I have noticed on two Toppys that when a recording is nearing it's end the display shows the timing minutes countdown thus:-
03, 02. 03, 02, 03.... for some time then 02, 01 then to Standby.
I think it is because I have 4 mins end padding - am I right? |

Not sure where you are seeing this, but it can be a problem changing MyStuff default padding. Extend needs to know what is configured in MyStuff, Extend watches for the Accurate Bookmarks transmitted in Broadcast stream, you may be seeing its effect. |

Something to do with how "TF5000 Display v1.53" is configured?
(have you read the documentation? - I haven't!)

Are you seeing this on the front panel or or the screen? (I've never seen it.)

As others have said, if you change your MyStuff padding, you also need to change your Extend.ini settings to match, or you'll get lots of false positive matches that Extends thinks need to be extended when they really don't (so you'll use up disk space with all the unwanted extended recordings).

I see the countdown on the front panel.
Reading the display tap description I can find no clue to this phenomenon not that it is really a problem, just wondering why it happens.
Now changing the padding time could be right as on my old Toppy I changed the start and end paddings from a odd total to an even one (as advised) and I changed this Toppy from an end padding of 2 to 4 mins.
So I'll change that back and see what happens.
Actually I can't be sure that Options can always change things. I had the Red button skip set at + 240 secs. but I see that pressing Red shows that Time Shift pop up indicating + 3 mins! |

The default paddings for MyStuff and Extend are -2 and +6, and it is advisable not to change them. |

Default set at + 6 mins! Somehow I thought that but then thought the default couldn't be that long so thought it was 2 mins.
Thanks for that correction. |

Maybe I should have been a bit clearer....
MyStuff and Extend: pre padding default is 2
MyStuff and Extend: post padding default is 6 |

Do a TM Tools| Check MyStuff - this will tell you if you have mismatched paddings.

I didn't have TM on this computer so installed TM v 5.0
Connected Toppy OK (lots of connection noises) but no TM connection Have rebooted Toppy , re opened TM, checked the USB connection under the Connection tab (that at least shows)
Changed the USB socket, still cannot 'see' the Toppy. Hope this doesn't mean it has gone the way of the other Toppy!
Later I'll connect up the other computer (which was OK) |

Well this 'other'computer has connected with TM.
My previous comment that Options, perhaps just some of them, may not change anything as CheckMyStuff shows my postpad is 6 mins.!
In Options the postpad is 4 mins. Hope I'm not uncovering glitches here!
I'm not missing an APPLY button in Options am I? |
