Hi, I just got a HDHomerun Connect and I configured it on my plex server. I scheduled a live sports event and was hoping to watch it, but it’s still recording. I expected that the show would appear in my TV Shows library as soon as the recording started but it’s not there. Am I expecting too much? …

I hate to admit this, but it turned out be a file system permissions issue on the server. I’m running it in docker using bind mounts and the container runs as my user, but the save location wasn’t writable. All is working as expected once the perms were fixed. Sorry!

How does one watch DVR recordings as they're being recorded?
