<br>cures the problem. It's a workaround but too much of a headache to do<br>for every recording.<br>Running the file through ffmpeg also strips out junk which is part of<br>the stream, so maybe the AD track isn't the whole story in my case.
<br><br>Anyway - Steve you said you've got a hackish solution to the problem<br>where you don't bother recording the AD track. Could you ever see<br>yourself tidying that up so that it can become a setting? Or letting
<br>us see the code change? worth a go. If nothing else it'd end up<br>saving a lot of HDD space for those of us who don't need AD &<br>subtitles.<br><br>Regards,<br>Justin<br>_______________________________________________

<div><br>Justin,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'll see if I get time... at the moment it's linked to the recording profiles...so that if you select</div>
<div>"TV only" it only records Video+1st Audio.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'll look on Fri evening to see if I can dig out the code changes I made. They're not huge.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I've been using it now for several months without a hitch. (Even though theoretically, selecting</div>
<div>only the 1st audio track it finds, could result in a duff recording)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Someone else could change it to a genuine setting perhaps....</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers</div>
