NextPVR Forums - NextEnd not extending sports event

Pages: 1 2 3

I've been experimenting with NextEnd (The work is much appreciated!) and I ran into a problem: It seems to be working, but the logs show that the recording ends right at the normal time, even if the game isn't over yet. Here is the log from tonight's game:

I'm about 99% sure this is my fault. Any tips on what I'm doing wrong here? Thank you!

I would need to see all your logs.

No problem. Do you want me to zip them all up and attach them here, or do you want any specific files?

The only way to know which logs are needed is to look at the logs.

Hah! Fair enough. Logs attached. I assumed 7z would be ok.

I see the problem. NextEnd assumes users keep the default 2 minutes of post-padding and you use only one minute so the recording was stopped by NextPVR. I will have to put in a change for this. Until then increase your post padding on sporting events to 2 minutes. One of the NextEnd options is to stop the recording as soon as it is flagged as ended so that won't matter if you don't care about the post game stuff.

Martin

I can definitely change all my defaults to 2 minute post-padding. Thanks for looking into it!

For sports, I don't mind keeping the post-game stuff, actually. Does NextEnd keep it by default?

On the wiki that is the --postgame option the time to keep recording after the stop flag is set. The default is 15 minutes, but often networks preempt the post game a little so that might be a bit much.

Martin

I completely missed that. Thank you! I'll leave 15 for now. I've reset the padding to 2 minutes and have set a sports recording today. Hopefully it runs late!

Tried this again with a 2 minute buffer, and it still stopped on schedule while the game was still happening. Up for another log check?
