Problem with recordings after copying to new disk

John Wilson

I am seeing problems with recordings after copying my recordings to a new drive. My problems seem to be the opposite of what other posts I have found are. The recordings from prior to the drive switch are showing up in finished recordings. New recordings show up until a reboot. This is Libreelec running on a Raspberry Pi 3B+. Also, the old recordings are showing up in Kodi as individual files, while the new recordings are showing up in folders in Kodi like they are supposed to.

I checked my logs, everything seems to be there.

Since my situation seems to be the reverse of other posts, I wanted to check before going and running the ImportAddRecords.py script.

I went ahead and used the ImportAddRecords.py script. It mostly worked.

I had a handful of log files that I get errors similar to the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ImportAddRecords.py", line 340, in <module>
ImportRecordings()
File "ImportAddRecords.py", line 175, in ImportRecordings
print "File "+ filename + " already exist as Recording"
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xed' in position 43: ordinal not in range(128)
