Plex TV Recording issue (Not finishing recording)

General Discussions Plex Features

I have been using Plex DVR for a while now with no issues. But since this last update (1.9.2.4285) the recording schedule shows the program being 100% complete, but it won’t finish the recording. It shows in recording schedule but isn’t in plex. I looked in the folder where it should be going and nothing is there. I changed the folder to a single drive (external 1tb drive for testing) just to see if it would do it there. No luck. Again, I had no issues before updating to this last version. Should I go back to the previous version, or has something changed that I didn’t catch?

I’m running,
I7 6700
32gig ram
windows 10 pro
HDHomeRun Prime

I know the for you, you should be able to roll back to 1.6.1 which is what most people have done so long as they’re using HDHomeRun tuners.

If you have the old versions you can just install it over the current install. If you don’t, look at the link below. The 8th post from johnm_ColaSC details how to get the old versions. You only need to install it over the current install but you can do a full uninstall first if you want to.
