Hi,
I'm still using 4.X on Windows, which is working fine.

Is there a way to set it so that the Series/Episode info is written to the recording metada?

Please note that I don't want to change the filenames to S0E0 format, so that doesn't answer my question, I just want the data in the metada if that's possible.

Thanks
Andrew

Have a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250, but  nextPVR shows it as a WinTV-7164.
Not getting any channels when I run a scan.

I try to use NextPVR Jellyfin plugin to access to my NextPVR Recordings. I try to set both default PIN 0000 and specified PIN, but with correct PIN it keeps return 401:

Is it possible to encounter a "This copy of Windows is not genuine" issue on a Windows 10 system that is solely used as a DVR with Windows Media Center? The copy of Windows is authentic, but after attempting to use NextPVR, I made some changes and now I'm unable to resolve the problem.

I have been having issues with Matt Huisman's Australian channel 7 IPTV stream for a few weeks, and I wondered if anyone has found a solution. The stream will record for about 30 secs, and then the video freezes and the audio keeps going for a few seconds; after that, everything is back in sync, and then it happens again around 30 secs later. I have had similar issues before with these streams, and sometimes creating an extra with ffmepeg resolves it, but not this time. I have even tried to transcode to an mp4 container after the fact, but it doesn't fix the issue. 

I suspect the Channel 7 stream has been changed to do something weird, and it re-sets the time-line every 30 secs causing some kind of re-sync.

@sbiddle I know you are using the Australian streams with NextPVR, have you seen this issue? Do you know how to solve it? As I remember, you are not using Matt's links, do you have a link for a channel 7 stream that works OK with NextPVR?

Thanks

I have a quad hd dvb-t tuner. I also have a dual dvb-t tuner and a quad satelite tuner.
My question is what happens when there is a no signal on a tuner as I have had a no signal failure often lately on the quad hd tuner and the software has not attempted to try another tuner on that card or try other tuners including satelite?
Howcome it does not try other tuners as I remember on media center it would try alternate tuners or even use a +1 station to record from if all else fails.

First, I apologize if this has been discussed before, I have searched the forum for a solution to this but the discussions I have found have not been related to Docker so I am unsure of how to solve my problem.

I subscribe to an IPTV service and use it through NextPVR using my Xtreme code credentials, it works perfectly right after I set it up. However, some of the channels are special event channels like PPV, NFL game pass, etc. These channels stop working after a while, it appears that the IPTV provider changes the URLs to the channels and NextPVR is still looking for them under the URL the channel had when it was originally imported. If I manually go into NextPVR settings I can get the list to update again. I need to go through the process of selecting the groups I want to sync again (I only pull about 5% of the provider's channels into NextPVR), and then its back up and running.

I was wondering if there is a way to automate this process when running NextPVR in a Docker container? I have researched some threads that appear to be a similar issue and seen discussions regarding NScriptHelper.dll -serviceetting.m3u.update but I am not sure how to accomplish this from my Docker-compose file, or if the methods discussed in these threads are still the current best practices for resolving this.

Appreciate any advice, thank you.

   
Hi All,

A dumb question ????

What is XMLTV?
I noticed " XMLTV [https://i.mjh.nz/au/Sydney/epg.xml] " in "EPG Sources" and was wondering how to use it. 

FreeToAir EPG data is quite basic where the data contained in the above link contains Series and Episode Numbers

Snip follows

  <programme start="20231115083125 +0000" stop="20231115093815 +0000" channel="mjh-seven-syd">

I did "Add XMLTV Channel Lineup" but nothing happened

my devices ..... (Up the top)
What am I missing or what am I doing wrong

EPG updating was working until this last weekend.

I bought a Meta Quest III and had to install a PCI-e x4 card for a USB type C connector.

In the process I disconnected my coaxial cable (it must have been loose and I did not realize).

After the install, NextPVR did not work.  The client was doing stuff, my server was updating stuff, my EPG data went out over 14 days.  But when I tried to watch a show, nothing (amazing with no antenna connection).

I did NOT start by checking the connections (dumb, I know but a senior moment).

I uninstalled NextPVR completely.

I reinstalled NextPVR in the process updating the version from I think 5.11 (I think) 6.1.5.231022.  I scanned for channels.  Deleted all the shopping channels and religious channels.  I entered my Schedules Direct userid and password (verified by using cut and  paste to log into Schedules Direct).

The EPG loaded maybe 12-18 hours for 13 of the 32 channels.  I forced another loading of EPG data and it extended to about 24 hours for the 13 channels but nothing for the other 19.  I am getting EPG data for Fox, Antenna, Grit, CBS, My-TV, Mystery, CW, Rewind, Ion, Bounce, Laugh, Defy TV, and Scripps.  I am not getting data for 1stAlrt (It mostly is blank and only rarely showing a listing, it is mostly local CBS station weather reports with radar), NBC, GetTV, beIN Sports Xtra, PBS, PBS-Kids, PBS-World, PBS-Create, Comet,  MeTV, NLEC (religious but also old TV shows like Cisco Kid and the Lone Range and DIY home energy and skills), Heroes and Icons, Start, MeTV+, Story, ABC, TBD (usually blank), and Retro TV. 

Besides my forcing EPG updates, it has run through 2 normal (2:44AM) updates.  And most of the data is still missing. 


Is there a log for the EPG updating so I can see what is wrong?

I’m currently running NextPVR 6.1.5.231022 container nextppvr-nextpvr_amd64-1 in a Synology DSM 7.2 docker using an HDHomerun dual tuner (HDHR3-US).  Issue I’m having is that I’m unable to use both tuners simultaneously.  If I’m recording program A and attempt to watch program B in the same time slot, I get a “Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)” on program B. If I record program A and B, I get a “[Failed: No errors, but no data delivered. This is usually because the device failed to lock a signal.]” on the second program I selected to record.  Both tuners appear in settings.  I’ve also disabled one, then the other tuner and receive a signal, so I know they’re both working.  I also have NextPVR installed on a W11 machine using the same tuner without issue, so I’m pretty sure it’s a docker issue.  Logs attached.  Example would be “Rick Steves’ Europe” and “The open mind.”

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
