I'm trying to troubleshoot my PC waking up immediately after going to sleep (after 1 hr 5mins).
I looked at the Event Viewer logs filtered on "Power Troubleshooter" (in logs) and there are a number of events (example below) referring to NRecord.exe which occur after the completion of the wake to record. I also know that PostProcessing.bat calls comskip.exe.
Code:
The system has returned from a low power state.
Sleep Time: 2015-10-03T22:09:32.453496600Z
Wake Time: 2015-10-03T22:10:33.966870600Z
Wake Source: Timer - NRecord.exe
Is it likely that what is logged as NRecord.exe is actually comskip.exe, called from NRecord.exe via PostProcessing.bat but logged as coming from NRecord.exe in EventViewer?
If not then any suggestions why NRecord.exe would keep waking the PC every 3 or 4 mins, after it has finished recording?
Finally, what can I do to avoid this behaviour (Server is in the bedroom so is quite sensitive to WAF...).
I have next all set up other than what to put in for the channels I want to access. I would like to use the channels from DexterTV, Phoenix and IPTV, but I have to list those in the settings and I don't know how to determine what goes in there. Can anyone help me get that info? Thanks.
I'm trying to get a script running that checks if a recording is in progress before updating the EPG. My updates are scheduled to run at 5am, not a time I normally have recordings going, but ever once in a while it presents a problem. I messed around with this a while back but couldn't get it working. Having lost another recording has motivated me to fix it. I good while ago I found a snippet that is supposed to check if a recording is in progress and wait until it's done before starting the EPG update. Unfortunately running the bat file seems to put the script into a loop and never actually does anything. I added some simple logging to the script so I could see were the problem occurs. There's nothing recording but the script just keeps restarting itself. Could someone script savvy take a look and see if there's any glaring errors that might be causing
Code:
@ECHO off
REM Update EPG only if not recording
ECHO -------------------------- >> epg.log
ECHO Starting new updateEPG BAT file run - %time%>> epg.log
CD /d "%~dp0"
:loop
set chknpvr=1
"c:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\NScriptHelper.exe" -isInUse | find "NOT RECORDING"
set chknpvr=%ERRORLEVEL%
if %chknpvr% NEQ 0 timeout 300
if %chknpvr% NEQ 0 goto loop
if %chknpvr% EQU 0 "C:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\NextPVR.exe" -updateepgonly
ECHO updateEPG BAT complete - %time%>> epg.log
exit
And here's a portion of the log that gets generated.
Code:
Starting new updateEPG BAT file run - 13:07:56.88

Hi All
I need some help getting some basic functionality going with a HDHR Prime. I recently upgraded to W10 on one system. I just want to be able to view some basic channels using my HDHR Prime as the tuner. So I installed the latest NPVR release and I have totally forgotten how to set it up for using that tuner. Do I still have to use a network tuner plugin? Or is there a native way to do it. The tuner does not show up in the tuner list in config.
In an attempt to get my EPG working better I decided to stop using the EPGCollectors XML file for my guide and drop back to the standard OTA guide data. This now fills the guide well with some juggles on timing etc. The challenge I now notice is that I do not seem to be able to schedule series type programs. Even if I try and do something like Doctor Who on BBC1 it refuses to even highlight as a recording let alone record all episodes. I tried this because I thought if any guide data would be good it would be the beebs ;-)
The question is, should the guide data I am grabbing from DVB contain this information. i.e. should everything just work?
I'd use SchedulesDirect but unfortunately it appears that is not possible outside of the US and a few related countries. :-(
Any pointers to a flawless EPG would be gratefully received.
Has anyone discovered any PartnerID's or way of getting the uuid for TitanTV? I hear there's no way of getting it anymore, but didn't know if anyone had any other ideas.
I have Windows 10 set for automatic updates, and last night it restarted for an update while I was recording a show. Can NPVR prevent this or do I have to turn off automatic updates?
This afternoon while watching a recording, it started stuttering !
I looked at the Device status and there was 10+ recording of the same show. Way too many for the server.
I tried to cancel the recording with the client, but the status didn't show any change
I tried to cancel the recordings on the server, but NextPVR was unresponsive.
I stop the service, restarted the service and again I had 15 or so recording of the same show.
I kill all compskip processes and was able to cancel the recordings with the client. Some showed "...alternated airings...:
Maybe I should untick the "Look for alternate airings on unresolved conflict" ?
The only thing that changed on the server in the last days was the installation of Windows Update yesterday followed by a reboot.

KB3080079 Update to add RDS support for TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2
