When that setting is on, what are its effects? The mounted network share effectively becomes the PVR's HDD, or replaces it, if it has a HDD. But timers aren't stored on the HDD, whether it's a real HDD or a network share that's been mounted as the HDD. But it means that if PVR A mounts PVR B's HDD ...

There is a lot of DP series stuff in https://www.beyonwiz.com.au/media/downloads/, including manuals, but there doesn't seem to be anything there about the AP-U1.

What do you need to know?

prl

You've done nothing wrong other than being using the V2 at the time that you've asked it to automatically reboot. You presumably don't want it to just reboot while you're using it, do you? The popup will only come up after the start time for the timer, and after any running recordings heve completed...

Any other suggestions?

You don't seem to have addressed the ones that peteru and I made.

Does the V2 have a HDD? Did you restart the V2 with both the HDD and USB stick connected when it restarted?

And when you say "with 20+ recordings it will only display the first 6", what is "it"?

Do you also see <n/a> in other places where channel names are displayed, like in the channel list (FAV from live TV), or in the infobar when watching 10 Bold (press OK while watching 10 Bold). Another Beyonwiz user has posted on the IceTV forum about the channel name for 10 Bold not appearing in Syd...

If so how is this done as there isn't a usb port to plug it into? The V2 has 2 USB ports, both on the rear. When you say it has no USB ports, do you meant that both the USB ports it has are in use? If both ports are in use, you'll need to get a USB hub (probably one with an external power supply) t...

I just need to find a list of button codes e.g. 352 means the "OK" button on RCU

This may help: https://bitbucket.org/beyonwiz/easy-ui- ... /keyids.py

In particular, "KEY_PLAYPAUSE": 164.

No problem.

What do you want to know about it? Dolby Downmixing is a process where Dolby 5.1 sound is downmixed to stereo. Disabling it means that the original 5.1 audio is delivered.

prl

Do you mean something like the Web API that Open Webif uses? That's documented here: https://dream.reichholf.net/e2web/

prl

And does it help with the problem?

prl

OK, but what is the streaming protocol between the Beyonwiz and the TV? If it's DLNA, then closing down the T4's DLNA server will prevent access from the TV. Have you tried it? Just stopping the DLNA server should be enough for you to check whether it's effective.

prl

You can disable the DLNA streaming server on the T4, if that's what your TV is using. In MENU>Setup>Network>DLNA Server, press RED Remove Service. That will remove the DLNA service from the T4. It canm be reinstalled again by going to MENU>Setup>Network>DLNA Server and reinstalling it. If that's two...

You should be able to navigate into the My Passport for Mac folder and then to the destination folder you want to use when you're asked to "Choose copy [or move] directory" when you do a Copy or Move.

Is that not working for some reason?

I'd guess from the two volume names shown that the HDD was formatted on a MacOS, and that the two volumes on the HDD (one of which is not shown when the HDD is mounted on a Mac) are formatted as Mac HFS+. It's a bit unclear exactly what's in the Boot OS X folder. If you open MENU>Information>Devices...

That problem can be avoided (on newly created folders) by enabling "Use portable folder names" in the Series2Folder configuration screen. Use portable names should be enabled by default. But it will mean moving all the recordings from the folders with names containing characters not allowe...

I'd be happy to run a debug version if that helps you but my problem is intermittent. Can be ok for weeks. Not a problem on the T4. The fact that your issue intermittent is exactly why I haven't already asked :) It just occurred to me that an issue may be in the folder name. Warning: This next bit ...

Thanks for the details about the recordings. The U4 is on 24/7 but reboots daily in the early hours, around 6:00 AM. I never put it on standby. Sometimes it has recordings running until around 1:00 AM. Series2Folder should do an automatic run about 2 minutes after the enigma2 application starts afte...

prl

Strange. You've mentioned Home and Away recordings (presumably from FTA) and HDMI-IN recordings as not being moved, but does the problem happen only for particular shows, or, when the moves stop working, does it affect all new recordings on the PVR? Also: do you normally keep the PVR in standby or i...

Has anyone managed to use the Hauppauge twin tuner to work with the Beyonwiz T2? On a T2 with the standard firmware drivers, it's not even recognised in the Linux kernel.

Thanks, Paul. I still haven't heard back from the OpenATV user about tests I asked them to run with added debug code in Series2Folder. When the cause of their issue becomes clearer, it might clarify what's causing your missed moves, too.

I have experienced flakiness in S2F. Works fine for ages moving home and away to a folder in the background but lately, they pile up in the movies directory, which is on the internal HDD on the rear U4. Works fine on the T4.

I am working on some fixes to Series2Folder: Trying to debug why it works just fine on one of an ATV user's PVRs, but only works when run manually, but not in the background, on the other. One unusual thing in the case is the user has both PVRs recording to (different) Windows shares. If anyone else...

Hi there. Where would I find the timer log please? The timer itself disappears after the recording event.

2. We tried the cable in another port on the switch no go. I guess by "no go" you mean "connected at 100Mb/s" rather than "didn't work at all"? 3. I have a laptop. Is there a way to test the cable at u4 end and at least rule out u4? Is the laptop the same computer as t...

prl

This is where an Ethernet cable tester makes the job a lot easier. My managed switch can do simple cable tests by itself, though when I had the connection problem, its estimate of where the fault was was way out – the distance said that it was a far-end fault, but it was actually a near-end fault.

prl

Perhaps the cable with the broken clip has twisted one of the Ethernet socket pins so it now isn’t making proper contact with the patch lead. You may need to have a close look with a magnifying glass or something similar. This sort of thing can cause a drop in Ethernet line connection speed from 1G...

Are you using AutoTimers? And are the multiple recordings each complete recordings of the whole show?

Is there anything I need to do before I start using the blue button again? There shouldn't be, but all your old auto timers will be gone. It might be possible to reconstruct some of the old autotimers from the saved copy of the corrupted autotimer.xml file, but it may not be worth the effort, and w...

But only OpenViX and OpenATV have IceTV support, if that's important. Yes and instant skipping, not the FFW rubbish.
