I was able to get the log from when this happened last night. We started watching the in-progress recording "One World Together at Home" about an hour after it started recording. We were watching and skipping ahead until about 10 when the recording was scheduled to end and the playback unexpectedly ...

Sadly, I think I need to ask you to reproduce again and capture the Kodi log file.

No problem. I will try to get a log this week. Thanks.

To make sure I'm comparing apples to apples, are you using Kodi Leia 18.6, or some other version? One follow-up, is/was the recording itself intact, or did it get truncated at the point where it stopped playback? Just want to make sure it wasn't the DVR ending it prematurely or something weird like...

Thanks for the reply. I don't think I explained this properly. I am watching an in-progress recording from the beginning after it has recorded several minutes, not watching it "live/real-time". Say a recording is scheduled from 8-9 PM. I start watching at 8:30 and when it hits 9:00 and the recording...

Watching a recording in progress works very well until the DVR stops recording the program. Playback unexpectedly stops in Kodi and the resume point is lost. Is there anything that can be done about this or is it a Kodi issue? My client is NVidia Shield (Android TV) and my DVR is Windows 10. Thanks.

So, in summary - the Kodi feature works, make sure that you have the same PVR addon options on all the Kodi instances to ensure the same internal file name(s) will be generated by Kodi

That was my problem - different naming settings on the clients. Thanks for looking into this!

Is there any way to share "watched" status between multiple clients (i.e. the check mark in Kodi)? I can do this with my movies by having a shared/networked db but can this work for PVR recordings? Also, is there any skin that lists the recording groups as a grid with series thumbnails instead of a ...

(Leia/Matrix) Fix bug preventing recording resume position from being set if recording is in-progress

Thanks for this. I will give it a thorough testing this weekend with the NFL games.

Did you start the recording via Recordings, or by playing the channel and being prompted to switch to the in-progress recording?

Started from Recordings. Thanks.

The resume point does not seem to be saved when watching an in-progress recording (after stop, can only play from the beginning). If the recording is completed, the resume point is saved correctly. This is on an NVidia Shield client.

Thanks, all, for the help. Another question: Does the API give read/write access to the current playback (resume) position for each episode?

From reading other threads, it looks like there is an URL for the json of the completed recordings list. I may be missing something obvious, but I don't see any mention of this in the API documentation. Is there even more to the API that is not documented such as getting a list of the pending record...
