IMPORTANT:- You need to select the recording tool, even if you continue to use WinTvCap!
- Notes for
GBRecord users only
- You'll need to add a PRESETS section to direct ini.
- Please, make sure to tell direct.ini the type of PVR card you are using.
- The profile names are different, so you'll need to edit Profiles.ini
(or you have to use the "default" profile)
- The "One touch recording" button does not work so far!
- The "Record unlimited" button does not work so far!
- The "Stop" button does not work so far!

- Fixed: A bug in
beta release 169 caused invalid tasks. Recording
could fail, because of
invalid mpg file name.

- Date_Time + Channel + Program

- Channel + Program + Date_Time - Improved: EPG tasks older than 2 days ar not displayed any more
Version 1.0.1.163
- New: Tasks
scheduled from the task list can be recorded from
Composite or S-Video, too.
This is useful if channels are available as analoge source (recording via PVR tuner)

In case of trouble with beta 172 you should try beta 170, which is quite stable, but does not support GBRecord!
