Cleanup TV recordings works only after I deleted one manually (1 Viewer)

[milagroso]

Hello all,

I'm not sure where to address this bug (?), therefore I'm posting it here.

When -in MyTV, Recordings - I press the button 'Cleanup' (in german: Aufräumen), at first nothing happens. Only after I deleted any of the displayed recordings, then I get the normal functionality (a dialog offering me 4 combinations of watched and invalid recordings to be deleted).

Is this a TV-Server issue or a client issue or even a skin issue? Any ideas how to find the reason for it?

in advance

this was an issue until recently.

If a program was deleted from the hard drive but remained in the database then MP wouldn't be able to delete any programs if that was at the top of the list.

If you had posted any log files we could have confirmed that by the entries this error makes.

Newer versions of MP (within last couple of weeks) have the problem resolved.

Hello Marcusb,

You're too fast to me - or I'm too slow... I didn't expect to get direct help in this general forum.

I just reproduced the behaviour and scanned my log files - I found only few traces, but maybe You see more. Here's the relevant excerpts:

tv.log (shows me that at 20:49:34 I successfully deleted one recording by pressing '0')

MediaPortal.log (I assume it tells me that at 20:49:30 the expected dialog box popped up)

However I don't see any trace of my first pressing 'cleanup' some seconds before. All other logfiles don't show relevant information for this timeframe.

Does this help?
