When I playback any show from my Recorded TV. Playback stops without user intervention. It's as if I pressed the stop button. I tried this with multiple recordings and had the same issue.

TV> Recorded TV> Choose Recording> Start Playback.

    Can you try with LAV Video and Audio Codec for TV playback?
    Please also try DefaultDirectSound Device as Audio Renderer.

    Hello gonzo90017

    When I playback any show from my Recorded TV. Playback stops without user intervention. It's as if I pressed the stop button. I tried this with multiple recordings and had the same issue.
    Can you absolutely confirm it happens with all recordings?

    I can see that you might think it is happening with "The Life of Muhammad"... but actually, to me it looks like that recording is playing out in full. It is just a really short recording for some reason. The fact that the name of the file is "The Life of Muhammad _ - 50 Pbs - 2013-08-20_2.ts" suggests the recording has multiple parts for some reason.

    I don't see it happening with "NFL Football - 5 CW - 2013-08-23.ts" which you played earlier.

    More specific information needed please... :)

    Change that to most recordings.
    "The Life of Muhammad _ - 50 Pbs - 2013-08-20_2.ts"
    The 2 is because it was a 3 part series. The recording was 1 hour long.

    If you can find the recording "Cachito del Cielo" in the logs you would see that playback stopped multiple times without user intervention.

    I can see "Cachito de Cielo" - I assume that is the program you mean.
    There are two recordings that you play. One from 22/08 and the other from 21/08. Which one should I be looking at?

    Yes that's the one. The thing is that the wife was the one watching the show so i'm not sure which one it is. :oops:

    Right, no worries - think I can guess what is going on regardless...
    Each time the recording is stopped I see MP has detected that the audio renderer is lost. So:

    MP detects that the audio renderer returns shortly afterwards:

    In other words, the reason that playback is stopping is because MP thinks the audio renderer is going away. If there is no renderer to play audio then continuing to attempt to play the recording may cause a crash. So, MP is stopping playback to avoid a crash.

    The way to solve this would be to stop the connection with the bluetooth audio device from dropping out.

    I note...
    There is a setting in MP configuration that relates:
    http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_...guration/11_General/5_Startup_Resume_Settings

    "stop playback on removal of an audio renderer"

    If you untick that, playback will continue. However as previously mentioned, if that is the device that MP is using to play audio then unticking could cause MP to crash.

    Hope that helps. :)

    Forgot about the bluetooth adapter. I was trying to get bluetooth headphones working for night time listening. :cool:

    The thing is that this never happened with MP 1.4. It just started happening yesterday when I upgraded to 1.5.
    This also (at least until now) has not affected live tv.

    I'll untick the device for now. :)
