I seem to have a problem with several Formula 1 episodes thus far this year, I haven’t lost a race yet, just practice and qualifying. This morning, I did completely lose he recording of the Spring Qualifying. Is this an issue with the EPG, or is there something else going on? Sometimes, deleted the series scheduled recording and rebuilding it is effective, but should not have to do that.

Edit: This is by far the most problematic series recording, I don’t think I’m experiencing this with any other series.

It seems the scheduler thought that specific airing already existed in your library:

Jul 17, 2021 09:30:03.066 [0x7fbc68cc4b38] DEBUG - Subscription: We found a match in the library for 'Formula 1 Racing - British Grand Prix, Sprint Qualifying'
Jul 17, 2021 09:30:03.066 [0x7fbc68cc4b38] DEBUG - Subscription: No match in the library for 'Formula 1 Racing - British Grand Prix', grabbing.

Jul 17, 2021 09:30:03.066 [0x7fbc68cc4b38] DEBUG - Subscription: No match in the library for 'Formula 1 Racing - Hungarian Grand Prix, practice 2', grabbing.

So, it scheduled the other three airings to be grabbed, but not the Sprint Qualifying:

Why it believed that is not clear from the logs. If you recorded yesterday’s qualifying and it was still in your library, it may have been confused by that.

So, is it a fault with what’s coming from the EPG, or is there a logic fault in PMS? Today’s qualifying was not recorded, but both of yesterday’s episodes were recorded. Either way, I’m not happy, I’ve been watching qualifying and the race, but tend to not watch the practice sessions. I have more than enough disk space, I’ll keep the entire season and remove the whole shootin’ match after the final race of the season. Due to the way that it comes in, I don’t think I can skip recording the practice sessions.

And this gets better… Now PMS is recording the rebroadcast of this morning’s race (I’ve cancelled…) Attaching current logs.
