Description

Sometimes (1 out of 10) a recording is empty and saved as .bin file in stead of .mkv (I set media container to Matroska).

Here a debug log snippet of a failed recording:

Here is a debug log snippet of a successfull recording:

It looks like it does not get input from the stream or something like that. In LiveTV this happens sometimes (but rarely and randomly) when opening a channel. Reopening the channel always fixes this... Maybe something like that can be implemented in the recorder as well.

Passing to John as I think this is muxer related. Looks like its having trouble with the file, but also unsure as to why a valid extension has not been created (implies muxer issue).

I had similar problems and commited a fix last night. Please test with current master and see if it is fixed or not.

Ta John,

I had a funny feeling that might have been related.

Ok, thanks!

Running current git now (3.3.414~gce67dd9). Will see if this has fixxed the problem. Challenge is off course the fact that this only occurs once in each 10 recordings... But will report back if it happens again or if it does not happen for about 30 recordings.
