NextPVR Forums - Cannot Save IPTV Channel List

Pages: 1 2

Hello,

First, I installed a minimal version of debian. (ie: No desktop, web server, etc)

Then, as a regular user, I installed nextpvr.

Code:
curl https://nextpvr.com/nextpvr-helper.deb -O

sudo apt install ./nextpvr-helper.deb --install-recommends

I checked the status and it is "active (running)".
Then I ran the 3 included scripts.

Code:
sudo /opt/nextpvr/shell/nextpvr-recording.sh /videos/livetv

sudo /opt/nextpvr/shell/nextpvr-recording.sh /videos/recordings

sudo /opt/nextpvr/shell/nextpvr-recording.sh /movies

Very nice work on the .deb file @Martin, thank you!

I log into NextPVR using my browser and I setup my IPTV Channel list. (Using Admin & password for now)
It looks like everything is working fine as I deselect the channels I'm not interested in. (Except for a naughty save button that disappears occasionally for some reason)
After I'm done importing & customizing my m3u list, I click the save button and I get:

192.168.0.147:8866 says: error!

I tried deselecting everything in my m3u list except one channel and still same issue.

Is my URL syntax ok? (h t t p : / /) somewhere.nice:1234/get.php?username=xxxxxxx&password=xxxxxxx&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

You guys sure made it easy so far!

Thanks,

ETA: I found my log. Smile

Is my problem because my "Scanner is not active"? How do I activate it?

The error happened earlier in your logs. The snippet you've posted above is just saying it's "no longer importing channels because failed earlier".

Retry importing your channel, then post your logs and I'll take a look. (use the 'Log Files' button to get the zip of log files to attach)

Thanks Sub,

Here is the log. as is.... It's a little large... I left it as is so I didn't delete anything important.

Thanks again!

I'm able to decrypt the m3u from the log, so quickly tried an import, and see this browser error:

Quote:rangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

I think NextPVR has managed to successfully pull in the channel list, but there must be too many channels for your browser to show you the list. This is the first time I've see a user report this.

Do you happen to know approximately how many streams are there? I know we've seen users successfully pulling back 20,000 before, but I'm guessing this is significantly more?

Wow - 298733 streams...by far the most I've ever seen. Just the m3u file is 75MB.

I don't know off hand, but I'll check. In the meantime, I'll try to get it truncated down to something more reasonable.

Thanks sub!

"I'm able to decrypt the m3u from the log"

hehe... Is this something I should be concerned about?

The best way for me to handle this is probably just ignore all the streams that are for VOD, which are the vast majority of these.

No one else is able to. I'm the only one with the private key for decrypting these. It's useful for support. (and I have no interest in watching your channels - so safe)
