Delete "Watched" from XRecord menu = error?

[Laptop765]

Whenever I go into XRecord's menu to the Watched section to delete an episode I want to re-record, I select the show, hit delete and get "Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object." every single time. I then have to close and re-open GBPVR to continue working. It does end up deleting the show, but I have a batch of shows I want to re-record and was wondering how to clear this up so it doesn't take forever.

I believe you can use RecTracker at the command line to do what you want. Not sure what the argument is that needs to be passed to it though.

Thanks, I'll look into it, but to look up every episode and have to do that manually would be rather cumbersome in comparison to deleting it from the GUI, but I will look into it, thank you.

I think you can give it a title, or an episode. If you give it a title it'll delete all of the recordings that match that title.

So to wipe out say all Family Guy
rectracker -purge family guy
?

[jorm]

no, the purge will just trigger the remove of the duplicates. You are running the latest xrecord? There was a object reference bug in the version before the latest. If you are still having problems can you email me the gbpvr.exe.log so I can see where it is happening.

I know there's a way you can sill get it. It's pretty hard now, thx to your efforts when I've mentioned it in the past. I think it was some weird case where the watched had a poster and the normal folder did not (don't ask how that was, either), or it was where the file was some generic episode (the show description was used and no info about the actual episode).

Sorry for the lack of response, I was busy over the holiday and got sick towards the end. I do believe I am running the latest xrecord, but not sure how to verify. My gbpvr.exe.log is too long to post, but here is the part that I think the error occurs at.

Thanks.

I'm still not 100% sure that I'm running v.44, how can I double check? I'd install it now, but I have recordings ongoing. Installing xrecord again [the new version when my recordings are done] will preserve all my existing files, right?

[jorm]

yes. I will take a look at the stack trace.
