have you seen the 'original air-date' in picture 2 and picture 3?
(it's the same schedule, i only clicked on 'activate' to make 2 to 3...)

| Post subject: | mythweb: blue and green boxes |
i am on r5e50 when i do (in mythweb, on a machine connected to the km-box by ethernet and ssh) in manual recording schedules: select a station i want to record from (the station does broadcast), i get a green 'box' (maybe you call it 'background surround') the words 'channu', 'airdat' , 'length'.. the rectangular surrounding the station (on the left) is a broken line. i notice the km-box does NOT record anything. btw: on the right of that line is a button 'activate', when i press it everyting disappears. when selecting another station (which has proven to work), i get that same 'box' in blue (not green), and the rectangular on the left has a continuous line, which gets a broken one on the moment the recording starts. this station DOES record. btw: on the right of this line is a button 'don't record' (didn't press that yet) my question: the green versus the blue will indicate some characteristic of the station (as the green one does not record). what does it say? why does this station not record? btw. i am on astra 19.2 east, recording by dvb-s thanks a lot (btw: asked before about the same station (EinsPlus, not recording), but got no answer on that.: hope no one will be irritated ) |

That sure doesn't sound like the normal Manual recording screen in MythWeb. I see a light blue box on a dark blue page, the main topics in it are: Schedule Options: Recording Options: Advanced Options: Under "Schedule Options:" there are 3 radio buttons, under "Recording Options:" there are a pull down pick list of channels and 5 entry fields for the when to record and what to call it info, under "Advanced Options:" there are the same ones as for normal program guide based recordings. The Custom recording screen starts out differently, with a bunch of search based options, but has the same light blue on dark blue look and the same "Advanced Options:" section. I've got no idea what you're seeing and trying to describe, but it doesn't sound like any version of the screens I've seen. |

Can you give us the MythWeb URL for your page. X-out your IP address if that makes you more comfortable, for example , my manual recording page is: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/mythweb/tv/schedules/manual |

please, look here: http://members.lycos.nl/driepoot99/mythtv/test_schedule.jpg all stations are FTA and non-commercial, at the time the picture was made the topmost was recording, the second and third are not recording. i made the schedules 'non-conflicting' as you can see the third schedule (EinsPlus) is in green. my problem is: why is it green why is the first box not showing '1' as the other two schedules do what should the command 'activate' do (in the 3rd schedule) the km-box does not want to record anything from the EinsPlus station. btw: i have a deep respect for the programmer/programmers of the mythtv/knoppmyth software, but can't help there are some strange problems over here. thanks for looking |

I have similar entries in my Upcoming listings, when I hover my cursor over the Title it tells me "This show does not match the current program listings". What does yours say?my problem is: why is it green why is the first box not showing '1' as the other two schedules do what should the command 'activate' do (in the 3rd schedule) knopprob wrote: the km-box does not want to record anything from the EinsPlus station. I would guess you have a configuration problem in your video sources or channel configuration. I don't know anything about EinsPlus, astra or dvb-s so I'm afraid I can't help there.

What happens if you click "Activate"? I've got entries that look like that in my upcoming recordings list, mostly from things where I've selected "Inactive:" under "Advanced Options:" or where the scheduler thinks it's a duplicate, either of something you've already recorded or will record at another time. The lack of a letter in the box on the left indicates that it's probably the former (inactive). |

thank you both for your attention. when i hoover before clicking on 'activate' i get this: http://members.lycos.nl/driepoot99/mythtv/schedule_test2.jpg when i hoover after clicking on 'activate', i get this: http://members.lycos.nl/driepoot99/mythtv/schedule_test3.jpg the box-line has changed from 'broken line' to 'fat line' note: i made a new schedule for 'EinsPlus' as the former one was not present any more (scheduled time was passed) |

So then you're all set. Don't know what else you did that required forcing it, but it looks like it's going to record now. |

update: to my last posting: no, it did not record. after that i have discovered what was wrong/the cause! after starting up of the KM-box, in the main screen ('watch tv .... utilities), i did: alt-2 alt-s in het appearing main screen (1. general, 2. capture cards, .. 5. channel editor) i activated the channel editor, and went to the channels which showed problems (eins plus, eins extra, eins festival). ALL were having 'lnb-dish' (a self-chosen name in my initial setup) in the 'video source' box; channels which were recording well did have 'astra 19.2e' in this box.. i changed this setting for all 3 'eins' channels to 'astra 19.2e' too.. after saving and making a test recording: the recording was done WELL (no green boxes as in my pictures any more). hope this will help other guys. thanks! |
