    Hi,

    manual recording Monday-Friday does not work from time to time.

    1. scheduled several manual recordings to record weekdays Monday-Friday at
    - 11:35-12:35 Kabel1
    - 13:05-13:35 Kabel1
    - 14:00-14:30 ZDF

    2. set MP to hibernate

    3. MP will not wake up and record the shows:(

    Made several tests now, and sometimes it works and sometimes not?:(
    Can't get the clue.

    Regards
    Ralph

    what do you mean with "manual recordings"?

    turn on extensive logging in PowerScheduler plugin settings and test again please.

    which svn snapshot are you using?

    Did some more tests.
    The logs now say, something's wrong with my capturecards.xml?
    I deleted the capturecards.xml and added my TV-card again.
    Today it worked fine.:)

    will do some more tests tomorrow...

    Regards

    Made some more tests.
    Today it didn't work again.:(

    I scheduled two recordings:

    1. Scheduled a manual recording Mo-Fri at 19:25-19:55, start today, wed. 28.06.2006
    MP did not wake up.
    When starting MP manually at 19:40 MP immediately myTV was unable to create the graph.
    Closed MP created "man 19_25 280606.zip"

    2. Scheduled a second manual recordings Mo-Fri 20:00-20:30, start today, wed. 28.06.2006.
    MP did not wake up.
    When starting MP manually at 19:40 MP immediately started to record the show.
    Closed MP created "man 29_00 280606.zip"

    Regards
    Ralph

    weird :confused:
    i have multiple Monday to Friday scheduled recordings running here.

    i.e. for my daughter:
    x "Benjamin Blümchen" on SuperRTL Mo.-Fr.
    x "Jimmy Newtron" on SuperRTL Mo.-Fr. (series ended last week)

    all shows were recorded like a charm.
    HTPC(s) resuming from S4 to record the show and hibernate after the show.

    That was yesterday evening. I have nothing changed, but today it doesn't worked again.:(
    I have 3 scheduled recordings and every recording is only 2-3 minutes long.
    MP resumed, started to record and after 5 minutes powerscheduler hibernated MP again, though it was still recording.
    In the logs I get again the message:
    29.06.2006 11:34:33 Recorder: invalid capturecards.xml found! please delete it

    Why do I always get this invalid capturecards.xml???

    Regards

    because your MediaPortal installation seems to be currupted.

    so do a clean install:

    x uninstall MediaPortal
    x delete old folder
    x install MediaPortal
    x apply latest svn
    x run start.bat
    x configure MediaPortal
    x test

    do NOT use any old files or databases!
