    I'm (slowly) looking into it.
    But it was working in Vix prior to 5.4.0

    Also VPS can be added using "edit timer" in the web if to create a new timer

    I don't wish to appear rude, but there were a lot of version control issues on the other thread, and it remains fact that up until 5.4.x VPS 1.3 did not have these issues

    I couldn't find any either (that's not saying much), but I've tried 5.3.039 and setting a timer from epg/green works, enable vps=yes sticks and the vps.xml file is created.

    In the next release, 5.4.001 vps doesn't stick, as is currently being reported.

    Maybe the vps plugin isn't linking into the add timer interface properly anymore, but still works for autotimers?

    I've just flashed 5.4.001 without any settings restores and as expected, the epg/green problem still exists.

    When I downloaded the vps plugin, am I right in saying that I got the current latest version, and the same would have applied when I was on 5.3.039 ??

    If that's the case, the plugin works, but something has changed in ViX. Maybe I'm stating the obvious.

    It was this commit I was trying to exclude from the equation....

    Code:
    https://github.com/oe-alliance/enigma2-plugins/commit/d6c0614d4800e21eaa1217f7f6813914991393e2#diff-acb2a8e7c90345f066d741fc839397cd3c3eca93d364bb344f324ec6bd478890
    Trying to remove the commit doesn't work because I get into the boot loop which it fixes !

    Quite possibly.
    All I meant was that i can't find any code that would have put it it into the menu.
    But if it was there, it was there and I'm not looking in the right place, or hard enough, or hard enough.

    That doesn't change any functionality. It just "corrects" parameter passing so that it works on ATV and Vix.

    However, its possible that the changes in Vix(?) which led to it being required might have caused a difference.

    Good detective work ccs! Maybe that commit broke the compatibility with the manual timer while fixing the boot loop issue? In which case, this info needs to be moved into the main VPS thread as it may get lost here.

    I read that thread at the time and referenced it subsequently but I had never used (or heard of!) VPS before that. There has been a lot of work done on menus and cleaning up code between 5.3 and 5.4, plus the Python 3 stuff which may well have affected the manual timer functionality with VPS.

    And nowhere in that does the text "vps" (in any case) occur, so I can't see that removing anything to do with VPS.

    The specific sort of code I'm referring to is code that adds a vps entry to a menu. AutoTimerEntry has it, TimerEntry does not.

    But that's the commit which caused this vps fix to be needed to prevent the bootloop, mentioned in post #22.

    Code:
    https://github.com/oe-alliance/enigma2-plugins/commit/d6c0614d4800e21eaa1217f7f6813914991393e2#diff-acb2a8e7c90345f066d741fc839397cd3c3eca93d364bb344f324ec6bd478890
    All I know is that installing vps creates an extra (vps) option in add timer, all that fails is the save timer, the new option value is lost.

    But "only" because that PR changed the API for a function which the VPS plugin intercepts. So it was now being called with 0 parameters but was defined to expect 1.
    Python does not like this.
    This PR adds a default one (widget="config") and then checks how many to has to pass to the call it intercepted.
    It didn't change any functionality or options in menus.

    I have been testing 5.3 briefly. ADD TIMER from epg does work - although with a bit of a fudge. VPS Enabled by Default doesn't seem to stick as already noted. When you enable it manually in the new timer entry the VPS check fails (because the flag is not there) and it sets it as YES (SAFE MODE) which is pointless as the look ahead feature does not kick in. Then you need to change the VPS (Safe Mode) to YES and the VPS recording will function correctly.
