Uk broadcast Coronation Street

General Discussions Plex Features

Hi,
The UK show Coronation street can air two different episodes on the same evening either side of another 30 min show.

What I am experiencing is that only the first show records. After Plex records the first episode the second episode is removed from the guide. The second episode does not record even if i hit the record when it’s playing live.

I have noticed the the files for this show do not contain ant series and episode details in the file name although in plex the show does but always labeled as Part 2.

Is there a work around or fix

Cheers, Ian

I’m having the same issue…

The issue has been raised and the development team is actively working on it

Today’s Beta Release 1.11.3.4793 has changes to address multiple episodes on the same day and will hopefully resolve most of the cases. (I say this reservedly because the information available for multiple episodes may not actually have identifiable differences.)

  • (DVR) More fixes around recording multiple airings of a show on the same day (#6668)

This fixes the problem where only one episode was recorded.

There remains an issue with episode identification in the library and that is because of the lack of the detail in the Gracenote data. The airing time is used in this fix to label the episodes differently.

Thanks to @“Kings Media” for the additional user testing for this fix
