Not yet. I've looked into this before and don't think that you can tell the Replay this.


2 - globally say "if the show says it starts at 9:59, it really starts at 10"

John

I may look into this in the future, but in the meantime, the show pop-up window displays the exact start time and you can then use the start early or start late boxes to adjust for that.

Ryan -

All you have to do is have an algorithm that looks at the "first aired date" and if it's more than x days ago, manually add the R flag.

As to number 2, can this be used to modify existing records??

Today's build...

**** Update to 1.3.2 ONLY

DO NOT UPDATE ANY OTHER BUILDS WITH THIS

Right-click on WiRNSMon in the system tray and click "Check for Updates" or "WiRNS Update" under the Adminstration link on the web page.

WiRNSMon will automatically download any new files and restart WiRNS.

If you are running 1.3.2, you can simply stop WiRNS, unzip to your WiRNS folder and start WiRNS.
If you are not running 1.3.2 yet, you must upgrade prior to using this build.

Changes since 1.3.2:

1.3.2.x x/x/2005
WiRNS
1. Added ProgramFlags, PartsRecord and MovieRecord to downloaded shows and served shows. If none exist, default to TV-Rating as only ProgramFlags.
2. Fix record from show search.
3. Added more index page stuff.
4. More ToDo work.
5. Fix xml end tag.
6. Use Original Air Date to flag shows as Repeat - "Days for Repeat flag" on the DataDirect config page.

Thanks a million! I cannot wait to try this out. This will make the "First Run Only" feature on the Replay actually worth something on networks like Cartoon Netwoork and USA Network.

Once again, thanks a million!

To All ReplayTV Gurus (Ryan, Kjac etc.)

This is to remind you that though it has been a long time since I logged on to this forum, but all your efforts are very sincerely appreciated by each member of this community. You all have always exceeded our expectations and shown the best of your tech expertise as and when required. Keep up the good work. I very strongly support that WIRNS should now be made public at the CNET website (www.cnet.com).

Ryan, what do you think about it ? Isn't it time that people reconized all you gurus' efforts and make use of this wonderful service. I've come across atleast 2 people who own replaytv but did not know about WIRNS. They were so surprised when I explained the entire stuff to them. I'm sure that if WIRNS goes public, a lot of user base will start using it thereby making it a huge success, as it is now.

Run the updater to get this new feature:

Added multiple show paths. Limit to 5 and separate with ";"s.
ex: d:\wirns\shows;D:\DVArchive\Local_Guide

I've tested streaming with a network drive as one of the paths and it worked.

I absolutely COULD NOT get WiRNS to do a GUIDE UPDATE today. I rolled WiRNS back to a previous version (my backup from the "Backup 2005-10-23 08.49.39" folder), and the guide update appears to be working again.

I can post my log files if you want, but I have a feeling that this might be a problem for everyone who has done the latest update.

You may want to see if you can do a GUIDE UPDATE in the current build of WiRNS. I could not.

I just stumbled across this message and WiRNS sounds great!

However I couldn't find a web page or other single source of information to tell me all about it, its features, etc. Does anyone have a link for this info or does it not exist?

My best guess about what WiRNS does is that it controls any replay TV's on your network and tells them what to do. So as you can see I need more info! :) Thanks.

Depends.. If you gain the replayzones via DNNA, you loose the HDTV flag. But, if you don't use zones, uncheck it.

Wanted to note something available via the updater as of today.

WiRNS will go through and check for duplicate shows on all replays and mark them with a yellow background. If the show is downloaded, the background is green, BUT if there is a duplicate show among the replays AND downloaded, the background is light-purple.

Also, The Dreamer added the hider features for Poopli updates on the back-end. I have yet to add it to the web page. If you want to use it, run the Poopli Updater, hide the shows, then copy the <sn>.hide.xml to your WiRNS directory.

