Scheduling though the box not working properly

[nasty_b]

Hey,

I'm having problems making schedulings through the actual interface in GBPVR.

Before I start, I'm running version 0.95.16 of GBPVR and the latest version of the web interface.

For example:

I go to a show in the TV Guide in GBPVR (lets say The Simpsons, where the new episodes play at 8pm on Sundays on channel 3) and then I click on OK to get the information, I go to record and then I select Record Season (all weekly airing, this timeslot). Theres two episodes of The Simpsons that play back to back on Sundays, one at 7:30 and one at 8:00. Both episodes get highlighted in red. This is weird since I only want to record the 8-8:30 timeslot. I check in the Recordings section in GBPVR and it says that both episodes are pending, and in reoccuring it says that its reoccuring (the time on it is the first episode from 7:30-8:00).

Thats not all, when I go see whats going on with this on the web scheduling (manage recordings), the status says "Reoccurring" and the air date says "Season 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM" (which would explain why both episodes are highlighted, but it says different in the GBPVR interface). And like it should, both episodes of The Simpsons are listed to record.

And last thing is that when I cancel the recording through the tv guide, the recordings aren't pending anymore, but they are still reoccuring which I assume means they won't record this week, but they will record next week (which I assume is correct).

It seems as though I can only get recordings to work properly if I schedule them through the web. If I schedule through the web everything works perfect and all the times and everything are correct.

So in conclusion, I think it has something to do with the huge time interval of the timeslot its supposed to record the recordings, which is quite frustrating...please help! Thanks

EDIT: One more question, I was told by increasing the "Minute Slice" in the config on the web interface would make the missing vertical lines re-appear in the guide, I was wondering what exactly "accuracy of program layout" means. I changed it to 15 and now all the colors and pictures are gone, everything is white and messed up. Thanks

This is normal. The timeslot recordings will by default record any shows that starts within +/- 90 minutes. This is done to accomodate slight changes to the schedule each week, like the show starting late or early for some special reason.

If you're unhappy with this timeslot, you can change the size of it in the config.xml file.

(this setting will be 2hrs, for users that have been using GB-PVR for several months, and havnt explicitly changed it - since it was the old default)
