Emby has no currenct connections, but is keeping a tunner used.

Hi, 

I have had this issue a handful of times now and am looking for help. I am using Dispatcharr as a "middle man" to get feeds into Emby. I am using HDHR Primes as my tuners. I have noticed that last few days that I have streams that have been active for over 12 hours according to Dispatcharr. This current one was from our ABC channel starting on 12/15, and the prior ones that I took a screenshot of was from 12/12 (not 12 hours in this case, but still the same problem). As soon as I restart my Emby server, my HDHR tuner gets freed up of the streams and Dispatcharr then displays not active streams. At no point do I see any active connection in the Emby server dashboard.

I have attached logs, but unsure if those are the correct ones.

I noticed it today around 7:30ish AM PST. I am unsure of when Emby reports the original stream ending.

OK then is it from your recordings? Because you have recording activity all throughout the log file.

There was no active recordings happening. There could have been recordings that happened prior on those channels. But for example ABC connection was for 14 hours and that 100% wasn't a recording.

OK please let us know if you see it again. Thanks.