11-04-05, 07:57 AM
I have noticed that the status page in WiRNS used to be almost instantaneous. But, ever since WiRNS started checking to see if a show is recording/receiving on a Replay, the time it takes to build that page has increased considerably, especially if you have a lot of shows on your replays. It appears (but I could be wrong) that WiRNS is re-aquiring the Replay guides EVERY time you refresh the status page now.

Would it be too much to ask for a way/option/checkbox to turn this off? I really don't care if WiRNS knows if my replay is recording/receiving, and the extended wait on the status page really has no benefit to me.

Either way, thanks for all your hard work, Ryan!

Double-check your replays config, that they have lineups. Can you select a replay on the WiRNS channel guide?

ok, I am messing around with WiRNS for the first time since the old days when I wrote the GetShellCommands etc. plugin for it. I am having a lot of problems. It doesn't seem very stable and the web interface hangs a lot. The most pressing problem is that I get an "Unable to display the ReplayGuide. Please try again." error message when trying to view the ReplayGuide of my ReplayTVs. This is a fresh install and I believe it is correctly configured (all ReplayTVs detected and added properly by the scan function), so I am not sure what is going on. The log indicates that X items were added to the ReplayGuide also. I just can't see them due to the error.

The exception I get is

[3/3/2006 20:15:57] DoReplayGuide: System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.
at System.Text.StringBuilder.FormatError()
at System.Text.StringBuilder.AppendFormat(IFormatProvider provider, String format, Object[] args)
at WiRNS.GuideServerPlugin.DoReplayGuide(String requestValues)

Ryan, thoughts?

[EDIT - Ok, I figured it out. WiRNS doesn't like how I name my ReplayTVs. I use curly braces {} in the names. For example, I have a unit named "ABC {MBR}" (which means that RTV is located in the Master Bedroom and is dedicated to recording ABC shows). My other 3 ReplayTVs use the same naming scheme. I assume the braces are causing the exception because I changed the name of to just "ABC" and deleted the other RTVs to test, and it worked. Ryan, please fix this problem if possible. Also, there appears to be some problem whereby deleting RTVs in WiRNS does not take effect until a restart. Sometimes it locks the web GUI up after deleting. this may be related to the problem parsing the curly braces though. WiRNS seems to be working much better now that I removed the {} from the RTVs' names.]

You have to forward your IVS ports to your WiRNS PC to use IVSTracker (just like IVSMagic).

I have an ongoing issue with WiRNS updating. Regardless of whether I use the old or new WiRNSmon, I get the same errors. The errors are as follows:

Stopping WiRNS
Backing up current installation
ERROR deleting C:\WiRNS\WiRNS.exe :
Access to the path "C:\WiRNS\WiRNS.exe" is denied.
Updating C:\WiRNS\WiRNS.exe
ERROR updating C:\WiRNS\WiRNS.exe :
Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

Starting WiRNS
UPDATE CHECK COMPLETE

Everything prior to this is fine. This issue has persisted for a long time, and through several versions of WiRNS. I usually end up having to un-install and perform a completely new installation for new versions. Obviously, as frequent as the updates are, this gets to be quite a pain.

If anyone has any thoughts on this, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

I have two questions about WiRNS:

1. My condo building uses Fusion Broadband for cable, which is a mix of local HD programming + Satellite feeds (provided by DishNetwork),but I am told that the channel lineups arent the same as DishNetworks. I believe that once I get moved in, I will find that the channel lineup is proprietary, therefore making it impossible for my ReplayTV to get the proper lineups. Will I be able to customize my channel lineup so that I can say that "ABC is usually channel 5, but for my its, Channel 7" etc.

2. Do I need PC Server to be constantly on and connected to my network? The first post in this thread says all you need is the .NET framework, so I wasnt sure if I needed a PC to act as my server or if WiRNS runs on the ReplayTv itself?

Thanks

Bring out the stack of Bibles, I'm sure it wasn't there. Didn't do a screen print so you won't believe me. Anyway it's there now - not sure why but I'm not complaining.

