Open ATV V6.4 Recording issue

[Ironman22]

I have a Zgemma H11S running Open ATV V6.4 and wooshbuild. I'm having trouble recording programs.

The timer will set but the program will not record. I have initialised my USB and set up the swap file. I have set the Mount manager location as media/hdd and the timeshift location as media/hdd/timeshift

The timer will set and the program i want to record will go red with the R symbol but the program doesn't record.

I don't think my IPTV provider is the issue at all because i used to have a Zgemma H2S running Open ATV (Not sure what version) using exactly the same subscription and XE plugin and recording worked fine so I think
it's a setup issue.

The only strange thing that happens which never used to happen on my H2S is that when I set a program to record their is a blue spinning circle in the top left corner of the screen for a couple of minutes like the box is doing something before setting the timer. Essentially the H11S is supposed to be a lot faster and it has a lot more memory than the H2S so I'm not sure what the blue circle means or if it has anything to do with the issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Update the image that is years old and way outdated. Support for wooshbuild stopped about 5/6 years ago

you could consider performing a factory reset on the box. Just make sure to back up your settings if you choose this option, as it will wipe everything

Start with the basics.

Change that image.
Spinning circles tell me the box is struggling with some task. If it crashes maybe a crash log might show you what that is.
Do you have 2 connection ?
Ask your provider if recordings is ok.
If you had no issues with the XE plugin then when you have a fresh image install try that again.

When all that is covered, you do realize recording IPTV is never reliable or to be relied on. Get yourself a provider with a good catchup service, again a difficult task but you may find one.

The box doesn't crash it just has the blue circle for a minute or two and then the timer sets so no crash log

Ok can you recommend a better more up to date image than whooshbuild?

No just one connection. Recording is ok. I have the same provider and connection I've always had and I could record fine on my zgemma h2s running open atv and wooshbuild so i was thinking it was more a setup issue.

You really need a second connection and the only new pre build is willobuild it supports your box.

WilloBuild OpenViX 6.6 Series

Ok thanks for the advice I will try the Willobuild and see how I get on.
