  Sorry it took so long to update it! Didn't realise the bug had become common issue. Thanks to MymsMan for finding the fix and offering help maintain the package.

2. Force DLNA Index, Auto Decrypt, Auto Shrink
  
  Details are about here if needed. Current, or previous TSR buffers (what is left of them!) can be copied out and turned into usable recordings. The snapshot can be triggered using the remote and the "magic folders" interface, or the cmdline.

3. nicesplice - joining produces short output
  
  A quick bit of experimentation seems to be showing the problem is only with two recordings that have already been through nicesplice being joined in the wrong order (date wise). May be worth trying the opperation by joining the two original recordings first, then doing the cropping. Its going to...

4. nicesplice - joining produces short output
  
  I suspect it may be due to the first clip having time stamps significantly after the second. I have a feeling I saw this once, and didn't get round to looking into it. Does it work if you attempt to join them the other way round? I'll try some experiments here...

5. Nicesplice Magic Folders Problems
  
  Don't really understand why, but these problem recordings just seem to need more of the stream before the first frame marked in the nts to be kept. Nicesplice threw most of this away, but I've just uploaded a new version that keeps a bit of a "lead-in". Seems to do the trick on the test...

6. Nicesplice Magic Folders Problems
  
  I've made a bit of progress on this - Nicesplice removes any excess data at the start of the stream if it is before the first frame pointed to by the nts (which contains all the frame indexes). Prelimary investigations are showing this is causing the problem for some reason. Will hopefully get...

  I should have time to have a look over the next few days. Been a while though, so might take me a bit of time to re-familiarise myself with the code! Hopefully if the problem is with the sidecars, rather than the .ts it shouldn't be too nasty. Sounds like something wrong with the metadata - if...

  True. Though the FoxSat may still have a newer version depending on what is in it's custom firmware smb package (assuming that's less than 5 years old). If you haven't already tried, it would be worth setting up a bog standard smb share on a PC and seeing if that works. Also can you can see the...

  Just a thought, but maybe the NAS is using version 2 of the smb protocol, which the version on the HDR/HD can't cope with. This caused similar looking problems connecting to a Mac with OSX Lion or above. In Lion Samba was replaced by Apple's own less accommodating implementation. Maybe the...

  I've found h264 in an mp4 container to be reliable for trick play. The downside off course is you have to re-compress using an external program such as HandBrake.
