I was watching a recorded film last night using Plex, when I saw a message coming up on the screen saying, that the recording for “Trapped Episode 6” that was scheduled to start at 21:50 had failed.
I went into Plex o my iPhone and went into the schedule for this episode to trigger the recording attempt again but every time it displayed the same message that the recording failed. Eventually, I gave up but later I found that it had recorded the programme after all.
I have a full set of logs; here’s an extract of my recording attempts:
