File Time Problem with 1.0.16

[bigbus01]

Sub,

I just recorded 3 shows as the same time. One show was recorded using cable box on S-video. This show was 30 minutes and showed that it was 30 minutes long.

I recorded two HD programs (30 minutes each). One was on my OTA ATI HDTV Wonder and the other was on my HVR-1600 QAM. Both of the HD shows (using Microsoft DVR-MS BDA multiplexer) showed that they were over 2 hours long even though they played back at 30 minutes long. The files showed that they were over 2 hours on Windows Media Player also so there must be something wrong with the header.

Have you seen this before?

The files do play back fine but the time is way off and comskip had problems with it (there were lots of commercial breaks that shouldn't have been there like it was a 2 hour show).

The mux is responsible for generating any timestamp information etc, so it sounds like something went wrong in there. I couldnt guess why exactly.

That said, for three recordings at once, you might want to make sure your hard drive is nicely defragmented for quick access etc.

The free version of TSREADER can look inside the TS files to see what is exactly in there.

Sub,

Tried a defrag (the drive is almost empty anyway). This was a fresh install which I did on another PC also with an OTA HVR-1600. That PC records fine. I just tried another recording with the HVR-1600 QAM by itself and get the same thing. A one minute recording shows as 3:30. Again it plays fine.

Only seems to be a problem with Microsoft DVR-MS. Cyberlink and TS Mux don't have this problem. Is there something I can fix, I would like to continue to use DVR-MS?

Fixed, flopped around between cyberlink, TS and DVR and it works now. Thanks Sub.
