Having to repeatedly stop a recording

[birdman]

When stopping the recording by way of the media screen I'm actually stopping a partially recorded program and not deleting the timer. Hence, I'm not changing the timer configuration, the software now doesn't check immediately and waits for the next polling interval.

And if the next polling interval arrives it will re-start the recording. I did check this (with a 3min polling interval).

The poll will kick in again on set time, a box or E2 restart, opening of any of the timer screens IIRC.

But probably not when a recording is suspended by way of the media button.

My initial problem was I needed to free up a tuner which I did by deleting the recording in a dedicated timer screen, as that was the only method I found for stopping the recording. I could then watch what I wanted BUT a few minutes later the timer wanted to record again and pinched the tuner back - and repeatedly did it.

It still will be a problem as the polling tick (set to hours) pinches the tuner but hopefully only after the program I want to watch live has finished and/or another tuner is available. I will have an occasional bout of swearing at the box rather than having to do it every time.
