Hello, I’m using the latest stable version of Plex and I’m in the dog house again and so I’m typing this in angst so I apologize in advance…
My wife turned on the Apple TV and opened plex like she always does, went to watch something- it was playing for a few seconds and then it would quit back to the Plex Guide. She’d open it again, and it would quit even quicker back to the Plex guide, she did this a few times until I came in where she gave up and threw the remote at me. I took a look a the Server and found what looked like a memory leak, so I rebooted it. Once it came back online, everything was working again, but my reboot interrupted a few recordings in progress.
Now, I cannot seem to get those recordings to get going again. Everytime I click the record button again, I just get the scheduled recording prompt and I can’t seem to get it to start recording the show again. I’ve cancelled the series recording and rescheduled it, I cancelled that again and just recorded the single show instead of creating a series recording. I can play the channel just fine, but I can’t get it to start recording it again.
Please help! I’m really close to dumping plex and just going back to Windows Media Center with a new guide data source. This is absolutely terrible, Plex needs to handle DVR recording interruptions better. All I want is for it to restart recording on it’s own or even let me do it if I can.
I’m running the latest stable build on Ubuntu 16.04
Thank you!
