It something to do with your paths not being found.

What is the S: drive on the server? Is it a physical drive, or a mapped network drive?

Does S:\gbpvr\ exist on the server? Did a file get created in that directory?

I'm guessing the file isnt there.

It looks like you device is failing to start for some reason, so no recording file will be created, so nothing to stream to the client.

It's just a partition on the server. (1-0 raid). But it's mapped to the client as well. Could it be that the two recording services are interfering?

The recording service on the client does nothing, and no body talks to it.

The file is not there. You think the dvb-s device did not start? I'll reboot the server then.

Yes, it definitely didnt start.

Reboot and it worked. More future for your product (error messages).
Anyway, thanks for your time.
