Not recording but know that tuner gets signal

[ydekmekji]

all my recent recordings have this error message: "No errors, but no data delivered. This is usually because the device failed to lock a signal." Problem is that I don't know how to test this because it's locking a signal fine on live tv. logs attached.

Maybe stupid question, but have you tried to reboot?

hard disk full? npvr has no disk space management or detection, so it will just keep trying to write data even when there's zero space left. the "no data delivered" message really means the recording file is zero length, not that it truly received no data from the tuner.

livetv will still work on a full hard drive, at least until you try to pause or skip back.

if that's not it, have you tried another recording since testing with livetv? I notice your recordings thursday, friday and saturday morning all reported "locked=0, present=0, strength=0, quality=0", while your livetv tests after 4pm saturday show reasonably good signal.

as an aside, you and I must both be in the same area; not only do you have the same TV stations as I do, they're on the same QAM channels as mine and even the same service ID's. So we must be on the same cable company (Time Warner), and maybe even the same city (Orange?).
