Does anyone notice MMC v8.7 crashes more than the last version when
recording with its scheduler? Here is what I get:

And yes, I uninstalled the older versions before installing the newer

Thank you in advance.

Heck, I can't even get it to run on my system.

I found mixing my xvid/divx codecs on the same machine as ANY mmc version
ive had with my ATi cards is terrible. The first thing to not work is the
ATi dvd player and then the TV Wonder Ve card features. I just had enough
and run othe software that is just as good if not better. I still get a
kick loading it on a perfect new system install and watch the blunders
happen. I can count on my pc running fine as long as its proven by the ati
software not working.

I know the codecs are a problem deal when you have so many. But all other
software for the most part is ok with it. Just not the ati software. The
DVD does look quite nice however when its the only software. Oh
well..........

Well, if I try using MMC 8.7 when I fire up the TV tuner, it reboots my
PC. However if I stick with the 7.6 which came with my card, it works
like a charm.

I didn't use 8.5 long enough to make a good comparison, but yes, 8.7 does
crash often in the scheduler. Also, it sometimes records with garbled
sound, with a line of noise along the top of the screen, or with a
spontaneous zoom factor of 2.

About the same as with 8.1 here; fairly well-behaved.

My PVR system is Windows 2000, servicepack 4, running
on a Shuttle SN41G2, onboard video disabled.
AIW 9000, all hardware drivers up to date.

MMC itself rarely crashes; Guide+ throws a hissyfit
sometimes. The scheduler has been pretty solid -- a
pleasant surprise! I use my CMDTIME3 batchfile via
the Scheduled Tasks scheduler to set the time four times
a day (plus one minute to catch program start) as the
time on this little box seems to drift. I wish the system
were better at recording a program in the background while
I'm trying to watch a previous recording, but c'est la vie.

I would be interested to hear if the OP is trying to
overclock his vidcard or is otherwise operating outside
the usual parameters.

All of a sudden, all my scheduled recording settings were messed up. Then, I
couldn't even modify them. As soon as I clicked on one of them, the Modify
button goes gray. Actually, all buttons go gray, except of the "Delete All".
After re-creating them, I tried again, and I couldn't modify it again!
Really dumb. I tried to reboot and it worked fine the first time I started
TV. I was able to modify the list of schedules. However, as soon as I
closed it and re-opened it again, the buttons are again disabled, except for
"Delete All".

I had to remove MMC and then re-install it. So far, it has been two days and
it's fine. Who knows how long that's going to last...

I wasn't aware you could record and watch a previous recording.
Do I assume you use ATI's MMC to record (VCR file) and its VCR
program to watch a recording from a different VCR file?

I don't like overclocking so no.

Let PVR do the recording. Open past recorded files (VCR, MPG or whatever
format) in the File Player.
