It turns out that Comcast remapped the channels, but since they used mixed HRC/Cable frequencies, HDHR could no longer find them.<BR/><BR/>I just updated with a new software version today, and this problem was resolved. However, rcHDHR cannot record the new channels, 32-1 and 32-3.

As far as using more than one instance of rcHDHR I do it all the time (I have two hdhr's so 4 tuners). No need to make multiple copies. Just change your command line. The first parameter is the deviceid. Every hdhr on the network has a unique ID (which you can see if you click on the HD tray icon). Pass that unique ID instead of FFFFFFFF. The next parameter is tuner so just pass 0 or 1.ARoganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01035010559491536662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21211810.post-89747780045532161312008-08-28T13:43:00.000-06:002008-08-28T13:43:00.000-06:00Thanks, you are correct, the slashes returned in t...Thanks, you are correct, the slashes returned in the %date% command were making the file name invalid. I have that all fixed now.<BR/><BR/>One little thing -- the resulting file can be played by MPC, but it it won't extend the end time as it's recording -- eg, if I start the file 5 mintues into recording, the end time is reported as 5:00 and even though it's still recording, it stops at that point. VLC will keep playing as the file is recording.<BR/><BR/>Is there any way to get the dump file to allow MPC to extend the end time while its still recording? I know MPC has this capability, as I use grafcorder to record off of my STB via firewire, and by using the Cyberlink dump filter, I was able to get the file to play in MPC in this manner.<BR/><BR/>Also, am I to assume if I want to run two instances of rcHDHR, I would need a second directory and a rename rcHDHR.exe to rcHDHR2.exe and change all the references in the command line or is this simply not possible? Or is there a better way to have two instances recording from each tuner?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21211810.post-61820781313870464572008-08-27T15:29:00.000-06:002008-08-27T15:29:00.000-06:00hanson, glad you found these little apps useful. ...hanson, glad you found these little apps useful.