WiRNS is a wonderful thing. The only thing that would be better for the Replay/
Wirns/ DVArchive setup would be a "unified" view of all the storage, not broken down by where the shows are actually stored. Wonder if the PC version of Replay will try to do something like this.

I've about 3/4 terabyte of disk storage between the 2 RTVs and my htpc, managing the storage is something computer programs can do without getting bored.

Big Media wants to own and manage the stored shows, but as long as they deliver them to me over the air or otherwise I will take advantage of the cheapness of storage (the electric bill is another story) and roll my own.

Thanks for the come-back. :D

I thought I saw a guide on how to do it once before, but i can't find it now- has anyone done this? Is it possible? WiRNS spends ALOT of time pegging my CPU and I'm assuming it's the SQL engine. I have a SQL server here that doesn't do much for me but should easily be able to handle the WiRNS load if a conversion if possible.

Thanks,

Jim

Not anymore. You might be thinking about the 0.7x version.

Sqlite is hard-coded into the app.

wins has been crashing every day on me since the last update. Don't know exactly whats causing it - just getting messages in the event log "the wirns service has terminated unexpectedly... it has done this 4 times. Action taken - service restarted"

What's in the wirns.log and wirns.debug.log when it crashes?

I just installed the latest update... so, I'll have a look if it does it again - it just 'locked up'. The wirns mon showed it OK, but would not restart it... the service died.

Now I'm getting odd messages trying to send via WIRNS...
Show: Eureka - Blink (1156910700) sent from sxxxxx88 to 00004-xxxxx-52970 failed.
Remote Replay info:
ISN: 00004-xxxxx-52970 IP: 00004-xxxxx-52970 Port: 29001

why would it show the IVS as the IP?

And it's web interface is not responding.

I don't know why it would... dvarchive is not at the time serving any shows...

Update: Wirns seems to be doing it's thing in the background, but the web-server is not working at all. Trying to RESTART wirns from the wirns mon ends up hanging the service, and a reboot of the PC is necessary...

Lets see if this one exhibits the same problem...
but - I can't seem to send any more. I try to send, and I get a nearly immediate 'red' screen. The device I'm trying to send to passes the IVS test.

this is what is logged:

it worked the third time I tried it. Odd.

Let's see if I can get through the night without crashing it!

09-01-06, 11:59 PM
I just don't understand it... the 'webserver' crashed again... I can't make it load the web page, or refresh anything... firefox just sits there 'loading' over and over and over..

Does it matter than I'm runnign win2k (all service packs and updates) on a dual core A64 processor?

John

ryan - you've fixed it remotely for me before, so you might have the login information still... give it a try. You won't be able to connect, I expect, even though the log is updating and everything there seems normal.

Trying to stop/start the service from command line:

The service could not be controlled in its present state.

When a show is 'green' in the guide, that means it's copied to the wirns download directories, right? Safe to delete from the replay?

rbolen70
09-03-06, 01:39 PM
There was an issue with my backup rddns server. Got this fixed. When I copied over the updated plugins, I copied over a hosts file that simulated a DNNA server outage. So, any lookups for isn's not known to the backup, would fail.

Cool.

Wirns 'webserver' crashed on me again. Looking at the wirns webpage, which I leave constantly open, it shows the last RDNS status at 11:17:13am.

Clicking on anything causes firefox to try to connect... but it just tries constantly...

here is the current WIRNS log:

Wirns is using 99%CPU...

I just did a clean install of WiRNS 1.3.2b15. Twice now it has hung at max CPU usage for several hours. Makes the HTPC incredibly sluggish. Takes a few minutes to respond to a net stop wirns.exe, but eventually does. The common element is that the last WiRNS log entry both times was "Refreshing RecordingGuide" on the DVArchive on the same machine bound to the same NIC using different IP.

