This would be a huge help when first starting/ setting up cTivo and have large amount of shows on the Tivo HDD. maybe under Adv Pref to start that will download all shows in the queue and still keeps them queued for encoding, but will not begin the encode until unchecked (by default this should Null the "Use memory buffer for Downloads" at least for now). Side Note- could help people with slower computers as well.Ĭheck Box the main page (next to subscribe). It would help determine if it is the encoder causing the problem(which I know is not cTivo responsibility) or the Tivo refresh/ updating cycle. my cTivo currently encodes 2 videos at a time and downloads/ detect ads on a 3rd (whether or not "Can download and encode" is checked). it will download Show1 then detect ads on Show1 then encode Show1 and only when Show1 is completely finished being encoded, Show 2 will start download etc, etc. Which is why I am not 100% if the refresh -> leads to the "Encoded" or "Complete"-> which leads to all future process(downloading/ detecting ads/ encoding) being paused or if the encoder never makes it to "Complete" and is stuck in "Encoded"-> which leads to all future process being paused.Ĭheck Box(under advanced pref) to force only one instance of a download/ comskip/ encoder (Handbrake/ Mencoder/ Elgato. Sometimes it will say just "Encoded"(status bar will look 100%) as if the encoder has encoded the video and is trying to finish up the process and then all future process are paused Now with that being said, it does seem to finish up the current jobs, (Meaning it will download/ detect ads and then encode all currently initiated process) with it displaying "Complete" most of the time but all future processes are paused. Not a 100% where the issue is but it seems that when the cTivo "Refreshes/ Updates Tivo" while it is downloading/ detecting ads/ encoding can lead to the all future processes(downloading/ detecting ads/ encoding) being not being initiated indefinitely(as if the scheduler was kicked on/ or it has paused with no "Paused" being displayed) until a manual refresh(cmd-R) is initiated or a show is rescheduled. with Bonjour finding the Tivo and manually assigning the Tivo address (Tivo's address was manually assigned on the router prior).check/uncheck next to "download and encode at same time" to see if that was causing the problem.If you have multiple TiVo ® accounts with multiple MAKs you will only be able to use 1 MAK.I have only been using mencoder with personal pref (the only thing I changed was Bitrate to crf=22) and I don't know if this happens on the other encoders. TiVo ® MAK (Media Access Key): The HP MediaSmart Expander for TiVo ® only supports 1 MAK. For Mac, Roxio Toast TiVoToGo is required, see website for details.In some areas, local and long-distance toll charges may apply.TiVo ® service is accessed through a standard telephone line or broadband connection.TiVo ® service and payment are subject to the terms and conditions available at.TiVo ® service is required for the TiVo ® DVR to function and is sold separately.TiVo ® DVR Series II, Series III, TiVo ® Premier and free TiVo ® desktop software.Compatible with HP MediaSmart Servers models EX490/EX495 or HP DataVault X510, earlier models are not compatible.
