Unable to start timeshifting... unknown error occured
For reference: How to start a support or bugreport thread:
Choose a meaningful title for your thread.
Report only one problem per thread.
At the moment you start a new thread in the support forums, the hardwarespecification template will be added automatically. If the template is empty, then you have not filled out your specifications in the usercp yet. Note: Your report MUST include a complete hardwarespecification!
Add a detailed, step by step description of your problem.
If your problem occurs inside MediaPortal or the configuration program, then run the "MediaPortal Logs Collector" from your Windows Start Menu (Team MediaPortal/MediaPortal) and ATTACH the exported log.zip file to your thread/post. Without logs it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to help you!
To create clean and conclusive logs you should use the "MediaPortal Debug" shortcut which will start MediaPortal in a special debug mode. Then you reproduce the issue and close MediaPortal. A log.zip will be created automatically which you then attach to your thread/post If you are using the TV-Server and it is installed on a different PC, then you have to attach its logs by hand.
To do that open your Windows StartMenu and click at "TV-Server Logs Folder" in Team MediaPortal/TV-Server.
Attach all these files to your thread/post.
Do NOT copy/paste your logfiles (or large parts of them) in your post.
Please note that support threads, which are missing the required information posted above will not be processed and maybe also deleted.
--- PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT THIS MESSAGE ---
Logs and system specs should always be added - just in case
Guys, Interesting update that might help someone diagnose the issue. I have the same issue and just for craps and giggles I decided to load the MP client on my laptop and try it. Funny thing is I get TV on my laptop but not on the computer that has the tuner installed in it. I still get the preview from the TV Server as shown in the orginal pics but nothing on that machine except the error posted.
Anyone have any ideas of why the machine with both the client and TV server installed does not work?
I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y)
Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :(
Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure:

Thank you for pointing out that my analysis may be less than accurate. :eek: :p
Although the change to TV channel 71 may not also have been applied to the independent radio channels (different MUXes), the logs that I prepared for one of the development team does show a difference between channel 704 ("BBC Radio 4") and channel 731...

O Frabjous Joy!
That seems to have done the trick.
Thank you so much for your help and advice, CyberSimian. I hadn't thought of deleting the various folders, but I'll bear that in mind for any future disasters. Now I can record King & Conqueror on Sunday!

@CyberSimian Sorry, I missed your last post. I ended up doing a clean install on the client and all is well now. It still doesn't let me go back in time when I change channels but it does continue operating from that point on. I'm ok with that. Thanks for your help!
EDIT: I now downgraded the server (as I did with the client above)...
