Yesterday, I fumbled around and found a way to add it to my EPG Source. Apparently, you must Right-Click the Live TV feed while it is going to show the menu for it.
I selected it, entered my username and password, and it was happy.
The EPG, though, looked no better than it did with XMLTV as the EPG Source.
In the settings, it shows that the EPG is updated at 2:47 AM.
So, I walked away (went to work), and checked it again this morning.
Today, I have the same EPG that I had the day before.
Is there a guide that can show someone who is illiterate with NextPVR and SG how to get going?
If I can't get this to work during my 7 day trial, I'm certainly not going to pay for it.
I get 0-size recordings. Live TV results in a blank screen. If I drop the memory down to less than 4gb, the card works great. I've tried a number of 64-bit drivers from ATI. They all have the same result. I'm wondering if something else in the chain is not compatible with +4gb of RAM.
I've attached the filtercheck.log and a sample of a typical NRecord.log. One thing I noticed is that the hardware encoder on the 650 isn't found by NextPVR even when memory is under 4 gig and the card is working..
Code:
about to look for encoder
About to look for hardware encoder.
AttachHardEncoder@1
Unable to get pin medium
Hardware encoder not found. Attempting to fall back to software encoder.

Has anyone else got analog record working on a machine with more than 4gb of ram?
Logs attached - reording doens't seem to work. Latest 3.4.8, downloaded today.
The directory I am trying to save to is z:\shared videos\ and it does exist; but npvr isn't creating files inside of it.
I'm able to watch live TV just fine - but not record.
The important snippets seem to be (nrecord):

Looks like it thinks it isn't locked. No idea why though, since it works ok when viewing live (with the same 'locked' result)
This symptom (no lock reported) seems very similar to the one I reported at http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...-channels& but here I can view live just fine.
Can only receive some channels which we never actually got to the bottom of.
Now that you guys have helped me access live tv from an antenna , I have a second question: Can I connect a cable feed from a Comcast DTA to the second tuner on the Hauppauge 2250? If so, what would be the setup recommended?
Ever since I installed NextPVR, I've been getting two annoying popups in IE: 1) looks like coming from W7 chat support and they know what ISP I'm using; and 2) something about a virus and gives a phone number to call for help. I'm wondering if these are related to ntray.exe, that loads at startup according to msconfig. Two questions: 1) does anyone know how to get rid of these popups?; and 2) is ntray.exe necessary to use NextPVR?
I don't know if this is related or not but I bought a NEO x8-H and set it to use NPVR as the PVR and now my other computer running Kodi and NPVR is having the dreaded "PVR Client Connection Lost" issue with NPVR. I have checked to ensure that NPVR is not being blocked by my Windows Firewall or AVG AntiVirius.
I searched the forums and can't find anything specific about this problem. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
I shut down and restarted Kodi and attached the logs.
FLIRC arrived today and have been working with it on my laptop waiting for the desktop to arrive on Thursday that will be used only for the NextPVR. Sending most remote commands to it to be recorded has worked well. But the problem I have is setting up any of the color buttons on the remote. Since none of these exist on any of the controllers in FLIRC, how can you set any of them up?
