Did the DS9 episode even record? Plex shows 0 available tuners.

So the HDHR at 192.168.0.151 had no tuners available. However the tuner at 192.168.0.156 had 2 tuners available for the other recording.

Not sure why Plex wouldn’t use the HDHR with 2 available tuners. If there a difference in channels selected for your different HDHR? Which HDHR is the 192.168.0.151 device?

It’s the connect. Also remember that I have an extend and 2 duals for a total of 8 tuners… There are no errors in the system log for the hdhomerun. I haven’t had any other issues with any other shows.

If you go into the DVR settings is the connect showing that it is recording shows currently? I had an issue where Plex was showing one of my connects as recording one show when there was no recordings running at the time. So Plex would only use one of the tuners. After reboot all was cleared up. Wondering if your connect is having a similar issue.

I find it sooo fascinating that there are several threads on this same topic.
Tons of user observations postsed…
Plethoras of logs posted…
Hundreds of posts with Info for Plex…

And in all that not a single response from Plex reps AT ALL!!!

So tell me DVR is NOT a trainwreck waiting to happen…

I hate when about 30% of my scheduled recordings fail. Unfortunately, it is what it is and that is how it seems Plex wants to leave it.

Plex has forced all of us to live with it…

@jjrjr1 - While it is annoying that Plex reps haven’t responded, this is a beta feature. So not something you should expect to be reliable. Don’t rely on it as your primary DVR if you want dependable recordings.

@kamererhouse
Absolutely, I do not depend on it. I have been a Plex Pass member MUCH longer than DVR has been around.

But for folks who purchased Plex Pass to gain DVR… might not feel that way.

But in any case if Plex plans to make this a viable product they should be communicating with us who have been so kind as to pay for the privilege of testing this train wreck…

At least acknowledge us!!!

And to make it even worse… Unless you pay for Plex Pass a person does not even have access to this sub-forum to help make an informed decision before purchase. How many folks do you think would PAY money to get a Beta Test Product with these sort of problems.

Plex is being a little deceptive IMO.

@jjrjr1
I agree. If they are listing beta features as a benefit to Plex Pass (which they are) they need to clearly label them as such with a disclaimer.

No posts in over a month. I paid for the Plex Pass so I could get DVR functionality. Half of my shows do not get recorded. If I happen to look at the schedule, I see an error that says recording was aborted, but that goes away after awhile and there is no indication that the particular show was even scheduled to be recorded. I don’t see anything in the logs that shows there was an error, or what caused it. Version 1.5.5.3634 if anyone cares.

Since no one from Plex has responded to this thread, I don’t know if anyone is working on this issue. This is the only premium feature I use. I guess I should cancel my Plex Pass and try again next year. I really don’t like paying for beta software.

You are not on the latest Plex Pass release. Visit the download page and manually update to 1.7.3.

Yes plus what was said above. if you experience problems upload you logs so we can take a look at them and see if there is a problem that needs to be forwarded to the devs.

How are things forwarded to the devs?

OK…I’m also having the same issue. I have had 2 good recordings, since system updates, Plex Pass etc… My HDHomeRun was not in use by any other user. When I checked on my GUI, it stated “Recording aborted”. Is there anyone from Plex, watching this forum? It seems like a longstanding issue!

I’m getting the same thing - “Recording was aborted” . I’m on a Plex Pass free trial, but if I can’t figure out what’s wrong, and there are no meaning logs or support from Plex, I’m going to have to abandon this project.

I think it is related to the OTA signal. I have recordings that keep getting aborted, but they are the channels with the worse reception. I practically never see it on the strongest channels. In other words, I can have an aborted recording (weak channel), then immediately get a good recording (strong channel), then get an aborted recording again (weak channel) all within hours of each other.

Now why Plex is aborting the recording I don’t know. Windows Media Center just gives me a crappy recording that is almost too pixelated to watch, but at least it records the whole thing. Usually.

This could be true in your setup, but I know it wasn’t the case in mine, simply because I have a cable card and when plex aborted, I didn’t have any issues connecting to the stream using the HD Home Run windows 10 app.

When you say you don’t have any issues, are you saying there are no pixelation moments where the sound or video gets slightly distorted for the entire hour?

Because I can connect to channels without problem, but my weaker channels have pixelation problems from time to time as the environment changes and those are the ones with the biggest abort problems.

I don’t want to de-rail this thread. Are you asking me about quality when using my cable card? I haven’t noticed any signal issues.

I’m having the same issue as everyone else. I think I’m going to abandon the DVR functionality for awhile and just stick to live tv.

Pretty new to Plex and so far have not been able to get my schedule working. After some false starts with the Nvidia Shield not having write access to the USB drive, I thought I finally had it all working. Then the first show failed to record. Here is info from the log. Nothing pops out at me initially.

I have the same issue. Just random Recording aborted. I’m not using Plex for live TV, just DVR. I’m pretty sure is it not signal and is set up on cable QAM channels. Sometimes, the turner reports that it is recording something, but nothing is on the schedule. One time I caught it when it said that both tuners were recording, when in fact I only had one recording scheduled at the time. I decided to watch Live TV and it asked me if I wanted to stop recording a show I never heard of on Channel 2.1. I cancelled that and I was able to watch my Live TV while recording. Not sure what is going on.

Looks like an update to the Plex Media server Beta channel last night. After reading the change log descriptions, it appears that some of the items in this discussion may have been worked on. My fingers are crossed.
