Blank recordings

[madaboutlotus]

It may be an update issue or something else but am continuously not been able to watch anything that has been recorded via the epg? When I go to the video listing the recording is listed and when you select OK the length of the recording is displayed correctly but no video will play. What could be going wrong. Any suggestions would be grateful as I am losing all my favorite programmes.

Did you initilaise the HDD, when you select a recording does it have a timer in the RHS of the menu?

What is your local card and which cam are you using?

[madaboutlotus]

I don't need to initialize the hdd as it records perfectly well with instant recording from the remote. Yes the timer symbol is displayed and the programme appears in the video menu. Using cccam

is this about Free To Air or encrypted channels ?, also is the epg data fully populated with data via CrossEPG or XMLTVImpoter ?

Looks like it is just encrypted channels. The epg data is fully populated via ABM. Have you thought of any clues as to why this is happening?

then sounds like drivers to me, as the python code is same for both.

Hi Andy. Were the drivers updated on the last software update or its there a separate drivers update pending?

Error log files sent back to Vix Team. As posted on another thread I can copy here but it is quite long or I can send as an attachement.

try updating your CCCam to 2.30 as mentioned on another thread. Had the same problem as you.

Ok I'll give anything a go to try and cure this problem. But was there not a warning about using 2.3 something about it being a back door?

nope its a myth and if you're using it as a client only on your box even less to worry about.

I am getting seriously pissed off with these failed recordings. It just seems to be so random, everything will record ok for a while and then several programmes look as though they are recorded but no playback. This is not just happening to sky programmes it is also fta as well. Sent in numerous logs but I never get any feedback from them. Is there nobody out there that can sort this out?

Apologies guys for my language on my last post. Just a bit frustrated last night and had a stressful day

Have you considered trying another cam other than cccam?

I've got a GB Quad and use Oscam from the feeds, I've never had one issue with blank recordings since getting the box in November.

Not considered that option as I have always had no problems with cccam. Are you using VIX 3.0 and the latest build.
