Summary of the problem or suggestion:
Recording Christmas program using plex and It created a really long directory and file name. This stop mecbuddy from responding to any new files loaded into the directory and locks the file name directory. I stopped the service and the gui so I could change the name length.
here is the part of the log file
Unable to search for files in location C:\Users\Public\Recorded TV\HDHomeRun for monitor task Windows Default
ERROR : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
Steps to replicate the bug:
make a file directory and file name that exceeds the character limit. scan for entry check log file notice it loops on this error.
add another entry to same directory , note that the program will not detect the new file
