Occasional failed recordings with over the air 950q

Post by Nickl1996 »

Trying too if anyone here knows how I can track down intermittently failing recordings with myth 30 and a Hauppauge 950q. I also use a Hauppauge 850. It seems many folks are using 950qs, and mine sometimes works for several weeks without fail. I turned on verbose logging but when recording does fail all I ever see in the backend log is flags set in the signal mon, but then nothing reporting pmt from the stream. I know my signal is good and if I'm home when recording fails, all of takes to get it recording is to stop and restart the recording.

I've tried all the captured settings too - wait for seq start on\off, dvb on demand on\off. i'm not using eit, so it's off too.

Live tv is usually rock solid, but occasionally I can get a partial lock.

Without any errors in the logs i'm not sure where else to look. Since I can't induce the failure, it's slow going to wait days\weeks before a fail too see if see if anything I try makes a difference.

Any advice?
