Re: HDHomeRun Record service only working when PC has active user session

It looks like the solution was to set the HDHomerun record service startup type to "Automatic (Delayed Start)". Now if I reboot the system, the service starts reliably and I don't need to be logged in for recording to work.

Re: HDHomeRun Record service only working when PC has active user session

I performed the steps you requested... Scheduled recording then logged out 4/30/2024 8:34PM EST. Logged back in 4/30/2024 9:10PM EST. The recording had successfully started while the PC was logged out. I then ran a few more tests and I found a pattern. I rebooted the PC at 4/30/2024 9:18PM EST and d...

I do have sleep disabled. I have power management set so that it never powers off the PC or goes to sleep.

Re: HDHomeRun Record service only working when PC has active user session

Thanks Nick. I have 2 devices. I record mostly on the first one. I have left the session logged in. If you need me to log off to reproduce the issue, let me know.

I noticed that in https://ipv4-api.hdhomerun.com/discover the old DVR is still showing up, but of course the links are dead. How do I remove the old server from the list? I've tried re-running di...
