Recording does not stop on time

[Jim Chapman]

Hi,
I've been having intermittent troubles with recordings not stopping on time. In some cases, the recording carries on (i.e. the file keeps on growing). In others, the recording finishes but the tuner card is not released at the end.

It particularly seems to happen when I'm trying to record a series of consecutive programmes.

Here is an example from today.
Pokemon Diamond and Pearl was scheduled to record:
1st episode 7:00 to 7:25
2nd episode 7:25 to 7:55
3rd episdoe 7:55 to 8:25
at 11:06, I checked episodes 1 and 2 had recorded, size not changing, file modified times 7:27 and 7:55, but 'Hauppauge Tuner 1' was still busy and showing on status display as recording 'Pokemon Diamond and Pearl'.
The 3rd episode had not recorded. 'Recordings' screen showing it as 'Failed'

At the same time, Match of the Day was scheduled to record 7:40 to 9:00
at 11:06 I noted file size was still changing, access time 7:39 and Happauge Tuner 2' busy recording it.

Log files attached.

Please let me me know if you have any ideas about a solution for this bug. Otherwise it's a great piece of software (and keep up the good work!!).

By the way, the schedule of programming recurs weekly, and it looks next week we will have exactly the same set of things trying to record, so the problem may repeat. If there's any further monitoring or fact-finding you'd like me to try then, please let me know.

Thanks,

Jim

Update: I have now upgraded to version 1.3.11 and the problem has not recurred since then. Last weekend I saw exactly the same pattern of recording times as previously had caused a problem, and this time it worked fine.

So I think this is fixed in 1.3.11.

A big vote of thanks to the developer(s).
