[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1285837, member: 141969"] I have tested it now. [LIST] [*]I used my test system that I had not booted for several weeks, so the EPG was empty. I used "Refresh DVB EPG" in "Manual Control" in "TV Server Config" to grab the EPG using the idle grabber for 15 minutes (and waiting a further 20 minutes for the database updates to finish). [*]I then started the MP client and scheduled 10 series using "every time on every channel". A couple of the series each had about 50 episodes in the 7-day EPG, the remainder had typically 2 to 4 episodes in the EPG. [*]I then grabbed the EPG again using the idle grabber for 15 minutes. [*]Before/after each step I took a screen shot of "Resource Manager" showing how much memory TV Server was using. [/LIST] The outcome of all this is that no memory leak was indicated -- at all points in the test sequence the memory consumed by TV Server was less than 100 MB (which I think is typical for TV Server). I did not test the timeshift grabber, so it is possible that the memory leak exists there. [USER=168121]@Berney[/USER] : If you frequently encounter this problem, all that I can suggest is that you try changing some of the settings and seeing what effect they have; e.g. disable the timeshift grabber and use only the idle grabber for a day or two, and then reverse those settings and try that for a day or two.
