Network Recorder & Ceton InfiniTV Configuration Problem

[Enigma]

Ok I will make those changes. I don't know where to find the 2.7.2 version as it appears only the 2.6.0 version is available (nvm found it in a limited access section but it says access denied when I try to download it.) Could you upload/attach it here?

I did use that guide you are referring to and as I mentioned it is working for the most part. The guide was very helpful and I would have been lost without it and several other helpful write-ups on the NextPVR site.

I have it set to use a 6000 delay - is that ok? I'll try 5000 anyways to see how it fairs.

I tested recording a show and it looks like it can record the entire show ok as a .ts (30 minute show 3.5GB file) but when I try to play it back in NextPVR, it continually stops responding. Same thing seems to happen when I play it with Windows Media Player and it won't play at all with VLC.

Sorry it's donation ware at this time if you read the SageDCT links.

Upload a 1 minute sample recording somewhere of what you have and I will check it out.

Oh ok. I noticed theres a vlc RTP handler in 2.6.0 - should I try using that?

Will get a recording up shortly.

Yes the vlc mux is better than the default based on samples I have seen. As a Canadian I can't actually use this.

Okay I'll experiment with vlc also.

Here's the clip, sorry it's 2 minutes I think.

I tried the vlc a bit but it seems to maybe not work. I pointed it to a 64bit vlc.exe but it wasn't showing me live tv and didn't appear to be writing data to the .ts (remained empty even after I cancelled the recording)

[mvallevand]

Yes it's a problem with the mux. remuxed it is much better.

So do I need to wait for 2.7.2 to become public then or is there another decoder/processing step I can add as is? What if I force H264 or would that even work?

[mvallevand]

If you don't want to donate five buck I guess you wait. The file does seem to play in NextPVR though (I tried in my backend) so you might want to check what you are using for a decoder (I tried with both LAV and ffdshow no problem) It's not an h264 file it is the mpeg2 decoder with an ac3 filter that you need.

Martin

[Enigma]

Right about its current format but I think I can put some flags in the force it to generate H.264 (maybe?). Hmm, I am using LAV video and audio decoder for the right formats/filters - I wonder why you can play it back but not me. Is there a particular codec installer package you used? I used CCCP and left things pretty much default.

[mvallevand]

You might need to turn on mpeg2 decoding in LAV on the format tab.
