Bug #2628
AutoRec entry may get mapped to channel with empty name
0%
Description
Adding AutoRec entries would not create the scheduled recordings like I would expect from EPG data.
It turned out I had a channel with an empty name.
Whenever I created an AutoRec entry without selecting a channel,
the entry would match the channel with the empty name rather than any channel.
There's no way to see this distinction in the UI.
Of course there is no valid point in having channels with empty names but it would help
if there'd be an extra check before matching an AutoRec to a channel.
Deleting the channel with the empty name fixed the problem for me.
The matching AutoRec entries were deleted automatically.
Recreating them fixed the problem.

Fixed in v3.9-2402-gfc7d3d8 . Use {name-not-set} string instead the empty channel name for those channels.
