tvheadend recordings unavailable after reboot - pisabell - 2019-08-12

Hello all,

My tvheadend server is working fine except for one issue: whatever recordings I made during a session are no longer visible after a computer reboot.

The recordings can be accessed fine until the reboot happens. After the reboot, the recorded file remain in my "recordings" folder but tvheadend do not see them as recordings.

The following error is reported in the kodi log:
