I’m having a problem where a scheduled recording was aborted for seemingly no reason. At the time this occurred another recording scheduled for a different channel started and completed successfully. The logs indicate that the recordings were scheduled on different tuners.
If anyone has any insight as to what is happening here I’d love to get this issue resolved. I’m including the relevant logs from both scheduled recordings, as well as the log from the HDHomerun Connect tuner.
I am running the following:
PMS 1.9.7.4441
Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
HDHomeRun Connect (Firmware 20170930)
