1. How can I see what shows are scheduled to record? Nothing shows up in "Pending Recordings" and yet there is RED on some shows that I specified to record.
2. How can I cancel a season? I can select a show that is RED in the EPG and can cancel that episode but not a season.
I'm new to NextPVR - switching from MP, when T2 isn't properly supported
Problem is, when watching a channel it only buffering video for 19 min / 50 sec.
It is possible to extend the buffer size? (Have plenty og diskspace free for TS buffer files)
I'm not able to se any configuration in the config.xml that manages buffering.
I notice some database locked errors in the nrecord.log. Sample:

At first, I thought it was nextpvr. But, now I see it's likely ImageGrabLite. The reason I think this is the file gets renamed physically, however, the filename is not changed in nextpvr.
Could it be, the issue is I do 6 recordings at a time? Perhaps, when they all end about the same time, ImageGrabLite fights with itself?
I'm having a lot of issues keeping NextPVR working on my network. When I do a fresh windows 7 install with HDHomerun and NextPVR I can easily setup NextPVR add-on in Kodi on my nexus player and everything works instantly, at this point the guide is available in my webrowser using localhost:8866 as well. However a few hours later NextPVR in kodi loses connection with the server. NextPVR keeps working fine on server PC but when I try accessing localhost:8866 at that point in the Chrome browser on the mediacenter PC it can no longer access the TV guide either saying "connection refused" (it works within the NextPVR app but not on the browser). I have tried enabling the multicast, upnp, and PPPoE pass through settings in the router, putting the server PC in DMZ on router, swapping routers, disabling windows firewall, and changing windows firewall settings but nothing helps. I have also created a backup image right after setting up the computer and getting everything working, but when i restore to it after it stops working it won't work again.
I have attached my log files hoping someone can help. As far as network, I have Charter cable internet Arris modem connected to DLINK DIR655-router with wired ethernet connections through unmanaged Zyxel GS1100-16 switch to media server PC running windows 7 ultimate, nexus player with ethernet adapter, and HDHomerun prime with Charter Cablecard.
Like I said, I can get everything working fine but for some reason after a few hours it seems like something start blocking the connection. I have no idea what to do at this point and any help would be much appreciated.
I am trying to setup NextPVR With Kodi, and am suffering a number of annoying issues.
a) When running Kodi NextPVR Client I keep getting error - No PVR Clients have been started yet.
- The web server is running and on IE this works find http://127.0.0.1:8866
- I can see guide and view programs.
- I have correctly configured the NextPVR client, but it will not connect ???
What am I doing wrong?
b) I cannot get the webserver to run on Chrome.
the application/x-vlc-plugin seems to be an invalid plugin?
How can I fix this?
I have windows 8.1
Running lasted NextPVR (3.4.8)
Running latest Kodi (15.0)
Installed nextpvr due to wmc not being available with windows 10. Using the TBS satellite card wmc finds most channels. Nextpvr will only find a very limited number of channels on only 2 frequencies. The tbs is connected to a multiswich fed by a Quattro LNB. I am trying to tune in the freesat channels on Astra 2 satellite. As I said wmc works suggesting the hardware is ok.
I have been using WMC in Windows 7.1 just fine for months, then, out of the blue, their guide listings stopped updating. I confirmed this with a different computer, a laptop with Windows 7 as well. I tried removing WMC completely, emptying the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome folder all of that, then resetting everything back up like new. NOTHING. So, off I went looking for an alternative. Nothing works.
When I got NextPVR installed, all seemed fine, except, shocker of shocks, the guide listings are blank. I cannot find ANYWHERE to tell it to enable and update. Also, there is no sound with live TV.
I looked at the FAQ here, no help that I could understand.
Could someone please walk me through, step by step, how to get everything setup so that the guide updates and I can set OTA digital channels to record?
Also, what format are the shows recorded in?
I would really appreciate it. Starting miss my daily recorded shows.
I am on normal windows 7.1, HDHomeRun setup via Ethernet and working fine for live TV.
I've been using Windows Media Center (WMC) for about a year since I pulled the plug on 'cable' and started recording Over the Air broadcasts. I installed two Hauppague 2250 cards giving me four tuners. Despite minor issues, WMC has served me well... until last week... when I learned they changed their EPG provider and discontinued support for WMC in Windows version 10. I'm using Windows 7.
The new EPG provider is substandard and only provided half of the channels in my area, thus the migration to NextPvr with Schedules Direct for the EPG service.
Installing NPVR was trivial. The problem came when using the Hauppague (45 button) remote. With WMC enabled, certain buttons would launch WMC completely making them worthless in NPVR (especially the Live TV, Guide and Recorded Programs buttons). On my computer, disabling the WMC feature also disabled the MCE remote too. That was okay since I wanted to keep an eye on WMC and it also provides an Actor search queue that I haven't seen in NPVR (yet).
By the way, I did reference the wiki to modify c:\windows\Irremote.ini and a few remote configurators.... nothing worked. I saw some interesting comments in the Irremote.ini talking about 'native' calls which could not be modified (or turned off) for WMC. I suspect the windows DLL that handles the calls bypasses any modifications made to the ini file.
Okay, let's get to it, here's how to fix the problem. You need to rename c:\windows\ehome\ehshell.exe to something else like myehshell.exe. Think of ehshell.exe as wmc.exe. But there's a trick: you just can't use Explorer or Dos Command to rename the file (typical windows bs). You MUST boot to a non-windows (7) environment. I've been using Hiren Boot CD 15.2 to backup my hard drives which is a Linux shell on a bootable cd. Launch the Linux Rescue Environment, file manager and you won't have any problems finding or renaming the file. Linux/Unix expertise is not needed. Clonezilla on this cd is the BEST backup/restore program EVER, better than Ghost or anything else out there, and free... you may want to take a look at it, especially if you have your OS / Programs on a 120 gb ssd drive that is easy and small to backup/restore. I digress.
After renaming the file you'll have the best of both worlds. NextPvr with no MCE Remote issues and WMC with no MCE remote issues. To start WMC, rename the command in the launch icon from ....\ehshell.exe to ...myehshell.exe. That will now be the only way to launch WMC now.
Hi. I'm in the UK and trying out NextPVR and Kodi as a possible replacement for Windows MCE. Have a PCTV 291e USB stick which works fine with MCE enabling me to watch UK Freeview terrestrial digital channels. Have installed latest version of NextPVR and configured it to the point that it has found digital channels (118 in all - both TV and Radio) and have also got EPG working. However, having problems viewing. On some channels I can see the video but get no audio and others it's the other way round (audio but no video). Have installed Kodi and initial testing seems to show it doesn't have same problems. I've attached a zip of the log files. Would appreciate any advice on what might be wrong.
I just installed because Windows media Center had a critical error and lost all my season passes so I thought now would be a good time to try this program. When I click live TV all I get is a black screen with no audio. However if I go to the temporary directory there is a TS stream file and if I click it with VLC there is video and audio. What is wrong with this? Thank you very much.
