NPVR 2.03 Pending is Empty

[sub]

Thanks for your work and the update sub.
These are recurring recordings throughout the week, but there was not one due yesterday so I entered a one-off quick record for the same day and it made no difference.

Are they recurring manual recording's or from the tv guide? Either way, hit the 'update epg' button then zip and attach the npvr.log and nrecord.log and I'll take a look.

The recordings are programmed from the TV guide. The zip file is attached.

You've got several recurring recordings shown in the logs? Is there a specific on you want me to focus on?

Also, did you schedule these problem recordings from the TV Guide screen?

I would have thought that the problem is not program specific, but since you ask I guess Bones will be first choice thanks.

Also, did you schedule these problem recordings from the TV Guide screen?

Yes I did schedule them from the TV Guide screen.

Here I can see it looking for episodes of Bones, and finding them, but not scheduling them because they're not on the days specified by the recurring recording. The recurring recording is only looking for episodes on Sunday.

Did you really schedule this season recording from the NPVR built-in TV Guide? I'm pretty sure it wouldnt have set a valid day. Are you sure this recurring recording wasnt scheduled from a plugin, or imported from GBPVR?

It seems that Bones was an unfortunate choice. Sometime (last year I guess) I must have chosen 'Record All Episodes' so not only was it doing the current series on Thursday's and a rerun on Sunday's, but also the repeats on TV3 PLUS1. I've deleted all instances then reprogrammed it using the TV Guide for "Record This Season (Weekly This Time Slot)" and checked that it appears only once in Recurring and Pending of the main window. However it still does not show up in Pending Recordings when selecting Show Status after right clicking on the NPVR icon in the taskbar . Updated logs are attached.

Now it looks like its scheduled an episode on thursday.

That's correct. But 'Pending Recordings' when selecting Show Status after right clicking on the NPVR icon in the taskbar is empty.

Does it shows in the Recordings screen Pending list?

Pending recordings in NTRAY has been disabled for a long time now, you'll have to look at Pending in Recordings.
