[mythtv-users] Recording the wrong program on the wrong encoder?

[Piers Kittel]

Hello all,

I've got 2 TV tuners on my MythTV box - they both can receive exactly 
the same programs, but I've created 2 sets of channels each - i.e. 
encoder 1 has channel 1: BBC1, channel 2: BBC2 and so on.  And encoder 2 
has channel 1001: BBC1, channel 1002: BBC2 and so on.  It all works 
fine, I can choose which TV tuner to use for different programs, MythTV 
always record the correct channel from the correct TV tuner.

Anyway, there's a certain rubbish soap shown on Sundays on Channel 4 
that I want to watch, and I prefer the 2nd TV tuner, so I set MythTV to 
record Hollyoaks Omnibus from channel 1004 at that specific time.  But 
for the last 3 weeks, MythTV has been recording ITV from the 1st encoder 
(i.e. channel 3)!  I checked the recording schedules, it clearly shows 
"Channel 1004" but the "Scheduled recordings" list, it shows it will 
record Hollyoaks from channel 4?!  And no, there is no clash, there is 
nothing else scheduled to be recorded on the whole day.

Using MythWeb, I click on "Recording Schedules" and it shows:

T4:Hollyoaks  	1004 - Channel 4  	Default  	Default  	Find One Weekly

Then click on "Scheduled Recordings"

1  	T4:Hollyoaks  	4 - Channel 4  	Sun Jul 3, 2005 (10:20 AM)  	2 hrs 35 
mins  	Don't Record  	Never Record

Note, it says 4, and on encoder 1 - should be 1004, on encoder 2!

Hmm, playing around with it, it seems that all other programs on Channel 
4 has the same problem.....

"Recording Schedules" shows:

Channel 4 Racing from Sandown Park and Haydock Park  	1004 - Channel 4 
  	Default  	Default  	Once

"Scheduled Recordings" shows:

1  	Channel 4 Racing from Sandown Park and Haydock Park  	4 - Channel 
4  	Sat Jul 2, 2005 (02:00 PM)  	2 hrs  	Don't Record  	Never Record

Other channels works just fine:

"Recording Schedules" shows:

Wimbledon 2005  	1001 - BBC ONE  	Default  	Default  	Once

"Scheduled Recordings" shows:

2  	Wimbledon 2005  	1001 - BBC ONE  	Sat Jul 2, 2005 (01:30 PM)  	2 hrs 
30 mins  	Don't Record  	Never Record

See, the channel numbers matches up fine, and encoder 2 is selected.

Any ideas anyone?  I'm starting to miss my weekly Hollyoaks fix!

Thanks
