Description

Hello, first thanks for your wonderful project and job: i think tvh is the best live tv server among all present softwares.

Now the problem: it's the first time that a thing like this happens because i record a lot of tv channels but i did not have any problem until yesterday. (so a rare condition)
What i've done:
1 On EPG page with browser i've select an event and scheduled a recording from event info. (the recording was scheduled on a x channel, but for convenience after creating it, i've change the recording channel to y, because the event was in simulcast and i don't have epg in that y channel)
2 i've a rule that starts the recording 10 minutes before and ends 10 minutes after the beginning of the event. As you see in log tvh start to record the channel at 22:50.
3 during the recording i've also watch for a few minutes the channel with kodi. (due to some problem to my client i start and restart the subscription a lot of time so i've stressed tvh a lot. Also i've start playing the recording even if it wasn't finished)
4 Today i've checked the recording and i've noticed that the file was truncated.

You can see in tvh log that it (seems) to complete the recording but actually the file is only 55:09 minutes log (scheduled 125min) so if the recording started at 22:50 tvh stops to write near 23:45.
I've included also stats of that file to show that effectively the "last edit time" is 23:45.
And ffmpeg log to show the file's duration.
I will try to reproduce this bug.
Thank as always

It seems to be similar with #4781 . Do you have DvbSky S952 ?

Hello @Jaroslav and thanks for you answer! Unfortunately yes DVBSky s952v3... So it's a hardware issue. I was planning to change it: now I have the right reason! Thanks as always and have a nice day!

Mmm maybe there is also something else :( at last maybe it's my config?
just retested with TBS this time even worst no data at all. (i've manually turn the recording off) And these are "the first times" that i add a recording throught the epg page, i always set manually a timer.

I have similar problem with DiBcom 3000MC/P (dvb-t)
Streaming 24/7 to external HLS generator no problems,
but internal in tvh recordings are unreal by size.
2h ~260Mb without transcoding

1 On EPG page with browser i've select an event and scheduled a recording from event info. (the recording was scheduled on a x channel, but for convenience after creating it, i've change the recording channel to y, because the event was in simulcast and i don't have epg in that y channel)

You can set "Reuse EPG from:" to channel x in the config for channel y.

And these are "the first times" that i add a recording throught the epg page, i always set manually a timer.

Do you have "Use EPG running state:" set for the channel and/or the recording profile?

Not sure what will happen with EPG running state if recording is switched to a channel with not EPG/EIt info???

Good evening, i've upgrade to 4.3-790 but for now it doesn't show up (i've started near 100 recordings): maybe it was a bug present in 4.3-513, or maybe because it is not simple to reproduce as described.
I will leave trace dvr and debug on these days so if it appears again i'll update this issue.
Thanks again @Jaroslav

Yes thank you, i'm using it for other channels but for this as it is "experimental" and transmits rarely i manually set the recording :)

Do you have "Use EPG running state:" set for the channel and/or the recording profile?

No i don't but anyway it doesn't have EIT so this shouldn't be the problem :)
Thanks

"shouldn't", but possibly is. I have seen where even though "Use EPG running state:" is not set, it still may be used.
These two issues may be related...
