I have also been experiencing issues with this in the web PVR on Windows 
10 Pro with version 3.34.0. I've not yet gone to 3.35.0, but found that 
there were issues with "hibernating tabs" in Vivaldi, my default 
browser.

For both the Cache and PVR Run tabs I went to the following address:
vivaldi://discards
and toggled the entry in the Auto Discardable column for them to disable 
this status. Since doing so all is working well again.

I'm not sure if I will need to do this each time I start the Web PVR 
e.g. after a machine restart. I think this applies to most Chrome-based 
browsers as the original page I foumd mentioned was chrome://discards, 
Vivaldi changed the reference. The hibernation seems to stop the reload 
specified in the web page on initial load, 1 hour, 4 hours or whatever 
is selected in the Settings section of the Search PVR page initially 
displayed when the Web PVR is started.

Apologies if the formatting of this message is not quite right as have 
been a read only user of the mailing list until now.
