Regarding the problem with the Recorder grid showing Grey rows. The problem is the Windows path and filename maximum allowed length is 260 characters. Problem never noticed before until the BCDx36HP's came along with longer names than the 16 chars before them.
I could do one of three things to the Recorder as follows:
1. Limit the path and filename to 260 characters. Actually it would be 12 less than that because of the Append ' TO hh:mm:ss' adds 12 chars. I don't think this would be acceptable
2. Don't show an entry in the grid at all if exceeds 260 chars. I don't think that would be acceptable as no indication that something is wrong.
3.
Do nothing and leave it as it is with grayed out rows. I think this is the way to go so you will have an indication that the recording is not on the hard drive and you can check the format specifiers that you don't have too much info in the filename and/or edit the sys, dept/site/group, and/or channel name.
It looks like MS may lift the 260 character restriction which is another reason to go with number 3 above.
