[mythtv] LiveTV continues recording after Fronend dies

2005-12-11 Thread Jon Whitear
Hello list, My frontend stops responding to my remote in LiveTV occasionally (but that's a separate issue) and I have to restart the box using the power button. Unfortunately, when I do so, the backend doesn't seem to realise that the frontend has gone away, and merrily continues to record that c

This should fix the "deadlock" that people have been getting when exiting and re-entering LiveTV quickly. Doesn't fix it for me, I'm afraid. I have updated to 7384 on both ends, and I'm getting the same behaviour. Here's the frontend log:- 2005-10-04 18:08:29.648 Read(): reqd=128000, rcv

These logs were not made with up to date SVN, so they don't tell me exactly what is wrong. Maybe your lib path is broken? Anyway it seems to have been caused by a RingBuffer shutdown issue. Try revision 7368 or later, it may be fixed there. == Please make sure you are running with up to date
