    Is the share the standard “Recorded TV” share provided by default in WHS 2011, or is it an additional share?

    If additional share, are you sure it is being indexed?  You will need to RDP into the server and look at control panel Indexing Options.

    Also, if you view the Recorded TV library properties from the HTPC client, does it show as indexed?  I forget what will show there, but if it is not indexing it will show something like “unresponsive” or something like that.

    I just noticed that Media Center wasn’t showing the shared files again (it was previously) so I went and checked things out again.

    The Recorded TV library looks fine and up-to-date from Windows explorer, all of the files show up in the directories where they should be.  They just don’t show up in the recorded TV list in Media Center.

    The shares are additional shares, not Recorded TV from within WHS.  I checked them on the server and they are set up to be indexed (and appear to be fine when viewed from Windows Explorer on the client).

    They show up consistently in the TV Library plugin, so I guess I’ll just tell everyone to go there to watch them 🙂 The UI is nicer there anyway.
