MediaPortal Version: 1.12.0

Description
Hi all,

MP 1.12 is installed. Using Titanius Skin.

This happens sometimes:

Open the TV Guide and press Record on a Show.
The Recording Window opens and shows the Show (or more than on of its a Serie)
Press OK or Record Button on the Show and nothing happens.

If i reminds me correct after a restart it works again. (Can´t test this right now because the PC is in use

Log are attached.

EDIT: Note to Siteadmin, the Bugreport Form does not allow to Upload Files.

EDIT 2: Should added mor Details when this Happens or not?

Hello!

I needed your MediaPortal.xml to confirm, but I think the reason was that MediaPortal did not have a "current channel"...

Thanks

I think I may have been wrong, because:

<section name="mytv">
...
<entry name="channel">RTL</entry>

Did you view a channel after attempting to start the recording?
Is the problem still happening?

 

[Brudertac]

We watched another Channel while we tried to set the Recording.

Have tested it right now and now it works.

- Test to setup a Record without another Channel running is fine.
- Test to setup a Record while watching another Channel is also fine.

But this was also the Problem in the Past. This happens just sometimes...

 

[mm1352000]

Hmmm, I suspected this.
Next time it happens, please go to the TV home section and check if there is a channel selected. I suspect there will not be. Then if you select a channel (ie. start watching any channel), the problem will go away.

You mean if a Channel is already running at the Time it should work? That was the Situation yesterday.... Watched one Channel, going into the Guide while watching that Channel and trying to setup a Recording...

I have had exactly the same issues a few times now.

No, you're not. I got the same problem from time to time.
A - somewhat strange - solution: If nothing happens when you press the OK or record button, use the menu, choose 'advanced recordings', then 'only once' and - wow - the red ball indicates that the recording has been successfully scheduled.
This might be a hint for someone who knows the internals better than I do.
(I experienced this with Titan, Default Wide und now with Streamed MP.)
