Save recorded files as .ts
Can SageTV write a .ts file instead of .mpg when recording a show? If so, where can I make this setting?
|
#2
|

|

mmc/encode_digital_tv_as_program_stream=false in the sage.properties file.
However I believe it's been recommended against doing that, recording to tranport streams isn't officially supported anymore. Why are you looking to record to a transport stream anyway? |
#3

.ts format is the native format coming from my STB (over firewire). If I'm not mistaken, this would prevent transcoding of the stream and give me exactly what is coming from the STB.

If you're recording over firewire, its using a network encoder and Sage doesn't touch that. So the files may say .mpg, but they are transport streams (unless you set up your graph to convert).

In addition the "transcoding" done from transport to program stream is lossless, it doesn't change the video or audio stream at all, just how their packaged.

May well have come that way out of the box. Crack it open with TSReader and see what it says.

I use Zoomplayer to play everything. I'd prefer that my Sage HDHomerun recordings have the .ts extension so that I could configure Zoomplayer playback with different splitters/decoders, separately from SD .mpg files from my Hauppauge 250. |

So to answer your original question-yes. At one time it was being used to see what produced the best timeline compatible output and what worked best for people.

changed the setting in the properties file, clicked save, started up SageTV, started recording a show, and...still is saving the file as a .mpg

You need to stop the Sage service or quit Sage completely. If you look at your properties file your changes probably weren't saved.

"mmc/encode_digital_tv_as_program_stream=false" restarted Sage, tried recording, .mpg output. I'm using a beta build, maybe that has something to do with it? No idea, just throwing that out there. |
