Manual recording does not work (1 Viewer)

[matejdro]

I never said its issue in MediaPortal code. Its probably something wrong with my setup and I'm looking for some advice what could be wrong.

Does it happen with all channels? I would delete channels and rescan.

I don't get to pick channel, it stops before that. So I have no idea what channel is offending.

@matejdro
Do you have any custom channel groups?
Please try to reproduce by first starting TV, then attempting to create the schedule.

I have the suspicion that the exception is in the first part of the function.
This:

IList<GroupMap> channels = TVHome.Navigator.CurrentGroup.ReferringGroupMap();

...this:

GUIListItem item = new GUIListItem(chan.ReferencedChannel().DisplayName);

...or this:

Channel selectedChannel = (channels[dlg.SelectedLabel]).ReferencedChannel();

When i have do the test, it show lastest channel list from latest selected Group
So if no group involved or something can maybe trigger this issue
Good finding mm

Tried with TV on, same error.

I'm using default All Channels group. I just noticed I had one empty group, but deleting it did not change anything.

My suggestion still stands. Delete all of your channels. Rescan. Then try. I know it is a pain, but there is probably something wrong in one of your channels. It will be hard to work out what it is.

Also, you could try searching the forum for 'repair TV database'. This will tell you how to check for faults and fix them.

Still would be nice to figure out where the exception actually comes from. If this fixes the problem we don't know if it's a really bug that comes up in his system ..

You can always for testing create a new channel DB (the testing one with fresh scan) and go back to old one with all your current setting

To do that :

1) Stop TVService (from command prompt (net stop tvservice) or setuptv from manual control).
2) Start this command line : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\setuptv" /configure-db
3) Default db is : 'MpTvDb' change the name to 'MpTvDbTEST' -> Click SAVE.

It will create a new TV db schema.
4) Start SetupTV and start to scan and try again if you et the exception.

If all is ok or if you always get the error, we know that it's not a db issue

So you can come back to your original db by doing 1) 2) 3) and 4) (just put your old db name 'MpTvDb' in part 3)

Seb.

This is the shortcut that you can use for command line
