clarkss12 296 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I have been migrating to the Emby DVR, but my recordings for movies are ending before the show ends. Where is the setting to add time to the end of the recording? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuelqwe 315 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Once on the dashboard, the setting should be in the DVR section. The specific setting you are looking for is post recording padding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkss12 296 Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 That was it, thank you. The only problem I see now, is that that extended time includes both TV shows and movies. I don't have any issues with the TV series recordings, just the movies. I wish I could add time to just the movies and not the TV series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkss12 296 Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 When football season arrives this fall, I will need to be able to set time just for that sport. I always add an hour for football. That is a must have for any DVR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuelqwe 315 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) You can set padding for individual recordings as well, just not for TV Shows and Movies separately. Edited March 24, 2019 by samuelqwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuelqwe 315 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 How? From the Schedule section, click on a recording. Afterwards, you should see a "Settings" label next to the "Do not record" button. Once you click on "Settings" you should be greeted with the padding settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No settings are available under the Android client.Okay that worked from the server. Since my computer is turned off, I use my cell phone to add the extra time for the specific movie that I have scheduled to record. So that works for what I'm looking for.

samuelqwe 315 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Oh yeah, might only be shown on web interface or on the mobile apps. I personally just set it to record a little too much by default, than too little. That way I never have to think about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to have to add extra minutes to my series recordings, only my movie recordings. I have been recording some of the old westerns from the grit channel, every one of the last 4 or 5 recordings, the ending got cut off, very frustrating. Now if they will just add the settings to the Android client, that would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuelqwe 315 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 You can always set the default to add more time, and change the padding on each series instead, the same way you would for individual recordings, but from the Series tab. But yes, having these options available on your TV would be a welcome addition 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
