Red recording indication - quick question

[sub]

If you can zip and attach the minidump file, I'll see if I can get any details from it about the cause of your crash.

The recording service log has a number of the following lines repeated; what do they relate to?

2008-01-03 08:56:25.406 VERBOSE [7] RenewLease 2
2008-01-03 08:56:25.406 VERBOSE [7] forcing refresh of next 2 hour events for all capture sources
2008-01-03 08:56:25.406 VERBOSE [7] RenewLease finished (accepted - preview mode)

which it seemed to be doing every 0.5 seconds.

Its normal to get these. It happens while you're watching live tv.

This is the mini dump.

I was going to open it but I don't have the dumpchk installed.

I've just checked it but unfortunately it doesnt contain anything useful.

I'm not sure what is causing the pvrx2 crash but the gbpvr tray app crashed with the following event log.

Any ideas?

No, but as a general observation I've never seen report of the tray app crashing (ever), so maybe this is a sign you've got some machine stability problem? Flaky memory or something similar?

[fluffykeith]

Yes that is a possbility - its a new PC.

I did a memory test (memtest86) on the memory (3 passes all ok).

PVRX2 recorded 4 items last night, all ok (bit stuttery and blocky but I think thats what I was receiving). However when I came to play liveTV this morning I got a blank screen which returned to the menu after about 5s.

Restarting the recording service didn't help but I reselected the playback decoders in the config tool and then I was able to play liveTV.

I looked through the log and found this:

Post the GBPVRRecordingService-native.log that go with this one and I'll take a look.

[fluffykeith]

Here are the recordingservice.exe-native logs - but the I can't find the exact timestamp corresponding to the error.

[sub]

Sorry - I meant PVRX2.exe-native.log.

[fluffykeith]

The logs no longer go back that far.

But the attached one does have an error in it.

When it happens again I'll grab all the logs

cheers
