Comment on Replay2DVRMS – Watching ReplayTV shows on Windows Media Center by CenterHalo

Wow – this is great! I was searching for a way to get my Replaytv Shows on my XBOX and this works perfectly. It took a couple of hours to figure it all out, but this is exactly what I was looking for.

I’m running Vista Premium and had a hard time getting the program to work because the program does not handle spaces in the folders. So I moved my DVarchive folder to c:\Dell\Local and then created a new folder c:\users\public\recorded for the converted files.

Running the program in CMD worked fine – just remember that you don’t need the quotes.

Setting it up as a Task means you need the quotes.

My biggest problem was trying to convert a file that was recorded in a “medium” quality setting on Replaytv. That doesn’t seem to work right. Low Quality works fine and I think High will work too (it’s converting as I speak).

The each one hour long Spartacus took less than 2 minutes each to convert.

Now I can finally watch these shows in the Man Cave.

ps: look for me on poopli but my kids have taken over my Replay unit. If you like Phineas and Ferb, it’s the place to go. You can imagine my need to archive Spartacus from curious children.

Same problem here, even after 5 years… The solution you’ve posted didn’t work, neither any of the other solutions on the msdn blog. I had to uninstall the “.NET Framework 3.0 SP 2″ to fix it (I had two .NET Frameworks installed: 2.0 SP2 and 3.0 SP2).

Sprint told me that I needed to have a 1400 minutes plan and add the tethering capability. Tethering is not included on the $99 all you can eat plan.
