Emby re-records existing episodes already in library


Recommended Posts

Posted

dunno if it's caused by a change in epg on how the episodes are named. But, Emby records episodes that are already in an existing library (2nd green check)

Exemple:
in my existing library
 TVserie S10E08.mkv
in epg:
TVserie S10E08 Special Guest

So, Emby does not match anymore the complete name of the episodes, so it schedules the recording of S10E08

I noticed that a few days or weeks ago

Any solutions come to mind?

Emby was skipping episodes already in my library before. Something changed recently causing to mismatch the episodes already in my library

I think I figured out the issue: Emby is getting confused if you try to record the same TV serie from 2 different channels

Interesting.

Was this the same channel from two different sources or two different channels in the same source tuner?
If two different sources tuners, do they use the same EPG for mapping to the same channel?
Was the series set to record two different times?
If so by same person or 2 different people?
Do you know if either job had manual selection of the channel to use?  If you still have the recording jobs, you can edit/look. If you deleted one, it still might be helpful to look at the remain job if it still exists.

Thanks,
Carlo
