Tuesday's recordings didn't record

[justinrh 259]

I'd like to know why the (2) TV shows (Cheers) at 10 and 10:30pm CST didn't record.  Any clues in the log?

Maybe this?

[justinrh 259]

Well, lacking space is not it.  I have 9GB free and <1GB would have been needed.  Three other shows were recorded on Wed.

Maybe Windows had an issue?  Is the shown error what is normally seen when space is not available?

Recent Windows update stopped NextPVR working. If you're not using Nextpvr then...

[justinrh 259]

Not using NextPVR here, and no WU for a couple of weeks.

I don't see any action around these times. Could the episodes already be in your libraries somewhere else?

[justinrh 259]

Nope, those two episodes are missing.  I appreciate you looking into it, @TMCsw.

Hi, what makes you think they were supposed to record ?

[emveepee 132]

I think the confusion is the OP sent the actual log dated before the recording with screenshots of others.  We'd want the one dated around 11pm after the recording.

And the other question is do we even know that they were scheduled to record at that time?

These seem to be 10:00pm and 10:30pm on the 15th which he was asking about

2754 minutes is 45 hours away, so we would need the logs from the next two days to see what happened.

[justinrh 259]

Yeah, a little late for that ...

The fact that we do not have a log entry for timer trigger created to fire in 179 minutes and 209 minutes with these log entries indicates either:

* The guide schedule did not have these episodes for the 14th, or
* The series recordings settings were for New Episodes Only and the guide did not have that indicator set for the 2 airings, or
* The episodes as identified in the guide / schedule metadata, match ones already in the recording library (or any library if the series option to check all libraries was selected)

The only 22:00 and 22:30 recordings that Emby Server established need to be recorded were the following:
