I have my pre/post set time set at 1 both within the tv server and well as in MP. When I go right into the tables in the SQL server, I can confrim they are set to 1. However, when I select a show to schedule it up... in the table dbo.schedule I see that the pre/post settings for my show is set at 5 min on each. I just did a test and my show started just 1 min before I set it... exactly what it is supposed to do. But it stopped 6 minutes late... is this becuase of this extra 5 minutes added under the scheduler properties? I will contine to test and let you know what I can come up with.

Here is my Pastebin log:

Here is another log... I changed the pre/post to 0 in the service and MP... confirmed it in the SQL database. Both shows ran 5 minutes late.

I just talked to Frodo... or he talked to me and said this issue was fixed in the next release. 11475 was then added to the SVN list and I installed it and tested it out.... sure enough.. after setting my Pre/post to 0 and then selecting a show to record. I then went into the database and checked the scheduled show... it keeps what you have set.... so instead of 5 as before... it's at 0.

Sometimes I don't even know why I post this stuff... with only 3 views on thread and the issue already fixed.....

CRAZY!

Keep up the good work.... I have almost got the tv server working 100% like MP!

Hahaha.. seems like I have received that question several times in the past couple of days.... So right now you might be able to get a signal.. but never any channels.

Draktheas Said it best....

Thanks for the response. After talking with some of the other devs, it appears that the MediaPortal Stream Analyzer is not fully DVB compliant. Thus any North American providers are not going to work, because they may put SDT information for a particular program on a different transponder than the PAT and PMT information for that same program. According to the DVB specification, this is a perfectly acceptable practice. Unfortunately, the MPSA doesn't allow this case to work.
