Permissions got fubar’d on the drive that the dvr was installed and now it will not stay running unless it is started in a terminal window. It also will not restart automatically after an update. Not worried about preserving the previous recordings, just want it to work correctly again
Did you install the software itself on an external drive?
Easiest way to clean up is to run these commands in Terminal:
launchctl remove com.getchannels.dvr
rm -f ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.getchannels.dvr.plist
Then you can delete the channels-dvr directory via Finder and reinstall it.
I would recommend you install on your macOS boot drive, in home directory that opens up by default in a new Terminal. You can always tell the software to store the recordings themselves on an external drive.
The software is on an external drive. The home directory is on the same drive, but I am going to have to change things up so this doesn’t happen again.
Thanks for the quick response
