Hello,
I cannot use the Transcode option under “Convert Video While Recording” for the DVR settings. If this is set, all recordings fail with “Transcoder error”. I am using the HDHomeRun Connect. PMS 1.10.0.4523 on Windows 10. I have 2 PMS servers. The other is running WHS 2011 and has the same issue (talking to the same HDHomeRun Connect). Recordings do work with this setting set to NONE. But I then have to transcode the .ts files to M4V for playback on Apple TV.
Log extract from the time the recording starts …
