EyeTV - Black (or White) Screen of Death
View

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
Dear all/Felix,

I think I've found a bug:

1) Make a short recording 
2) Play the recording through to the end (using the remote buddy "Recordings" menu) 
3) Now select a live TV channel (from remote buddy "TV stations")

VOILA: Black or White screen of death!

It is appears to be a window issue as hide then show clears it.

 
Am I doing something wrong ?

best, 
chris

Hello Chris,

thanks for all of your contributions.

I'm afraid I can't reproduce your results, though. It works fine, here.

Did you have a number of windows open by any chance?

Which hardware are you using with EyeTV?

Best regards, 
Felix

Hi Felix,

No this is vanilla (no other windows etc except live tv) before the sequence I gave you.

I can't understand what could be different about my config - I can't fail to replicate.

I have customiseed button mappings and the profile/menu but hard to see how that would impact.

Are you in full screen ? Did you play the recording right to the end (only needs a few seconds) then immeidtaely try to select a tv station ?

The only thing I could find is that it doesn't happen when the EyeTv main window isn't in full screen mode (which is never as this is my main tv device).

Any advice on how I can debug it would be much appreciated.

best, 
chris

Hi Chris,

thanks for giving me that extra bit of information. I had only tried 
to replicate in windowed mode.

I can now reproduce the problem and will investigate it further.

Best regards,

Excellent.

Thank goodness. I was getting worried as the wife keeps coming across this error and was threatening to put her foot down!

cheers,
