Hi!
I’ve been trying to set up the DVR function, and it works for some shows in some channels. I guess the problem is in the EPG data that’s coming from my provider. Though I’d like to be able to record shows and sport events, even if the data that identifies it is missing some properties.
The errors I’ve got using the Apple TV app was:
Add a new Library to your server to be able to schedule this recording
But I already have 5 libraries, one for each category, and even some extra ones for anime, separate from tv shows. In the web player is more straightforward and just says “Unexpected error”.
And for good measure, here’s the server logs related to this. When I was figuring all out, the response in the browser I’ve got was a “400 Bad Request”, and checks out with the logs and the issue is clear: I get an html instead of a MediaContainer in the response.
I’ve been reading the documentation of both xTeVe and Plex to figure out something, but there was no reference to MediaContainer in both.
If the problem’s not Plex, then please answer so I create an issue for xTeVe or even try fixing it myself (and PRing the fix)
Here’s the server log:

EDIT: I want to add that the EPG Data, although could be missing some properties, the identification for the shows are quite good, I’ll drop a screenshot:
