When I archive a group instead of an individual recording, sometimes one or more of the recordings go missing.
From the client (NLite in this example) in the Ready Recordings list, I filter on Local recordings (my filter), then choose a group/folder and select Archive from the menu, then the target folder on my NAS. In this example "Late Night With Seth Meyers" is the group.
The files all show up in the target folder:
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E74.Cillian.Murphy;.Maggie.Gyllenhaal.ts"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E74.Cillian.Murphy;.Maggie.Gyllenhaal.edl"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E75.Nicolle.Wallace;.Rebecca.Ferguson;.Joe.Santagato;.Frank.Alvarez.ts"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E75.Nicolle.Wallace;.Rebecca.Ferguson;.Joe.Santagato;.Frank.Alvarez.edl"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E76.Kurt.Russell;.Marc.Jacobs;.Sofia.Coppola.ts"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E76.Kurt.Russell;.Marc.Jacobs;.Sofia.Coppola.edl"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E77.Kristin.Chenoweth;.Tom.Blyth.ts"
"P:\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E77.Kristin.Chenoweth;.Tom.Blyth.edl"
But only 2 files now show up for the group in the NPVR client and only those 2 are in the database. (I'm using a recording-backup.xml to verify)
<filename>\\NAS0324\Public\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E74.Cillian.Murphy;.Maggie.Gyllenhaal.ts</filename><filename>\\NAS0324\Public\videos\tv\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E75.Nicolle.Wallace;.Rebecca.Ferguson;.Joe.Santagato;.Frank.Alvarez.ts</filename>
In a nutshell, the file is being moved, but the entry in the database is being deleted rather than updated.
D:\nextpvr\Late Night With Seth Meyers\Season 13\Late.Night.With.Seth.Meyers.S13E76.Kurt.Russell;.Marc.Jacobs;.Sofia.Coppola.ts
I do have AutoRemoveMissingRecordings set to true, so maybe LoadList is causing the database entry to be removed before it has been updated?
<AutoRemoveMissingRecordings>true</AutoRemoveMissingRecordings>
