I finally bought the lifetime plex subscription so I can take advantage of the DVR feature. I setup the Xbox One TV Digital TV Card on my Windows 10 computer. It found 11 channels. I went and setup some shows to record and when I went in the next day it showed 10 shows recorded in the guide and all said 100% complete but no shows showed up in my TV Shows section. I found the folder called “grab” and found temp folders in there but all where empty. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am using a 2.4GHz 8 Core CPU with 16GB DDR3 Memory. Wouldn’t think the computer is to slow to do the recordings. Please any suggestions to get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
Look at your Plex Media Server log files after the recording finished to see if there were any messages.
The 1.7.x versions of PMS appears to have broken DVR functionality, downgrading back to 1.6.1 resolves the problem but it does not include Live TV.
See this thread for more information:
Not sure how I mark an issue resolved by the latest release 1.8.0.4109 appears to have fixed all issues I was seeing! All my recordings yesterday recorded with no known issues, I have not watched them fully yet, but all appears to be there.
Might want to give it a week before doing so. Sometimes reoccurrence can just take a few days. I made it 8 days on the last release before my issues cropped back up.
@lorddoskias you was right. I went back into my recordings tonight and found that all of them have transcode errors again. It appeared that a few worked right after the new update but now all of them are giving transcode errors and I can’t figure out why.
