Thanks again, Martin.

The file wasn't locked by being played back. It just occurred to me that it's possible my Plex server might be locking files as it triggers a metadata update when it sees an updated file - but why would it lock a file when it's only reading it?

I've tried re-running iGL as you suggested but with the same result, as far as I can see. I've updated the logs and database with more files for you to take a look at - same URL.

PS: The rename to E66 is a pain, TBH, as it means I have to manually rename files to stop Plex from assuming there are 66 episodes...

My test is to check r/w so even if an other app has opened it only to read I would get the same error. I actually wanted to NextPVR logs to confirm the original name problem. Have you rebooted the server in the last few days? Maybe something else is locking it?

Yes, the server was rebooted a couple of days ago for a software update, so there should be no unexpected process locking it. I've now disabled the Plex server's instant update and we'll see if it makes a difference. I've uploaded the NPVR logs now too (same URL), hope it helps.

Cheers

Yes the logs help, the name is from NextPVR

Preferred filename is 'The Game.S01E06.S1E6/6'
"\\FREENAS\media\movies\TV Recordings\The Game\The Game.S01E06.S1E66.ts"

If Plex doesn't like it perhaps turn off sub's new naming logic for TV recordings.

Also based on your log it hasn't been restarted since the 2nd.

Hmm, not sure where that reboot info is from exactly but it was definitely rebooted at 09:47 yesterday. Recording the F1 qualifying right now so I'm not going to mess with the config until later...

I am just going by the logs

[...startup]

I do see a fews sleeps but not a full restart ie

2015-06-05 09:56:31.765 [DEBUG][31] Resuming...
2015-06-05 09:56:31.850 [DEBUG][9] Recording service noted the system was resuming...

I am about 2 hours from Montreal and we are having the same beautiful cool weather they have for race weekend. Too nice to watch qualifying rounds or sit too long at a computer!

Ofc! :facepalm: I was thinking of the server, not the PVR - which as you say, hasn't been rebooted for a few days. PS: Enjoy the race tomorrow...

I've left this issue (and thread) alone hoping I could fix it - but I'm still getting access denied reports from iGL, even though nPVR happily records to the same directory on the NAS. I've opened up access to all comers (777 in Unix speak) and with no security in Windows (CIFS) but still get these errors. Is there anything you can see that might be the problem? Thanks.

Log and database are http://gbpvr.noone.mailforce.net/

Could you try with theis version so we compare apples and apples http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...post491123

the command line is --oid 2086 --rename --season

Ah, this is looking hopeful - it has worked using the bulk rename script. I've set a programme to record in about 20 minutes, see if that works; I tried recording a programme then cancelling it after five minutes but, for some reason, cancelling a recording does not prompt NVPR to run postprocessing.bat so iGL doesn't run.
