I've been running NextPVR for a few weeks on a system with two tuner cards - a TBS 6221 and a TBS 6920
As of today, the former has stopped working within NextPVR - Windows can see it, and the NextPVR settings page can see it and scan it (spotting the channels I deliberately removed from the list), but actually trying to watch a channel on the TBS 6221 (like BBC 1) results in the error "unable to find available capture device" being displayed. Accessing a channel on the other card works fine.
Logs are attached, including my FilterCheck log (I did a good hunt around the forums!)
The bad news is that I had a disk failure. The good news is that it was all backed up. This was not my main disk but the one that I use to store recordings.
The second bad news is that may have messed up the recovery. Now I need help.
After installing the replacement disk, I restored several of the recordings. To test that all was well, I started up NPVR and was able to view the programs. So, I shut NPVR down and restored the rest of the recordings. Now the bad news. When I restarted NPVR, all I can see are the few "test" recordings that I first restored. I can't see the rest.
How can I get NPVR to recognize all the recordings on the disk?
When I try to set up the NextPVR PVR client in Kodi 15.0 and i back out of it, it won't keep the server address of 127.0.0.1 even after hitting done. I am trying to record using the NEXTPVR client. Any suggestions? I am using an android tablet is that makes a difference.
Does anyone know if it's possible to get the 7 day Sky EPG OTA?
I have a number of FTA SKY channels which pickup the Now & Next EPG from their specific channel frequency but like for Freesat, I'd like to capture the 7 day EPG for those channels.
Hi Sub and/or anyone else who may be able to help. Is it possible to use the Schedules Direct API to get the lineups that I've setup in my SD account rather than lineups for a given Zip Code? When I provide my zip code, the Charter Digital lineup that is returned isn't the correct one and I don't see any way to fix it. Maybe you could change the SD Manage Lineups interface to have a couple of radio buttons to choose between the retrieving lineups via User or via Zip Code? Thanks in advance for the help!
I just reinstalled NPVR after upgrading my computer to 64-bit Windows. Some of my old EPG tools aren't working with the new version of Windows, so I currently have NPVR using Schedules Direct as the EPG source.
That works fine, but I'm wondering if there's a way to highlight which shows are new episodes in the TV Guide? NPVR knows which episodes are new for recording the shows, so I'm hoping there's an easy way to show them in the guide?
I would like to give GBRecord92 a whirl since there don't seem to be other ways to digitize analog video with hardware MPEG-2 encoding.
I want to use a long-of-tooth Pentium 3 @667Mhz system and Windows XP SP3 for this project. This eliminates VirtualDub which wants at least a P4.
I have a Blackbird (Conexant 23880/23416) capture board, apparently pulled from an HP Media PC. HP's driver update installed successfully.
So far I am able to capture with DScaler 4.1.15, but only to AVI files at more than 1/2 GB per minute. I would definitely like to try my card's hardware MPEG-2 encoding to take advantage of much smaller file sizes and minimal CPU load. Doing this via a command line utility is no problem, so I am hoping someone has a copy of GBRecord that I could download or receive as a file attachment.
I am still having some problems with the aborts when changing channels. Here are the log files and a JPG of the abort. Completely re-installed NextPVR using the latest files.
I am using a HD Homerun Prime and a Raspberry Pi 2 to stream live TV to my TV. NextPVR is installed on a Windows 7 Pro server. The issue that I now have is that the video and audio are out of sync.
Are there any tweaks or changes that I can make that will correct the out of sync issue?
Now that I got Live TV working, I can move onto the next item. The TV guide is not populating with content. I have the channels, but I get "No Show Details" in the body. I did a little research previously, and learned that I had to purchase a schedule from "Schedules Direct". I'm currently using the seven day trial period.
I updated the EPG in the Channels setting to use Schedules Direct on all three tuners. Am I missing something else in the settings?
