This morning, Time Warner cut out all qam channels, leaving us with basic broadcast. Sucks! I'd rather pay for Hulu and Netflix than cable... ok thats it
Sometimes the recording service stops on my machine. I still need to investigate this further. I've set the recording service to reboot whenever it stops working. When it happens, there's usually a failed recording. However, after a reboot the recording starts again, which is great. But in the recordings menu the entry stays "Failed", even though it's recorded. Not a big problem though.
I have two tuner cards, a PVR150 and a HVR1600. Some recordings have very distorted audio, and I suspect one of the tuner cards, but I can't tell which one. I've been poring over the log files trying to reconstruct which card was used to record which show, but I'm not having much luck.
It looks like it assigns a filter list for the first card (WINTV 418), and then uses that card until a second card is needed. Then it sets up the filter list for the second card (WINTV PCI II). From that point on, I can see the "AnalogRecorder stream count" go from 2 to 1 and back to 2 again, but there is no further information identifying which card is being used.
Can someone point me to information on how to read these log files? I have searched but not found anything.
I have run into some problems with a few scheduled recordings not completing due to the NPVR Recording Service stopping. I can run the service for days, and view live tv. When back to back recordings are scheduled is when the service will stop. It will record one, sometimes two subsequent recordings then stop.
I also use convertvideo.bat for converting to mp4's in order to view through my Roku media box. When the service stops working the conversion also halts, leaving me with a .ts file which I have to manually convert. The first daily scheduled recording will always convert, sometimes the second one will too. Could these be related, or is the problem strictly with the Windows 7 service?
it looks like the tuner just kept changing channels for some reason, i didn't see anything in the log file though... here's a sample of the .ts output it made: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=59SABTYY
i checked and the stations you see it switching between aren't even on the same broadcast frequency.
logs attached
I have been running my current gbpvr system for many years with no problems. About a month ago, it started failing on some recordings and others would say successful, but would be 0kb files.I am hoping that someone could help me out with this. I missed a show I really wanted to see tonight while my wife was able to record dancing with the stars (GRRRrrrrrrr.)I have 2 QAM digital cards and another analog tuner card. I am not sure if this is a hardware failure or something else. I have attached all of my logs.If it makes a difference, the show that failed that I wanted to watch was Terra Nova on channel 357 at 7:00.
Version is 1.4.7
I would be appreciative of any suggestions. Meanwhile, I will be googling like crazy trying to find a downloadable copy of the show I missed.
