3. deleting all ap/sc/etc fixes length displaying and makes recording playable but ONLY one from the service with an eit data /?/
on a recording of service that has no eit data playback skips directly to the end of file
hmm, coincidence?

update:
after some more tries on different services it turned out that removing empty .sc makes ALL radio recordings playable,
very strange...

Sorry no, not here.

With these no playback. Erasing all *.ts.* files doesn't change anything except that now in the movie list it says 34 sec instead of 15 min. Erasing the *.eit file still has no effect.

and what if you remove ONLY .ap and .sc files?
//here dlf recording with .sc (0kb) file removed plays fine (with latest enigma empty ap is not created anymore here)

[ims]

for me enought remove .sc file only, because meta and cuts are not empty (on 800se i cannot record form channel without EPG - I must create Timer)

[dvboxer]

It plays for just one second and stops then. At least the time bar display correct values. With the empty files I have negative values for remaining and elapsed times.

Hi,

Radio recording playback is broken tested with enigma2 - 2.7+git9572+8701076-r31 on Xtrend et9x00.
Soem while ago i have tested it, with local DVB-Records and Streamed Services and both worked flawlessly, without removing any Files manually.

[littlesat]

The recordings are still fine when you delete the three additional files... remember that as temper work-a-round

[dvboxer]

I just wanted to debug it so I killed e2 and started it from console. Then it worked. Strange. But another very long recording with 5.1 dolby didn't.

I must be blind - Alternative Radio mode was set as No.
Now I can recording all from radio. For playback enought remove .sc, which is created empty.

btw, dont know, for what is "non alternative radio mode"...

update 2
I found it is one transponder that is affected (and probably it has nothing to do with eit/?/):
1. if I remove sc only file >>> recording is playable
2. if I remove an 'original' .meta file too >>> playback jumps right to an eof...
here's an original meta from affected service (radiopin102fm /fta/ 13e 12284H):

1:0:2:291F:1EDC:71:820000:0:0:0:
instant record

1330867893

0
0
f:0,c:010305,c:031111

and here's newly re-created:

1:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:
instant record

Don't know about one transponder because I used another one but after updating I can confirm that deleting the (empty) sc file renders the recording playable and that deleting the meta file makes it jump to the end. However, this playing attempt recreates the meta file and the recording can be played subsequently. But in both cases where the recording is playable it is not pausable. Pressing Pause just mutes the ongoing playback and the infobar stays on.
OTOH, I still can't get my October recording to work. I deleted sc and ap file and having the original meta-file around or not does not change anything. The playback "starts" but nothing happens as if I had pressed pause (but the infobar vanishes)
So it seems that at least one other patch is needed: Don't create an empty sc-file. Then radio new recordings will be playable again. As for old recordings I don't have an idea. I would share my recording but it is 1.7Gb

Thanks, but what about the pause problem. Can you confirm it?

yep, that's exactly what I've been talking about, problem is that on this one transponder a 'faulty' /?/ meta file is re-created...
(anyway no big issue, there's no need to remove meta file after all, it's rather a curiosity)
//unlike an empty sc file - it is a problem...
edit:
seems that it is no more a problem
thanks @MiLo

Ah sorry, I knew I must have missunderstood. What about pausing does it work on your end?

[blzr]

does not work here as well (actually, audio is turning off when pause is pushed, but a 'silent' playback keeps going forward in the background...)

So it seems that at least one other patch is needed: Don't create an empty sc-file.

hmm, I'm a bit lost now...
at first I've thought it's a new commit, but it's from march 2nd,
and radio recordings still produce an empty .sc files (with up-to-date enigma)...
so seems that this fix does not help... (or?)

Hi MiLo, i think, it does not work. Empty sc file is still created with this patche too.

[ims]

because for radio-recording and empty .sc file it is skipped due:

if (m_buffer_filled != 0)
{

and now it's ok

[dvboxer]

New recordings are playable now but there is still this issue:

But in both cases where the recording is playable it is not pausable. Pressing Pause just mutes the ongoing playback and the infobar stays on.

This is quite annoying since I frequently have to pause when listinging to a recording in order to take care of urgent business. When I want to resume I find that the playback has gone on and on and I don't even have a mark where I started to pause in the first place.

On which hardware do you guys experience this?
Just tested with an et9000, and pause in a radio recording just pauses.
I don't see how we could have broken this, e2 simply pauses the audio decoder (like it always has done in the past), and that seems to work fine.
