MythTV Version : v29.1-15-g280138b
MythTV Branch : fixes/29
I'm noticing whenever I watch live TV (hdhomeruns), it will work fine but I'm seeing a duplicate zero byte version of the same recording when looking at my livetv group in mythweb... Is this an issue anyone else is seeing or has a fix for? This happens with both of my hdhomeruns (prime and original white dual).
LiveTV works but always leaves a duplicate zero byte recording

Re: LiveTV works but always leaves a duplicate zero byte recording
You're right, there are two entries in the DB, but only one file. If you
press r to record the LiveTV session, one entry goes away.
The entries are the same except for lastmodified filesize
(which = 0 inone entry) and recordedid+1. Don't know why
it's used, but it's harmless.
Same observation on HVR-2200 tuners, not unique to HDHRs.
What page are you using in mythweb? hostname/mythweb/tv/recorded
doesn't show 2 for me (v30-Pre.)

Re: LiveTV works but always leaves a duplicate zero byte recording
mythweb: /tv/recorded, group: LiveTV
Upon starting a livetv recording, I can immediately go there to see the two recordings in mythweb... (see attached image)
They appear to auto expire after a few minutes, it only appears to be there initially...

Re: LiveTV works but always leaves a duplicate zero byte recording
This is happening to me, as well. I replaced my existing hardware with a new system - kept the same version as I had on the original. Mythbuntu 16.04.4 which is Mythtv .28 (mythtv-backend 0.28.0+fixes.20160413.15cf421-0ubuntu2.16.04.1 amd64). Initially, I also noticed the zero byte files seemed to auto-expire themselves as mentioned above, but that seems to no longer be happening. In fact, auto-expire for LiveTV is not happening at all (might start a separate thread on THAT issue).
