Tom, I have been lucky enough to be privy to how much time and effort you have thrown into the almost constant updates and fixes over the last few days, and I hope I speak for many when I say the new Open Tuner version will bring useful and fascinating real time updating information to DATV fans' screens.
Thank you. Chris 2E0ILY

Hi Tom
Love the new software - working well on receive and I like the bigger screen area for the video. One thing I can't seem to get to work is the "r" button to record the video. The debug screen says recording, then it says saved when press r again. Only problem I cant find the video file or its not in default location. Any pointers please?

My OT stores recorded content wherever Main Settings - Media Source - Media Snapshot Path is set to. I altered my path but as default I think it was set to C:/satmedia
Just tested it and it works as expected here.

Glad to have helped Steve. If you want a chat about anything you feel I could help with Tx wise feel free to e-mail me and I'll fire across my phone number.
If you watch my Tx's be sure to like garden birds, I tried to think of something to transmit live, that constantly changes. As for the singing I again had to find someone who would give permission in case anyone cited performing rights blah blah. (In other words I took the quick and easy ways out <LOL>)
Being in the motor sport game I also tend to play the odd in car or dyno cell videos. I look forward to seeing you on the satellite soon.
I am thinking of selling my Swedish 1.8 meter dish and its nice polar mount...

Hi All,
"Stupid" question. I have the new OT version 0B downloaded, but can not find out how to start it. There is no .exe file or install file.
The older version oA works fine.

Hi,
Put zip file in folder and unzip, just run opentuner.exe as normal that has not changed, works here no problem.
