Cannot play recordings, but live TV is fine

[mvallevand]

As Brett already posted, I wrote a utility called NextTool that can import video recordings by folder or a single file. I then warned about importing wtv file because it will do that with all the embedded metadata but the files don't play in uidroid. I suspect this embedded metadata is being used by WMC for part of an old API that Microsoft used which made it easier to provide a custom filesystem with metadata. NextTool also can import Silicon Dust DVR recordings from their recording folder with full metadata.

I wouldn't bother trying to find NextTool now since user @ceejayemm kindly offer to write the wiki page consolidating all the posts on this forum and he has almost finished.
