Big trouble with recordings via timer /epg

[Larry-G]

were just finishing some tests here with a new build, so far looking very good, still a few minor niggles but nothing that would prevent a release if nothing major is found in the meantime.

Hi guys, which image is best to use at the moment if i would like to update my tm twin oe????

#Thanks in advance

Stay with Vix mate. It seems TM have finally got there act together and given the Vix team something they can work with it. Hopefully a new release soon see above post

After having the Technomate tm-2t 6 month I've just managed to get the thing to record correctly by using the latest 4D image. But I have to say it's my opinion that the Vix image is way better. As soon as its up and running correctly on Vix I will transfer back. Hope its not too long.

4d seems ok but the 5.1 audio output still doesn't operate. Big problem for me as I have a surround set up.

No he hasn't, we've been testing them, main issues are now fixed. He was advised lastnight to commit them

New image now available to download.

Is this the one that fixes the timer recordings?

Are the 13/09 drivers included in build 739 for the non-nano TM images?

Reportedly
1. Fixed HDMI multi channel audio codec downmix issue
2. Fixed Youtube
3. Deleted REC, tuner icon during recording at standby mode
4. Improved DVB-S2 QPSK scan functioning
5. Improved smart card driver (for Nagra S02 Card)
6. Improved dvbca for scam

I've been using Vix 735 image for a week and I had two failed single timer recordings.
Previously I was using Vix 734 and had no issues with recordings.

Edit: When I mean failed it recorded the first 7 minutes and then the rest was blank which used to happen with the old Kernal.

After not being able to use my technomate tm2t to record for months I switched to 4d image which allows this function no problem, however I like the vix image a lot better. Can someone confirm that the new image TOTALLY stops the recording issues.

It's nothing at all to do with the image and never was, it's all down to the drivers and kernel as provided by Technomate and yes the latest images ( 736 upwards ) contain the new drivers and kernel which fix the recording issues.

Not seen a missed recoring yet with new drivers. Anyone else?

For me, the recording capability of the TM-TWIN was so temperamental in the past that I unfortunately had to almost completely stop using it.

Since the update, I have been able to rely on the receiver again and have not had a failed recording. The VIX guys have been saying it all along; driver and kernel. I can now happily schedule recordings from the EPG (even multiple timers which start simultaneously) and so far I have not had a problem.

I've changed back to the vix image from 4d and can comment that all is good, haven't had 1 fail when recording.... Happy days!!!

Single timer recordings on Star Plus HD channel on some programming in the evening tends to fail to record most of the time. Programs at this time record for about 7 minutes and the the rest is blank. I've only ever noticed it on this channel for some reason and the issue is still around on all images to present since the recording fix.

It's not a sever issue as I've checked, there seem to be a bug somewhere in the drivers I think.

 

[abu baniaz]

My Mrs has Big Boss series 7 on a timer. Has not missed a recording since the fix. (Excluding my hardware fault which results in a lockup.) Your issue may lay elsewhere. Try watching two encrypted channels together, one on webif/mobile and see if you get a problem. The recording issue usually resulted in a blank recording with no length.

 

[mkhan]

The program your referring to is broadcasted on another channel. I have a recording issue with the 8pm and 10.30 pm programs on Star plus HD these two programs tend not to record most often. If I put a single timer recording for them it results in a recording length of 7 minutes and then the rest is blank although the display show the full duration of the recording. Before the recording fix I used to get this issue with recordings from other channels or didn't record at all.

I having to place timer recordings for them on the SD channel instead for the Mrs.

Out of interest has the vix drivers changed last month or so? I noticed recordings started going iffy so went back to older 4d image august time one, also notice it was oscam not working so good on them so use cccam, only problem there get glitching on some channels with that due to servers needing csp update. To be honest tm twin is a bit of a nightmare box my spark triple tuner box does destroy it on stability wise shame because its such a fast box.
