It should not be checking every 10 minutes... that suggests the record engine thinks the sync failed triggering a faster than normal retry. The sync is required because the guide servers need to know what images to keep around for recordings to have images. Here's a section of the log showing the 1...

Open to feedback - what features/areas do you think there is room to improve on? I hope that you have this already on the to-do list? The record engine already supports playout only operation (ie disabling recording) by setting the RecordStreamsMax to 0 in the conf file. We can't disable internet A...

so you really just want a DVR playout engine - not record engine. i.e. something to parse the metdata on the TS files in a folder structure, provide a recordings list, and stream requested recordings (and stay awake ;)) to the client, all through HDHomeRun APIs to the client. Makes sense. Now we're...

@rikd, thanks for your reply. Since you're new to this conversation, some background seems to be in order. CW_EPG, my HDHR PVR app (user manual here ), has been using HDHR tuners (and others before there were HDHR tuners) for many years. It handles scheduling and recording sessions via Windows waket...

I see from the logs that the DVR engine creates that it rather frequently "phones home" to find out, among other things, whether I've subscribed to the DVR service. Given that I only intend to use the HDHomerun viewer app to play local recordings, that seems unnecessary O/H for both Silico...

Thanks for the additional info. I have to apologize for misleading folks about the progress bar's mis tracking. It turns out that is only an issue on the LG TV-hosted app, which is a shame since that's the one that does AC4 audio!

Thanks, Ken! I assume that you then see the progress bar move proportionately during file play, right?

The actual time the recording started or ended is not stored. Thanks, Nick. That's what I guessed they were, and is what I used. But using those values in an unedited recording still doesn't seem to give a proportionate display of the progress bar in the player. And then I have the question of what...

No. Please tell me how they should be calculated.

Thanks, Jason, we'll definitely point to our own team for user support in setting up for the player. It really would be good to have @NedS 's metadata API description though, since I think I'm missing at least one metadata tag related to informing the player about the actual file length/duration. Th...

Thanks to everyone's help here, the current version of the Cliff Watson EPG app (CW_EPG) in the MSFT Store will soon have proper (AFAIK) metadata in all its new HDHomerun recordings. And it can insert the metadata into user-selected prior recordings. I've confirmed that these play in the HDHomerun a...

Got it! Thanks.

Thanks, Nick. I looked for SeriesID in the Schedules Direct SD-JSON developer's guide and didn't see it. Did I miss it or is that your own name for it?
