Could you get me screenshot and Plex Media [Server log](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200250417-plex-media-server-log-files/) with debug enabled when setting up DVR with xmltv file - there are two methods - either an absolute path to an xmltv xml file or a url for web hosted xmltv epg data

see [Using XMLTV for guide data | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/using-an-xmltv-guide/)