Just wanted to express thanks for keeping this tool up-to-date. Not sure what I'd do without it.

Having said that I do have a request/question and I'm sorry if its been answered previously. Is there anyway to avoid having my guide (in the replay) get messed up around the time that my labs.zap2it.com subscription expires.

Basically, the week after the subscription expires is usually missing 30% of the shows or so and sometimes entire days of everything. I do tricks like adding channels to other devices and then removing them but that doesn't always work.

Is it possible to tell the replay only about the shows that are in the guide so if the changes from the expiration date on are missing then do fill the days with blanks?

Thanks! I'm sure that could be possible, but I want to keep Zap2it data accurate. The message on the index page about subscription expriation shows up around 2 weeks prior to it expiring. If there are blanks, WiRNS does fill them when serving to the Replay.

The first of many dumb questions:

How come I can't delete a show that I previously downloaded.

This is the message I get:

Check to see if the show still exists and is not in use.

I'm getting harassed by: Unexpected result code (851e0001). Any ideas?

This is a first ever attempt to setup WiRNS. Everything tracks the install guide perfectly up until "change the zip code on your replay". At this point it reports "Setting Clock" then the error. The WiRNS log indicates it is servicing the requests and the 'nslookup' check suggests WiRNS DNS functionality is working. I've reinstalled several times, made sure no firewall/virus/spyware apps were running, etc... I wouldn't rule out a network problem, but I've never had trouble streaming shows and the Replays update fine as long as their DNS entries do not point to WiRNS.

I'm stumped and would appreciate any suggestions as to what the error means.

Ryan

Ryan,

I have a pair of 5040's connected to a Linksys switch. That switch is connected to a LAN port on a Netgear router in the adjacent room as is the PC running WiRNS (i.e. although the router is wireless, the Replay network is completely hardwired). The router functions as a DHCP server, but it is configured to assign each 5040 with a constant address (for the DHCP bug). The PC runs XP Home. Although DVArchive is installed, it does not run automatically and I made sure it was not running before trying WiRNS. I did not bother to figure out seperate IPs for DVA and WiRNS because each would only run occasionally and never at the same time.

It looks like the recorder is getting bad data from WiRNS in response to the zip change. I would say I scewed up the WiRNS install, but it is extremely straighforward and there were no complications (I even have the Zap2It channel guide showing in WiRNS). Maybe something is running in the background on the PC so I'll try WiRNS on a different computer when I get back in town.

Thanks for giving this some thought.

Hi again. Since upgrading WiRNS earlier this month, I have not been able to initiate proper connects from my replay. I usually get "There was a problem transferring data from the Replay Service". I've upgraded to the latest but it still fails. It basically goes 92% of the way including getting all guide data but then failed in the last step. I mentioned previously that this usually happens after the labs expiry data passes but it usually works after that. This time it has not successfully updated from a net connect.

I can remove the channel lineup and switch to another. Then remove that and switch back and it works but then fails to do net connects from then on. Any idea what might be causing this?

I was wondering if WiRNS has a function to upgrade software? I used the trick to get IVS and CA back on my machines and it worked fine. I would just like to move to the latest builds which support these features. I'm pretty sure this doesn't exist so, maybe a new feature :). Also, a DynDNS update feature would be great also.

Thanks,

I rolled back to a previous build for a couple of weeks but updated based on your suggestion I've updated again but I'm still having a number of issues with connections.

One thing I noticed was that the update was updating plugin PDB files but not the actual DLLs. I've deleted the plugins directory and reupdated and it seems to be connecting now but it will be a couple of days before I will know if it sticks.

I normally stop wirns and update from wirnsmon so I assume the dlls should not have been in use.

Hi All,

It's been a while since I've been here and it looks like you've been doing some nice work.

I recently enable file and printer sharing, and remote desktop on my Windoze network and for some reason that killed my WiRNs. I've been using a very old version of WiRNS, so I figured I'd upgrade to see if that helped; no love.

