Unscheduled recordings

[xsilvergs]

I keep finding unscheduled recordings that have titles like this:- gbepg-TC23,489834,0,0,8.mpg.

I've also had a few occasions where I get something recorded twice.

I've also had a few occasions where the recording starts 30 minutes late.

Any ideas?

I can't help with the other two issues but I think this one relates to temp files created when you use a DVB EPG. They're supposed to be deleted after they've been processed but I seem to remember some versions (one version?) of GB-PVR had a bug which didn't clean them up properly.

Cheers,

Post the logs showing these situations, and details about what times it should have recorded and I'll take a look.

Thanks to you both for replying.

One film I recorded has the title "Calendar Girls_20081224_20302215.mpg" there is another "Calendar Girls_20081224_20302215-2.mpg". There was another program "The real Italian job" or something similar which was recorded twice but when I played it, it started halfway through.

Thank you.

You logs dont go back that far. This typically happens if the device failed to lock onto a signal. After 30 seconds and the recording isnt growing (no signal) it tells the device to restart the recording.

Post the logs next time it happens though, and I'll take another look.

I cant see this show in your logs. When did this occur? You logs only cover 8:22pm 3rd Jan - 8:45am 4th Jan.
