Blank recordings

[BubbleBalls]

Nice one Marty. Sorry - I PM'ed you before I seen this post. Thanks for your help.

that's my little theory ruled out - way off the mark!!

Finally nailed it

Seems you MUST have at least 1 min before and after in the recording settings.
After loads of testing it seems if you set it to "o" mins you will get failed recordings.

I was using a backup image of Steves and I made 20+ recordings with no issues, I then set the time to "0" mins and instantly got failed recordings.

So, those who have issues please see what your before/after setting are

I'll try this and report back, set to 1 min before and 15 mins after

UPDATE : this works

UPDATE : build 680 (gigablue quad)

tried twice now : 0 mins before and 0 mins after recording :

both times the second recording was PERFECT

gonna do more testing.

You need to record 4 to be sure
Mr. Mister tested an image I sent him (it was set to "0" mins) at 1st it was OK then he too got failed recordings.

I personally have recorded a good 30+ programs since with NO problems (set at 2 mins before and after) and I'm 99% sure this is the fix
I can set it back to "0" and get failed recordings quite consistently

update : did 4 in a row now and only the 1st got sound, the 3 next don't have sound.

Set it to 2 mins REBOOT and try again and you'll find its then OK

You can not set it to "0"..

You must give it a time of 1 minute or above..

[skippie]

yes that works. I've set to 1 min before and 20 minutes after and no problems.

20 is a bit extreme

20 is a bit extreme

yes i know but it does happen that 15 mins is not enough.

I agree that on some foreign channels you need a lot of leeway... I usually use about 20 mins before and after with French channels, but Rob had said before on ditch channels, he uses 30 min buffer!!!

Not in the Netherlands: I have to set -5 to + 30 to be (more or less) sure to capture an event completely. I'm rather jealous to our UK friends: UK-programs are always spot on!

That's because the Dutch are too busy having a "Scmoke"

I have always used a buffer, start and finish. Just thinking. Should the minimum before/after be default at 1 min. At the moment you can still select 0. Or is the issue resolved in recent builds?

I have never had this problem that you guys had..

As far as i am aware.. Marty changed the start time to -1.. and end time to -1.. And this seems to have fixed his issue..
