Failed recordings

[VCR58]

I can't seem to get recordings to work in v5 anymore. Today I scheduled an NFL game and a NASCAR race from kodi and when I looked later today they had both failed. I can watch it live so I know the tuners are working.
Any idea what may be going on? 

Thanks.

What times were these recordings supposed to happen? (so I know where I'm looking in the logs)

I see NextEndMonitor.logs in your logs. Do you have something in your PostStartup.bat to kick it off? If so, try commenting that out (or rename the script) and then try restarting. I ran into a problem with that last weekend. Sub looked at my system and had me temporarily disable it. Then scheduled recording started working again. I haven't gotten back to looking at it since I was having problems with all of the Prime tuners after that and couldn't get any recordings to work.

He has the line

2019-10-13 08:28:08.089 [DEBUG][1] Nothing to monitor

so it would exit at that point.

The main reason for disabling the monitor is the spam logged from the status checks, but that isn't much different from ntray.

Do you have multiple recording directories set up?

Yes, I was attempting to do that by modifying the config file. Maybe that was a bad idea.

It does look like it's unhappy with that some how. Can you post that setting you've created in your config.xml?

So.... There's probably an error in how you added that to the config.xml. You might want to post your config.xml (or at least that line from it).

Here is what I have...
<RecordingDirectory>G:\recordings\</RecordingDirectory>
<ExtraRecordingDirectories>G:\movies\</ExtraRecordingDirectories>
<RecordingDirectoryTranslation>d:\temp~\\someserver\someshare</RecordingDirectoryTranslation>
<LiveTVBufferDirectory>C:\Users\Public\buffer\</LiveTVBufferDirectory>

The ExtraRecordingDirectories is what I modified.
