HD200 not playing live TV recording

Hi,

Last night I recorded a HD sports event that went for 4 hours and created a 19GB recording. It plays back perfectly on WIndows SageTV clients but will not play back on my two HD200's. There are no error messages the time line progress just a black screen no audio or video.

Does anyone know how I might find out what the cause is ?

Thanks

Sorry,

Q6600 8GB, Vista x64, SageTV 6.5, 2 x Hauppauge 2200 (DVB-T version of 2250). Using latest drivers 7.6.1 27090 on tuners.

2 x STP-HD200, 3 x Win XP CLients, 1 x Mac and 1 x MVP Client.

All works, super reliable except for these big HD FTA recordings.

SD seems to work OK.

Cheers

silly question... but did you try restarting the hd200 (hard restart, unplug/plug)?.... lately ive been testing bluray playback of files from tsmuxer... occasionally tsmuxer makes a file that has this effect (black screen, progressing timeline). When i stop playback and try to playback anything else i get a playback error.... its probably a different problem but you never know...

Thanks for the response - I tried that, I have 2 x HD200's same thing on both.

Is there a log file I can view to see if there is an error ?

Cheers

Thanks - Nothing in the logs, I think I will submit a bug. I will try to cut down the size of the file and send it through

Cheers
