Windows2000 WinTV Speed Tip.
So you went to improve WinTV2000 for better performance
Open Notepad & add the following lines

echo off
start /priority wintv2k.exe

Replace priority with the desired CPU priority
(high or abovenormal for best performance) save as wintv2k.bat
in (Driver Letter):\Program Files\WinTV\ folder
then make a shortcut on the Desktop.

Windows2000 span fix it set at "800" 2gig rigth now but if went
you can edit it frist and set size you went. 2x like to "1600"
that will give 4+gig for more 2x like "3200" that will give
8+gig. Win2K MPEG Span Fix
Read below for info on this but need dbl click on the fix frist.

How make smaller MPEG files the eazy way.
Note: You need the latest beta drivers for it to work rigth.
Open Registry Editor or Start | Run then type regedit enter go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Hauppauge\hcwSlipWriter,
Just like showing in this Picture Click Here.
DBL click on "File_Record_Size" then check "Decimal" type in the
size you want, Just like showing in this Picture Click Here.
NOTE: 74min CD should be 700MB and 80min CD should be 750MB
But this will bepend on the MPEG VCD Encodec you use to Convert over
to VCD or SVCD so it may very in file size.
And other thing to take in count for some of MPEG Editor can't read
the span files look like this _dvcr001.mpg, _dvcr001#1.mpg
This why I like Womble's Mpeg2VCR it will give me a clean MPEG header
off the span files.

The new arguments specific to Scheduler are:
Filename: -startr:FILENAME

Timed Recording: -limit:SECONDS
Mute: -mute
Record Quality: -qMode (Mode: "def" for default, or "vcd" for VCD compatible)
Example Record Quality:
-qvcd = vcd quality
-qdef = default quality

You can also use windows scheduler with these options to make the TV go
on and off automatically.
A typical command line generated by Scheduler:
C:\PROGRA~1\WINTV\WinTV2K.EXE -c21 -ntod -startr:WinTV_(7).mpg -qvcd -limit:1800

Options for Wintv32/Wintv2000:
NoSplashScreen = "-nss"
NotCoolGUIMode = "-nc"
GoolGUIMode = "-cg"
NoTipOfDay = "-ntod"
Suite = "-sSuiteName"
Chan = "-cChannelNumber"
Preset = "-pPresetNumber" Note the channel or preset number should exist in
channel manager in the specified suite or All Channels suite for these to
work. They can also include channel numbers like 200 for Ext-1 selection.
WindowMode = "-mMode" Mode = "tv", "NoTitle", "Title" , or "Off" (all caseless)
(Note: "Off" will cause an existing instance of the Wintv app to exit)

Example: I have a shortcut that starts on Channel 21 as
"C:\Program Files\WinTV\WinTV2K.EXE" -c21 in the target field of the shortcut.
