I tried to set up a recording yesterday about an
hour before the show<br>
started by selecting a recording from the listing
guide and choosing<br>
"record this showing", but the recording status
showed "Not listed". I then<br>
tried a bunch of variations including "record all on
any channel" and even<br>
a manual schedule, using both the frontend and
mythweb, but it remained<br>
stuck on "Not listed". All filters were cleared.
Weirdly, the same show a<br>
week later shows up scheduled as expected (when
using any recording<br>
schedule type). Here's the first few lines from my
mythbacked --printsched<br>

What "Not listed" is supposed to mean is that you set
up a rule for a<br>
single record or the like - a rule that records a
program at a<br>
specified time and date. Then later, the EPG data has
changed and<br>
that rule can not find the program to record it. I
get it<br>
occasionally here in New Zealand when some high
profile sporting event<br>
comes along and they decide to run that instead of a
one-off<br>
documentary I had marked to record, or when I have
told the scheduler<br>
with an override that a particular playing of one
episode of a program<br>
was the one I wanted to record.<br>

I get round that problem by selecting "Find and record one
of these". That allows for rescheduling by the networks
and/or movements between channels - which happens a lot
around here at Wimbledon time...<br>
<br>
..it does require an eyeball or two to make sure you have
the episode you wanted but that's better than missing it
completely.<span class="HOEnZb"></span></blockquote>

<div>Yes, in my web searches that's the only situation I
could find where "Not Listed" occurred, but in my case it
showed "Not Listed" immediately after selecting it to
record. And a "Find" or "Record All" rule *still* didn't
pick up the showing. It's baffling.<br>

I don't recall if I saw that "Not Listed" message, but a similar
thing has happened to me a few times when I set up a record rule a
week in advance, but the program was not recorded. I discovered
later that the station had replaced the show with a different one
between the time I scheduled the recording and the time it was
supposed to run. Since then I've made it a practice to run
mythfilldatabase --dd-grab-all just before setting up my rules. I
usually set up my rules a week or so in advance. Now I still do
that, but I also run mythfilldatabase --dd-grab-all in the middle of
the week and make sure the programs are still on the schedule. I
haven't had that problem since then.<br>
