Thank you for the response. I am using
WM Recorder 11.2. I had the same problems with 12 (where I began to notice problems so I uninstalled and re-installed).
I am using Windows XP Media Center 2005 (virtually the same as XP). I am using the ADA mode and Auto recording. I use I.E. 7 (with up to date updates). All current service packs on XP, .net Frameworks all except 3.5 which seems to give me trouble.
My "broadband" connection is inconsistently fast. So on average the speed is insufficient for constant stream play (this is why I use the recorder). Of course I will start and stop play in the embedded player. I suspect higher speed broadband connections that experience no pause to buffer would not "see" my problem.
I do not know if WM Recorder is at fault. This is why. If I do not run WM Recorder, and simply play the video using the embedded player it will pause and buffer fine to random points in the video time line..... THEN the video will appear to pause as usual and it will never begin play again. [The funny thing here is I found that if I clicked and dragged the Seek slider a bit forward the play button would fome in focus and I could click it and the video would play from that point.]
Now if I were playing in the player and recording the stream at the same time (speed drops as is known so I don't do) this is where I would read "cancelled" and in the recording window see the countup to 100 then a Reconnect and the WMR recording from the url from the start with a filename indexed by 1.
My internet connection never fails, during any of this and the link to webpage is active (I am not "offline" according to IE7).
Thanks for any suggestions. Though I am afraid to re-create my situatiom, you would have to have a connection that paused the stream regularly.
I had this problem in a small way before where 1 out of 5 videos might have a restart or two before a complete file (indexed name) would be shown as complete.
Now though after 10 reconnects I am luck to get one complete file "trying" for five different videos! Something has changed.
Thanks in advance for your help and interest.
