I record two programs that are consecutive on the same channel (America’s Test Kitchen at 7:30pm followed by Antiques Roadshow at 8:00pm). I can play the first program mid-recording from the beginning. It works fine. However, when I later attempt to play the second program from the beginning (mid-recording), it actually starts playing from the beginning of the first program (America’s Test Kitchen). And I cannot fast forward; it just starts playing from the beginning of the first program when I try that. I have to wait for the second program to finish recording, then I can play it. The attached log is from the evening that this happened.[Plex Media Server Logs\_2020-06-15\_21-26-14.zip](https://forums.plex.tv/uploads/short-url/8tZvvSHSAilhdmWlUNkKh5qn5SG.zip) (4.6 MB)
