Recordings mixed-up

I’m having issues with some episodes getting mixed-up in the app.

I live in Montreal, a french speaking part of Canada and we are getting a local French version of “The Simpsons” that are called “Les Simpsons”. I created a season pass and recording it daily. On the server’s hard drive, they are stored in a folder labeled “Les Simpsons” and all is good. But I am also recording the english version of “The Simpsons” that we are also getting here. On the server’s hard drive, the english version are stored in a separated folder appropriately named “The Simpsons”. Everything’s fine so far.

But, when browsing my recordings in the app, The Simpsons and Les Simpsons are mixed together. I have two separates shows listed. The first one, I assume, should have been the French version and the second one the English version. But no. The first show contains French only episodes while the second show contains a mixture of English episodes and French ones.

I understand it could be hard and confusing to sort for an automated system.

My question is this : I there a way to manually move the episodes to the correct show? Can I try and rename some files on the hard drive? But the weird thing is that all English shows are correctly labeled as “the Simpsons” and the French one are correctly labeled as “Les Simpsons”. It’s the app that mix them up.

I could live with a un unified view of all the French and english shows if possible. Just don’t know how to make it happen.

Thanks!

Please do File>Save on http://127.0.0.1:8089/dvr/files and http://127.0.0.1:8089/dvr/groups and http://127.0.0.1:8089/dvr/rules and email to [email protected]

Are they also mixed up when you look in the DVR web UI?

yes they are also mixed up in the web UI as well.

I just sent the files to your email

Thanks for the files. I see the problem. During the beta, we made some fixes for foreign language shows. New recordings are correctly being put into the two shows, but the older ones from before the fix are all mixed up.

On disk, they’re all correct as well. Just the database is messed up for your older recordings.

I think I might be able to fix it… I’ll take a closer look and try to put something in the next DVR build.

Ok good thanks!

We’ll see when it updates! I’ll tell you if it fixed it

So, did you manage to trow a fix in the latest release?

Yes it should be fixed

Oh! Yes it is!

Great! thanks!
