Minor bug setting instant recording

On the U4 I set an instant recording of HDMI IN at 10:33 pm on 30 October (ie not the end of the month if that matters). I think I pressed record from liveTV with HDMI IN the active source to activate the pop-up menu.

The pop-up menu came up but with a duration of 1 day and 2hrs, not simply 2hrs. This was unexpected but I thought at first it was saying simply the timer spanned midnight.

I edited the hours to 1 hr but couldn't change the 1 day element. It appeared to be outside the field that can be edited.

I came back two hours later and the timer was still running. It was clear it was going to run > 24 hours. Manually terminated the timer.

Probably best to correct the timer default behaviour if feasible. Seems the issue only arose because it was within 2hrs of midnight when I set the timer. This is a minor bug so it's not a priority to fix ahead of promoting the RC.

Got to go out now so I'll be offline until late today.

I just tried to replicate this. I started an instant recording on a T4's HDMI IN at 22:49. The end time was set to 00:47 and the duration was set to 1:59.

I may need more details to be able to replicate it.

Thanks for trying prl.

I'm beginning to think it was a glitch. I repeated the process tonight and got the expected result and not the bùg. I'll try again tonight.
