I was scanning thru my NRecord.log file and noticed for the last several nights an error popping up at the end of the EPG update. NextPVR attempts to tune to some channel (vchannel 7) and set target, then dumps dozens of exceptions for 1 minute as seen below. It then attempts to do the same thing for vchannel 10, with the same result. Then again.. and again..
I'm guessing maybe the process is trying to pull some EPG data from the HDHR channels? I've attached the full log.
I don't really see anything wrong in the UI, so maybe this can be ignored...

I have a problem with duplicate recordings which show up at random for various recording schedules. The recordings, all copies, are all made successfully and labelled -0, -1, -2 etc., - sometimes as many as 10 copies! This started when NPVR was transferred to an SSD but this may not be related.
There are three examples shown on the schedule screen grabs (Pending & Pending2). Also included is the relevant XML file in which I cannot see duplicates as well as the NPVR log where they can be seen. Can someone help?
As of today, I am unable to choose series recording in Kodi. I had no problem in the past, now I cannot do it. I deleted all my timers, rebooted my PC, made sure to delete all series recordings out of NPVR in the backend, and it simply will not let me choose the Season recording options. I just get "unexpected error" in Kodi
If I go to NPVR in the backend, I can choose series recording. If I choose Record Once in Kodi, it sets it up as a pending recording in NPVR backend. If I go into the NPVR backend and try to manipulate the recording to Update it to a series recording, the options are not even there. it is like it is stuck on Record Once with no options. I have been dealing with this for 3 hours now and nothing that I seem to try works.
Recently, while watching LiveTV on certain channels, I have been experiencing intermittent LiveTV freezes, stutters and audio/video sync issues on various clients. Looking at the logs, I see this error - "Unexpected rolling file seek error". What could cause these errors and are they contributing to my viewing woes?
I have two MPEG2 decoders available and neither gives me TV video: ffdshow and LAV. I tried looking for another MPEG2 decoder for win8.1 but I'm new to decoders and not sure what's likely to work. I can get video with the HDHomeRun software, so somehow TV is available on my machine, but I'd like to use NextPVR for recording, if I can get it to work. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
After doing a channel scan in nextpvr, I am missing ABC. the channel # should be 24.1, 24.2, 24.3. It is detected with my tuner in windows media center, and comes in crystal clear through the TV itself. I am new to nextpvr, and am hoping to use it to help me migrate away from media center. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. I'm using Hauppauge USB tuners and running windows 10. I set it up on another machine running win8 and it doesn't find the missing channel there either.
I got a DVBSky T680C DVB-T2 tuner with CI slot.
I installed the driver from the DVBSky website on my Windows 10 machine and everything went smoothly. I could watch my channels including the encrypted ones.
Then i tried to do the same on my server which is running Windows Server 2012 R2.
The device is listed in the device manager in Windows. But it wont show on the devices tab in NextPVR.
It's a fresh install of Server 2012 R2.
Any good suggestions?
When i plug it back into my Windows 10 machine it works again.
I use the same driver on both machines.
I'm getting my computer ready to move to Windows 10, so I'm trying to set up NextPVR so that it works with all of the stations I receive. However, there are 4 stations that will not pull data into the guide, and since they are many of the local broadcast affiliates, I'd like to get those working.
They are:
NBC (Guide Number 36.1, Channel Number 46.5, KMIRDT),
another NBC channel (Guide Number 36.2, Channel Number 46.4, MOVIES or KMIRDT2)
ABC (Guide Number 42.1, Channel Number 42.3, KESQDT3 or KESQDT), and
CBS channel (Guide Number 42.10, Channel Number 42.2, LCLCBS2 or KESQD10)
There are other channels with this problem, but these are the only ones I care about. I am able to pull in the listings through Schedules Direct for the local Fox channel and some other channels. For some of the PBS stations I am pulling in from further away, I use an alternate Schedules Direct lineup, and do the same for the METV channel.
I can tune all of these when I am in the setup version of HDHomeRun, which I only use for my antenna, not for cable or satellite. In NextPVR, I can watch the NBC and ABC channels but not the 2nd NBC or the CBS channels when I click on their empty listing.
I checked on the Schedules Direct side of things. I was able to click a link that showed what my lineup would pull into listings, and the missing shows and channels were there. If I understand correctly, NextPVR uses JSON and doesn't work that way, but I thought this could prove that the problem lies somewhere in how I have NextPVR set up.
As you might be able to tell, I am relatively new at this, so please write your responses towards a newbie. I've attached the logs and am willing to provide other info that might be required. I've searched for the solution to this problem for the past couple of days, but can't find an answer that works. I've emptied the channels and the EPG, and tried different nearby zip codes and even cable providers from Schedules Direct to map the channels, and none of it has been successful.
I'm having an odd issue. My wife will kill me if I don't get this fixed. I went to Search and found all the shows that are coming up over the next couple of weeks that I want to record. Everything worked as expected until I tried scheduling my wife's show, Nashville. I set up the recording and selected to record new episodes like I did for every other show. There were no errors, but when I click OK the show didn't get highlighted in red like it should. I went to pending recordings and it isn't there either. I rebooted my computer and tried setting up the recording again. The log looks like this:
To me, it looks like it is updating an already scheduled recording, but when I look at pending recordings it isn't there. If I go back to Search and find it again, it still looks like there is nothing scheduled. Any ideas?
I have NPVR setup on my htpc machine that is connected to my family room tv. I would like to "extend" the service to my living room and bedroom if possible. I have done some looking and exploring on the NMT and PCH forum section, tried a few things but the installers are not working. So my question is this: I have a windows 8.1 tablet that I can connect to to either of the tv's. Is there any way to connect to the main HTPC and "extend" the database to this tablet using the NPVR software? I have tried kodi works ok but I don't like the PVR features as well as the NPVR software!
IF this is not an option what are my other options available?
any ideas suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
