I have had this issue several days in a row, so I'll just describe one instance of it.
So, last Friday, the 13th - I set up a repeat timer, to record BBC breakfast, from 05.57-06.57 , starting on Monday 16th onwards, repeated every day, Mon-Fri, and the exact same process, to record from 06.58-07.58, and then 07.58 - 09.30 - so, 3 repeat timers set up in total.

I set it up via Open Webif (If i try doing it via the box, once you've set up 1 timer, if i try and set up another timer in the split the way i've described above, it cant be done because it just thinks you want to edit the current timer) EDIT: This is happening with ALL repeat timers that I set up via Openwebif. If I do it via the box, it seems to be okay.


i check whats happened, and open webif, for whatever reason, changes the time from 05.57 - 05.56. Therefore it fails to record.

If I try and edit the timer, to re-correct the time, this happens.

even though there aren't any conflicts with any other timers.
what the hell is going on?

it keeps doing this, for any repeat timers i set up, that I then go on to edit via Openwebif - to split the program up into 3 parts, for example (like in this case), when it comes to recording the program on the day, the timer just seems to go mental, change the time, and then not record!!! Why!

never had this problem before, when i had a vuduo using the same image (im running the latest vix image as of last week)

Why don't you try this with a programm other than Breakfast as in the EPG its a single listing fron start to finish and you are aritifically breaking it up.

have tried it with other programs where im not artificially breaking it up i.e. if i use webif to set the autotimer, the problems occur.
if i use the box, its fine.

any autotimer that i set in webif, thats a repeated timer, when the time is up to start recording, it goes mental, changes the end time of the program to a time thats before the start of it, and therefore the timer is corrupt and the box doesnt record.
