[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1158895, member: 82144"] Hello Jim Thank you for the log files. I can see what you're referring to. The direct cause of the problem appears to be the following sequence of events, which occur whenever TV Server starts [on system boot] or resumes [after standby/hibernate]: [LIST=1] [*]Tuner detection starts. [*]Your Ceton tuner is detected within 10 seconds or so. [*]Approximately 55 seconds later TV Server detects that your tuner is removed (ie. is no longer available). [*]Approximately 30 seconds later TV Server detects that your tuner is available again. [/LIST] The problem occurs if a recording starts between steps 2 and 3. At the time that the tuner is removed, the recording is stopped. This explains the actual recording length. However, the scheduler is not aware of the change. The scheduler only notices a problem when it tries (and fails) to stop the recording at the scheduled time. This explains why MP/TV Server show that the recording is still ongoing when it actually isn't. So, for me the question is: why does the tuner redetection cycle happen? One thing that stands out in your log files is the fact that your computer's IP (network) address changes. The log files show it as 192.168.1.8, 192.168.200.2 or 127.0.0.1 (not set). An IP/network address change could potentially cause the cycle. Are you able to explain why the computer is assigned different IP/network addresses at different times? Note that it is generally recommended to use a fixed/static IP/network address for computers that run server software. We strongly recommend using a fixed/static IP/network address for any computer that TV Server is installed on. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
