Recording Failures

[jcole998]

Been using V5 for the past several days for my normal recording schedule. When I brought up the web app this morning, the red "Failed" items shown are puzzling. The item marked "CMTT:TT" shows as failed but the recording completed normally and is in the correct folder.

I am having a problem going through the V5 logs and hope someone can find out why three items are marked "FAILED:"
- [CMT East] 5/21/2020 7:00:00 AM - 9:00:00 AM
- [MTV Live HD] 5/20/2020 6:00:00 AM - 8:00:00 AM
- [Hallmark Movies] 5/16/2020 9:00:00 AM - 11:00:00 AM

Logs attached.

Thank you.

I am going to make a guess that NextPVR doesn't like the reserved character : in the name.

"name": "MTVLive:Wed",
"name": "CMT: TT",
"name": "MTV Hits: Sun",

What is your EPG source?

BTW to fix this you probably will want those xml files we talked about yesterday

I'm using SchedulesDirect. But these shows are manual recordings.

[mvallevand]

Are you adding the semi colon to the name?

Martin

[jcole998]

Yes.

[mvallevand]

Until sub gets to it

[jcole998]

Understood.

Um... I just noticed that one of scheduled programs is "Penny Dreadful: City of Angels"(note colon) and that IS scheduled from SD.

Unless this is new, I think it has to do with manual recordings, otherwise we'd have lot of NCIS failures.

Ah! Copy that. In the meantime, I removed the colons from those entries in the database.
