R5000 captures OK but Sage looses it

With further research on the forums I found that adding the parameter "RecDelay: 2000" in the R5000 config file adds a delay in the initiation of the recording by the R5000 software. This resolves this problem.

I found this solution also through the AVS forum. Sorry, I should have posted back here.

Here was the solution from r5000hdsupport. It was actually in the R5000HD config, not sage:

Hi,
You can program a delay after the channel by manually adding an entry
into your configuration file:
"RecDelay: <time>" where the "time" is the delay in mS (e.g. 1 sec =
1000). To add a 2 second delay after the channel add:
RecDelay: 2000
the entry must be made exactly as shown with the colon after the token
and a space before the value.

The configuration file is found in the R5000 install directory:
c:\program files\r5000hd\ and is named: <device serial#>.cfg
Insert the entry last on the list but before "end" label if present.
