That <ExtraRecordingDirectories> needs to encode both a name and a path. ie,

<ExtraRecordingDirectories>KIDS~D:\Kids~MOVIES~D:\Movies~</ExtraRecordingDirectories>

So these bits are separated by ~ characters, and go in pairs, so for that example....
"KIDS" records to "D:\Kids"
"MOVIES" records to "D:\Movies"

I'll end up adding the ability to add paths on the Settings screen, to take away the 'user error' factor of manually editing config files.

The ExtraRecordingDirectories  is what I modified.
I deleted the ExtraRecordingDirectories line in the config file and that seems to fix it.

Thanks for looking at the logs and finding my error. I'll wait for this feature to be added later.

I couldn't wait so I tried a recording using the correct format.

<ExtraRecordingDirectories>MOVIES~G:\movies~</ExtraRecordingDirectories>

Works fine!

Is it possible to rename the DEFAULT label so the drop down menu says something other than DEFAULT?

Great - glad it worked for you.

No, you can’t rename DEFAULT at this stage. I’ll keep it in mind for a future update though.

As sub said, you can't change the label for the DEFAULT directory. But you can add another entry in the ExtraRecordingDirectories list which points to the same folder as the default if you just want to "clarify" what you types of files are stored there. (i.e. have "TV Shows" also point to the same directory)
