Iptv recordings stop at 179 min

[wiseowl]

Been trying to record the darts on Thursdays but every week I find that it has stopped recording at 179 minutes. I have tried altering the recording duration manually but it still does it
I'm using a vu+ solo2 with openvix 6.4.007.
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to why it keeps doing this please ?

Personally would never rely on iptv for recording

No other option. Records perfect everytime except for stopping at 179min

Any weird problems it's always worth updating to the latest OpenVix which is currently 6.7.007

Have you thought about using your providers catch-up service instead??

Not offering any catchup for the sports channels at the moment so unfortunately that's a non starter

Was thinking that might be the best option but was wondering if I'd overlooked something simple. ☹️

How big is the usb you are recording to?
If its filling up after 3 hours, this will be the cause.
I'd suggest at least 32gb if not bigger

The box has a 500gb harddrive installed. It's less than half full

Try switching to the new plugin by the same developer. Bouquet Maker Xtream it's available in the feed's to download.

Cheers. I'll give that ago. Find out next Thursday if it works 🤞

It will record other things, not just darts.
You can try to record four hours of sky news to see if it works
