This has been an ongoing issue for me on and off for some time now. I have many series setup to record. For example, Blindspot, which airs on NBC was setup to be recorded. No limits to time or channel. It recorded the entire season last year without any issues. The show has now started up again for it’s final season and the first episode aired on May 7, 2020 but was not recorded. So I have missed that episode and it will not be rebroadcast by NBC and I have no way to watch the missed episode for free.
When I check DVR scheduled, this program shows “no upcoming airings”. Yet, when I search the guide there is an upcoming airing on Thursday, May 14, 2020.
From the guide, I went to the upcoming episode and I clicked on Record, All Episodes and it now shows up as a “new program” to be recorded with the same show icon, title, etc. There are now two entries for “Blindspot” in the list of scheduled recordings. One that shows “No Upcoming Airings” and the new one that shows the next show time.
I can only suspect that something about the series information in the guide has changed and the previously scheduled item has become obsolete.
It is very frustrating to have to “police” the PLEX DVR Schedule to make sure that my programs are scheduled to record.
It is possible that some of the programs identifiers changed after the October 2019 maintenance (see DVR EPG Maintenance ) and if this happened then the only way to fix is to delete the schedules and recreate them,
Also of course any schedules not automatically migrated after we switched EPG provider in 2019 would need to be manually recreated
