Yeah that release to not re-record Skipped or canceled is causing more problems than it helps .. I had to delete all skipped and canceled entries in programs in order to be able to record them even though my passes say to re-record deleted and all.

During NBA playoffs I had to cancel a few recordings that were pre-empted. I was under the Impression that they would re-record since my Pass said record all and deleted boy was I wrong.

I guess i am in the minority. I'm so glad that I can skip a recording and channels doesn't make its mission to record the 5 repeats of the same program.

So if the guide Says it is Recording a 2 hour Movie and you go to watch it while recording but it is not the movie you want (Sporting Event) ... Are you ok Tying up that tuner recording crap and then delete it ... or cancel it and never have the movie you want to re-record.

If a pass says record all even deleted it should also record canceled/skipped.

Will take a look, clearly there are some bugs here.

@tmm1
cleaned up all my skipped entries so I am all good until you look at it.

Thank You.

Thanks.
Same issue if you want to skip an airing, but still record a later one.
There should be an Unskip option

I see your point there. I just Mark as Recorded so it thinks it already recorded it.
Of course there's no way to do that from the UI, have to use a curl command.

Looking good.

Now cancelling an in-progress scheduled recording marks it as recorded instead of skipped.
:+1:

So how do you re-record again without jumping through hoops... like Curl?

Mark as not recorded will let the pass reschedule it (pause and resume pass or wait until morning guide update)
Cops_pass3_S33E08 test_202306221856

Or choose Record Again to manually record the chosen airing

So how do I set the below to not recorded .... I looked everywhere .... It is not scheduled to air in the next 14 days so not in guide, but I want it to record when it does air. My pass is set to record all even deleted?

Depends on what the /dvr/programs entry for it says. recorded or skipped
If it shows as recorded with the fileid# (you were running v2023.06.22.2210 or higher when you cancelled it) then re-record deleted will work if you trashed/emptied trash.
If it shows as skipped (you were running an earlier version than v2023.06.22.2210), we're waiting for the devs to fix that, but the curl command would work.
You can either wait for it to appear in the guide, or use the curl command to Mark as not recorded.
curl -XDELETE http://127.0.0.1:8089/dvr/programs/MV003480520000

If they ever add a Mark as not recorded option to that recording view it would be too easy.
