I have a couple of issues.I'm not sure if they're related, or not, but here it goes.The first is Windows Explorer hanging then crashing when trying to load a .ts file.You see i've been trying to empty out and save all of my recordings from my Tivo.I downloaded and installed a program called kmttg(along with Java if that's relevent).

For a while it worked great.Some of the recordings, for whatever reason, won't play, but I just kind of thought I wouldn't be able to save all of them.Even the ones that I successfully get off generally don't play that smoothly.That seems to be becasue it saves them in the .ts format.I've always had that problem with that file type, but not any others.

A few days ago I started having this problem where it would finish downloading and output the file, but the folder it was in would take forever to load it.If I right-clicked on it the folder would freeze.Nothing I click on would work.I couldn't move, rename, or delete it and would basically have to wait for Explorer to crash to have control again.Even if I restart Explorer in the task manager, as soon as I open the folder the file's in it starts all over again.Eventually it would finally let me delete the file after an hour, or more.I don't know why it keeps doing this, or why it finally let's me do what I want with the file after some random amount of time.

The other problem that also just started out of nowhere is Explorer using an unusually high percentage of my CPU.I open just a few folders, not even necessarily the one I output the .ts files to, and right away I hear the fan spin up in my tower and my CPU usage is at 13%-20% and it stays that way even after I close them.Ideally there's someone on this forum familiar with kmttg, or atleast .ts files who can help me figure this out.
