X1 DVR - first attempt, not good

Post by oddjob »

Tried 2 recordings today, neither one was ATSC 3.0. Both playbacks were cyclic jittery with audio cutouts. Every 4 seconds or so, picture would slow/jump ahead with glitchy audio. The TV channel itself is fine, I can watch it all day long without jitters. Tried a power cycle of the X1, and now the "DRV Media" menu shows no recordings. Gone. The DVR is configured to use a 64GB USB stick. Running the new "5 open" firmware and app v2.36 I think.

I removed the USB stick and attached it to my laptop. Found the recordings, e.g. F:\Android\data\com.zva3.mobile.litetvandroid\files\hdtvdvr\The Bold and the Beautiful-013007pm-05232025/media.ts. This plays flawlessly on the laptop. That's good news at least. Hopefully the X1 app v2.39/2.40 has some DVR improvements.
