I see that others have reported this problem. I just noticed it this morning, when I checked my schedule, I noticed a couple of movies were scheduled to record that looked familiar. So I checked my Recordings, and sure enough, they were recorded several days ago. So I manually cancelled the new scheduled recordings… don’t need more than 1 copy of any movie.
How odd!?
Historically speaking, when it re-records something it means that your existing recording had some sort of defect with it, either reception, or otherwise…so it’s going to try to record a new copy for you…so, in general, if I ever come across those situations, I let it record the new one and delete the old one.
Yes, I have experience with this. I did a check of the previous recordings, fast forwarding thru, and did not see any of the characteristic pixelization that is normally associated with this sort of problem.
Do you have do not record duplicates turned on in the Settings on the Tablo?
Also could just be a guide data problem - Tablo thinks they are two different “things”, not the same so it records both.
Yes, I do. But it should not make any difference… movies are 1 and done. Tablo should not record 2 of them… unless there was a problem with the 1st recording. Movies are not like series, each should stand alone, even if it is a sequel… or prequel.
