Recordings showing twice

I don't know what setting I have messed up (it is me)  but when I browse recordings, each recording is listed twice. When I delete the directory with the recordings it gives an error message and I should check the log (the only logs I see via the GUI doesn't list anything). Any hints where I should be looking to see which setting is making each recording show twice?

I do not recall seeing this or it being reported by anyone else. In the few cases I have seen duplicate recordings there were in fact duplicate recordings (due to a bug in the way TVHeadend adjusts for changes in stating time). In that case they are in the same directory, is that the case for you or is the directory duplicated as well.

I have seen phantom duplicates such as you are reporting with other PVRs - usually fixed by rebooting the system.

It is possible that the problem will be resolved by a soft resent but I would hold back on doing so until other users have an opportunity to respond. I have had instance where the soft reboot has not worked out well - it failed to restore my recordings. But that may be related to the issues with the originals SSD provided with the IceBox. Have not needed to do a reset since replacing the SSD.

The first thing I would do is to reboot the IceBox and see if the recordings are still listed twice as it sounds more like a display bug than anything else.

If they do still show duplicated then the next step would be to perform a soft reset.
