Buffer not clearing out
#1
I just recently updated my nextpvr install to the latest version(released in December i believe)
Anyways, I noticed I only had 185gb out of 2tb free, I so I dug around and the the culprit was the NextPVR buffer dir, it had 1.1 tb of files sitting in there.
I never watch live TV from the backend server and rarely do so from Kodi, so I am guessing it's using the buffer dir for recordings as well.
Was there a bug in older versions that would not clear out the buffer dir?
I of course cleared it out manually and will keep a eye on it for a bit now.

We've had a couple of Kodi users reporting this. If you post the details over at the NextPVR forums, I'm happy to help you work through it.

My experience has been that residual files remain in the temp directory of the backend server only when my kodi client crashes or otherwise suffers some kind of anomaly.
I periodically manually delete these old residual files after insuring that no tuner is active.

Workaround for now is to set the "Timeshift Mode" under the misc. settings to Time Based instead of EPG Based. That worked for me at least.
