Live TV/DVR Recordings Not Working/Content folder empty - Adam Wishne - 2025-01-01
Currently when I set a recording the folder is created and an NFO file created but there is no content in the folder after the recording. Any thoughts on if I am missing something basic?
RE: Live TV/DVR Recordings Not Working/Content folder empty - TheDreadPirate - 2025-01-01
Is it being moved to the series or movies folder you set? Are you using a post processing script that would move it?

Neither - not being moved to Shows folder. Items in that folder are only created via Sonarr. No post processing script, only have "{path}"
The folder gets created but no playable media shows up.
Here are some log entries from this morning when I tested it on some random PBS show

And you don't have any other apps managing your media?
Do you have a cap on how many episodes of a series are kept?
