Preventing Duplicate Recordings (2 Viewers)

[jameson_uk]

Any news on this? I am having the same problem with multiple recordings of the same show.

Can you please post your logs

Here are the logs. When you e.g. search for "raus aus den schulden" you will find recordings on 2011-09-28 at 21:13 and on 2011-09-29 at 0:28. Thanks for your help!

OK please can people try the attached

• Stop TV Service
• Rename TVService.exe in MP folder
• Place TVService.exe from attachment into MP folder
• Restart TV Service

This will not make any difference except it will add some extra logging.

Please try and reproduce this with this executable and post logs.

The TVService doesn't start. I am using the MePo 1.2.0 final.

arse..... I am on my dev laptop with no TV server setup so can't check but appears I have something hanging around my local code.

MM if you are there patch is attached. This is the only place the item that is logged is written so can only be as a result of that if statement. Are you able to compile a working version (sorry is bed time here)

Edit: One final attempt which may work

 

[foxbenw]

that works. there are some e4 and e4+1 big bang theory's on a bit later. will hopefully come back in the morning.

Hi
Files attached.
2 recording.csvs because i noticed that end time = start time in the recordings table before the recording has finished. Don't know if that changes anything but have included it in case it means something.
Have I missed anything?

Those logs do not actually show the same thing as before (except that the program was recorded).

That said you do have

2011-09-30 18:28:03.960694 [scheduler thread(10)]: TvWishList TvServer: Starting ProcessFileRenaming - file=C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV server\TvWishList\FileRenameXML.xml

As above, renaming the file will make MP forget it exists (unless TVWishList sorts this out in the database directly).

I need logs showing the "expect previous failure and try to resume..." message you were getting before. If the option to prevent duplicate recordings was still enabled with these logs then that is a different issue.

So I need logs using the replacement TV Service capturing the original issue (think you will need to disable TVWishList to make this happen)

Hi
Ok. I will disable tvwishlist. But I haven't renamed the files, and check for duplicates is ticked.
