Limit to Airing Time with "Minutes before start" Bug

When choosing the “Limit to Airing Time” within a recording in conjunction with the “Minutes before start”, there appears to be a bug.

The “Limit to Airing Time” shows the real start time (ie 7pm) in drop down form, and I have 1 minute in the “Minutes before start” box.

The scheduling engine does not see any upcoming airings.

When I take away the “Minutes before start” OR do not choose “Limit to Airing Time”, the airings show as planned. It seems the “Minutes before start” is being deducted from the start time when it is being compared to the “Limit to Airing Time” in the scheduling engine.

Plex Server - Windows - Version 1.13.4.5251

I believe this should have been fixed back in 1.13.1 - if you’re still seeing this, could you please replicate and provide some logs? :slight_smile:

Can you provide me how to share logs ?

I can maybe provide a screen video of it happening?

I want to correct something as well. It has nothing to do with “Minutes before start”, just simply choosing the only time slot in the drop down makes the scheduling engine not show the recording will take place

This should point you towards being able to share the server logs. :slight_smile:

If you can replicate it, then post the logs (along with some information about what show and when you replicated), it would be much appreciated :slight_smile:

Here is my best stab

Show: Jeopardy
Zip: 27612
Airing Time: 07:00pm
Channel: 11.1 (ABC)

In the “Recording” section, I click on Jeopardy, and then go to “Show Advanced”. From there, anytime I choose the only time in “Limit To Airing Time”, then the show does not show that it will record. When I remove the “07:00 PM” from the “Limit to Airing Time” and set it back to “Any” the show shows that it will record as planned.

I have attached logs as wellPlex Media Server Logs_2018-07-16_21-15-32.zip (1.9 MB)

@DaveBinM Just replicated the problem. Will send you logs by PM.

Internal issue filed for this regression.

I’m having the same problem. Specifically with Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune. When I try to pick a specific airing to record, it shows that no shows will be recorded. However, when I pick “Any” it shows that it will record. I do not have “minutes before start” added to either show.
