Sometimes the menu under music and photos (DTivo) shows my music share and my photo share a whole bunch of times. You can scroll and scroll and scroll until eventually you get an error. Any one you select actually gets you to the right place.

This happens intermittently. Just a little while ago I updated and restarted pyTivo. The problem appeared to still be there but as I am posting this it went away. It probably took 10 minutes to correct itself.

Why does this happen? Can I do anything about it?

Code:

jason@littleone:~> cat /usr/share/pyTivo/pyTivo.conf
[Server]
port=9032

#Full path to ffmpeg including filename
#For windows: ffmpeg=c:\Program Files\pyTivo\plugins\video\ffmpeg_mp2.exe
#For linux:   ffmpeg=/usr/bin/ffmpeg
#ffmpeg=c:\Program Files\pyTivo\plugins\video\ffmpeg_mp2.exe
ffmpeg=/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

#This will make a large debug.txt file in your base directory.  It only
#debugs transcode.py right now.
#debug=false

#  Max video bitrate, default 17408k
#    sets ffmpeg -maxrate setting to minimize bitrate peak playback issues.
#    mpegs with video bitrate above this setting will also be transcoded.
#MAX_VIDEO_BR=17408k

# Audio bit-rate, defaults to 192K for S2, 384K for S3/HD
#audio_br=320K

# Video bit-rate, defaults to 4096K for S2, 8192K for S3/HD
#video_br=12Mi

#Beacon broadcast address(es)
#Typically use 255.255.255.255, but on some multihomed machines you may
#need to specify the subnet broadcast address(es) of your Tivo boxes
#beacon=255.255.255.255

#  Output Pixel Width:
#   Width, defaults to 544 for S2, 1280 for S3/HD
#   Height, defaults to 480 for S2, 720 for S3/HD
#   Valid widths: [S3/HD = 1920, 1440, 1280], [S2/S3/HD = 720, 704, 544, 480, 352]
#   Valid heights: [S3/HD = 1080, 720], [S2/S3/HD = 480]
#width=1280
#height=720
#ffmpeg_prams=-vcodec mpeg2video -r 29.97 -b %(video_br)s -maxrate %(max_video_br)s -bufsize %(buff_size)s %(aspect_ratio)s -comment pyTivo.py %(audio_codec)s -ab %(audio_br)s -f vob -

##Per tivo options

#[MyMovies]
#Type can be 'video', 'music', or 'photo'
#type=video

#Path is the full path to your files (No trailing slash needed)
#For windows: path=c:\videos
#For linux:   path=/media
#path=/home/jason/videos

#Make all subfolders in to top level shares
#auto_subshares= True

##You can have more than one share

Weird. I have no idea. You're the first to report this.

You might mention what version you're using.

I'm no expert, but I would be concerned that you have the following line twice in your config file:

pyTivo.py %(audio_codec)s -ab %(audio_br)s -f vob -

each time it looks like it is the continuation of the line above which starts with:

#ffmpeg_prams=-vcodec mpeg2video

I would try commenting the continuation part.
