[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1176927, member: 82144"] [USER=151666]@gpnash[/USER] Thank you for your feedback. It sounds like you have some exceptional problems with your setup. I'm absolutely certain TV Server's CableCARD tuner support code hasn't changed since MP 1.5 when it was introduced. Therefore I struggle to understand how the problems you described could have been introduced between 1.7 (1.7.1) and 1.13. Either way, I'd encourage you to file bug reports: [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/forms/mp1-bug-report.1/respond[/URL] MP 1 only supports MySQL and SQL Server, so how did you assess SQLite? :S True, it's possible that TV Server could become confused as to the state of a CableCARD tuner. However I'd have only expected that to happen in exceptional error conditions. If it were happening "often" as you described, I'd definitely consider that to be a problem that ought to be reported. That sounds odd. Under what conditions would the ETH 6 restart itself? Actually TV Server should "know what to do" because it has been specifically designed to cope with tuner disconnection. Without more detail I honestly can't imagine how even a tuner disconnection would cause TV Server to generate an unknown error. If you file a bug report then we can investigate whether TV Server can handle the situation better. First and foremost: TV Server should not be "abending". Please file a bug report for this! This would be expected given the circumstances. The tuner status shown by TV Server is the status from the perspective of TV Server. In other words, if TV Server shows "idle" it's because TV Server is not using the tuner at the time. This does not mean that the tuner itself is actually idle. The situation you described - TV Server crashes and the tuner is left playing - is only one example of a situation where TV Server's tuner status does not reflect the actual tuner status. Another example would be when other software uses the tuner. If we can stop TV Server from crashing then the tuner won't be left in an inconsistent state, and that would resolve the problem. So again: please file a bug report so the crashing can be investigated. TV Server is not able to reset CableCARD tuners even if it wanted to. There's no such capability/function available in the tuner access/control interface. [/QUOTE]
