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!!
I have a Hauppauge Win TV 7164 dual tuner.
NextPVR recognizes both tuners and each one shows as having 5 channels associated with it.
However, when I try to record 2 shows at the same time I normally get an error on one of the recordings that says "device failed to start"
Can someone point me in the right direction as to what settings I need to check/change?
Thanks!
I've scheduled a number of programs which are sequential in the TV guide, and none of them record - except the first in the series - sometimes.
In this example, I'm attempting to record Varney on channel 149 (FBN) at 9am. The target recording file is created, but it is empty. Another program was also requested for 9am on another channel, but it too came up empty. These two programs were requested to be recorded right after another program on channel 1214 seemed to be recorded correctly at 6-9am.
This scenario repeats each day...
No pre or post padding. 4 tuner Ceton with 2 tuners disabled (only testing with 2 tuners).
I have a computer that was custom built 5 years ago for Windows 7 and my Hauppauge 1600 TV Tuner PCI card. I used Windows Media Center to schedule recordings and view TV. It worked beautifully.
Unfortunately my OS became corrupt and now must be reinstalled. The question is whether to upgrade to Windows 10 and try NPVR in lieu of the Media Center.
The computer specifications are
MB Gigabyte GA-EP43T-USB3 P43 R
GEForce 9500GT PCIE 2.0 512 MB DDR3 DVI TV Out 550 MHZ Ctlr
Box Pentium E6700 3.2 G 2C 2T 2 MB 64 XD S775
I also have to use an IR blaster to change the channels. But the TV Card and Windows Media Center managed to work with that and do automatic recordings.
Is this build capable of supporting Windows 10 and NPVR, along with simultaneously running other programs like Office and Firefox, or would I have to get new hardware to handle this stuff? I already know I need more RAM, right now it's just 4GB. It was attempting to add more RAM that revealed the corruption.
How much misery am I looking at to get everything working together as well as they did with Windows 7 and its Media Center?
If I stay with 7, it's going to take days to install all the updates, but it might be worth avoiding the hassle of upgrading the whole computer system at this time.
I'm struggling to get the newa interface working, I'm running windows 10 64 bit, I did have this working previously but after upgrading to the latest version it keeps coming back on chrome saying connection refused.
Ive tried changing the port, completely scraping npvr off starting again. Now here's the interesting thing the alpha 1 of the admin panel installs fine and runs but falls over on setting up the admin panel, so that attempt failed.
I do use norton internet security but the ports for npvr have been allowed in settings and switching norton off makes no difference. Is this a common problem or would the alpha 2 of the abandoned admin panel work, or am I just getting nowhere?
Yesterday evening my internet connection went down, and I discovered that it was impossible to start NextPvr, today the connection is up again and problem gone! This is not how it is supposed to, right?
