Woke up this morning to find my PT folder empty. Message is no events to display. Timer recordings play normally. Did a power cord reset, no change. I am in the Capital Broadcasting dispute area. Anyone else?

Check the PTAT settings and disable the 2 stations involved in the dispute.

I had previously done that. The issue is not that PT wasn't recording but my folder full of recent shows is empty.

were any of them 8 days old, or did you change the save time to less then 8 days when disabling the 2 channels?

Save time is 8 days. Some shows would have been from this week.

I haven't seen any new shows during this Christmas/NewYears stretch. Nothing to record so nothing to accumulate in the PTAT folder.

If you have PTAT enabled for each night there will be something recorded even if it's a rerun.

I'd like to know who the bonehead is that made the PTAT limit of 8 days?

What's the issue with 8 days?

If you want to keep your recordings longer than 8 days, save them to your My Recordings folder. They will stay there until you delete them...

I am guessing it was the same bonehead that did not want to take more of the customer partition on the internal drive then they had to, so they only made it 8 days, and give the option of saving it over to the customers own partition if they so choose. Hell, they already use near 800 GB for company partition.
