Blank recordings

[hollinshead]

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

I'm currently using build 3.0.645 and OSCAM 1.20-unstable_svn build #5953

I downloaded it from the Plugin Menu on Vix

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.

Never had any issue with mine until last night
I recorded Modern Family at 8:30pm=OK, Revolution at 9pm=BLANK and Smackdown at 10pm=OK
No logs generated.

What cam are you using?

Like I previously said I've never had an issue with blank recordings on my box but I'm using OSCAM 1.20-unstable_svn build #5953

Been using cccam 2.3.0 ever since it came out, never had a problem. My TM-Single also uses it and has no issues with recordings.

This is happening more and more often now for me
Seems completely random too
It doesn't matter if I record two channels at the same time or just one, results are the same, 1 in 3 records of late are just black.

I'm getting to the point that if I want to record something I use the TM-Single to do it

An example.

Yesterday I set the timer for Sky1HD for Futurama, The Middle, Modern Family and Revolution all on one after the other. I watched the 1st program while it was recording then went up to bed.
I had set other timers too for yesterday, a movie and WWE.

There was NO timer conflicts, The Middle, Modern Family and Revolution all blank recordings (but the correct running time) the other was OK

Mmmmmmmmmmmm
Just looked at some recordings I did over the past few weeks I hadn't seen yet.

Some were sound only (no picture) and I had one really weird recording where there was no sound but it was like it was running at double speed but the time was running at normal speed.
I even tried watching them on my PC with VLC and got the same results so the problem lies with the actual recording and not related to playback.

Got a recording of 5 mins now

Just did a fresh reflash and NOTHING installed but SMB/NFS and CCCAM 2.3.0

[robelind]

I've also experienced these problems on my Quad.
Bland recordings, recordings that when played back seem to run at double speed etc.
Very frustrating.

Guys
The only way I manged to sort this out was to re-flash the image and remount the HDD. Fortunately all the recordings that were good were still on the HDD much to the wife's thanks.

[marty]

I did a fresh flash a couple of days ago, I didn't use ANY backups etc and redid everything from the ground up.
SO far so good I've done 6-7 recording and all OK so far.

I didn't re-format the HDD but I did erase EVERYTHING off it but for the movie folder.

I normally have loads of recording set on Fridays so that will be the real test.

[marty]

I thought everything was OK but disaster!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here comes honey boo boo didn't record yesterday

[marty]

Recorded a load of Family Guys last night, one after the other.
Getting some playing back at double speed but this time they play OK on the PC with VLC, BUT play back at normal speed on my TM-Single with NO sound and as jerky as hell

yes i had the same problems on my quad too.

still got blank recordings when recording following programs, i need to set the first timer to stop 1 minute earlier then it records the second properly.

I've just flashed to 649 as this image uses a different kernel (3.5.1) and drivers as a test to see how the recordings are with this.
I have set 4 recordings in a row on TLC so I'll post the results in a few hours. I also have a lot of recordings set for tonight so I 'should' know tomorrow where the problem lies (I hope )

I've only had this problem since 'around' the time we went from 3.5.1 to 3.3.6 but I'm not 100% sure (hence the test )
If it is still the same I'll test an older image with kernel 2.6.3 as this was rock solid for recordings.

3.8.3 is due any time now (with new drivers) so hopefully things might be better with that

[rossi2000]

it was due anytime now a couple of weeks ago lol