When I try to connect it says, "There was a problem transferring information from the ReplayTV Service". I can ping the replay; I can connect with Replay without WiRNS (though I have to cancel the connect for fear of new software); The guide data loads. In the old (command line) version of WiRNs I could see the replay connecting to WiRNs, but it would just quickly run through RDDNS queries; on the same machine file and printer sharing is working, remote desktop is working, my FTP server is working, and general web browsing is working. I've tried versions 1.3.2.12, .15, .16 and .19

I even tried installing WiRNS on my laptop and it has the same problem. Any ideas? Thanks

All you need to do is point your Replay's DNS servers to your WiRNS IP. That will be enough unless you want IVS/CA. Then, you just need to rename shellcmds.example to shellcmds in the WiRNS install directory.

I forgot to mention that. I shut down firewalls for testing when I started having the problem, but that didn't help. (I also did an aribitrary reboot after that even though I don't think that was necessary)

As far as the ports, are you asking about my router or was that still a question about the firewall? I presuming firewall, becasue if 80 is shut down I couldn't browse.


Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.

are you referring to the Wirns "Check for updates" or the selection from within the Administration menu option to update/rebuild the replay guide/todo list??

Yes, on both accounts.

1) However, from the online documentation, I got the impression that the remote control was going to give me a popup window that showed me the result of each of my actions. In IE6, my browsing window just blanks. In Firefox 1.5, my window does not change only accepts my "button" selection.

2) When I try to disable a scheduled record via channel guide, the schedule configuration window will only blank out. Upon refresh or BACK, the record is still there.

3) I figured out why the shows would not download. They were <1 minute (un)recorded shows.

Thanks for any advice you can give

Can you use WIRNS to just update the 55xx series RTV's (CA and IVS features) and still have it get channel guide updates from replaytv? I am having problems getting it to use the zap account. I have two RTV's, one 5K series and one 5540. Both are upgraded to over 150 hours :)

Alright, I give. I need some help from WiRNS Gods...

My installed configuration of WiRNS stopped working. I think this happened when I upgraded to WiRNS Ver 1.3.2.20 (WiRNSMon Ver 1.2.2523.26942).

I’m running it on WinXP along with IVSMagic.
DVArchive runs on a separate computer with its own IP **ONLY** when I’m checking what upcoming shows are going to record or conflict or need it for some other reason.

The WiRNS Service starts.
WiRNS Monitor loads, but only goes Green for an instant, then back to Yellow

The WiRNS.debug.log shows:
[2/16/2007 11:47:53] Refresh(): System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

at WiRNS.WiRNSMain.ForceReplayUpdate() in d:\CVS\WiRNS\WiRNS\WiRNSMain.cs:line 530


Unable to get into WiRNS configuration via web browser. Only option via WiRNSMon is ‘restart’ which ends in the same error.

First Update with noticed error:

So I stopped WiRNS Service and reupdated & files seemed to be copied ok:

This has been fixed. The odd thing is, this function was working perfectly as is until a windows update a few days ago.

Anyway, run the updater and you'll be set.

[For the record...]

Above problem is fixed. THANKS RYAN!!!

But it required manual intervention as the auto update was still failing.

WiRNS_Main.dll and WiRNS_Main.pdb were not being updated because the attempt to delete the existing files was still failing. Neither they nor the directory was ReadOnly.

I simply cut the files and pasted them in a backup directory (for saftey). Then reran the auto update and all was fine again.

Hi all,

Sometimes, huge sections of my RTV channel guide are missing. However, when I look at the channel guide in WiRNS, on the same time slot, the guide is complete. Any idea why the guide on my RTV is incomplete?

WiRNS has lately been getting a bit squirrelly when using IVS tracker. I'm pretty sure it started about the time of the last update (to 1.3.2.20).

