If i programm a record over tvheadend webif the DVR Log Retention Time is 0

"retention": 0,

But in DVR settings it is set 9000
so the record will clean from list if he is finished

if i programm with kodi, the retention time will set from kodi

Any solution ?
Now i use Tvheadend 4.0.9-6~g668d3e7~xenial but no change. Can only programm over kodi

Try setting it to something more sane, like 365 (in dvr config)?

Is it a permission problem ?
What is the different between kodi programming and tvh webif programming ?

i hope that anyone can help me to fix this problem

Have you tried chowning the whole of the dvr config dir? Do a backup first. If that fails try a clean config.

no change, thats crazy

even after a clean config (from scratch)?

how do i clean this config ?

if i add a new recording profile i have the same result.

Retention 0 for the DVR entry means 'use value from DVR config'. You're trying to resolve an issue where it isn't. Kodi probably forces to set individual value to the created DVR entry. You may modify this settings through the webui, too.

yes but i set the retention to 365 day.
in config file it is set to 365

Just to be sure the value in the following screenshot is set too?

I'm running 4.1.2126 and I've just a added timer (via kodi) for a program and set the "lifetime" (retention in the webui) to "3 Years" and the value is correct for both the ui and kodi.

I'll install 4.0.x on another machine when I get the chance and see it I can reproduce this..

That is the DVR log retention time, the days tvheadend should keep info about the recording not how long it is to keep the file. Looks like 4.0.x doesn't have it for DVR profiles. As for why the webui isn't honouring the file retention value I have no clue!

yes the file will not delete. it will only delete in the list.

i update to version 4.1-2370~g0c506b4~xenial

same problem. If i record from webif retention is 0 in the log file.
But now i can set in the upcoming recording DVR log retention to on file removal

now the rentention is set correct
