    Of course some things would be different, such as the specs and etc, but the options and setups should be the same in most cases and similar in other cases.

yes i do
Bonjour,

I have recorded shows on my Buzz 4900. When selecting "PVR Recording" on the Remote Control, I see information about the recorded shows. When I select a recorded show to watch the following message appears "Stream is not available. Please try again later".
Questions
Does my provider have anything to do with the fact that I am unable to view recorded shows. For example, can it deactivate a function that prevents viewing?
Do I have to use other software like "Tivimate iptv Player" to view my recordings.
Is this a Buzz 4900 device bug.
Please help me understand.

Thank
 
Thanks for the information. I am able to view my recorded shows using VLC. The only problem is, I don't have the title of the show. I have a letter (ex: B) followed by a series of letters and numbers. I have the length of the recording which is a clue. Can we rename a recording to make it easier for selection.

Merci
 
good info, thnx Ryu


@ jacgin, I have been attempting to rename the file.
I have a recording stored in Internal Storage, and I open it with File Browser (which is a File manager type app onboard the XR4900).
Find the file thru File Browser and can open it and play it, but can not rename it. The app does have a Rename function which is found in one of the icons near the top, but it keeps telling me No File Found.

I connected a Mouse to the XR4900 and now if I highlight the file with RCU and can then select 'Rename' with mouse with it still highlighted , but same results (No File Found).

You could transfer the file to a External storage device and then transfer to computer and rename thru computer, but careful not to remove the extension part.

I tried with Total Comander too but there does not seem to be a 'Rename' function on that Manager.


I should have asked if you recorded to Internal hard drive or external hard drive ?
