Partial recordings between 1 second and 50 seconds for DVR

All of my recordings recently seem to have been partial recordings of between 1 and 50 seconds. Looking at the logs (see attached) it mentions network failure although I wasn’t sure if this was for the Plex server or the HDHomeRun. Also, they are both on wired connections (with HDHomeRun connected to a Powerline adaptor) so I’m not sure why it seems to be so frequent.

Does anyone have more details on the possible cause?

Also, I’m on the latest version of the Plex server: 1.16.5.1554 (Mac)[Plex Media Server Logs_2019-08-27_17-57-45.zip (2.6 MB)

I know some of our employees had similar issues when using powerline, but were resolved when they moved to a standard ethernet connection. Perhaps that’s something you could try?

Thanks, I’ll try that. Also, it seemed to get worse after installing the most recent Plex server update. Is is worth reverting that?

I have problems with partial recordings as well on my iMac as well, any update on this issue?

My solution was to just install the Plex server on a Windows 10 laptop instead (with the exact same set up of a HDHomeRun connected to a Powerline adaptor) and I haven’t had any problems since.
