Not sure what’s going on? This was a clean install of windows10 and transfered all my setting over correctly and then a few days later the DVR is gone. When I go to add a new dvr first thing is it won’t automatically find the HD Homerun so I manually input the ip and go through the setup process. I get to the end after channel selection and I get the error “the device is in use with existing DVR”. If I clear the databases and open plex I get a yellow bar on top saying there is a HD Homerun on the network but this is with new data base files.
I’m not sure what to do, seems there is some orang currupt in the data base or something. I don’t want to loose all my data with the play-states. Is there a way to fix this without deleting everything?
Looks like I just needed to give it some time, or a reboot, or both. Now the Tuner is working without any further changes other than reboot and time. I saw in another post that after deleting the media* table that you needed to wait for some indexing to happen, so maybe that was the cause.
I’m willing to work with you; restoring a database when an update accidently messes something up; but to then have it occur again is getting ridiculous.
Let me know if you need logs, screen prints or anything that would help.
*** Update: Went into Databases subdirectory as described in the above link, backed up the directory, and the deleted all files that begin with tv.plex.providers.epg*
That appears to have deleted my DVR within Plex, but kept my DVR Schedule. I then easily re-added the DVR, and now it works (again). We’ll see how long that lasts…
