I notice in the wiki that you are supposed to be able to edit 'favorites'. How do you do that? I can find edit on the menu bar in internet radio but if you select it, nothing happens. The other selections appear to work but not edit. What am I missing? And, if the menu bar 'edit' is not how you edit favorites, how do you edit them?
As you suggested, here's a link to my npvr.db3 file (it's too big to upload), and attached are the latest nrecord.log and ImageGrabLite.log so we can see if the interaction between Alan Birtles' XMLTV programme data grabber for the EPG and IGL can be reconciled, for use with my Plex Media Server. It would be great if you can get program renaming to work and/or suggest some fine-tuning...
I am trying to receive TV channels on Hauppage 2650, with card activated, through my Win 7 Home Professional. Nextpvr sees my two tunes, channels listed, but none can be seen on live TV, schedule absent. I've tried every combination of decoder configuration choices Even on Windows Media Center, even when I overcome "PlayReady not completed", the program terminates at the next step, so I can see a program but cannot use the tuner , as it says it is busy (not with NPVR active).
Basically cannot use my card, but want to use NPVR for TV, either through card or over the air.
I set my Windows 7 font size to custom - 200% so I can comfortably read the fonts in Windows from 12+' away on my 60" tv. However, I discovered that the settings windows in NPVR are not resizable, and things like the channel scan extend off the bottom of the screen so you can't click the buttons on the bottom of the window.
This isn't a huge deal because I don't mess with the settings too often, but Windows does require a log-off/log-in to apply a change of the font size.
14.1 has solved tuner not available (for me), when initialy starting channels, very happy.
However, it seems to have broken channel hopping, while there is an active stream playing.
Ie. Watching channel... select new channel, tuner no longer vail.... Likewise, watching channel, type channel number for anoth channel, tuner no longer avail...
Press stop, then select channel, works fine.
IF, i turn off Timeshifting. It goes away completely, can channel hop with no issue at all. But i use timeshifting.
Any ideas??
I seem to only be getting 11 days of guide data (through Wednesday, February 25th) from Schedules Direct today. I double checked my config.xml and it is set to get 14 days.
Is anyone else getting reduced numbers of days of guide data from SD?
I'm not sure if there's an easy way around this. I have some channels that I can't pick up at all during winter via OTA, and some channels that show up as free preview every December-January (the past 4 years). I'd like to be able to keep the channel data in nPVR so that I can easily reactivate them when they come back, and so that the recordings I have on those channels keep the channel information & logo. I would keep them, but they trick my family when they see them on the tv guide. Any thoughts other than just deleting and re-adding them when they are available?
I have been trying to install SoftPVR for a few hours now and, after studying the batch file and the content of the extracted WinTV7 installer (version 3.9g, the current one on the Hauppauge site), it seems that Hauppauge has renamed and/or restructured the libraries and filters.
End result, the SoftPVR batch file doesn't work anymore (numerous 'file not found' errors) since the files it tries to pull from the WinTV7 installer are no longer there.
I have also had no luck whatsoever in trying to find an older installer of WinTV7. Oldest I managed to find was 3.7 and that still didn't have the correct files.
Would someone be so kind as to either:
- figure out what the new required filenames are so I can correct the batch file
- package just the files for SoftPVR and make that available
or
- Put the WinTV7 version 3.2 installer online?
I've reconfig'd my machine and rebuilt the channel tables for each device. I have a HDHR with 3 tuners and an Analog with a Hauppauge card.
Here's my problem...
For the HDHR, Silicon Dust import pulls in the channel name simply as the call-sign. (i.e. "MAXHDP" for channel 838)
For the XMLTV (analog) the channel name comes in as # Name(call-sign) (i.e. "838 MAXHDP")
When merging channels, they don't match because the channel number is included in the XMLTV import mapping (i.e. "MAXHDP" <> "838 MAXHDP"). This causes me to have to manually edit every channel that is duplicate between HDHR and the Analog input (see attached image).
However, when I look @ the XMLTV file, I see the display name can be mapped via 6 entries (i.e. it's a list). The npvr import uses the 1st entry. Is there anyway to have it map to the 4th entry so that it matches the SiliconDust HDHR mapping? I think this may allow the merge function to work much better.
If there is not a way to do this, can I manually edit the XMLTV file and move the target display-name entry to the first position? Will that cause any undesired side effects for future EPG updates when a new XMLTV file is pulled and has the original order?
Sub, when does the delete from temp_file occur as part of the EPG update or only when the services restarts. Kodi is going to have add undelete feature and that got me thinking that with the NShared.TempFileManager I could fake queued deletes with the Files plugin.
