Tv Server Problem (1 Viewer)

[rmtucker]

I am using Mp1.5 Final.
I have a dual dvb-s2 TBS Tv card
And a Compro dvb-s card.
While recording 2 Hd programs on the dual hd tuner(on seperate transponders),If i go to the channel list it shows that i can still watch hd programs on the third sd tuner(Green icon even though they are not mapped to the sd Card).
Which of course if you try it you can not.(Mepo displays No Tuner Available).
Just wondering if this is a bug or not?.

Hi rmtucker,

Did you set the Cam Limit correctly for the card?

I am not using Cam only Freesat FTA channels.

Could you provide log files please:

Best would be to reproduce the scenario that you described in the first post.

Yes no problem.
But not sure at what point i should start and finish the logs?
By this i mean if i schedule 2 recordings on hd channels then wait till they have started and try using the 3rd tuner on a hd channel it is just going to show no tuner available(which is correct).
My point was that the Red/Amber/Green icon on the channel list is not correctly showing that a 3rd hd channel can not be watched.
I have been using mediaportal for a long time but the last two weeks i have used it as the main tv in the house and had no problems.
But this has arisen since adding more tuner cards in the last 48 hours.
Also mediaportal has become very flakey and i have had to repair the database 4 times in the last 48hours.
I would do a full re-install but it is a bit of a nuisance having to re-scan the channels on 4 tuners again.

I want to confirm that the server side logic for tuner selection is correct. As far as I know, the icons use the same logic so it seems strange to me that the icons would be incorrect. It may be related to database issues.

Yep, understood.

All the more reason to provide log files. Repairing the database 4 times in the last 48 hours is extreme. Something is not right there.

Sorry for not getting back sooner but eventually it looked like it was attatched to other problems i was having in MP1.5,ie crashing with an error pointing to PS plugin.
Which in turn was corrupting the database during the crash.
I have reverted back to MP1.4 and everything is fine now.
For me anyway i found MP1.5 to be a little flakey,and i know i am not helping by not giving log files but i was getting it in the ear from the wife about MP1.5 crashing and making a mess of her Recordings etc.

Understood.
