mellomade 140 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Currently when using any padding in EmbyTV - shows that are scheduled back-to-back on the same channel will obey the padding for the first recording and ignore the start padding for second recording. This is problematic because you tend to clip the first few minutes of a show in the second recording if there are no additional tuners free at the time the recording is stated. For example: Show #1 scheduled to record from 8:00pm-8:30pm Show #2 scheduled to record from 8:30pm-9:00pm 5 minutes of padding required on either side of all recordings. Show #1 starts recording at 7:55pm - when 8:25pm is reached EmbyTV triggers the recording of Show #2. The .TS file for Show #1 would stay open and continues to be recorded to until 8:35pm. The .TS for Show #2 would open at 8:25pm and data is simultaneously dumped from the tuner tuned to Show #1 into the .TS for Show #2. This simultaneous recording into the 2 separate .TS files continues until 8:35pm when Show #1 stops recording and Show #2 continues. Ideally EmbyTV would check prior to recording if there are any recordings scheduled to use the same channel back-to-back - and if so detect the required overlap and open both .TS files to receive data. Hope that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
