Rats… .Tablo doesn’t seem to make the “live” watching obtainable (?). I lose.
My bad, it was there… copying now.
irritating because it doesn’t know to reattempt after it boots.
The new firmware (launching shortly) will be a big help here - both to reduce the number of reboots, and to continue recording when it comes back online if there was one.
Three recordings on three separate channels. Only one actually recorded. It still allowed me to view them but wouldn’t allow me to record anything after multiple tries.
I think there may be an issue with channels being released in the Tablo. I posted the following (in an earlier draft form) in one of the other threads...
Has anyone seen Tablo not release channels from the tuner? Let me explain, I've had a channel selected on the Roku Live TV (which is not a scheduled recording). I backed out of the Roku Tablo App and started another app on the Roku. Later when I logged into the PC Web App, the same channel that I had earlier been watching on the Roku still seemed to be selected (flashing red). I thought that closing the Tablo app on Roku should have released the channel but that didn't appear to happen. Not sure if a more graceful way to exit the Tablo Roku app is needed to release the channel or this behavior could be causing bugs... just bringing it up as an observation for the gurus that know more than myself on this stuff.
Good to know. Thanks for the explanation.
I have a quad tuner and it just missed the Toy Story special that aired tonight. I remember setting it to record and went into my Roku and didn’t see the show there. I logged into the web interface and went to “scheduled recordings” and it was there for just a second and then disappeared after the Syncing was done. I hadn’t watched any live TV since before Thanksgiving.
I upgraded it to the latest firmware Sunday night when I got back from Thanksgiving travel.
When will a page be added for us techies that allows us to see logs, diags, & sysinfo so we can troubleshoot.
A couple of times a week a show scheduled to be recorded did not record. No message, etc, just not there. I scheduled the Cowboy / Bears game for tonight, and did not get any of it. I have other shows scheduled as “REC NEW” that did have a new episode broadcast but not recorded.
Does it at least show up as a missed recording?
What HDD are you using? If you have HDD problems where it turns off or the Tablo does not see it, it won’t record.
I observed the same issue last night. I had ‘Peter Pan Live’ scheduled for recording on NBC yesterday (don’t laugh, it’s a great live show) but the recording never got started. I wanted to record it and NOT watch it live due to the many commercial breaks. 45 minutes after into the show I checked if the recording had started as scheduled but it hasn’t. I checked the schedule and it was still selected and scheduled to be recorded but never started. There is a rerun this coming Saturday so I can try again but it’s still irritating this happened for no apparent reason. I don’t think I’ve seen this behavior before.
Yeah Peter Pan didn’t record for me either
Interesting, I saw this thread after I had went in to make sure I had shows to record checked and noticed Peter Pan was no longer selected to record. I am thinking something changed in the guide so that when it updated it lost the schedule. Only thing I could think of.
Happened to me as well. Peter Pan disappeared off my recordings list so I reset it for the next showing (12/13). Checked this morning and it was gone again as was The Great Christmas Light Fight. Placed them both back on my schedule this morning so we shall see if they stay all week. I seem to be only having problems with single show recordings. My series recordings are working fine.
Update:
I took @TabloSupport 's suggestion and set it to series record Peter Pan Live. The next airing is still showing as scheduled for me.
