Hello, sometimes two equal episodes are record. The option in Mediaportal to prevent this, are active (Episodetitle).

I have a record-plan for navy-cis (Record all on each Channel).
There are two Episodes successively and at the night this Episodes are reapeated.
So the repeating episode at night will be record too. But only one of these two Episodes is duplicated. The other Episode will not be record. The name of these episodes are the same.
Could it be possible that this happens because the two Episodes are successively.

The Episodes are showing Thursday on Kabel 1.

Hi IchBinsShort,

I`m also recording some series and with your issue you are describing I can told you to take a look at TVWishlist (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...plugin-tvwishlist-76506/?highlight=tvwishlist) in combination with the episodenscanner (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...diaportal-4tr-epg-76220/?highlight=tvwishlist).

With both tools I got very good results.

I hope this information helps you.

    Just to note: I tried to look at the logs but they are useless since they are not TV Server logs...

    As commented on the internal thread: I *think* your patch is okay, but it is too late at night (well, early in the morning actually ;)) for me to think straight about whether your patch addresses this issue. I don't think there would be any harm in providing a binary to allow these good people to test and see...

    Could you try the attached? Backup the existing TVService.exe first and then replace with the attached.

    Would also be helpful if you were able to test that the restarting of failed recordings works. Basically this code is there in case something happens in the middle of a recording (in which case MP has a recording for that episode but not a complete one)

    Basically stop TV service during a record and then restart and ensure that the recording restarts and you end up with two different recordings.

    No because I didn't Test it last Thursday. I had not time this day, but I will do this on Thursday this week. Then you will get the results.
