Here in Canada Schedules Direct http://www.schedulesdirect.org/ is a great EPG source well worth the money, but I don't hear about it much from users in other countries? If you live in any of the following why is that? I know NextPVR only supports three but that likely is because of lack of demand. I've even noticed one of the devs from SD rkulagow drops by on the forums so you might even get a little bit of help if needed.

I'm just setting up a new NextPVR box and am having problems getting the OTA EPG to download. I'm running NPVR on a Windows 8.1 machine and I'm using an HDHomerun Dual for my tuners. I am able to start up NPVR and watch all OTA channels fine and can even record programs while watching. When I request the EPG to download it takes 15 to 20 minutes for it to download and I only get 2 hours of programming information. I have set up the EPG to automatically download new information everyday at 5:15 AM but nothing is happening. Any ideas?

Thank you

Hi,

My setup is
- HTPC, Win 7 updated
- kodi 14.1,
- nextpvr 3.3.8,
- nextpvr client 1.9.17.
- Dvb-t card Technisat Airstar 2 BDA driver 4.6

On first start of Kodi all works fine, but if I close Kodi and start it again live tv is stuttering and buffering.
Only helps restart of windows,

What could be the problem?

I have one of the new Model 2 B+ RasPi boards on order - it should ship today, I hope.

Has anyone started doing any testing with one yet? I'm curious about video streaming PVR front-end performance with the plugin.

I'll report on my new setup and performance one I get things configured & running.

I have a "server" win7 x64 running NPVR3.3.8/Kodi14.1 On that machine I have sub channels in the epg of npvr + kodi.

I just installed Kodi on a pc in the living room win7 x32, link it to the server. EPG does not show sub channels, converts them to whole numbers. Guide data all messed up, shows listed on the wrong channels.


So i guess the real question is Did Kodi 14.1 include Sub's sub channel patch? I thought it might since my server machine had them in kodi. Was not sure if that was the first place to look.

I just got in on a free one week preview for Sling TV... seems pretty slick. I haven't tried it on windows yet, but on mac it uses a standalone app that you need to install, any chance this could get integrated into the NPVR client?

I believe I read in the nextpvr wiki that you could record two channels with a single tuner. However, I cannot seem to do that. I set up two manual test recordings of 10 minutes each to record at the same time, but on different channels of course. I could not set the second recording because it told me that there was a conflict with the other scheduled recording. I had to choose between the two. What did I do wrong?

I am using HD Homerun Extended for the tuner. I can watch TV through NPVR. The picture appears to be SD from the description in Kodi and the general not so great picture. HD Homerun says to make sure MPEG2, H264 and AC# is set up. When I go into NPVR settings and look at decoders, MPEG2 is disabled and there is no way to change it. Any help is appreciated.

I was watching Live TV using the native NPVR client when all of a sudden Live TV stopped and the picture just froze. After a few minutes, I discovered that my wife turned on a different PC on the same network and started watching Live TV using WMC. At the time, only one tuner out of three of the HDHR Prime was being used, but WMC decided to use the particular tuner being used by NPVR and basically stole it.

I repeated this process multiple times. It appears that if WMC on a different PC wants a tuner, it takes it regardless if it is being used by NPVR or not. Is this a known problem or is it just that NPVR and WMC don't play well together?

I just rebuilt my pc and I'm having 2 problems with my new install of npvr. My first problem is how do I restore my recurring recordings? I dragged my recurring-backup xml file into the folder but they don't show in npvr. The second problem I'm having is no sound from live tv when I use my amd hdmi. I have sound using this renderer playing back previous recordings and I can get sound for live tv with my pc speakers if I use default but I watch tv on my tv not my pc. Logs attached.
