pc memory can and does play a significant role in how RAV and its
converter may perform.
Let me illustrate with today's wjr recording of noon to 2 pm. The
recording itself was fine beginning at roughly 12:04 PM AND ending at
around 3:01 pm as scheduled.
However, the automatic conversion failed at the 25 minute mark -- not
surprising as the desktop I have down here in Florida has only 512 mb
of ram and I was listening to a U of fl softball game at the time, RAV
was recording a show, ie6 was open, I had a telnet connection open for
email -- well, you get the drift.
Fortunately, I save the
original recordings so I had Switch, which is one of my context menu items
when I bring up the recorded file in explorer,
handle the conversion -- and all was fine.
Returning to the thread, wjr recorded flawlessly and a spot check of the
resulting file confirms this.
As one uses RAV more and more, you learn what to expect and anticipate --
and often different pcs work differently.
It's analogous to recording with a vhs: most of the time, the tv shows
set up to record, record.
Upon occasion, they just don't for any of a variety of reasons -- my
wife's favorite being when pbs stations do their fundraisers messing up
starting times of shows, what shows run, and all the rest.
