Well Carol, I think the more you use TR, the more you will like it. I
must say though, that my recording needs aren't really all that varied,
mostly recording streams, and adding notes to those broadcasts whenever
I burn them to cd for a friend of mine. Those addendum being dates and
any other necessary information he might find helpful.
Editing is remarkably easy. You can also append to any files you have
recorded or place a file any place you might wish too within said file.
I find myself doing this whenever I have to record the repeat streaming
of the program that ended prematurely.
All I can say is that I hope that the solution to this problem is indeed
one relating to power options. Considering just how inconsistent this
occurrence is, it may take me weeks to make that determination. I will
keep exploring these options for things that might have a logical
relationship to this issue.
I really can't understand why TR would be telling you that you had so
many hours to go after two hours of recording. I don't think I've ever
had that happen, but if it has, I sure can't recall. Hopefully that
problem will quickly resolve itself.
If you have any other questions about TR, be sure and let me know, and
I'll do my best to help you.
I've had Goldwave on my systems for about as many years as TR, but have
never made any real use of it.
I did download MP3DC, or more to the point, downloaded it from Butch
Bussen's Shell World page, but haven't had a chance to run it. I really
can't imagine it having anything like the sophistication of TR, but
we'll see if it might be useful in some way. Who knows, it may be just
what the doctor ordered for my issue. Wont know until I've tried it.
However, I think I'll give the power options a go before attempting to
adjust to using another program.
Oh well Carol, let me know how things go.
Take care,
Larry

Well, I was looking through the settings the other day because the pc
kept going to sleep and I thought I had set it not to sleep. Well,
while there, I found internet but didn't change it. The recording I
had made was just under two hours, and Total
Recorder did not shut down. so I had the impression that maybe I
should try to find the setting for internet. I had to look for it,
but I can't exactly tell you where it was, but I think it was under
advanced settings. Today's recording was about 3.5 hours. The only
problem I had with the scheduler was that I set the start time to
12:00 and the finish time to 15:30. When the time was up, Total
Recorder informed me that I had almost 12 more hours to record.
Trying to stop the recording was difficult. It would not pause or
stop until I finally tried alt-F4. I didn't want to try that because
I was afraid I would lose my recording. It did not. I was promptee to
make a decision to stop or continue. I stopped it and my file was
immediately saved.
There is so much to this program. If I can read about it, I think I
will like it possibly more than Goldwave. I also will take a look at
MP3 DC. It sounds like a good program. Goldwave and Windows 10 are
not playing as nicely together as Windows 7.

Hmmm, I'll have to check out the power options for sleepers I guess.
I don't think I have anything set to sleep here, but I certainly
could be wrong. You would think though that if there were sleeping
apps or hardware, that this would happen on a predictable cycle, but
maybe not. But anyway, thanks for that suggestion, and I hope it
continues to work for you, and will work for me as well.
BTW, what made you think of that <smile?>

Hi Larry. I was able to record 3.5 hours of streaming today. I
used the scheduler.
The other thing I did was to change power settings so my PC would
not sleep or turn off devices like the internet. This was something
I never had to worry about in Windows 7. I just said don't sleep
and nothing did, grin.

Carol,
I've been using TR for at least 15 years. Couldn't get along
without it. I use it, for
the most part, for recording audio streams. The gap here might be
that I am using the professional edition. With the pro edition, you
can schedule recording sessions, and in theory, and even in fact,
they can go on until you run out of drive space.
The streams that I record are .mp3, and the longest one I've
recorded was twelve hours without a hitch.
I say all that to say this. I do have a problem more often than I
would like with recordings that just quit with no real explanation.
I think I would give my right arm if I could find a way to do
something about it.
The thing is, the recording session doesn't shut down when this
happens, but stays open until the end of its scheduled time. I even
have TR set to reconnect when it loses the connection, at least
that is what I think is happening here, but no go.
OK, maybe I wouldn't give my right arm, but maybe a steak or
chicken dinner if someone could help me to figure this one out.
I kinda think it might be a problem with Comcast, but it is so
random in nature, I can think of no way for them to check it out.
Oh well.
I know this hasn't been very helpful, but maybe, just maybe someone
might hear our cry, and come to our aide.

Is there anyone on the list that uses Total Recorder standard
version 8.? I want to record something that runs for more than
two hours. It always stops early. How can I get something to
record until I come back and turn it off? Thanks. Also, are
there either tutorials or a written manual? I hate trying to find
things in the help screens from the internet.
Carol
