RECORDTOGGLE no longer working in LiveTV in 31?
Hi.

After I upgraded to mythtv 31; the RECORDTOGGLE key (R by default) no
longer starts a recording when watching live TV.

I can start a recording from the TV guide fine which shows that the R
key is having an effect at least.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Thanks
JY

Hi Jean-Yves,

Sorry for the delay. I meant to answer this earlier. Yes, I've seen
it with v31 (or maybe v30). What version are you using?

I checked today on master and it works -- sort of. It does arrange
for the recording to continue recording if the player exits and also
does some other book keeping. I'm not entirely happy with how it
interacts with the scheduler, however. It likely causes things to
behave strangely in some situations. I need to think some more on how
it should be done, or at least how it can be done better.
