I don't know if this has been posted here or not, but a quick search did not turn up anything. So I thought I would post something in the hope of making life easier for somebody.

It seems certain combinations of characters in the filename will prevent the video from playing within GB-PVR. Below is one example:

would not play: Transformers[2007].TS.Eng.DivX-LTT.avi
will play: Transformers.avi
will play; Transformers[2007]-LTT.avi

So far, I have not figured out exactly what combination of characters it is in the first filename that GB-PVR does not like.

Anyhow, if GB-PVR refuses to play a video that will play in WMP, rename it and see it that helps.

I would guess it might be the ".", the ".TS" or the ".DivX"...

Yeah, I'm guessing its the ".ts" in the name. I'm away from home for the next couple of weeks, but will try to fix it when I'm back in front of my development PC.
