Bug Description

All recorded TV shows are reported to be 0 minutes long by the UPnP server. The shows are recorded as MPEG-2. I'm not sure if this applies to other video formats as well since I don't have any other videos supported by my PS3.

Sorry about the typo in the bug title. My brain got a little ahead of itself.

Hi,

thanks for this report. Can try with another media file to determine if it's the UPnP server not sending it out, or MythTV not saving the length time to the video file (which I'm guessing as it prob saves it to the db instead)

Sorry it took me over 2 months to reply. With the recent addition to Divx support to the PS3 firmware, I finally had some other movies to test out. No length ever shows up on the PS3. This applies to music as well. I don't know whether MythTV is actually saving the time or not or if it is even attempting to send it out through the uPnP server.

Ah, I just want to add that I tested that out on the latest SVN build. Just finished compiling less than an hour ago.
