I seem to be alone here, but since changing to 97.7 I have had a number of failed recordings - it almost seems as if the machine isn't willing to work nights, as it doesn't appear to be too keen on doing the epg updates or file conversions either - I am preparing to revert for a bit before the WAF drops too low, but I thought I would see if it was just me.

I'm pretty sure I have a highly fubar-ed install, with a lot of programs that have been scheduled recently (before the upgrade) by my wife going through a week of the history channel etc and picked out interesting shows failing to record. These all seemed to transfer correctly when I changed to the new database, and display on the "upcoming recordings" display, but many of them simply don't record. It is almost as if the request has suddenly ceased to exist, as the recording logs don't seem to show any attempt to record them, and they don't even show up as failed recordings in the main program. It's only when using the web-server that you can see that various recordings haven't occurred.

I am using the default blue skin, and have no plugins at all in the plugin directory, (as well as choosing disable plugins in the config) so that shouldn't be a problem.

I have attached the logs, and the failed recordings are:
Kings and Queens: Wednesday, 17 May 2006, 12:30 p.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Kings and Queens: Thursday, 18 May 2006, 5:00 a.m. - 5:30 a.m.
Royal Deaths And Diseases: Thursday, 18 May 2006, 6:20 a.m. - 7:10 a.m.
Six Wives of Henry VIII: Thursday, 18 May 2006, 7:10 a.m. - 8:00 a.m.

and yet My Name is Earl and Bones recorded on the same tuner on Wednesday, 17 May 2006 at 8:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. respectively.

As I said however, the conversion processing which is supposed to occur between 3 and 7am also isn't happening, I seem to have to manually update the epg and often have to restart the config before the web-browser access will work, as well as my default mpeg2 decoders no longer working, so it generally sounds like a pretty munted install - I will try and reinstall everything later today, and if the problems continue I will revert to the previous version.

cheers,

tieke

I had a failed recording last night. I was watching before and during the show using LiveTV, and expecting to get kicked out as it started recording it, but it didn't happen. I scanned the logs, but no attempt to record it was mentioned anywhere - only in the Recordings screen did it show as 'failed'. Not seen that before the new release... I'll let you know if it happens again.

This has started to happen to me as well, you're not the only one. I'm at a loss to explain why some things record and some do not. This has only happened since 97.7 too. I'm not using any additional plug in eithers and looked through the survival guide to no avail.

If you've had this problem, please post your GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log and GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log, and include a comment to let me know what the recording was that failed, and the time it was supposed to record.

Attached are my logs, also in the zip archive you'll find a .txt titled "Known Failed Recording". I included program name, time, and date.

I was looking through the logs and noted:

5/20/2006 8:32:12 PM.453 VERBOSE [4] getValue: /settings/LoggingLevel : Error
5/20/2006 8:33:06 PM.234 ERROR [6] Unexpected error loading record schedule for next 24hours: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index
5/20/2006 8:33:06 PM.234 ERROR [6] Unexpected error loading record schedule for next 24hours: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index

I did import my exiting database when I upgraded to the new database of 97.7. I don't mind if I have to delete my existing databases and reinitialize them if that is what it takes to fix this, I'll just need some instruction.

Thank you sub!

Hi Sub,
I've got the same problem. Logs attached. Configuration with 1 tuner card (Ati550Pro).
Recording scheduled for 22.40-22.50 about 10 minutes before start time. 2 minutes pre-show padding and 10 minutes post-show padding set.
GbPvr started with LiveTV at 22.32. Record didn't start when LiveTV used, but started immediately when I closed LiveTV at 22.45.
GbPvr exit at 22.48.
Record stoped correctly at 23.00 (10 minutes post-show padding).
The lines with ERROR[12] inside GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log are in Polish, but it means exactly what was mentioned in previous post
"Unexpected error loading record schedule for next 24hours: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index". Looking at the time of the error (02.01) it doesn't have connection with lack of record start.

Can one of you guys reproduce the problem with the logging level set to Debug. When its set to Error, there is virtually nothing to go on.
