Recording Service Starts Randomly

[skate15e]

I am running 98.8 and have a strange problem. The recording service seems to be starting at random time and not allowing me to view other channels in live tv. I am using live tv preview (ie. not timeshifting the tv). When I exit GBPVR the recording continues until I manually resart the recording service. If i look in the recording tab in GBPVR there are no in process recordings listed. Any ideas? If there is another thread addressing this issue just point me in the right direction (I don't seem to be able to find it). Thanks for the help.

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

Here are the log files from today. I started GBPVR, entered live tv without timeshifting enabled. I then exited live tv and tried to watch another channel from the tv guide screen. I got the error that there were no tuners available and that I could only a currently recording channel. After exiting GBPVR the icon in the sys tray still indicated recording. I then manually restarted the recording service. Thanks for the help and fast reply!

Just checking to see if you found anything in the error logs. Thanks.

I saw an error with the lcdsmartie-plugin (whatever that is)

Code:

I would disable it and see what happens.

Sorry I dont think I saw your reply earlier. Can you zip and attach a complete set of logs immediately after it happens?

Here are the new error logs. I started gbpvr and went to live tv. When I exited live tv and then tried to watch a channel thru tv guide, the recording service started recording the last channel I watched on live tv. I have preview mode set so it will not start recording when I start watching tv. Thanks again for taking a look at these logs.

Sorry, I cant see any obvious error in your logs.

Thanks for taking a look. I now have two tuners so it should not be as much of an issue. Great program you have here, keep up the great work!
