Hi,
I noticed a problem with the recording directory of the following timer
9:S19.2E-1-1092-10100:M------:2000:2200:50:99:Musik~DELUXE:
in a situation where the recording gets interrupted by any other recording due to higher priority (with vdr-1.4.6):
Mar 19 21:03:00 Kanotix vdr: [4293] stopping recording on DVB device 1 due to higher priority Mar 19 21:03:01 Kanotix vdr: [4293] timer 1 (44 2000-2200 'Musik~DELUXE') stop
as you can see the timers recording directory changes from empty ('_' ) to 'Den_Song_für_Ihr_Privatarchiv_kaufen_Si' when the recording is resumed on device 2, resulting in 2 single recordings.
Background: the timer is responsible for a recording on DeluxeMusic. DeluxeMusic delivers their EPG for the current and the next track. So its permanently changing. When the recording is finished it will be processed with the deluxe-plugin to extract mp3's. But this only works with one consistent recording.
The reason for VDRs behaviour is probably that at the beginning of the recording there's no EPG at all, while after the resume there is one.
Any ideas how to avoid the two recordings?
BR,
Christian
The only quick solution I can think of is to turn off "Use episode name" in "Setup/Recording".
It would be nice to have a flag in the individual timer for this. There are a lot of shows where you want episode subdirs and a lot of others where the EPG is so broken you're better off without (try Tele-Gym on Bayern 3 for an example...)
