Consistent Recording Failures for One Show

[DarWun 349]

I'm not sure what the issue is here. One scheduled show recording fails consistently every week. I don't know why. Log attached.

Sorry for not being more specific @Luke. I thought you would be able to tell which recording started and then failed based on the errors that Emby wrote to the log. My bad.

From the log the recording of the April 9 episode of The Amazing Race started as scheduled at 9:29pm:

2025-04-09 21:29:00.003 Info LiveTV: Recording timer fired for df5479698117b1bf35c4266f732f60bf The Amazing Race.

The recording continued for about ten minutes minutes. At that point there is the first of several errors in the log identifying:

2025-04-09 21:38:53.037 Error SharedHttpPipelineSource: Give up retries copying live stream http://host2:5004/x_path1_x/x_path3_x No more retries allowed.

Emby then stopped the recording prematurely at 9:41pm:

2025-04-09 21:40:53.078 Info LiveTV: Recording completed to: /volume1/MediaStorage/Users/DarWunder/Videos/Recordings/The Amazing Race (2001)/Season 37/The Amazing Race S37E06 It Smells Like the Desert.ts

The recording should have continued until 11:02pm.

A total of three shows were recorded between 7:30pm and 11:00pm. Two of them completed as scheduled. Only The Amazing Race failed.

Emby has failed to record an entire episode of the The Amazing Race consistently since Season 37 started airing five weeks ago. I don't know why.

There are two HDHomeRun devices with a total of six tuners available for Emby to use. So Emby should have no problem finding a free tuner.

I tried to reproduce this tonight by recording three shows in sequence on the same channels I have issues with for The Amazing Race. Recordings completed fine...no ideas now.

This was after updating to Beta .45 from .44. So maybe the issue was resolved by the "Fix SMB protocol regression in previous build" fix. I guess I'll find out next Wednesday when the next episode of the Amazing Race is scheduled to record.

Just reporting back that the issue did not occur last night. I don't know what the problem was for the previous six weeks. But I now have at least one week where recording completed as scheduled. I'll report back for subsequent weeks if that changes.
