hoopsdavis 4 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) Hi, I understand Emby Premiere is a paid server that provides extras. DVR is included with Emby Premiere. For the past 4 or 5 months, TV show episode recordings doesn't seem to work as they should. I'm unable to set shows as Record only New episodes doens't work. When you're attempting to record shows that has been airing for years and reruns are running you tend to get many episodes that you're already seen. When paying for anything service it should work fully and when there are issues they should be addressed. With the trailers quality reduction with no evidence of being address and now the dvr episode issues. Can you guys please address the issues and provide information as to when we can expect the service we're paying for the be working as it should. I understand the service you guys provide is mostly free to the community and we appreciate it but, the paid service should increase in serve quality and supprt, not decrease. Please address the issues and provide an ETA. The issue when setting a show to "New Episodes Only", the recordings are disabled. Is there anything I can provide to help with addressing the issue?

After doing more analysis, I believe the issue has to do with my guide data not specifying which episodes are new. Maybe I need to go another route for my guide data. Has anyone else experienced this TV show recording issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only want to see the new episodes. Setting it to record al episodes except the new is giving only what I've already seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it would require manually cancelling the recordings for the unwanted ones, at least until you find a better guide data source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you're saying. Yes, that's what I'm currently doing. (I thought you were requesting I record everything but new episodes. What does others use to get guide info?

Yes that's what I use and I believe that's the issue. Lacking the details of what's new, what's a premier and what are reruns. If there's anyone using epg.best share your guide configuration how you make it work Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d00zah 128 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 That's where that info would come from. If it's not included in the guide source, Emby doesn't know to display it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d00zah 128 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I've chosen an Emby guide source & spent a long time manually mapping channels to a poorly supported stream source. Tedious, but it sure looks purdy when it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue is I'm using IPTV and have US, Canada and UK channels. So I'll use my xml file for channels outside the use and just have to use multiple emby guides with different zip codes to cover East coast and West coast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d00zah 128 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Just what I did in a similar situation. It's worth the time IMO, depending on how many channels one needs to map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a total of 102 channels. I'm mostly concerned with my Local Broadcast channels (ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, CW) These are the channels I record shows from, but I have these channels in multiple regions. Wash DC, Atlanta and San Diego. So it shouldn't be too much of a hassle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
