Hello all!

I was using NextPVR v5 on Ubuntu 20.04. My server broke and I had to start a fresh install.

I have installed Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

I then tried to install NextPVR (V6) following instructions
    curl https://nextpvr.com/nextpvr-helper.deb -O
    sudo apt install ./nextpvr-helper.deb --install-recommends

Install failed (see NextPVR-install output).

I also tried a manual installation following this post: https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?tid=59390
Everything went fine except:
   this is NextPVR V5
   the dotnet command executes NextPVRserver.dll, but doesn't close (request Ctrl-C to close, that kills NBextPVR), and all activities are showned. If I don't Ctrl-C it, the NPVR server is running and I can play with it, As soon as I close the terminal or Ctrl-C or reboot, the server stop running.


I probably did something wrong!

May somebody help to solve the issue?

Many thanks in advance

Nothing really wrong but Microsoft netcore 3.1 doesn't work in Ubuntu 22.04 so you need to upgrade to v6. There is a workaround but Microsoft is dropping support from 3.1 in December anyway.

Thanks Martin,

Just to  confirm, I need to update Dotnet to V6 ? (not NextPvr to v6)
No you needs both, but if you use the deb installer it installs what you need.

Hi Martin,

Many thanks for your quick answers.

I cleaned the dotnet installations and started again. It worked perfectly this time!

Thanks again
