NPVR tray running, shows nothing recording, but not correct

[Ricknextpvr]

Had to do a reinstall on v5 in Windows.  Everything is working fine, and tray icon was changing color and showing correct status - yesterday.

Today I went to watch the news, and saw tray icon wasn't colored.  Checked, nothing running.

Open V5 and saw news was recording, and watched it fine.  Yet tray shows it's not running?

Edit - I rebooted, and now it is the correct Green. Ideas?

Was it just showing a gray icon?

You might need to post the logs when it's doing that. Hopefully I'll find some clues in there.

Yes, it was just gray. I could click on it, and it showed the 4 tuners, but nothing happening, even though a recording was going on. I rebooted, and it showed green (when not recording).

I can confirm this on my installtion. Also in the Web Interface the tuners do not show anything, but records are working.

I think it has to do with changing the service behavior. If you restart the PC it is correct, but if the PC enters standby and wakes up a few times, this bahavior occurs. But it is only optical, everything is working.

That explanation is accurate.  I don't recall this when I initially installed it, but I may be recalling incorrectly.

Log files attached

[Ricknextpvr]

Just recorded a show that ended 10 minutes ago.  Noticed that the tray indicator had gone from gray to green.  Attaching logs now so you can compare the grayed out logs with the green logs right after the recording.  I did NOT reboot between logs.

Those logs show the same error I have seen in many logs in this release. I suspect after a resume the tray app isn't trying to reset the socket.

I'm not 100% sure, but this might fix it.

Would I rename the old DLL in the Client subdirectory and then put this in its place?

Do I then reboot the computer?

Yes and Yes ... The dll should also be replaced in the Program Files\NextPVR folder
