LiveTV 404 recording errors

[pdclark 8]

I’ve reported previously numerous recording errors and when researched in the logs they show 404 errors. Always assumed it’s the IPTV provider.

So, as a test I added two additional IPTV providers and unfortunately I still have recording failures - sometimes no recording, and sometimes failing at 5 - 20 minutes after start. Leads me to believe it’s Emby related and not IPTV. Posted below is from one of the provider’s forums today. FWIW

 

 

As a side note to the reports of the 404 errors. I was still having a few here and there even after making adjustments after the switchover. A new FFMPEG version was released today that seems to have stopped the few 404's or the remote has ended the session errors that I was still receiving.

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred:

Okay, so mabye related to my other thread
https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/136945-live-tv-freezes-with-black-screen-after-20-minutes/

But I was also getting 404 errors and issues recording.
Although if I'm watching the Live Tv stream on chrome browser and do a record funny enough i dont get any recording errors or 404's.
SO i'm not quite sure where the problem stems from.

Hi @Luke,

The logs simply report 404 errors (and sometimes 500 or 502, obviously server related).

What would be very helpful though is to have the completed recording file names (or additional tag) include the channel name. I am currently using 3 providers and monitoring the recordings.  Unfortunately when the 3 have varied recording times, when reviewing the recordings, it’s impossible to determine which provider has the issue (without exploring the logs) because all 3 recordings have the same title.

Thanks

Hi, yes that’s not a bad idea. Thanks.
