recurring recording sometimes doesn't

[sub]

It was whichever one you've set as device #2 in the capture source settings that had the problem.

thanks sub, the config lists

PVR 250 (this is really a 150) as #1
PVR 350 (a real 350) as #2

I remember now what happened during configuration many months ago... I had "only show devices detected in this machine" checked, and it only listed the 250, 250 w/FM, and the 350 as available. I selected 250 as #1, 350 as #2 and everything seemed to work ok.

Is a comparison of the drivers on the 2 CD's in order (but then I never loaded the driver when I put in the 150, the 350 was already operational at that point) or simply get the latest drivers from H's website?

I'm not sure what to suggest given the symptoms. I guess its worth trying the latest drivers.

...I guess its worth trying the latest drivers.

updated from "H's" website last night, verified LiveTV, but neglected to pick a show shortly in the future and let GBPVR auto record it...

This morning, I see that the same thing has happened, with the show "The District" at 7am-8am not recording automatically. "Dr Who" at 8am-9am, also did not record.

I zip'd the logs, but noticed the recording service at

6:59 says "System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory"
7:59 says "tuner in use... Moving to another..."
a few pages of this msg
8:00 it's trying to save the mpg file for the 7am "The District" show, but this file is not in it's "District" directory

there was another AccessViolation msg for the Dr. Who pending recording at 8am as well...

Have I muffed up the driver updates? I updated the PVR 350 drivers first, then the 150. But the 150 was a CD image, and I'm thinking now that it may have cleared the installed H-software and reinstalled from beginning, so the 350 drivers may not be there. The instructions seem to indicate that this will happen in their install.

As before, if I reboot, the situation appears to resolve itself.

I've rebooted now, and for GBPVR, right now, both tuners "seem to be" active and working properly. Right now, as they are concurrently recording (from GBPVR's pending queue), a 9am Dr. Who episode and a 9am News program are both "playable" from the pending list in GBPVR.

About 1 day after this last message, I did fallback the drivers to the set on the CDrom that came with my 350 board.

So far, no recording failures of this type.
