Recording Service Recording Automatically

[DParsons]

I've come across a problem with the recording service where it will turn on and start recording random programs. This happens periodically and consistently since I've been using NextPVR around five months now. It fills up the temp recording folder on my c: drive with random recorded clips that I'm only aware of when I check how much space is on my c: drive and notice it's nearly full. During these times I can't access my content remotely (with Emby) as it gives the message all tuners are busy. However I've found that scheduled recordings will still record. Has anyone ever experienced this and is there anything I should do to stop this?

I'm sure there will be a good reason why these files exist. If you post the logs covering the time of one of these recordings, I'm happy to take a look.

Do you use NPVR to watch live TV? If so does the appearance of these files coincide with live TV sessions?

Thanks sub I'll look for the logs, actually can you tell me where they are located and I'll send them.

Hello Alex, yes I watch some live TV but mostly I just record shows and watch them. This might coincide with live TV but it's so random that I've not been able to identify anything specific, like it happens only after watching live TV. I also sometimes watch live TV remotely with Emby but again it does not seem to specifically happen only after watching remote live TV either. It does appear to be somewhat random.

The settings screen has a button for zipping your logs. They're in c:\users\public\npvr\logs.

I'll have them sent this evening because I'm fairly certain it just happened again. I can no longer access live TV through Emby and that is typically the first sign that I get when it is happening again. I remotely watch TV with Emby in two ways 1. My android. Which does not seem to have ever caused this and just a little while ago I accessed live TV through a PC and ever since then I have not been able to use the remote live TV option. Guaranteed when I get home this evening the temp folder will be filling up with recording snippets and the nextpvr tray button will be red/on.

How/where do I post the log files?

zip and attach them (when using the 'Go Advanced' button to reply)
