PenkethBoy 1768 Posted March 1, 2018 Having started using LiveTv recordings - one thing i cant find and i think is missing is a notification that x recording failed because of y reason As i only have one dual tuner (at the moment) its quite easy to have more than two recordings of more than one series scheduled to happen in the same time period. Other than i assume something in the logs to note this - there appears to be nothing in Emby to show what and why a recording is missing. Also as the schedule updates as time passes the "historic" conflict is lost - so its not immediately obvious that a recording failed. So could we have a notification in say the dashboard/notifications page or similar? Also a conflict notification before the recordings would be good as well I did a quick search and did not find a similar request - although there might be 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PenkethBoy Topic Author 1768 Posted March 1, 2018 Good - Thanks Right won't hold my breath for this to arrive I have a couple more tuners on order so hopefully this problem will become much less of a problem for me at least 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dranderson402 29 Posted March 1, 2018 I'm going to through in my hat for a failed recording notification as well. I just noticed that 2 of my shows didn't record over the past 2 days. It was actually due to the TV station's transmission problem. So it wasn't because of a conflict or unavailable tuner, rather because the TV station was offline. In my old Mythtv setup I would actually see a 0 byte recording so I knew at a glance there was a problem. So while Mythtv didn't actually notify me of a failed recording, it would be nice to have been notified that the recording didn't work for whatever reason. In this case maybe a weak signal or tuner unavailable notification. That at least would have triggered me to have a look at things. So anything you guys can do or plan for notifications would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It also showed them in the recorded shows list as failed. Emby seems to have nothing that tells you you lost something, and does not reschedule. So, add my vote to failed recording notification.

Sammy 475 Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) I know you guys have made vast improvements and strides in the Live TV section of Emby Server. This is much appreciated! I am just wondering how things are coming along with recording management? TIA Edited November 28, 2018 by Sammy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sammy 475 Posted November 20, 2019 So it's been nearly a year and I'm wondering how this is coming along. It seems that it could be something easily added to the playback reporting plug-in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebr 10766 Posted November 20, 2019 It seems that it could be something easily added to the playback reporting plug-in. That plug-in is a 3rd party offering. You could request that in the Plugins forum. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
