Cancelled recurring still recorded

[pabaxt]

Hi

Had a really odd one today . Quite by chance I found that a series I'd cancelled about 9 hours ago was being recorded, but didn't show in the desktop or web client in Scheduled (before and whilst it was actually being recorded), only in the Status display, launched from the 'System tray'. The recording started just before 17:00 BST but the next scheduled recording isn't until 21:00.

The series in question was being re-broadcast from s01e01, so when I noticed this was scheduled I deleted the recurring recording and sure enough no episodes were showing as set for recording. I should probably explain that I record on to the local HDD in the NPVR PC and then move the recordings to a server with redundant file storage, so I guess that may be why NPVR scheduled an episode it had already recorded some months ago.

Interestingly episode 2 was shown immediately after but this was not recorded.

I have a copy of the db from this morning, whilst NPVR was idle after I deleted the recurring recording (i.e. before the episode was recorded) if that is helpful.

Any idea what could have happened?

Something odd there for sure when it started probably messed up the API
