i have installed 1089, meant to ask if 1089 contained the fix for uk recordings or whether that could still be the issue here?
thanks

To clarify the 105 files are on a Server 2012 R2 share, all others are on the shared Recorded TV folder that ServerWMC is installed on

How much of a delay do you get displaying these 105 recordings on your pi? This is about a third of the amount bungee is trying to display on his pi, and it takes him 15 sec (as you can see from his videos). Is yours 5 sec or quicker than that?

All you can do is back out with the Esc key.

As far as delay displaying recordings there is an inherent delay with the PI when selecting Movie, TV or music as the library is displayed, the larger the library the longer the delay. I'm of the belief that this is what you get from a $35 pc that runs off a cell phone charger. Really the PI has come a long way in the last year and has improved significantly but in the end it's still cheap and underpowered (NOT saying this is a bad thing)

However, I'm trying to configure my laptop as a client and am about 1/2 way there. WMCServer succesfully recognizes my laptop, and am even able to browse EPG and channels on the laptop. When I select a channel, i get an error message to check the log:
XBMC.log
(Host/server - acer-htpc)
(client/laptop - etuo-atsc-splp)

The server tells me it is streaming the channel, but I am still stuck on the EPG from laptop. I glanced at the log and found it is trying to open - \\ACER-HTPC\Users\Public\Recorded TV\TempXBMC\LiveTV_etuo-atsc-splp_Digital Cable_4_2013_10_26_17_20_08.ts

I browsed to the above path on the server, but that file does not exist, is that normal?

I'm interested if people would think this is useful.

Hi. These channels like 'Sky Sport 11' have no tuning space defined for them (you have 20 of these). By way of background, a user reported crashing early in the release of this software and I found out it was because of channels like this. I didn't know it was possible to have a 'null' tuning space when I wrote the code, so to stop the crashing I just filtered them out from being sent to xbmc. I tried to get more info to handle this better but the user disappeared after I made the change.

With no tuning space defined you won't be able to watch live tv on these channels from xbmc, but you probably would be able to schedule records if I modified the code. Is that what you want to do?

Btw, whenever you have time, would you please start a live tv stream on another channel and send me the server log afterwords? You are the first user I know of from Austria and I would like to see what streams the server finds there.

EDIT:
Also, are these channels also 'locked' in wmc?:

Great stuff though...it's coming along nicely. Anyway, that's when I stumbled across this post. You may have elaborated on it further in a later post but just wanted to throw in my $.02 since I ran into this situation last night. In a word: YES!! I do this all the time on my STB (which I am desperately trying to rid myself of). I was watching a show, hit record (of course it crashed and burned viewing-wise but I know you're working on that) and was surprised after to see that it only saved from when I pressed record. I think this scenario of starting a program, getting half way through and deciding it's worth keeping would come up quite frequently for many users, especially the Mrs. I know this would certainly add +1 to the WAF. Obviously not something that needs to be on the immediate list but maybe on the someday list? In my vision, the way it would work would be like this: Say I tuned to a channel at 7:53. The show I want to watch, per the EPG, starts at 8:00. At 8:27, I decide to record the show. The show completes and then I review the recording to find a file containing the entire show per my padding settings. So if I have it set to 3 mins pre and 5 mins post, the resulting file would contain the stream from 7:57~8:05. Again, I'm just brainstorming here so don't take any of it too seriously!

I also observed strange behavior when timeshifting: If you have paused live TV for a bit and are fast-forwarding through commercials and such, the stream doesn't revert to play once you hit the live TV mark. It just stays in this weird FF limbo state until you hit play. I have a feeling this may be an XBMC thing which I can direct toward the devs if necessary but just wanted to ask while I was thinking of it.

Thanks man! Hope all is well.

P.S. Do you have a Pi yet?
