Bug #2477
Unable to rename recordings over HTSP
0%
Description
XBMC has a "Rename recording" feature which currently does not work. There's a bug in XBMC that makes it look like nothing happened when you renamed something, but the command is actually sent to the backend. However, tvheadend discards any updates to existing recordings (e.g. not timers). I believe this is due to https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend/blob/master/src/dvr/dvr_db.c#L736. I suggest some properties such as title can be updated regardless of recording state (it makes no sense to change the start/stop time of a recording that is already completed).

But what's the goal ? Rename only the title or eventually recreate filename (using DVB config rules) and rename also file on the storage, too? I would probably keep title/filename in sync..

For me simply changing the title would be enough. I rarely deal with the actual files anyway, I just play them through XBMC and manage them through the web interface.
