[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1101185, member: 82144"] Mmmm, well the export certainly doesn't contain the schedule. Like you say though, as an expired schedule it could easily have been deleted by now. That'd be great. :) Since this doesn't seem to occur very often, here are some key points to make sure we get testing right for next time: [LIST] [*]The second schedule needs to be a real schedule. In other words, the test won't work if you just select record from TV home. [*]Make sure not to stop and restart the TV service (or restart the PC) until after you've tried the second schedule. [*]If the problem is similar to the one I linked in my last post, I'd expect the second schedule to fail as well. In fact I'd expect all schedules to fail to start [I]or stop [/I]recording until the TV service is restarted. Further, I'd expect it may not be possible to stop the TV service (because the scheduler thread deadlock prevents it). In other words, you may need to restart the PC in order for recordings to start working correctly again. [*]It wouldn't hurt to test a third schedule as follows: notice first schedule doesn't record, try second schedule, try restart TV service (and/or reboot PC), try third schedule to confirm recording is working. [/LIST] Yes, it is possible the issue is specific to that old version of MP (...in which case, unfortunately I may not even be able to find the problem let alone provide a solution). However, I'd still like to try to find and understand the problem if I can. Especially considering the existence of the issue that I linked in my previous post. It is possible that you're experiencing the same or similar issue as the people running W8/8.1, and that would be something [I]really crucial[/I] for me to know. [/QUOTE]
