Plex shows error "Recording failed. Please check your tuner or antenna" on every recording.
**telly release with the issue:**
1.1.0-Beta5
**Last working telly release (if known):**
**Operating environment (Docker/Windows/Linux/QNAP, etc.):**
Windows 10
**Description of problem:**
Files are created, but are shorter than they should be--sometimes only a few seconds long, and others nearly the full length. I've tried an m3u specifying ts files, with and without using ffmpeg, and m3u8 files with ffmpeg (which seems to produce more complete recordings, but still incomplete and still shown as failed). Live TV plays without issues.
