Issues with recording - Raestlen - 2023-07-13

Hey All, 

I have been trying to get LiveTV to record, but for some reason, the only thing being created is .nfo files. For reference, I am using an m3u link to get LiveTV, which works fine. Playback is good, and I can see the .ts files being created and removed while watching LiveTV.  However, when I press the record button, only .nfo files are created and no .ts files are created in the transcodes folder.  Both folders are owned by Jellyfin, and chmod is 777 for testing.

Here are some logs;

[2023-07-13 19:10:51.729 +00:00] [INF] Beginning recording. Will record for "19.137835885" minutes.

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/mnt/media/transcodes/b7b03186079a4328a683174e784e78a5.ts'.


Any idea what is going on here? If more logs are needed, I am happy to provide them.

Is /mnt/media/transcodes a separate partition or ram disk? Are any other partitions filling up?


RE: Issues with recording - Raestlen - 2023-07-13

No, it is in the same parent folder, on the same disk as the recording destination. Oddly enough I can see transcodes being made and removed while streaming livetv.

For reference, this is Ubuntu 23 on a repurposed datto.

I'm running into this same issue on both a Windows server and a MacOs server. Has anyone found a fix for this?
