"One touch record" settings
I prefer "one touch record" set to "Program Name (start time)".
Somehow before each recording it's changed to "User defined". While the "Library" indicates the correct name, the stored file shows whatever happens to be there, normally the wrong name. Another problem is that ONLY .vcr files will play back. All other types (mpeg, avi) result in black screen and no audio while it appeared to be recording normally and has produced an appropriate file size. Running an ATI 9600XT and MMC 9.03. Anyone else having these problems? Any productive ideas on the above situations greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jack. |

While the "Library" indicates the correct name, the stored file shows whatever happens to be there, normally the wrong name. With your TV up and running, click on the check mark on the TV's control panel. (Alternatively, you can click Ctrl + S) This brings up the TV Set-up window. If it's not already visible, click on the Personal Video Recorder tab. In this new set-up window, click on "One Touch Record" to access those settings. Under "Recorded File Name" click on the down-arrow and select any one of the several options available. Another problem is that ONLY .vcr files will play back. All other types (mpeg, avi) result in black screen and no audio while it appeared to be recording normally and has produced an appropriate file size. This is undoubtedly because you're settings are set to recording in an ATI.vcr format. Change those settings and it should result in something more useful to you. If, from the above instructions, you've already closed the TV Set-up window, re-open it by clicking the check mark or CTRL + S. With the Personal Video Recorder tab selected, you should now see a "Map Presets" bar. Click this bar to open the Recording Presets window. Here you can select something other than an ati.vcr format. Personally, I prefer DVD-MPEG-2 since this is the best setting for me to later burn the captured program to DVD, but you can try others to see what is best suited for your needs. HTH f |

I may have found the problem; there are TWO "One Touch Record"
file name entries: The first is under "Personal Video Recorder", "One Touch Record" settings. The other is under "Schedule", opened when the movie name is clicked twice. The seventh window, "Output File" also has the list under "Styles". I haven't fully checked it out yet but did find that even though the first "One Touch Record" was set to "Program Name" the second was set to "User Defined". I have changed both to "Program Name" and hope this takes care of it. Jack. |
