LET’S KEEP THIS THREAD ALIVE UNTIL THEY FIX IT!
This just happened to me (AGAIN) tonight, and this time I caught it in the act! (Usually, I just wonder why my seasons are incomplete and blame my available space or the Plex Server being up, etc.) Was going to start a new thread, but found this one. The title here is better than what I was searching for and going to write, and repeating it seems like spamming.
I’ve been recording a 5day/wk news show FOR MONTHS. It’s new every night, then repeats late-night hours later. So, logically, I have long had it set for New Airings only.
Tonight, a Monday, I checked “DVR Schedule” and noticed this show was not going to be recorded. Sometimes something preempts it or a scheduling change occurs, but not this time.
It was recorded all last week; no changes since; and it is still scheduled to record tomorrow. The shows around it recorded fine (same channel), so it shouldn’t be the server, or provider, or space issues (I mean it shouldn’t really be anything, actually). But this single instance just would not record.
I checked the Guide and, consistent with this thread, the Guide looked like it would record AND it was marked as “New” in the Guide.
Lo and behold, it did not record at the proper time. So, hours before the repeat airing, I modified this recording to include Repeats. That affected NO CHANGE to the DVR Schedule, though it should have.
And, as I complete this, the 2nd airing is occurring. It is not recording. But when I click on Record, it takes me to the Record Options interface to Chancel or Save Changes to the Recording (that is not happening). I now have no faith that I can get this to record via Plex.
Is THIS THREAD supposed to fix this?
And even if so, are there in-Plex workarounds? What can be done?
And if that thread won’t fix it, can we PLEASE get a fix happening here? I mean, THIS OTHER THREAD shows that this issue has been going on for YEARS now.
