Undeletable, conflicting recordings at 00:00 on 01/01/0001

I've somehow got my GB-PVR installation into a state where it's got some "recurring" recordings marked as "conflicting", because it thinks that they are all concurrent at 00:00 on 01/01/0001! Unlike normal conflicts, there's no "Resolve" option for them, just "Delete", which doesn't do anything.

Any ideas what might be wrong? Dodgy EPG data (I'm using the XMLTV source because DVB-T EPG doesn't work for me at present), perhaps?

FYI, In order to fix this, I had to copy empty.db3 over gbpvr.db3, and re-configure everything. When I then re-entered the reoccurring schedules, they again said they were at 00:00 on 01/01/0001, so I repeated the process but this time "repaired" GB-PVR back to the vanilla 0.98.13b release after having deleted files replaced by patches - the scheduled recordings then entered correctly.

The two patches I had installed were a DVB EPG handling patch:

and the one to stop GB-PVR from re-rendering the menu in the background during live TV.

I've since re-applied the menu-rendering patch with no ill effects (but then I haven't added any new recordings since then). I don't think the problem was with my xmltv data, because selecting the bogus recordings showed the correct date & time information.

Where did you schedule the recordings from? TV Guide, search guide, web admin, some plugin etc?

I have a similar conflict. I have a single 01/01/0001 recording listed under Conflicts. I use Zap2It.com for my listings and have added all recordings through the Guide.

I downloaded the SQLite Database Browser mention in this thread to fix something else, and while I had it installed I browsed the RECORDING_SCHEDULE table to see if I could find the conflict. I found two season recordings for the program, so I deleted one. That fixed the problem.

I have the same issue as well. I use Zap2It.com for my listings and I know I've recorded it through the "Search Guide" interface.
