Is there a limit to recording length? My TVServer recordings all cut off at 3 hours but I can't find a setting anywhere to change it.

Can it be done?

    Is there a limit to recording length?
    If you use "Manual Booking" (left side menu on the "Recording Schedule" panel), you can schedule a recording duration of up to 24 hours. However...

    That is using the "conventional" TV sources, i.e. a DVB-T tuner, a DVB-S tuner, or an analogue tuner. You stated in your other thread that you are using an IPTV source. Perhaps there is a limit for that? I don't know.

    The only suggestion that I can make is that you record from DVB-T or DVB-S sources.

    Is there a time limit for recordings. I've been trying to record over IPTV but the recordings seem to cut off after 3 hours exactly.

Disabling the option "Single seat setup: force RTSP usage" under "TV/Radio", "Advanced Options" resolved the issue. After I disabled this option, I was able to delete the recordings the first time...

    I have also had this problem in the past. There are two components to this problem: Your internet router is pinging the HTPC at regular intervals in order to see if the HTPC is still present on the network. The network adapter in the HTPC has "Wake on Lan" enabled. So at the end of a recording, the HTPC transitions from away mode to...

    TV Server plugins are listed on this page, and "EPG Cleaner" can be downloaded from this page. Note: I don't know what bitness the plugin has. It might be 32-bit, or it might be "any cpu". The plugin is not listed by the "MP Extensions" tool, so I don't know whether it has been tested with the most-recent MP releases. -- from...
