Recording service restarted during recording...

Recording service restarted during recording

Has been happening erratically for the past few weeks.
Most programs are recorded without interruption but - and this might be a "Red Herring" - the glitch seems occur most often between 17:00 and 18:00 weekdays.
Please could I have some thoughts

Thank you

I see the error but I can't explain it.  The logs show a crash on playback of an in progress value and (you have two files being recorded at the time.  If you use Kodi for playback you don't need thumbnails and timing files so search the forum and turn that off.  You could be taxing your RPi.

You are also using an old unsupported version of the server so upgrade to 7.0.5 when it comes out.
