[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1285806, member: 141969"] This is an interesting observation. I will test this, but I need to setup a test system first (I don't want to use my production system). One question: how are you obtaining the EPG? The reason that I ask this is that I would guess that TV Server actions "record every time on every channel" only when the EPG is obtained. This is when TV Server identifies the programmes to record, and is most likely to be the point at which the memory leak occurs. If you are using the EPG transmitted via DVB-T/T2 or DVB-S/S2, you may have the settings set inappropriately, causing TV Server to grab the EPG repeatedly, exacerbating the memory-leak problem. As an example, I use the DVB-T/T2 EPG, but I grab it only once per day, from a single channel (not from every channel). I have never used "record every time on every channel", so I don't know whether grabbing the EPG once per day would avoid the problem. Be that as it may, it is not likely that this problem will be fixed in the foreseeable future, as MP currently lacks anyone who has expertise in this area. Sadly, the most that can be hoped for is to identify a work-around. I regret that this is probably not the outcome that you wanted. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
