New drive/image 24 hours in C&DE

Advertisements

Isn't KS 58 supposed to be similar to 57 and display the GSOD? When doing KS 58 I get "Installing an update" and then a standard startup. That sounds like what KS 56 does, right? I tried it twice to make sure I didn't just hit the wrong numbers but it was the same both times.

More info that might help troubleshoot the issue. When I look at the recording History I see a bunch of entries that say "Not Recorded". If I press "info" for any of the recordings it says "This show was not recorded because of an unknown reason (R115)".

I can try KS 76543210 next if that still seems like the best option. I'm still wondering why I should be having problems at all with a brand new disk and clean image? I'm assuming others have also used this exact same disk image and not run into problems, right?

 

TSN is TiVo Service Number? It's not all zeros. And I'm trying to view recordings made on the same machine. I can view them fine until I reboot, and then they vanish.

More of the same.

Interestingly, KS 57 no longer goes to GSOD before booting up. Is that normal after running KS 57 previously or does that seem odd?

Recordings seem to work and show up in "My Shows" and are viewable, but disappear after a reboot, i.e. there is nothing in "My Shows" except the Welcome To Tivo and THX Optimizer. Note: my recordings from live TV do NOT show up in "History". Is that normal? What I see in History (the failed recordings) are the shows that the TiVo decided on its own to record. So far I have been testing by recording live TV for a minute or two only, then stopping the recording. As another test I've now scheduled a future recording and this time I'll let it record the full show before I try a reboot. Will report back on that later. But so far no luck on preserving recordings past reboot.

 

Update:

Shows scheduled for future recording also work as expected (meaning, they record as expected, and can be viewed after recording is done), but are lost after reboot. They show up in History as Not Recorded (Unknown Problem R115).

OnePasses DO survive reboot.

I don't know anything about TiVo internals so won't begin to speculate. Seems odd to me that clearly it is writing to the disk and saving info, just not for recordings.

 

So, the whole thread started when C&DE ran for 48 hours and I eventually gave up, erased the disk and restored the image again. I'll start C&DE again now. How long would you say to let it run before abandoning hope?

UPDATE: C&DE completed very quickly this time! Will report back...

UPDATE: First test of recording surviving reboot successful! Hooray! Will continue to test but looks much better. The C&DE seems to have done the trick.
