I installed windows and NPVR on my current computer a year ago. After about 6 months I had trouble with frequent computer freezing (blank screen and not responding to inputs) and considered that I may have had an issue with an well used video card, and the event viewer show a couple of errors.
Last month I removed the card, reinstalled Windows 11 and NPVR. Things ran very well until this week and two days in a row I had to reboot a non-responsive computer. I can not tell from the Windows logs what time this may be happening, and the only errors I see are com related to NPVR? The computer in question is just used as a media player (NPVR and occasional videos). Windows update is on automatic.
I ran disk and memory diags on the computer and it looked ok.
Is it possible for someone to see if there is any info in the logs that may help, even though it does not seem to be an issue during active recording?
log should be attached mkroc logs 9_16_26.zip
I am running yauiclient v3 in linux mint 22.3 and it works well except that every several days it crashes with gigabytes in the log file. I started it a few days ago and noticed that something was looking for or trying to write yauiclient.conf in my .yauiclient directory. This is a greatly trimmed log file with what I think has the details. I cleared out the log files, started yauiclient, and waited for the crash. Can you tell me what is causing this and what I need to do to correct it?
Hi.
Not sure exactly when it started but I have had issues recently where when the start padding overlaps a recording in progress, it will stop the recording and start the later one, chopping the end of the show off, in my case exactly 6 minutes. I've been using NPVR since V4 and only had this problem on later versions of V7. Previous behaviour would swap the recordings over exactly on the start/stop time, say 7pm but now it swaps at 6.54pm.
My setup has 2x astrometa DVB-T2 USB receivers and one TBS 6902 and the problem only affects the 6902 when one recording follows another on the same tuner. The 6902 is priority 1 for recording.
For now I've found an older version 7 on videohelp and installed that so I'll see how that goes. I did have a V5 which was fine but didn't store episode numbers so I'm trying 7.0.0.241105 to see if that rectifies it.
I think the astrometa are not affected as all channels are on the same transponder.
While researching something else, I came across the following statement in a post on The Green Button:
Quote:I'd hate to go back to the multiple HDPVR route alone.
This suggests that the writer had already done it, but I've never heard of such a thing: Is it really possible to attach more than one Hauppauge HDPVR to the same cable DVR, and have each HDPVR capture a different channel?
I asked the Brave Browser, and here's what it reported:
Quote:can i use more than one hd pvr with the same dvr
**Yes**, it is possible to use multiple HD-PVR devices with a single DVR setup, particularly when using software like **SageTV** or **NextPVR**.
* **Software Configuration**: In SageTV, you can configure the system to recognize and utilize multiple HD-PVR units, allowing them to tune to different channels simultaneously.
* **Channel Scanning**: Users have reported success by ensuring that **mc2xml** (used for TV guide data) is correctly configured; specifically, using a single token allows the system to handle multiple tuners without conflicts that might arise from separate guide downloads.
* **Tuning Independence**: Once configured, each HD-PVR can blast to its own channel independently, enabling the recording or viewing of different programs at the same time.
* **Limitations**: While multiple tuners allow for simultaneous recording, some legacy single-tuner DVRs or specific converter boxes may only allow one recording at a time, necessitating multiple hardware units to avoid conflicts.
As we know, this could be an AI hallucination, but then there's that TGB post. Has anybody successfully done this in NextPVR? Would it require three computers in addition to three HDPVRs? Would it work for a set-top box as well as for a DVR?
Would be great when you click on a program for it to display actors, producers, director etc if available from the tv guide or perhaps from online.
Also a movie section similar to media center where you can browse by movie type and see what is on from the guide data and maybe have big thumbnails to show.
As result of the ESPN API change noted here https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?tid=67133 I decided to update my VPS to current standards. I am not sure if I will keep the same remote server IP so stay tuned. Note that fix also fixed College Football.
I have also added WNBA support so that will require a new client.

I have been trying, unsuccessfully, to upgrade from 6.1.1.221106 on Windows 11 Pro.
I use https://nextpvr.com/NPVRSetup.exe and the installer runs but when it is complete the version is still 6.1.1.221106.
I have successfully run the installer on a different machine with NO version of NextPVR installed and this successfully installs 7.1.1.260616.
The WebUI for the currently installed version (6.1.1.221106) normally indicates when a new version is available but this is not the case now.
I have held off uninstalling and re-installing but this is an option if necessary, I can export all my recording data prior to uninstall.
Was it expected that preseason games were not found in NextEnd database? Do I need to do anything to make sure things change prior to the regular season?
I'm having issues with NextPVR finding the ABC channels in Sydney. TVheadend found them with no issues. I've tried setting <ScanDropTime> in config.xml to 10000 (default is 3000) but I don't think the app is actually using that setting as when I performed the scan, I see the line >>> Scanning 226500000 (the ABC frequency) changing in less than 10 seconds (around 3?)
Below is the console output when I run the scan manually. There appears to be a lock on the 226.5MHz but no stations found?
