Server Version#: 1.42.1.10060 Player Version#: 1.109.0.329-ea562b95 Have an odd issue but not sure when this “started” I’m trying to record a program “ABC News” but after I click on record the ‘Record Options’ popup dialog matches an adjacent programme on another channel “ABC National News” Savi…

Hello - I can confirm this has been happening since 10AUG25, as our Plex Server had a scheduled recording of the same program on the same channel which was functioning for almost 12 months up to and including a recording made on 09AUG25 @ 1900 AEST (GMT+10). Our current set up is as follows: Plat…

I concur with your more detailed observations Chamaelion… My existing recording also “disappeared” and my attempts to setup the recording again showed the same symptoms as yours. Also observed the recording schedule picking up other more distant recordings such as your example [image] Chamaelio…

I have the same problem with PMS versions 1.42.1.x and above, series recording Channel 9 and Channel 7 news in Melbourne. It seems to coincide with releases to fix a major security flaw in PMS versions 1.41.7.x up to and including 1.42.0.x Reinstalling the older PMS 1.41.9.9961 fixes the problem b…

Thanks @baaa42 - good to hear there’s a workaround. Anyone reported this as a bug yet?

I can also confirm that the latest beta release (05SEP25, v1.42.2.10122-3749b980e) still contains the error. Thanks @yetinet for linking your issue & helping to keep all the data on this one together :+1:

Yes, it’s good to cross link the forum threads. Shame the recent beta doesn’t fix it. The Plex search continues to frustrate… Live TV searches come up blank for shows that are in the guide. Possibly related to this recording issue but not sure. Hopefully more users will hit the recording issue and…

So, there are two new PMS versions, both released on 19SEP (Argh!): Stable - v.1.42.2.10156 Beta - v.1.43.0.10162 Has anyone tried these out to check if the issue we’re having still exists?

v.1.42.2.10156 doesn’t fix it I avoid beta’s and will retest when it’s a public release I don’t think this issue will be addressed unless more people hit it and report it here

I upgraded to beta 1.43.0.10162 and it still fails. Previously scheduled recordings say that no upcoming episodes are found, and new scheduled recordings record the wrong program. (National News instead of Victorian Local News). I downgraded to 1.41.6.9685 and it works as expected :frowning: I pl…
