Another thing I noticed that I believe is new to this version. I use TVBoss to alter, organize, delete, change my m3u playlists. When I inserted the updated m3u into my box main storage, Tivimate recognized it automatically and updated it on my next Tivimate boot. I used to have to delete the playlist out of Tivimate and reinsert the updated m3u with new changes back into the software.

I am now (5.02) loosing a lot of pre-scheduled recordings over 4 different
play lists.
I make a point to not use a one device list more than once at a time.
I have two multi decvice play lists and two one device lists.

Just to add, in case any one asks, I regularly clear my cache on my
TiViMate app.

Can you clarify what you mean by “losing” a lot of pre-scheduled recordings? Is the schedule disappearing? Is the recording gone? Can you not find the recording file? Also what device is this on?

167

I am using a new ver 4KMax.
The schedule is not disappearing.
The next scheduled recording show at the appropriate time & date.
There is no prop with folders.
I am getting some scheduled stuff, but not all. Perhaps 50/50.

Ok, sorry, but I may not be the brightest star in the night sky, as I still have no clue what you’re asking. No idea what you mean by losing recordings.

The scheduled recording are NOT recording about 50% of the time.

So that’s common when recording IPTV or even some VOD as with say Tivimate, it can be very touchy, if the stream locks or buffers, then the recording simply fails. This may take a touch of work on your part to limit or eliminate buffering. Things like ensuring that before recording your VPN is set to a server with a low percentage of users. It’s also helpful to onow where your stream is sourced from so that you can choose a server close to that source. I had issues with my Shield Pro with dropping recording or even jumping entirel to the nexy days recording when it should have started that days recording. Eventuall after a great deal of research and testin I found that my USB SSD removable storage was plugged into the wrong port on my Shield. I ejected it, moved it to the proper port, plugged it back in and waited for it to mount and no issue since. Now I rarely lose a recording.

I noticed with these new versions of tivi mate, it will record no matter how bad the buffering is. However t i v i mate still quits recording an occasion that’s not due to buffer and I haven’t figured that out yet.

I’ve tried everything I can think of. Sometimes it records for 1 minute and quits. Sometimes longer. Sometimes it starts the recording and then immediately shuts down and jumps to adding the next days scheduled recording.n
Other times it records perfectly, for one day, but won’t record the next. Set it to start say 3 minutes before the scheduled recording and end 3 minutes after and it never happens. Got one last thing to try and that’s to record to internal storage and not removeable storage. Pretty frustrating.

175

I tried that a couple weeks ago, problem is there’s not enough memory for what I record the morning or during the night.
Off topic does your str e m i o at the end of a show or movie allow you to skip credits.? Oh wow 5.0.3 just showed up!

176

Yes for Stremio. After an update it had that ability to skip credits in a popup

177

what the Hell are you guys recording? Why do you need to record? I do not understand this!!! KODI/Stremio for ALL VOD Shows/Movies. Paid IPTV for News/Sports and don’t tell me you record News or Live Sports. That is just wrong! :rofl:

It’s 2024 why are we recording so much???

178

Oh I’m just recording to learn and study the how, what, where, etc. You’re absolutely right I don’t HAVE to record anything. This is all about the learning for me. I’m retired and bored. :laughing:

I watch one program, record another at the same time.

I occasionally have recording problems as stated, but just assume it’s connection related…me or them.

180

I record news and sports. What I record is not VOD. :sunglasses:

181

Wow I just assumed everyone watches News and Sports live. Have never recorded News or Sports. Now in the rare case (less than 1/2 of 1%) of the times it’s say a standalone Sports documentary that I know I can’t get on KODI or from my IPTV Provider I’ll go ahead and record

Assumption is the mother of all evil! LOL
