"Cleaning Trashes" error

[guff daddy]

I have two hard disks in my Duo - one is the internal /media/hdd, used for recording, the other is an external eSata drive - /media/hdd2 used for torrent downloads etc.

Since the 190 update my box occasionally comes up with an error headed "Cleaning Trashes"- initially it looked like it was trying to clean a non-existent /media/hdd2/.Trash directory so, I created one. Since then it has given the same error about a /media/.Trash directory, so I created that as well.
Now it is giving the same error, but about /media/hdd2/.Trash/.Trash
I don't want to keep creating /.Trash directories - any solution for this?

We are aware of a problem in that area and are working on it.

Good to know! - I have exactly the same issue "Cleaning Trashes" after upgrading to 190 and I was about to start a new thread. So, looking forward to a solution.

Otherwise Vix 2.3 build 190 is excellent - thanks to all the team for all the hard work and continuous support!

I'm running the test-environment in which a test-solution for this has been incorporated, and it seems to be working fine. So hopefully this will be resolved in the next update.

Hello,
Is there a workaround until next update?
Currently it prevents recording to start every time an unattended recording timer triggers.
Otherwise when can we expect this update?

[Rob van der Does]

There's no work-around (other then reverting to say build 161). I would be surprised if it will take long before the update is available, but we want it to be tested as good as we can.
Though: this problem should not prevent recordings being made correctly.

This isn't happening on my system - all recordings are going ahead fine. However, in general I find the system to now be very unstable. Lots of spinner activity, and occasional crashes. The last crash I had (see attached) was when deleting a timer from the timerlist while it was being recorded.

thats been fixed in coming update, won't be long

Hopefully the "cleaning trashes" problem is fixed (haven't seen the error since upgrading to 204) however I still have continual problems with the DTT (Nova-T / Irish DTT signal). Every morning for the past few days the system is hung when coming out of standby - stuck on the RTE1 channel on DTT, no spinner, no greenscreen but instead the image is green/purple (see attached). Needs a power off/on for reset (even reboot command from telnet session doesn't work)

I'm going to reflash from scratch and see if that sorts it.
