No Tuners Availbale - MVP

[fire]

I get this error (No Tuners Availbale ) when I try to watch Live TV on my MVP. When it happens my recordings for the day fail too, its as though something happens earlier in the day which breaks the tuners and no more recording or live TV work.

My system is XP running 1.2.9. It records some shows in the early am, usually I watch some in the morining, then more shows recorded in the evening, and more watching in the evening too.

This error is happening once or twice a week and I can't recreate it, I just wait a few days and it happens.

I have uploaded some logs here:

It maybe that there has been a crash or error somewhere and the recording service thinks its using a tuner.

Its really a problem in that there seems to be no checks to see if the recording service is actually being used to release the tuner in cases of failure. So if it was playing tv or recording and PVR crashes then you try and watch again (or record) then the tuner is unavailable.
You can see from the tray if the tuner is busy and also restart the recording service.

I have narrowed this error down to when I turn off the MVP with the remote while I am watching Live TV. I have two DVB-S tuners, so if I do this twice, both tuners become unavailable and I have to reboot my gbpvr server.

Is there any way gbpvr can detect when this occurs and stop the tuner gracefully?

It'll usually copy with the MVP suddenly disconnecting (like turning it off).

If you reproduce the problem and post the logs, I'll take a look.
