Problem update.
I just found the reason why sleep mode won’t work. It has to do with the
TempRec folder wich will be automaticly placed in the recorded tv folder. I
tried to change the the location in the registry but after restarting the
“bad” service (ehrecvr) the TempRec folder is right where it was.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media
Center\Service\Video\Tuners\DVR\IO\Writer]
"DVRDirectory"="\Home-server\TV-Opnamen\TempRec\
"FirstTemporaryBackingFileName"=""
"DeleteRingBufferFiles"=dword:00000001
"RingBufferFileName"=""
The problem will be solved when this TempRec folder can be replaced to
another location like F:\TempRec
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media
Center\Service\Video\Tuners\DVR\IO\Writer]
"DVRDirectory"=" F:\TempRec \
"FirstTemporaryBackingFileName"=""
"DeleteRingBufferFiles"=dword:00000001
"RingBufferFileName"=""
In MCE2005 I could easly change the location of this tempRec folder so I
don’t understand why this isn’t possible in Vista anymore?
Taking a look in the computer management of the Home-Server (open files)
this is what the log says while Vista is recording.

When stopping the recording and refreshing the open files list the log says:
Open File Accessed By Type # Locks Open Mode
G:\TV-Opnamen\TempRec\.TmpSBE ALEX Windows 0 Write+Read
G:\TV-Opnamen\TempRec\TempSBE\MSDVRMM_4039540896_6553600_54 ALEX Windows 0 Write+Read

This means that Vista still writes data to the TempRec folder even when
there is no recording or MCE window open.
Find me a way to change the location and the problem is solved I guess.
