Duplicate timers/recordings from autotimers

Issue #256 closed
Former user created an issue

This appears to happen when there are consecutive autotimers/timers.

A single timer is created for each autotimer but by the time of recording, multiple recordings are created.

This is usually for the second event and not all recordings are for the full length. And some seem to split the event, ie two recordings for the one event one starting at the end of the other but not by the end of the program.

Reproduction steps

Create two autotimers for consecutive events and let them record.

    Now that I have examined the files, it looks like the 3 files are actually 3 parts of what should be a single recording, with slight gaps in between. The time stamps all are of when the recording should have started.

    It's happening again with the same autotimers. Still recording so not sure yet of all the details but there are 3 recordings again already for the second timer. I am using padding of 7/25 and the first section ran 44 minute 20 seconds according to the file listing. The second section is listed as 29 minutes 57 seconds, with the third still to come.

    This is on ABC1 on Saturday.

    The first timer was for Lessons from the Grave (20.23 - 20.31 according to the EPG) and appears to have been completed correctly.

    The second was for ABC1 Old School (20.32 - 21.29 according to the EPG).
