Uk 01 and ngrab

I have got recording to a network share working fine on a dbox2, and am now playing with my new dreambox. I have the new tuner (i think) and have installed the Digitalworldz Dream UK01 image. Getting used to it now after coming from neutrino images on the dbox2. So far not been able to get recording working using ngrab, the recording starts but stops straight away. I have attached the log from a test recording if anyone can interpret it. No doubt i have not set up ngrab correctly, but i've not used it before and not been able to find any guides to setting it up. Any help, or suggestion's for an easier recording setup would be much appreciated.

Have you set up a mount to a shared folder on your PC?

I've never got ngrab to work. Gemini 3.30 or DiorJ v0.6 have Direct Recording to a mount and it works 100%...if you don't get ngrab to work.

Thanks for the quick reply Devilfish. Yes i have set up a mount, think i'll give DiorJ a go.

Ok set up DiorJ v0.6 and mounted my share. Had a quick go at direct recording, but it stopped straight away, saying disk full, i guess direct recording is not pointing at the mounted directory, cant have a play at the min as the missus and daughter are watching dr who. lol.
Just having a look remotely and the recording did go straight to the /mnt directory on the db as i suspected. I have my shared directory mounted at /mnt is that correct?
Will have a play when the box is free

Mount the share to /hdd/movies

Thanks guy's, got it working now, but recordings are very 'blocky'. Maybe my network settings, but didn't have a prob on the dbox2. Noticed in the web interface under mount manager random mounts appearing, also if you create mounts, they dont show on the db (looking at mounts on the tv) not sure what's going on there, maybe just me, messing too much, may have to reflash and start again.
