Mailing List Archive: Seeking during recording

I'm running mythtv on Fedora 32, version

mythtv-31.0-15.139.20210226gitb6ddf202a4.fc32.x86_64.

Recently, I've noticed some confusion seeking while watching something that
is still recording. As it gets near the time when I first started watching,
it jumps to the end showing the wrong time and cannot seek backward. For
example, if I start watching 30 minutes into a one hour show, as it gets
past 30 minutes, it cannot seek forward or backward. If I stop watching and
start again, it can seek to the current time when I started watching again.
For example, if it got stuck at 30 minutes and I stop watching and restart
at 40 minutes, it can then seek up to 40 minutes and will exhibit the issue
again at that time. I am not sure when this behaviour started.

Regards,
Mark

The fix for #352 is currently being tested. If all goes well this fix will
be committed to master and a bit later also to v31.
When that has been done please check if your problem has been solved.

Klaas.
