this build forces recording to a MKV container, with No Way to change to TS, and as we know UK recordings do not work in MKV containers.

so you have been warned!!!.

That’s a lie. I’ve used the remux option for ages with no problem.

ok, sorry, should have said HD RECORDINGS in MKV do not work.

Again, yes they do. You need to clarify exactly what doesn’t work well. Are you talking about deinterlacing?

@danjames92 I’ve certainly had problems when remuxing BBC1 HD recordings to MKV … if it hits a 1080i/1080p switch (for example a 1080p programme with a 1080i lead-in) it goes haywire!

Ok but the OP makes it sound like programmes just won’t record in HD or playback at all. It’s misleading and wrong.

I already did…

Please clarify EXACTLY what does not work, a 1080i to 1080p switch? Your opening post sounds like no recordings work at all and that’s not true.

Couldn’t resist…
Told Ya so…
LOL

Ok then i apologise if that is the case. I will test myself now.

as i have asked plex to close his thread as it seems to be pointless. as if you want to update do it, i’m out of here.

A quick update form us:

  • We are aware of an issue with stuttering in some HD recordings in the UK. We are currently investigating with samples provided and hope to have a solution soon.
