    This happens random. A recording will loose the lock on the tuner and so a recording isn't complete, and the tuner can't get a lock until a new recording starts.

    17-10-2006 21:41:03 Tuner locked: False

    I was just watching Master and Commander which i recorded yesterday, and just before the final battle the recording ended prematurely!

    Unfortunately i do not have any log files as they have been overwritten since, but there might be something to it.

    I have noticed a similar "tuner lock" issue while watching live TV. The video (and sound?) will freeze and stay that way until I change to another channel and back again to the watched channel. Unfortunately, it is very intermittent and thus hard to pinpoint.

    It seems to be related to a momentary drop in TV signal, but I would expect that MediaPortal should try to force the tuner to lock again. I have found that by changing to another channel and back again, the tuner will regain "lock" and then work fine .... :confused:

    Of course, if this "tuner lock" issue occurs during a recording, then manual intervention is not likely, and the remainder of the recording is lost .... :(
