XRecord and duplicates

[spyder40]

I have a scheduled recording set up for the 3 Stooges and not to record duplicates. From the log it looks like it's scheduling them but they never get scheduled. Any ideas?

Are you scheduling with cdk or internal. Do they have descriptions? subtitles?

Jorm,

I'm using the scheduler built in to XRecord. The weird thing is it all of a sudden worked yesterday and I had a bunch scheduled in pending. I just checked on them now and they're gone again. They do have subtitles/descriptions.

Should I be running zapimport before or after priorityrecording?

priorityrecording > PriorityRecording.log
zapimport ***** ******* >zapimport.log

The priorityrecording.log shows it scheduling quite a few episodes.

Jorm,

Here's a snip from the gbpvrrecordingservice log and the priorityrecording log.

I tried running them manually and the recordings show up after priorityrecording and disappear after zapimport.

Make sure that if you are using CDK Scheduler that you don't also have the rectracker.exe with the -purge option. If you do, CDK will schedule it's recordings, and then rectracker will -purge ones that it thinks are duplicates. It is best to let CDK Scheduler handle the scheduling and the duplicates itself.

The only place rectracker is running is in postprocessing to put the show in the rectracker db. The weird part is shows get scheduled through priorityrecording and do show up briefly in XRecord then they disappear. I have checked the db's and there are shows which are not duplicates and should be scheduled.

What version of GBPVR are you running, and if you upgraded did it just start happening? I'll take a look at the gbpvr logs that you posted to see if I can see anything there as well.

I have upgraded but it's been doing it for a while. After further testing it looks like they're getting deleted after going into the config and then clicking ok. After the services restarted I went into XRecord and watched the number of scheduled recordings decrease each time I hit the pending button until they were gone. The only place these are scheduled is under the Scheduler button in XRecord
