I went to watch the Austrian GP yesterday and found I only had 4mins of it! Obviously some what peeved, I checked the event logs and noticed the PC went into sleep from panel or lid action button action.

I did a quick test, recorded a prog and then pressed the power button on the PC, the PC goes into sleep and shuts off the recording!

Never had this with MCE, I use a Harmony remote which will put the PC into sleep if I switch tasks. Any ideas?

Hi sub,

My NextPVR system is very reliable thanks to your care and attention.

One of the few remaining problems I have is that my Nova-T-500 occasionally fails to lock and creates a zero byte recording. I experience this on Live TV, and changing away from the channel and back again fixes it.

Would it be possible to check the file after say 30 seconds, and if the file is zero bytes it is treated as an error and another attempt is made at the recording?

Thanks for considering this

I'm in the process of setting up a new computer to run NPVR (3.4.8). The computer is a NUC i3 (5th gen) and records from an HDHR4 (wired).

I'm having problems with playback of recorded shows. The system appears to record the entire show, but NPVR will stop partway through playback and the dialog pops up saying the recording has been watched to completion. The recordings playback normally using JRiver Media Center.

I've tried the recordings in my old system (3.3.8) and get the same result.

I'm using SAF for the system decoders and have tried v6.23 and the beta v6.30 without any success.

I found an old thread that recommended changing the HDHR Setup BDA compatibilty from "NextPVR" to "Default" and tried that without any success. I've also tried cycling through the various decoders, but the problem persists.

I've attached the logs from my most recent playback attempt. Please let me know if I can provide any other information.

Thanks in advance,
pete

Previously I had my recordings split over two drives (D:\NPVR and X:\NPVR), after building a new htpc I'v gathered all recordings on D:\NPVR. What sql statement should I use to change all instances of X:\ to D:\ in the whole database?

Source UK: Freeview EPG
Recording set for NCIS

Programs recorded; NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS: New Orleans
Which is all good, because I do want all three series

However, all there series end up in the same saved folder all with just the NCIS programme name
It is truncating the ':Los Angeles' or ':New Orleans'

It is then very difficult to work out, using the GUI (recordings) which recording is which series

I have noticed it doing this with other programme names as well, but this is a more common example


if it could be sorted to fix this, or I've missed a setting somewhere that would be great.

IN the web console trying to view the details of a program that was recorded on a channel that is no longer on the system causes an error

within details2.aspx.cs when the lookup Channel.LoadByOID returns nothing it then errors on the channel.name property
lines 200, 345, 508

2 out of the 3 main objects still have the channel name property
so I did a quick test on the LoadByOID function to see if the response is Null, then return the other details.

I have the code if wanted

This is my first time installing NextPVR.
I downloaded it from here: "http://www.nextpvr.com/NPVRSetup_3_4_8.exe"
then ran as administrator on win7 pro, and here is what happened:
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

I am getting a DVB-C multituner product from company called Digital Devices. (BTW: Are the products of this bran supported in NPVR?)

Some of the HD channels in our country are protected by a TV-card and I understand that I need some kind of hardware to decrypt these channels.
One solution would be to get a CI+ CAM to PC with this http://www.digital-devices.eu/shop/de/ma...weiterung/. However CI+ doesn't support multiple tuners so should I rely to some kind of Soft CAM if I want to record more than one of these channels or what options do I have?

My HTPC was running Win8.1x64 using Hauppauge 2210 & WinTV that came bundled with it
Thought I'd try Win10, build 10074. Wanted to setup dual-boot but MS maintained the partition was too small so after many attempts I gave in & let the installer wipe my SSD.
It was recommended I try NextPVR in conjunction with Kodi so I installed them both.
Both tuners are detected by NPVR but scan for channels doesn't find any at all - no matter which options I select. (Digital Free-to-Air)
Figured it may be resolved by going to build 10130 but no difference.
Installed WinTV & it picked up 27!
no idea what to look for in the log file!
Any suggestions?

I record 6 channels simultaneously every night during prime time using advanced manual recordings settings from a HDHomerun. Last night, I got an error that said database is locked, and, one of the timers showed as failed, however, the recording was in fact there. I guess it just couldn't update the status in the SQLLite database.

Is this perhaps a bug, or, something else? See attached log. Look for 2015-06-18 22:02:31.539

Version is 3.4.8.
