Microsoft Media Center always showed what was a repeat. If it didn't say "Repeat", then it was a new episode. That gave me the opportunity to quickly scan for where the new programs were.
The guide XML files I have use the <date> tag to provide the original airing date. I could see if the <date> tag was different than the guide date, then it would be a repeat. I certainly don't know if all XML files include that tag, but if it is available it would be good to know if the program was a repeat or not. Even just posting the original air date would be useful.
I just upgraded my Nextpvr to the most current version (3.4.8), and in doing so I completely uninstalled the old version before I installed the new one. One of the reasons I did this was to eliminate the old channel lineup so that I could rescan a new one as I have upgraded my antenna and should get more channels than I did. So in the new installation I have zero channels to start, as you would expect. I go to the settings->devices->device setup->scan. All of my devices are listed there, and all seem to be functioning normally. The scan goes through the full range of frequencies from 2-69 and all the channels I expect to show up are found.

Then when it says that the scan is complete, I click the OK button and get this
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
No channels ever get added to the list. I have scanned over and over. I have rebooted. I have reinstalled. I have disabled all other devices. Nothing works.
Could someone repost this again. I'm having ComSkip problems and I keep seeing this batch file referred to but the link is no longer valid. I've tried looking in the GBVR sections but I'm not seeing it.
After a quick search I cannot see what "forget" does in the recordings screen. When I have a recording highlighted and then bring up the "Back", "Sort", "Filter", "Man-rec", "forget" menu and select "Forget" it asks me if I want to Forget the recording. If I say OK nothing seems to change.
Hi I am never sure which region to select for Liverpool/Merseyside. As there is nothing in the list nearby.. how come? I know Liverpool falls under Grenada but not sure which would be the best region to select. Skelmersdale or West Kirkby maybe??
I have downloaded and installed NextPVR 3.4.8 to replace Windows Media Center, as I have just updated to Windows 10 and found I no longer have that capability (thanks, Microsoft).
I consider myself to be fairly good at computers. I installed NPVR, and followed the instructions for installing and configuring mc2xml. The batch file creates an output TVGUIDE.xml file. I have mapped the tuner channels to the channels in the xml file. All seems to go well. But when I actually try to look at the guide in NPVR, it is filled with "(no show details)".
I have examined the NPVR.log file (attached), and it shows that channels were recognized, and show listings have been imported, but none of these shows appears in the guide.
It would appear that I am clearly missing a step, but I cannot figure out what it is. Can anybody give me a hint?
I thought I would start a new Thread for this as the Thread I posted in was last used in 2005
I would love to see some Metadata from EPG_EVENT.description included with the recordings.
It is often the only place that I can get the Season and Episode information.
From a ".wtv" show converted to ".dvr-ms" I can get the following ..
Movie name : Masters Of Sex
Movie name/More : (S.3,Ep.2) Three's a Crowd - The shockwaves surrounding the events of Masters and Johnson's press
conference begin to reverberate around their universe as the book nears its release. #MastersofSex
WM/MediaStationCallSign : SBS HD
I would also like to see The Station Call Sign appended to the saved file name. This can be obtained from SCHEDULED_RECORDING.channel_name.
eg.
"935" "935" "Masters Of Sex" "D:\RecordedTV\Masters Of Sex\Masters Of Sex_20150813_21302230.ts" "1" "2015-08-13 11:25:00" "2015-08-13 12:30:00" "20" "7152" "65" "SBS HD" "<Event>
"D:\RecordedTV\Masters Of Sex\Masters Of Sex_20150813_21302230.ts"
would become
"D:\RecordedTV\Masters Of Sex\Masters Of Sex_20150813_21302230 SBS HD.ts"

Things were working great ... and then I upgraded to Windows 10. Sigh ... . Now I cannot connect to my DCR-2650, keep getting the error about unable to find any available capture devices. But FYI, running WinTV8 on the same PC -> it works, I get video out.
Here is what I tried with NextPVR,
- opening the program, went to Live TV -> no available capture devices.
- tried to go to devices, device setup, and scan channels -> just hangs
- hit cancel -> Unhandled Exception (info below)
Any thoughts? BTW, I can also access the DCR-2650 from IE, look at the settings, etc. And the NextPVR log is attached (NPVR.log).
Thanks!
