Error: Failed to start BDA Graph

[daneo]

Hi Sub,

I am seeing regular issues where this error message occurs before scheduled recordings. The only thing that I see where I can fix it is to reboot the system. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Dane

I couldnt see that error listed in your logs. Do you remember what time it happened?

I did see one thing:

03.10.2006 22:12:02.604 ERROR [16] Error starting PostProcessing.bat: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Access is denied

This is because you have IE7B3 installed. GB-PVR is unable to launch any system processes from the recording service. It can cause lots of things to fail (comskip, post-processing, EPG updates etc).

Hi Sub,

here's a slice from GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log

It sounds like the device is already in use.

I think I found it from some PowerCinema software that was loading in the background. Is there any way to see what is accessing the BDA interface if it happens again?

Thanks,
Dane

No, not that I know of.