First, it won't let me delete any of the entries (current or complete) while a transfer is taking place. I can't be sure this is the case for an external transfer (from poopli), but it is definitely true for local transfers (which DO use IVSProvider).

Second, with attempts to do so (and occasionally without attempts to do so), WiRNS will usually restart on its own (in application mode, rather than service mode) after trying to view or refresh the IVS tracker page again.

It's not a big issue ("...so the doctor says 'Don't do that.'"), but one I haven't seen mentioned.

Update:

It's fixed. I ran the updater, which pulled down the new IVS stuff, and everything seems to be working now (although the default setting for speed was 0, which meant I had to poke around to find out why my transfers from WiRNS to my Replay weren't moving at all for 24 hours).

I have the same problem. I usually revert to an older version (1.3.1.17 works well), download the guide, update the RTV, then shutdown and startup the current WiRNS again. Must be a simpler way!

Back in 1.3.2.16, the default number of days to get guide data was 14, then DD put a limit as to how many days. This can cause the guide hole problem. You can change your DataDirect days to 14 again and I have just made this the default configuration again.

I reformated system last night with Vista Ultimate. I disabled the Windows built in firewall and set the system to have a fixed IP address of 192.168.2.51. After instaling WiRNS (and getting all the updates), my computer is intercepting the Replay 5040's request (IP of 192.168.2.52), however, when my Replay attemps to get the list of providers (on the "ReplayTV Service" screen, at the "Setting Clock" stage, I get the following error message:

"Unexpected result code. (84420005)."

I did the manual time zone update as ReplayTV requested, so I am at a loss. Anyone have any solutions?

Glenn answered this at PlanetReplay. I'll paraphrase here in case someone else wants to know.

WiRNSMon will remember how WiRNS was started last. So just start via the command line, then after that, WiRNSMon will use that.

I've got 3 replays configured to use WIRNS> WHen I "change the zip code" to correct some guide issue, I am still getting the "unexpected result /setting clock error" with the long error code.

If I stop wirns, and re-start it, it works... for about the first 10 minutes that Wirns is runnign...

Any clue as to what might be happening?

Does your Replay hang saying "Setting Clock" for about 1 minute before giving you the "unexpected result"? If so, then you are having a problem with the NTP proxy in WiRNS. I would suspect that the NTP proxy has stopped for some reason and restarting WiRNS gets it going again. You could check for listens on the NTP port, ("netstat -a" and look for port 123). Maybe you will find that when you have the problem there is no listen...

Bigjohns only has a UDP NTP listen:
UDP jcs-amdx2:ntp *:*
But, does not have a TCP NTP listen. He is also running the Tardis NTP client, which shouldn't hurt anything. I have to assume that the TCP NTP listen went away for some reason. Although, since I believe that the Replay uses UDP to set the time, you'd think it would still be working. But, the fact that the NTP listen has gone away has to make one wonder what it going on...

Henry

Bigjohns
04-11-07, 07:14 PM
That is exactly the situation... I checked my copy of "tardis", and it was set to broadcast NTP... I turned that off, then downloaded the newest WIRNS. I'm going to reboot shortly and see what happens.

Ryan,

Sorry to bug you again about this issue, but I am still seeing gaps in the channel guide on the RTV. I am running version 1.3.2.20. I do not see these gaps in the Channel Guide in WiRNS. Please advise.

Since these are the most recent posts on WiRNS, one could easily get the mistaken impression that the death of Zap2it Labs data put an end to WiRNS. Not true! WiRNS 2.0 is available (in pre-release), and can get the proper data elsewhere. Discussion has moved to Planet Replay, not simply died out due to hopelessness. Hooray! I propose that this old and very huge WiRNS sticky on the various problems and fixes people had with earlier versions of WiRNS be un-stickied, and replaced with a new sticky directing people to the relevant resources. I've started a thread that could serve this role (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=907043), but don't mind at all if one of the WiRNS bigwigs wants to do one instead, to provide greater authority and accuracy.
