Problem watching in progress recordings on PC client.

[JP23]

Hi,

I'm having a problem when watching in-progress recordings on a PC client. When the program finishes recording, playback stops abruptly on the client, even though it's some way behind and should keep playing for some time. I'm then unable to play the recording at all until I restart the recording service on the server. I was able to reproduce the problem on the first attempt.

I upgraded to the latest version, and applied the four current patches at the weekend. I'm sure that this behaviour wasn't occurring before then.

Logs are attached.

Does this new patch help? http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...post434809

Unfortunately not, I replaced the file on the client and the server and got exactly the same behaviour.

Should the client be using Timing.Info on in-progress recordings? They don't on the NMT.

Code:

2012-04-10 20:22:24.060    [DEBUG][1]    Got Timing.Info from server
2012-04-10 20:22:24.064    [DEBUG][1]    Server's Timing.info reports duration 316667ms

No - and that is exactly what the patch mentioned above is supposed to stop. It definitely worked in my tests.

I just restarted the recording service after copying the file. I'll restart both machines and test again.

I have restarted both machines and re-tested, and the same thing happened.

I think this patch will fix it. Let me know how you get on.

Thank you for looking into it.

Not sure when I'll get a chance to test it though... perhaps someone else can report back if it's working?

I tried it on one recording and it worked

thanks Sub!
