Video previews not working for all recordings?

Get ready for the "let's look at an example".

I'm thinking some details might be helpful.

Hi, try refreshing the metadata on one of the impacted titles and see if that helps. Thanks.

That fixes it. Not sure why this is happening here and there. Maybe failed recordings ?

We are looking into why it happens with some recordings, but not others. Thanks.

I’m also having recording failures.

I have another product setup side by side with the same recordings and that product is not failing. Same source and destination for recording… this is looking like a Emby problem?

I’ll have to get a computer to get the logs.

Basically it showed recording and while I was navigating Emby menus the recording active stopped so I checked the recording and there was only 15 mins.

I keep seeing this behaviour.

Let's hold off on this for a bit. This may of been a result of a cron job I had setup to bounce the emby service. Forgot I put this in place due to the transcoding directory maxing out my HD space. Another issues from a previous release of Emby? Never did find out why that was happening..

That should be much less likely to happen now with newer versions.
