Jellyfin LiveTV not detecting recorded files - pes502 - 2025-04-03

Hello,
I am currently testing Jellyfin Live TV. Everything is working fine, and I also tried recording a show. It has been recorded successfully, but Jellyfin doesn’t see any files in the Recordings section.
I can see the newly created structure on the disk:

FOLDER
file.ts
file.nfo
poster.jpg

but not in Jellyfin itself. I am using Jellyfin 10.10.6.

I didnt use any post proccessing script or anything like that.

Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening? Thank you

If you don't have real time monitoring enabled for the recordings library you would have to wait for the next library scan to run. The default is every 12 hours.

If the disk Jellyfin is recording to is directly attached to your server, instead of being a network share, real time monitoring is supported and would add the recording immediately after it finishes.

If it is a network share, your best option would be to increase the frequency that Jellyfin does a full library scan.
