Server Version#: 1.19.5

Tuner Make/Model: Hauppauge WinTV-quadHD
Guide/Lineup name: Omaha OTA Broadcast
Using XMLTV?: no
Channel number/Name: 6.3 H&I / AntennaTV
Omaha OTA MacGyver on H&I listed as 2016. It should be 1980’s (1985?). Obviously makes all the matching incorrect.
Found the EPG error form and submitted.
I have checked the EPG data for
6.3 : WOWT Heroes and Icons Affiliate: H&I) and MacGyver has a show year of 1985
Where are you seeing 2016? Could you do an EPG Refresh and then a screenshot of an airing
I think this may be a DVR problem. These are the files the DVR (with some transcoded by me but only the .ts to .mkv was changed):
The DVR thinks the 1985 show on channel 6.3 and the 2016 show on channel 3.1 are the same because it scheduled recording for the 2016 even though I selected the 1985 to configure the recording.
If the EPG is correct then this must be a DVR issue. I renamed the directory and files from 2016 to 1985. I removed the actual 2016 episode. I re-created the DVR recording and specified only channel 6.3 H&I. The 2016 series does not run on channel 6.3. Today this is the result:
Episodes 8-10 are definitely 1985 episodes.
were these S2 E8 - S2 E10 new recordings
If they were new, i cannot see any reason for them to be labelled as 2016
Did you switch to a new library dedicated to DVR TV Shows recordings only - as suggested would be best to do in this post EPG metadata is now retained for DVR recordings ?
Were there any previous episodes in this library that were tvdb matched for this show?
If this is happening with a fresh library then I would like to see the Plex Media Server logs covering the recordings - when the recording finishes and gets post processed and added to the library. Might need to also see the Plex Media Server database and EPG database

The S2 episodes in my previous post were recorded last Saturday. I had matched existing episodes with the 1985 show.
I created a new library. The post you referenced isn’t clear about any specific settings so I left the TheTVDB selected in advanced. I moved the files over for a few shows that I’ve recorded using the DVR. I pointed the recording schedule to the new library.
They didn’t have any metadata. Should I match the existing files?
It’ll be Saturday until a new recording is made.
EPG metadata would be preserved if not matched to thetvdb. With a new library dedicated to just the recordings and no previously tvdb matched episodes should result in keeping the EPG metadata
Checking channel 6.3 airings - all appear to be 1987 episodes and the show itself does have 1985 as the year
If you do get 2016 as a year, please let me know which airing and would be useful to capture server logs covering the time of the recording completing and saving into the library
