This is my first post, and I must say that the NPVR program is generally excellent compared to any other software I have tried.
My setup is running XP SP3 and has both a Freesat and a Freeview tuner.
However, I have discovered an issue with recording programs with '..' (2 fullstops) at the end of the title. The recording status indicates that they are recording ok, but when complete the entries vanish without a trace, no error is reported.
The directory is created correctly, but the file is never created within. The logs mention that the file name is invalid and it still contains the '..' within it.
Program titles with '...' (3 fullstops) work fine, the file name is stripped of all the fullstops.
The information in the XML guide file does actually have 3 fullstops, but when NPVR imports it, it is stripping a fullstop from the end.
This problem only seems to affect XML guide parsing, as guide data pulled in from the built in DVB EPG collector works fine.
