We had an Internet/Cable TV outage recently due to some bad weather. When I attempted to access the Channels DVR web gui on the win 10 server computer, there were long delays in getting the pages to load. Once loaded, I went to the guide and scheduled a couple programs to record via antenna while the Internet was out, and neither of them recorded, or had any record of them being set to record.
When I finally accessed the Web gui DVR>manage and it listed all the programs, show images were missing which does make some sense, however on those shows that were missing their image, I couldn't click on the program to actually play it. I really need to be able to watch the news to see what was happening.
I realize that the server needs an internet connection for guide data and remote hosting, but is this the expected activity when Internet is unavailable? Have you guys run scenarios of how the software reacts when the Internet cable is pulled? The server should be able to handle local OTA recordings without issue even without Internet service for a day or two.
