Can anyone advise me on what to do about this issue?

OK, Ive installed that new version, but the same problems still exist!
So what now?

Have you checked the feedback/hints from @CyberSimian I could not find any reaction to that.
Please upload new log files with version 2.4.1. Your logs were full of different issues, even though your main problem is not solved some things might have changed.

Please be a bit more patient, you can not expect reactions directly. We all are in forum after work in our free-time and your answers also took more than 1 day

Hi, Thank you for your reply, sorry if I seemed to eager.
Sorry for my delay(s) in getting back to you, but I have been monitoring the HTPC.
As requested, please see the latest log file below.

Feedback:
I thought I'd summerised that reply, in my reply(4), but to elabourate, eg:
Nothing has changed since the original install about 18m ago.
Picture quality good, even on Live TV.
Aeriel goes to the HTPC.
TV connected via HDMI.

Main Problem Solved: ?
I think the main problem has been solved.
I took a look at the logs myself, and found a comment near one of those failed test recordings,
that said: There is not enough space on the disk

So I opened Windows Explorer, and the HDD was full!
However: I would have expected MP to have warned me when the drive was getting to full to take further recordings ?

2.4.1:
After installing this everything was basically as before, except:

1: In the list of recorded programs:

a: Now, I dont get the white image of an eye, that indicated that a program had been partially, or completely watched.
So how do I get this to display?

b: In the righthand pane next to the program description,
I dont get a program screenshot, just the station logo.
So how do I get this to display?

2: When I view the main TV window, (the one that shows when you click on the TV icon in the lefthand margin)
The list of tiles on the extreem right, that show any future recordings:
the extreem right of those tiles dissappear very slightly off the screen.
So how do I correct this?

3: When I leave MP on, after about 10min the screen dims,
but before, you could see a faint image of that window,
but now it goes to black.
So how do I get this to display as before?

Many thanks for your help.

That's most important. Good the problem is solved!

I can see those, see b)
Maybe try to

• manually reimport the recording share once
• if not successful, remove the recording share once and add it again (normale it’s added automatically, because it’s defined in TV configuration tool)

b: In the righthand pane next to the program description,
I dont get a program screenshot, just the station logo.

Here it looks good @joecrow did you face this problem?

You need to navigate there, the content is scrollable and sometimes can fill 1.2 to 2 screen widths. It’s not incorrect, it’s by design.
Alternatively you can also use the menu editor "Info button / Menu key" on the TV-tile, change the order of the contents to bring recordings more to the front.
It is all described in Wiki.

There were several complaints about the screen saver, because it can cause burn-ins with plasma displays. Accordingly I nodified the screen saver to be almost black (also more energy friendly). There is only the possibility to switch the screen saver off or change the activation delay.

Ok, have a good vacation in Egypt Me might have to tell @high to turn off the automated flag for privacy reasons. Also everybody could see I was in netherlands. I think the flag should be related to the country entered and shown
