[VU+ Duo2] Timer conflicts since update to 4 1 016

[ukoberon]

updated yesterday (Flash and restore settings) all seemed well to start. Now getting timer conflicts all the time since first recording post update has happened. Have deleted previously set timers and tried to re-add - but keep getting timer conflicts. Having to remove the previous timers as message keeps coming up randomly.

Not sure what to do. Any advice please . Many thanks

Upload your timer xml files.

You did try to resolve the conflict (using the on screen sanity conflict manager)?

Always better to add as an attachment (you have to zip/rar some files). You may have deleted something that was unimportant to you, but significant to issue.

 

[ukoberon]

have uploaded full timer xml here - sorry, wasnt sure what to do but worked it out. (Perhaps one of the mods would be kind enough to edit my previous paste job from above)

 

[ukoberon]

ok - i think i have got to the bottom of it - i had cleared all my autotimers but still had 2 odd entries in timers that pointed to 0.00 (not 28.8) Im not sure where they came from but have deleted them and the issue has gone away and i can now add the normal stuff i record. Thanks for patience with me.

ok - i think i have got to the bottom of it - i had cleared all my autotimers but still had 2 odd entries in timers...

The timers you posted were repeating timers. Two of them were for the same programme (Gogglebox) at the same time, with the same repeat request.

Thanks Birdman - the strange ones are "The living and the dead" s these seemed to have duplicates that pointed to 00.0 as opposed to 28.8 - once deleted the issue has gone away and all is running well now.
