Looks like NPVR recording services may have stopped this past Thursday morning. But none of the shows that failed to record (Thursday or Friday) showed under the recordings menu until after I rebooted the computer (on Saturday). Before I rebooted I was trying to delete another failed recording (due to lack of signal) and received the error in the attached screen shot. The restart solved that as well.
Is there a method to get notification for the failed recording service or to get it to recover automatically? I kind of missing feature in the older version that would have a list of recording shows / active tuners listed in the status tray.
On a slightly related note, I think one of my Avermedia dual-tuner cards was offline for several weeks until this past Wednesday morning (resolved during physically pulling the power cord from the computer), resulting in a few shows getting cut off early, such as the last 5-10 minutes of Telenovela and Lucifer (due to lack of available tuners). Should have had 6 tuners available, but only had 4 tuners working. The number of shows and padding specified would have required 5 tuners to work as planned. But short of checking the logs I had no other indication that a tuner was not functioning correctly.
Some type of in application alert, or an email alert in these instances would afford the opportunity to minimize their impact.
"Logs-stopped thursday morning.zip" are the latest from this morning (2-27-16)
"Logs- lucifer an telenovela get cut as end" is from Wednesday morning (2-24-16), not sure if they rolled off from the newer logs.
Thanks,
Matt
