After upgrading to 5.0.016 AutoTimer fails

[tapkor]

The title pretty much says it all. Below is the screenshot of the error message:

Downgrading to 5.0.014 fixes the problem.

working fine on duo 2

As op or getting clash warnings where none exist, no disabled timers set and no timers set where clashes do not exist.
Restore to .14 results in normal function.

The same happened to my Ultimo. The error message didn't even disappear with th exit key.
Flashed back to 014, waiting for 017.

Autotimer is a shared plugin between the images. There have been changes to it.

Unless people are going to post debug logs and step by step instructions on how to reproduce the problem/s, it is going to be difficult to report the matter to the person who has tried to make other improvements.

I'm getting the same on an Extrend 1OK (build 5.0.016)

No debug or crash logs are being produced when the error occurs (and yes debug logs are enabled in the logs setting menu)

How to make it happen....
Upgrade to 5.0.016
Restore settings
Wait 4 minutes and the error message appears
Hit exit and the error message disappears
wait 10 minutes and the error message appears again

Edit 2
On my box the error message can be triggered just by setting up a new autotimer. I suspect that it occurs when trying to match/find programs in the EPG

I'm not seeing this on my et10k - I couch flashed 14 to 16 and restored settings and plugins.

Mine waits 3 minutes and then runs every 25 minutes.

Only Freeview dvb-t2 tuners.

I couch flashed 13 to 16 and restored settings and plugins and have the problems.
Mine automatically polls at 3 minutes and thereafter 30 minutes
Most of my autotimers are on the satellite tuners (UK Freesat channels) although I have a few on T2 tuners (UK Freeview) channels.

I'm just about to flash back to 13 as the error message keeps appearing [edit] with a period of a lot less than 30 minutes (more like 10 minutes)

This is indeed one of the new checks.

I have tried to recreate your steps, (Was on Dev, flashed 016 Release and restored settings/plugins) but mine is not returning that error. Tried setting up new Autotimer, that was fine too. Perhaps different EPG searches.

BTW, debug logs would be created constantly. A restart is required after enabling the option.



Attached is my debug log. I added "Fajr Prayer- Sehri 1st" as the autotimer in the test above.

EDIT:
Added using Blue button in Graphical EPG.

Attached is the debug log just after the error had happened:

Enigma2_debug_2017-05-31_08-30-44.log

And yes, this happens in 5.0.016 every time AutoTimer searches or tries to search EPG.

Recheck using the old drivers.

The only change I can see in the changes that affects extdesc is this in AutoTimer.py (old line 704, new line 732):

-                                       extdesc = event and event.getExtendedDescription() or ''
-                                       timer.extdesc = extdesc
+                                       if event:
+                                               timer.extdesc = event.getExtendedDescription() or ''
+                                       else:
+                                               remove.append(timer)

so whereas previously the timer always had a extdesc attribute, now it only has one if there is an event.

I only have a compiled Python file of that name on my box - I don't have a compiler.
