Live TV DVR missing, the device is in in use with existing DVR

Having same issue (repeatedly) as @Ksullivan86 (above).

Had issue a month ago, performed “Restoring a Backup” as found in:
Restore a Database Backed Up via ‘Scheduled Tasks’ | Plex Support

…and it fixed the problem.

…for about 3 weeks…then it came back again.

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…
