cancel manual recording?

[pBS]

i can't seem to cancel manual recordings, they restart recording after i cancel!!

i have to hit cancel,re-click on pending show and try to hit cancel again really fast, usually works about 4th time or so...and i get xxxx-1.mpg xxxx-2.mpg xxxx-3.mpg xxxx-4.mpg
also there's a long pause as soon as i hit cancel, can't do anything within gbpvr...
also this seems to happen when quick-scheduling a second show from tvguide...but may be diff. issue..
just seems like db is not committing data right away and gb waits for it...
only happens on second quick record.[record button]

after first quick record in guide, which is quick, even trying to pull up show info is delayed by about 20 seconds or more...like it's waiting for db to get updated..
any ideas?

logs where the delay is..30 secs or more..

It looks like something caused your database to be locked. If you reboot it'll clear it.

After that, try to find a reliable set of steps to reproduce it, then I'll try to reproduce it here (and fix it).

i'll have to wait a few hours cuz i have stuff recording, but will do..
i had just rebooted about an hour before...

I don't know if these set of logs would help. I did find the other thread:

http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...+recording

But I've come across attempting to cancel a scheduled recording and it kept continuing, resuming the recording with a new file.

My case PST times.

scheduled to record Jimmy Kimmel ~ 12:05 AM
- I did this from my PC with pvrx2.exe
- about 12:50 AM I attempt to cancel to Quick record another show
- cancel , didn't seem to respond, popped up from the UI
- SEe these two files

Jimmy Kimmel Live_20080731_00060106-2.mpg
Jimmy Kimmel Live_20080731_00060106.mpg

I ended up selecting the other recording, getting prompted for cancelling J K L, and choose to do so, then it kicked off recording the new show "Late Night With Conan OBrien".

I posting with these details to see if it's the same bug as the 1st referenced Thread or may provide something more interesting. Like a locked file.? you mentioned.

FYI I did have a previous hang crash of PVRx2 on my PC, that I had to kill with task manager, perhaps that resulted in the lock/issue when attempting to cancel. Anyway, maybe the logs are useful or not.

Thanks.

yes, a reboot does clear it, but for some reason it's always locked after a quick-schedule..
this has been happening for quite some time for me...over several upgrades..
[and even on fresh builds]
my epg isn't that large [11meg]
it's almost like the previous sql statement isn't completing and letting go of database..

what's the ini setting to see the sql statements in logs? [n/m, found it]
[to see if it's a malformed query itself]

i made sure no other utilities are accessing the db...no lcd etc. have no plugins loaded...
will see if i see anything in the query..
is there any way to flush and clean the db without losing any data?

Reboot, then stop the recording service, delete the entire contents of the logs subdirectory, then restart the recording service, then reproduce the problem and zip&attach the logs directory and I'll take a look.

here's the logs after a reboot and delete...
i started rec service, started pvrx2 wth hip remote, scheduled a manual recording on usa,
waited a bit till it was recording and comskipping, went to recordings screen,hit pending, select show, [shows as recording] hit cancel...

box never fully disappears,[last frame gets stuck onscreen] and long pause where nothing else can be done..
then i tried quickly to cancel again but if you don't cancel before it actually starts recording, it won't cancel at all...and you'll get yet another file...
third time i beat it...

i'm left with 105 USA_20080801015000.mpg, 105 USA_20080801015000-2.mpg and 105 USA_20080801015000-3.mpg plus comskip stuf for each...
comskip seems to cancel fine each time..[run from postproc.bat]
