When I added the Playon Plugin and pointed it to the recordings folder for PlayOn on my other machine that is when I started seeing frequent spinning circles. But even then it is only for a few seconds at its worst. All of my power settings on all of my machines are basically set to "STFU and let my machine RUN". Hard drives never spin down, no CPU sleep, indexing turned OFF, no "Green" drives. Basically anything I can think of to eliminate slowdowns, spinup times, etc are set for speedy. The only thing I have with any power limits is my laptop and only when it is on battery, on AC it is back to "STFU Greenie" mode. I record so much that sleep, idle, spindown etc would be pretty ineffective anyway. There is rarely more than a few hours in the wee hours of the morning that "something" isn't recording or I'm watching something. And I have all the system maintenance, chores, backups, etc set for like 3-5am.

I think you can just look at the file in a text editor, at the end.

And for KryptoNyte, I believe Sage's more typical behavior is to generate a text file with recordingname.properties with the relevant meta-data from the program guide. Then again, that might be BMT doing that for me(as I also have recordingname.my text files floating around, and I know BMT creates one, edits the other, while SageTV will only create the one), I forget. Anyhow, I don't recall SageTV having an implementation for either embedding it into the recordings themselves, or reading embedded metadata from a recording. I could be wrong on that however. I believe a large factor on that is that standards for doing such things haven't been around as long as SageTV has, and even then, implementation on the occasions that somebody has done so, has been anything but standardized(think web browser wars in the 1990's).

That was one of the features for SageTV when version 7 came out. Gerry

I don't think additional metadata (from sources like BMT) gets added to the file, but depending on the plugin that is grabbing the extra metadata, it may added to wiz.bin or stored in separate .properties or .my files or some external database (or all of the above). I believe Sage will scan the file for metadata if it can't find anything in wiz.bin (for example, if you move the file to a new PC, or if your wiz.bin gets deleted and re-created for some reason).

What program, specifically, would you folks recommend to read the metadata from any given Sage recording?

You can also set SageTV to create .property files (I forget what property turns this on and off). I do that for ALL my imported data (movies/TV from DVD). The only issue I have, is for recordings, the .property files aren't deleted with the show.

If you use commercial skip then set the .properties extension to be cleaned up when the recording is deleted.
