Quick Record Failing

[smajor]

For some reason, any time I go into the guide and choose to Quick Record something, that recording always fails. Scheduled Recordings work just fine.

I just set the config to Debug mode so I can duplicate and post the logs here if no one has seen this already. Thanks!

Reproduce the problem, then zip and attach the logs and I'll take a look.

Logs attached. Programs were:

Hells Kitchen 6/19/06 from 8-9pm and the same program from 9 to 10pm. Both were quick records and both failed.

This sounds like the problem _gl is having from this thread (where he quotes himself about the quick record):

Thank you!

What exactly are the steps to reproduce this? Were you watching live tv when you did this? The logs look like you might have been.

Yes, exactly. We were watching Live TV and the wife wanted to record those two programs which were a little later on. She did the Quick Record (one time record) from the guide and that was it. We likely walked away and left Live TV running right into the programs as the time approached. I do not know if we were on the channel we expected to record or not, if not, we'd expect that GB-PVR would go into the recording and boot us out of Live TV since we only have one tuner card.

I have noticed a similar problem. I have valid mpg files on my hard drive, so the recordings seems to have been successful, but looking at the entries under recordings shows them as having failed. Here's a snippet of my logs:

Guess which ones show up as having failed? Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Diary of a Madman and Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy - the three entries that aren't listed with their full directory paths. Looking at your logs, it seems like you have the same thing happening:

No paths for the Hell's Kitchen recordings. Mmmm, if I'm right about this being the problem, any idea how to fix it?
