Thanks. Yes it does look like the crashes are being caused by signal quality issues with the HDHomeRun. I'll look into the cabling and see if I can improve things.
After resetting (i.e. power cycling) the HDHomeRun the DVROntime retuning process initially failed to find any channels at all. I then reset the HDHomeRun again and tried again. The DVROntime service crashed a few more times, but eventually the scan completed. There were no channels in the...
Thanks - yes, those were the six channels that I tried tuning. It was just 22 and 28 that caused the problem. It looks like Sky Arts is missing as a consequence, which is a shame as I use it alot.
I've attached the event log. I think I tried tuning for the first time between 21:20 and 21:45
OK so it seems that channels 22 and 28 seem to cause the crash when tuning. If I omit these then I can progress to updating the EPG. So everything appears to be back up and running.
Many thanks for your help!
Doh! Sorry I hadn't spotted that the section already existed. OK I managed to correct the config and start the service. One step forward....
Now when I try to tune the channels the DVROntime service repeatedly crashes after tuning four of the six channels. The message generated in the Event Log...
OK so I was able to start the service manually - must've been a genuine timeout....
So I stopped it again, replaced the three v1.0.6 files with the equivalent files from v1.0.7, made the changes to the config file, then tried to restart the service. This time I get: "Windows could not start the...
Hmmm...there was indeed a DVROntime entry in Add or Remove Programs, but when I try to uninstall it I get an error - "There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel..."
So I manually deleted...
As an experiment, I also tried running the v1.0.6 install on a fresh (newly-installed) Windows 10 VM. That install also failed. So your theory regarding the changes to the .NET framework sounds potentially quite relevant.
Many thanks for your reply. The setup for 1.0.6 is now failing to complete. I didn't catch the error which flashed up in the console before it closed, but at the end of the process a dialog box pops up:
"There is a problem with the Windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup...
My DVROntime install is not updating the EPG. If I stop the service and run it from the command line I get this error:
Error connecting to the database, please make sure LocalDB is installed and the database is at C:\Program Files\DvrOnTime\. Error is: System.Exception: Stored Procedure...
Sorry I missed that. I do see a pause, just over 1 second, with a blank screen, before playback starts. I usually wait until after that before I press the FF button.
I find that if I FF at 1.5x or 2x I don't get the problem. Anything 4x or more and I always get taken straight back to the start...
That's now happening 100% of the time for me. I find that hitting the AV button on the Aura remote is the quickest way of getting the Aura turned on and the TV tuned to it
Hmmm....very odd. If I FF from a couple of seconds in, at 4x or 8x, until I see the newscaster, it always takes me right back to the start. Any pretty much only on the lunchtime BBC1HD news. I must have the Rita Chakrabati patch installed :D
If you allow playback to continue for 2-3 seconds at the start of the recording, then use FF at 4x or 8x, do you still get the problem? That's what I usually do, and I get the problem every time.
