I couldn't reproduce it any furher, I do some more testing and let you know
if I have more details.

I just tried that and it did resume the VPS recording just fine
after restarting VDR.

Maybe there are specific conditions under which this doesn't work?

Having a sanity check for the absolute maximum of a VPS controlled recording
might be a good idea. However, I guess this will have to be yet another
setup parameter. And it should control the maximum overtime, so that it
doesn't matter how long the original scheduled time is. After all, somebody
might want to record a show that runs for more than 8 hours...

I'll see what I can do in version 1.5.

[vdr] VDR does not resume VPS recording after restart

2007-02-06 Thread Andreas Breitenbach
Hi all,

I am using vdr-1.4.5. If I have started a recording without VPS it does 
automatically resume the recording, if VDR has been restarted (either 
manually or caused by a reset). 

This is not working for a VPS recording.

I could imagin that in that case the recording is fully controlled by the VPS 
signal. IMHO there should be some vanity check for the recording with VPS to 
avoid nonsens, e.g the recording should stop after, let say, 8 hours, even if 
no VPS stop signal has been received.
I used to have a recording with 1380 minutes, I guess the stop signal was 
never detected.  This kind of check should be used for the resume after a 
restart as well.


Cheers,
Andreas
