MythArchive is complaining about an invalid field

[Chris kapp <chris.kapp@…>]

After attempting to use MythArchive, the backend log in Mythweb is showing the two following entries:

Driver error was [2/1054]: QMYSQL3: Unable to prepare statement Database error was: Unknown column 'offset' in 'field list'

Error preparing query: SELECT chanid, starttime, mark, offset, type FROM recordedmarkup WHERE chanid = :CHANID and starttime = :STARTTIME;

My current version of Mythtv is fixes/025(v0.25.1-49-g65913e7)

I have just created a short dvd iso file using a cutlist. It worked perfectly. I suggest that you experiment with a short recording first. I think that :CHANID and :STARTTIME above should be numeric strings. The logs didn't include the command generated, because there was no error. If you can't make it work seek help on the users list, with info about the kind of file you are trying to encode.

I'm still on 0.24.3 but I don't think that's relevant here.

Here is some more information. This is only happening when I use the option "Create Archive" and doesn't appear to cause issues with the archive dvd. My recordedmarkup table shows the following:

Field	Type	Null	Key	Default	Extra
chanid	int(10) unsigned	NO	PRI	0
starttime	datetime	NO	PRI	0000-00-00 00:00:00
mark	mediumint(8) unsigned	NO	PRI	0
type	tinyint(4)	NO	PRI	0
data	int(11) unsigned	YES		NULL

I also had a conversation in mythtv-users irc earlier today. (​http://irc.mythtv.org/ircLog/channel/1/2012-06-30) where stuartm confirmed the field 'offset' was dropped a long time ago.

OK. 'offset' is in recordedseek, in bytes. Cutlist processing in mytharchive uses frame counts anyway. I've never seen a progress log when using mytharchive in 'Create Archive' mode in 0.25. I thought I had opened a ticket about that, but maybe it was just this:

I see that the final section of that post duplicates this ticket :-)

[J.Pilk@…]

It's trying to copy the recordedmarkup table but has its structure wrong. That explains why the import process doesn't find that table.

It looks as if changes are needed in mytharchivehelper/main.cpp at lines 777, 788, 789 and 1324, 1325, 1329.

I'm not set up to build from source yet. Looking at code for 0.25-fixes.

[blm-ubunet@…]

Attach patch for 0.25+fixes git. Tested by: Archived a recording with cut-list etc. The generated .xml file now contains correct recordedmarkup & recordedseek data. Previously the recordedmarkup was missing. Deleted original recording & then re-imported from archive. "New" recording has complete metadata, cut-list & seektable.

patch fix incorrect use of offset in recordedmarkup
