2 days ago my nPVR program stopped recording programs and began producing errors when I tried to delete previously recorded shows. I can watch previously recorded programs with no issues. I assume this means nPVR somehow lost privelages to modify files, but I can't see why. I can delete files I have watched manually using windows explorer.

Things I have tried:
I had not yet updated to v 3.5.7, so I tried that...no effect

I used windows explorer to "share" my recording directory with "everyone" and gave read and write permission...still has same problem.



I've attached my logs. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?...going to be a real bummer when the fall season begins next week

Hi all,

I wish ......

I have a new program "The Beautiful Lie" (a series) that I would like to record, I have the Channel - 2 ABC, the Date 2015-10-18 but no time.

Is there a way to set up a scheduled recording for the Title, Channel and Date? (I do not want to record a full days programming for that channel)

When I change channels this happens every time. I unistalled and reinstall the most current version. I have 2 Hauppauge tuner 2500's and it works great on Media Center, but not on Nextpvr. Running windows 8.1. Records great using NextPvr, but live TV is an issue. Attached are the log files.

NextPvr is needed so I can upgrade to windows 10. Seems to be the best of the bunch for TV and Recordings.

So, is there any way to set up a recurring recording to follow your favorite football team?

That is, no matter the day, channel or time, the game will always be recorded.

This one definitely falls under "first world problems"

My beloved harmony 785 remote has bitten the dust and I'm looking at a replacement. The Harmony Touch looks good with one problem - the skip forward buttons are in an amazingly awkward position at the very top of the remote above the screen!

I've been experimenting to see if I can get the cursor navigation buttons to work as skip forwards and skip back by editing the keymappings.xml file so I can use the d-pad on the remote for playback skipping (in a similar way to Plex / Kodi). This works perfectly when playing back and skipping but unfortunately makes navigating the EPG impossible (detects right keypress as skip forwards and jumps a whole day forward).

Not convinced there is a fix for this but has anyone else tried to do something similar with any success?

Hi,

X-Newa is unable to connect to the server with Nextpvr in the morning. The solution is to walk to the server and stop the NPVR Recording service and kill the ndigitalhost.exe process. It will then work fine for 24 hrs and fail again the next morning.

Its something I've been meaning to fix for a while but haven't yet found a solution and wondered if you had any suggestions on what I could try other than walking to the server or how to better diagnose the issue??

Worst case scenario is I could run a batch file on server wake to kill the process and service.... but is there a better way??

[INDENT][/INDENT]REM Restart recording service
taskkill /IM ndigitalhost.exe /F

taskkill /IM ndigitalhost.exe /F

NET STOP "NPVR Recording Service"

NET START "NPVR Recording Service"[/INDENT][/INDENT]

My TV tuner (WinTV-HVR-2255) gets fine reception with the WinTV app from Hauppauge, but the NPVR has to buffer (alot) and sometimes locks up or freezes and continues.
Whats up with that... Only happens on UHF channels.

Thanks....

Running NPVR 3.5.7 and Kodi NPVR client 1.10.8 with Kodi 15.1

I haven't attached the log files as I believe this is more of a question on how to handle a problem I currently have.

My live tv buffer file will keep growing if the Kodi clients connection is abruptly disconnected. So the power went off the other day and I have the NPVR server on a battery backup but the Kodi Clients are not on battery backup. I noticed the Live TV Buffer directory was still growing with no clients connected and streaming. How do I get around this, say if I'm not home for a week and the power goes down and comes back I would come home to a full HDD.

Is there a way to have like a keep-alive check or something and stop server from buffering to directory when clients are actually not connected?

We now have a lineup for Astra 19.2E which is fairly complete, and as accurate as I can make it without actually being able to pick up Astra 19.2E. Some channels have multiple potential mappings on our side; there are a few different Al Jazeera English transmissions as just one example, and I can't tell which one to use so I just selected one. For some channels the provider doesn't have an agreement with our upstream, so we don't have schedule information for them.

If you're able to receive Astra 19.2E and aren't in Germany then please send me your three-character country code and I will add it as an option; this also means that if we don't have lineups in your country currently then you may still use the Astra lineup and send me a PM for a 90-day trial code.

If you have a different satellite then I would need dump, which you can mail to me at rkulagow@gmail.com :

Go to the Settings screen, then can select a device, then click 'Export Channels' button at the bottom of the screen.

At which point I can create a lineup for that satellite; depending on the number of stations that I need to map it can take a day or so.

When I archive a show it leaves behind 3 files, movie.nfo tvshow.nfo and folder.jpg, which I think are created by ImageGrabLite

Would it be possible to choose by extension what gets moved? This is related to this thread too:
