Hi!

What I need to change in the settings, for example to record 48 hours?

After I change the duration of the recording of more than 30 hours, entry is 5 seconds and disappears all the time.

My dvrManifest\_0033\_00\_00.txt in this period a piece of code:

Hello,

Here’s an article the explains DVR recording options setup: [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-plan-your-wowza-ndvr-workflow](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-plan-your-wowza-ndvr-workflow) and related forum: [Is it possible to increase the 30 hours limits for nDVR?](http://community.wowza.com/t/-/37203)

Wowza nDVR limits the recording to 30 hours maximum.

Best,

Jason Tuchler
