprocessing.bat renamed and they recorded faultlessly....anyone have an idea why!

whats different in 1.2.9 that would cause this?

You sure have a lot of stuff in your postprocessing file. Hmm, maybe I just don't have enough. First guess is it's something with the delete or move commands. What, I don't know, but it's the most obvious things. You could try rem'ing things out one at a time to maybe track down the specific problem. I wouldn't think it's the delete command, though, because it should only be deleting the filename with "original" in it, and to get an "original" in the name there first should be a copy.


del "%~dpn1*_original.mpg"
del "%~dpn1*.logo.txt"
del "%~dpn1*.log"
del "%~dp1*.txt

echo Deleting temp files complete for %1 >>postprocessing.log
time /t >>postprocessing.log

move “%~dpn1.mpg” “%~dpn1_faulty.mpg”
retime “%~dpn1_faulty.mpg” “%~dpn1.mpg”

thansk for the suggestions, I'll play around a bit.
