I dont know. Hopefully Whurlston will be along to give you some HDHomeRun specific help.

you know sub i have been a lurker for sometime now.......you are kind of a celebrity.......and since you have posted to my thread, i kind of have your autograph!

maybe i should frame it?

My first thought would be that there is a software firewall getting in the way. If you have one running, make sure you added an exception for the GBPVRRecordingService.exe

If that's not it, do you have both tuners set up? If so, can you try starting a recording and while it's recording, start live TV, wait a couple of seconds, pause it and start playing again after a 10 seconds or so. Zip and post a full set of logs after doing this.

lol - would be better if it had been any easy answer for you. Unfortunately several things about the HDHomeRun are quite confusing to me, so I'm not great at answering questions about them.

More than "kind of" Wink

He IS GBPVR.

Oh and make sure you have turned off the "dynamic tuner allocation" in the HDHomeRun Setup. It causes funny things to happen with GBPVR.
