Hi guys! Thanks for the previous help, it works great except for one thing...
When I record a show (say a 1 hour tv show), sometimes it plays back nicely. Other times, it plays back 30 seconds of it and then kicks back to the menu. When I go to look at the MPEG files in the recording directory, I ALWAYS find that these shows have been broken up into multiple MPEGS rather than a single one. SHows that have been recorded into a single MPEG playback just fine.
My question is, can I prevent GB-PVR from recording one show into multiple MPEGS (I mean, some of the parts are only 400 KB long!) and how can I play them back if not?
Thanks again!
Mike

GB-PVR never breaks a recording into multiple chunks, exception surfing live tv in timeshift mode. What names do these files have? Give me an example of the naming pattern.

Ok, for example. here is a list of 9 files that are all the same single episode of CSI:
CSI Crime Scene Investigation_20050502_22002300-1.mpg 22266 Kb long
CSI Crime Scene Investigation_20050502_22002300-2.mpg 402071 Kb long
CSI Crime Scene Investigation_20050502_22002300-3.mpg 10665 Kb long
, etc...all the way down to -9. All are different sizes, the smallest being 118 Kb long.
They are all the same show, and each consecutive file plays from where the last one left off.
Weird, eh?
No post-processing going on and I have axed the Comskip as I found it wasn't very good. This has happened since my original install of GBPVR.
Thanks

New problem, however. I now, for no apparent reason, have lost my ability to watch TV. It will record just fine, but since yesterday, when I click from the guide to watch a program, the audio comes up, but no video and the application stops responding and I have to force it to close. Clicking LiveTv has the same problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks again

UPDATE: Ok, now its working, but the video is upside down! WHat the heck??
HELP!!!
