Issues continue - new PC, fresh configs...

5 nights, zero failed recordings.

Just had a failure.  Started recording on time, and recording ran the entire length it was set for.  But, the program is about 7 seconds long.  I can watch the channel fine live through NextPVR, no pixelation, nothing.

From those logs it is not clear why it is stopping. Maybe try again and if it fails again, I'd have to suspect an issue in the file.

It is over... I tried to watch it when it was in process, and it was no different.

Can't believe it is a reception issue when I can watch it live in NextPVR or HD software.

Quite frustrating. No indication it isn't successfully recording.

I can't comment without seeing the sample. Bad timelines can look perfect and NextPVR.exe uses the timing file so doesn't always need a good timeline. Which of course could explain sync issues.

I think I maybe misunderstood your frustration and thought you were concerned about yauiclient. If you haven't deleted the file could you zip and send M:\NextPVR\College Football\College Football_20251115_12001530.timing we can tell when it stops.

Certainly the filesize is only a few minutes so it isn't the timeline at all.

The signal for the game was much lower than the signal for This Old House at the same time, this is out of NextPVR's control

and even notably lower than the signal overnight for the ATSC guide. (you probably should remap a lot of channels to SD I think,

Sometimes stuff happens. The antenna for channel 2.1 (physical 7) is VHF so you need to make sure you have a reasonable VHF antenna, many that are sold as "HD" were tuned to UHF.
