Description

THis problem appears when there's an existing recording, and then a rerun attempts to record with the same file name. Without debug mode, it just shows a normal startup but CPU hits 100% utilization for 1 core and the GUI doesn't work.

With debug on, it writes this as fast as my PC can:

Searches haven't revealed how to disable this DVR overwrite protection, or to skip a recording if it exists.

Never mind, I think I found my problem. Somehow in the DVR profile parameters, the file format string was $t$$-en.$x, and not the help-file default of $t$n.$x. I must have screwed it up months ago and it just reared its head.

Is it possible to exit out instead of locking up the program if this happens? Just to help idiots like me :D
