[mythtv-users] Missing recordings due to External Tuner program timing out

[John Brooks]

Hey, all. I'm getting the occasional missed recording. I'm using the
dct-channel script, and until recently (that is, for the past several
months) it has worked flawlessly. I'm using thehunter.ws packages (.19-5)
and have a PVR-250. Here's the backend log; please let me know if any other
information would be useful:

2006-07-19 02:00:34.396 External Tuning program timed out, killing
2006-07-19 02:00:34.397 TVRec(1) Error: Failed to set channel to 66.
Reverting to kState_None
2006-07-19 02:00:34.398 TVRec(1): Changing from RecordingOnly to None
2006-07-19 02:00:34.403 Finished recording Good Eats "Spice Capades":
channel 1066
2006-07-19 02:00:34.409 scheduler: Finished recording: Good Eats "Spice
Capades": channel 1066
2006-07-19 02:00:34.414 Started recording: Good Eats "Spice Capades":
channel 1066 on cardid 1, sourceid 1
2006-07-19 02:00:34.420 scheduler: Started recording: Good Eats "Spice
Capades": channel 1066 on cardid 1, sourceid 1

The cable is plugged in securely on both ends, so I know it's not that. Any
thoughts? Does the dct-channel script get updated at all?

Thanks!
Jack.
