Interrupted Recordings

Channels DVR Server
#1

I’ve recently had a large amount of recordings being flagged as interrupted. It doesn’t seem to matter if it was recorded on a standard channel or TVE. I also have watched some of these recorded shows/movies and they were not interrupted, they played just fine with no interruptions.

I have my DVR settings set to 1 minute early and 1 minute late. I have a HDHR Prime with 3 tuners - cable card. The only thing I can think of is that if I am utilizing all tuners, it’s not honoring the 1 minute early and 1 minute late recording presets. I’ve not checked to confirm this is indeed the issue but wandered if anyone else is experiencing this issue.

Pull the messages from the Log tab that match one of these recordings and you can see what's going on.

If tuners were running out you would see the "Delayed" error. "Interrupted" means there's some issue that causes the DVR to get disconnected from your HDHR in the middle of the recording.

Here is the error for “The Little Mermaid Live”.

2019/11/05 22:01:08 [DVR] Error running job 1573001940-ch1004 The Wonderful World of Disney Presents The Little Mermaid Live!: CreateFile D:\TV: The system cannot find the path specified.

I’m also seeing multiple errors that are saying the device is not ready - but the recording is fine when watching it.

It’s odd because they all recorded just fine, the entire recording is perfect.

I’m also seeing this from time to time, sometimes TV-E, other time OTA. Here is a log for the most recent interrupted recording; I actually don’t know what it looks like, although my wife has not complained as of yet. I can copy/paste additional log files as necessary... please let me know:

Please paste the other errors.

It sounds like your D:\ drive is failing.

#6

The recording ended 8s before it was supposed to. It restarted at that point so not much was lost.

#7

Obviously looking at the time stamps you are right... any thoughts as to why it would do that? I add a 5min buffer to all my recordings as I found sometimes there was a lag in my TV-E start/stop times (at least when I first started using TV-E so I added the buffer to ensure the entire recording was complete either via OTA or TV-E.

#8

The 8s thing is weird. Could be some sort of bug. Do you have other examples of interrupted recordings in the logs? Are they all just a few seconds off?

Here’s the log from today. Had a couple movies scheduled to record and they show failures but look fine when viewing.

"ERROR_NOT_READY normally indicates a serious hardware failure."

Is this a mapped drive, or a physical USB drive?

Looks like its just intermittently throwing errors. Sometimes the first attempt fails, then the DVR tries to record again 30s later and it works.

In other cases, it keeps failing. Like for "Revenge of the Nerds (1984)" it doesn't look like it ever started recording cuz of the errors.

#11

It’s an external drive connected with an esata to usb cable adapter to my pc.

#12

I never have any issues accessing the drive and I ran a few programs to check it, no errors on any of them.

I’ll hook up another drive this weekend and try recording to it, see if I get the same errors.

#13

Here is one that just happened... it’s also interrupted by 8 sec. obviously on this one I only have a 1 minute buffer added onto the end of the show.

Is time sync (NTP) enabled on your NAS? Could be a time keeping issue.

#15

It is... should it not be?

#16

It should be enabled, yes.

Can you paste the OS/CPU section of the settings page.

I also am getting this recording interrupted issue but the recordings are fine. It’s random when it happens as far as I can tell. I’ve had 3 or 4 recording over the past week or two that this has happened to but again I watch them and nothing seems wrong with the recordings

Please post the logs from the time of the recording

#20

So I go to recordings, select the one that says interrupted, select the gear icon and select and choose view recording log and the only thing in the log is:

loc=188 pkt=2 pid=48 what="pat_and_pmt" offset=0 length=376 contiguous=true changed=true packets=2

Even looking at ones that aren't marked as interrupted the log is just 1 line like the above
