 Problem:
 When scheduling a new recording from the (for example) Listings, I am
 always getting the Error message at the top:

  Warning at /usr/share/mythtv/bindings/php/MythBackend.php, line 194:
  !!NoTrans: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that
 implements Countable!!

 ----
 Info:
 The issue is appearing, but still the schedule can be set.

 ----
 Solution:
 I have tested this solution, that was provided by daraden in this thread:
 https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?t=2815


 I may have found a possible solution to this issue. looks like replacing
 line 194

 Code: Select all

         $count = count($records);

 with

 Code: Select all

        if (is_array($records)) $count = count($records);
        else $count = 0;

 may resolve this issue in PHP 7.2. Not a PHP programmer so I'm not aware
 of any issues with implementing this solution.



 After modifying this line, I do not get the Error presented any more, but
 with every update the file:
 /usr/share/mythtv/bindings/php/MythBackend.php
 is getting overwritten and I have to add it again.


 Please add this quick fix to the code, so it gets fixed with a future
 update.


 Thanks a lot!

 Cheers,
 Miro
