Watching a DVR'd show before it finishes recording

Is there any way to start watching a show while its is still being recorded? The shows that are recorded only show up in plex after the recording is finished.

I’m not sure if this is what you are asking but I was able to do the following:

Started watching Live TV channel 113 Chiller “Tru Calling” via iOS. I had previously setup a series of recordings via PMS for 5 episodes of “Tru Calling” on that channel. The recordings went to completion and the streaming to iOS never stopped. Only one tuner from the SiliconDust HDHomeRun Prime was being used.

You seem to be asking about watching the recording before its completed and added to library. That sounds like a good feature.

Have you tried viewing live TV for that channel and seeing if you can timeshift back further then when you started viewing live TV,…?

OK I think I’ve got it,…

When viewing Live TV on your device (in this case iOS) click the menu option on the upper right hand side. This should open the Queue. Select the recording you wish to view out of the queue.
