Sub,
I liked the use of the NTFS streams to store the XML snippet about the recording and it set me thinking. My earlier 'working very well' set up died a death yesterday after I deinstalled ShowShifter and Intrevideo trials that I'd had one to experiment with their MUXes before finally fixing on dvr-ms. After I deinstalled the picture and recordings were choppy (a few seconds of good video then a pause then back again). Eventually by de-selecting and then re-selecting Cyberlink V6 as the default all worked well so I'm happy again.
But I wondered whether you could store the names/details of the various BDA filters in the XML stream alongside the recording (I suppose there's no reason that the whole graph couldn't be stored). I know that you save a couple of .GRFs but this would preserve it with the recording.
Cheers
Chris
