Hi all, <br><br>I've been having trouble getting manually scheduled recordings working with my myth set-up. I'm not using mythweb to schedule the recordings, just the normal frontend. I had the same problem with version
0.19, I check through the mail archives and could not find reference to the scenario I was encountering and can only presume I'm stuffing up some part of the configuration. If there is a pointer to a thread that I might of missed or someone could give me a pointer to what I'm doing wrong- it would be greatly appreciated.
<br><br>The entire system works pretty good except for this scheduling problem, with only a bit of jittery action occuring on live tv viewing which I'm guessing is just a system tuning issue (that I've already had some success resolving). Recording works fine, (I'm just doing a manual schedule, and not using a xml tv guide - just the time) if the recoding is within roughly 2 hours of the machine not being idle. That is to say if I have a program scheduled in 5 hours time and 30 minutes before it is due to record I wake the machine up by doing something - it records, but anything after the machine becomes idle it will not record.
<br><br>If I try to view the scheduled recording myth will respond with a window that says "can not find file".<br><br>I tried basic stuff like the permissions and owners of the path, and ensuring the database user (mythtv) had appropriate "granted permissions" in the sql database. I also tried using umask 011 before executing the backend with no luck there and running the back and front end as 'root' and 'mythtv' (the myth user for the system).
<br><br>I saw some references to deleting the chanels and video sources, and tried that out too, but no luck there either. Also I've set my starting channel to 2 (I'm in australia) but not entirely sure what the starting channel should be.
<br><br>My machine is a 2.8Ghz 4Gb, nVidia 6600. Data drive is on a secondary IDE interface and it's FC5. I compiled myth 0.20a and the myth plugins. I used the QT packages included in the fedora install (mainly because I couldn't get the mysql plugins to compile).
