[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1229396, member: 82144"] Hello Log file shows: [2017-09-08 10:28:03,181] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [DEBUG] - CardReservationBase.HasUserHigherPriorityThanBlockingUser: True - user 'scheduler21295' with prio=100 vs blocking user 'epg' with prio=1 [2017-09-08 10:28:03,188] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [INFO ] - card: WaitForCancelledTuneToFinish card: 8 / subch: 0 In other words: [LIST=1] [*]TV Server thinks there is an "epg" user (EPG grabber) using the tuner. [*]TV Server assesses the priority of EPG grabbing against the priority of the recording ("scheduler21295" user) and rightly decides that recording is more important. [*]TV Server cancels the EPG grabber tune/grab process. [*]TV Server waits for the cancellation to take effect and the tuner to become available. [/LIST] Problem: the cancellation never takes effect and the tuner never becomes available. Looks to me like a component in the tuner graph has locked up here: [2017-09-08 10:16:44,707] [Log ] [DVB EPG timer] [INFO ] - dvb:confused:topGraph There should be a line after that as seen previously: [2017-09-08 10:16:23,724] [Log ] [DVB EPG timer] [INFO ] - dvb:confused:topGraph [2017-09-08 10:16:23,839] [Log ] [DVB EPG timer] [INFO ] - debug: IMediaControl stopped! hr = 0x0 :) This is not new; I've seen it all before, particularly with TBS tuners when people enable TV Server's "idle" DVB EPG grabber and haven't configured the grabber's settings properly. Essentially the grabber grabs continuously when able, and this "exercises" some kind of long-standing bug in TBS tuner drivers, firmware or hardware. See here: [URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/recording-failed-to-start.128150/']Recording Failed To Start[/URL] Exactly the same!
