New Problem - Zombie Recording

[Graham]

Is Lao Pan's solution the one which will work without having to delete and start again?

Editing the recordings xml file should work and might be quicker but I shall be deleting and recreating my recordings through the NextPVR interface ... I am much less likely to cock something up if I do it through NextPVR.

I'm pretty sure I have this fixed for the next build. Unfortunately I've changed versions of the development tools, so can't provide a patch, but will try to get the new build out as soon as I can.

I am taking it this is in the new 4.1.0 - we can go back to CollectEIT>true and use DVB/ATSC epg?

Bulk Mapping from DVB/ATSC to XMLTV worked fairly well. (Had to map a few channels by hand)
There is a problem where there are multiple versions of the epg for a channel in the xmltv file with the same name you only have a single entry in the bulk map dropdown list.
This caused a problem on 2 channels - on one the epg showed [No show details]was empty and on the other it showed [To continue watching you need to retune] (for the first 48 hours) then started showing [No show details]
i'm guessing these multiple entries are what was causing the crashes - the PSB1 epg takes about15 minutes to collect and produces a 55Mb - ish XMLTV file covering the southern half of the UK. The COM7 & 8 Muxes are meant to have the whole of the UK!

Bulk Mapping back from XMLTV to DVB/ATSC does not work. Changing the dropdown list in the bulk map screen would not stick - always set the channels to None. In the end I had to go into each details menu and change it there. I'm just glad I don't have 16000 channels :eek:

One last previous work around Question. Can we now set the Volume control settin back to None or does it have to be Internal still?

CollectEIT>true is working for me on Mendip with 4.1.0.

Yes.

If you can supply a sample xmltv like this, I'll take a look.

Yes, should be able to to.

I've gone back to the NPVR Native OTA guide. But if you think it would be of use to you Sub, I could grab an XMLTV dump of one of the Muxs.

Ok - don't worry about it.
