NextPVR Forums

I've been using NextPVR on Arch and everything works great. However, I decided to try out Mint Cinnamon today. Clean fresh install followed by update and upgrade prior to the following commands.

It seems you are using the 1.2 version of the installer

New version of nextpvr-helper.deb required

Did you download the new one announced today?

Martin

I literally finished installing mint 15 minutes ago then ran the commands. I had not downloaded any other version so I assumed it was version 1.3.

Is this saying he's using 1.3?

...
1.3

Oops I forgot to update one of my tests that makes sure I don't corrupt an install. When I was testing it earlier sub hadn't updated the server side.

I'll pass a new file to sub now. All updated.

Thank Martin and Sub,

That seems to have fixed it I am scanning for channels at the moment.

Are you running an update if so you need to run

sudo dpkg -i nextpvr-helper.deb

Try that and give me the console messages.
