UNC paths not working

[swishbish33]

I had to reformat and reinstall Sage. I have copied back my old wiz.bin and sage.properties files. I have set the recording directories to the UNC paths I used before, and it will see the files I had recorded before the reformat (after copying them back to the original directories). But whenever I try to record or watch live TV, it gives me a capture error, saying I can't access the file system. I am running XP Home, and went into safe mode, to the security tab on each of the two folders I have shared as UNC paths, and set my user name to have full control over the folders. When I set the recording directories to mapped drives, it works fine. What the heck is going on?

Hi,

if you are running Sage in Service Mode you need to change the logon account of the service to your user.
