PostProcessing not running, recording marked as recording service not running

[Reddwarf]

I have a strange problem at one computer, I start a recording from the tv guide using quick record, I can see that the file grows, but npvr markes the recording as "Recording service not running at recording time", however the file is fully playable. The Nrecord.log has some error saying:

Code:

Unexpected error saving metadata: String cannot be of zero length.
Parameter name: oldValue
2015-05-23 14:15:01.762    [DEBUG][9]    Invalid file passed to StartPostProcessing(): ''

but the PostProcessing.bat is present and accessible.

The cause isn't clear in your logs.

This patch adds additional logging, and should tell us more.

But, according to the famous law of Murphy it did not happen when I wanted it to. I'll keep trying...

It looks like it might be related to something that you did mid-way through the recording, which caused the recording service to reload the schedule. I'm not sure what exactly though.

Yes I updated the recording and reduced the postpadding from 15 to 5 minutes. But that should not caus all tis havoc??
