Based on what I've been reading eg http://missingremote.com/news/2015-01-13...-users-rej if you are using CableCard devices there is new firmware to allow a few more channels that previously have been blocked as Copy Once.
I noticed in the latest version of NPVR that episode number is no longer present in the event_detail column in the scheduled_recording table. Was this change intentional? I believe the episode number was present in the previous version although it was rarely accurate (not NPVR's fault though). Anyways, I was just curious, thanks.
Here's an example from the scheduled_recording table:

I use the built in DVD player and I have it set to the LAV decoded but when I play DVDs they come out as PCM stereo and not Dolby 5.1 (when they support it of course). Is this right or do I have some fiddling to do?
hello all,
does anyone know if there's a way to tell npvr to just update the epg listings for channels set as TVXML... sometimes I need to update just those channels I've set to import from a local file, and the only option I can find updates the whole list, using a tuner to rescan the OTA stuff too.... it can be a command line call if there's not a GUI way of doing it?
When opening NPVR I get the black screen, right click brings up content menu & all functions there work perfectly. Reading through the keyboard preferences I'm unable to bring up the What's New screen or any other features available when I first downloaded the program---less than 6 weeks ago.
Hi,
I have setup Next PVR server and i can successfully watch TV fine on the host, but clients cannot stream anything.
I am using the NextPVR addon on the latest Raspberry pi XBMC build. The error I get when i try to stream any channel is "Tuner no longer availabile"
Things I have tried:
2 different Raspberry pi's running XBMC
2 different hosts with NextPVR installed
turn off firewall
Install X-NEWA addon in XBMC (this was suggested as a fix when i googled the issue
I should preface this by saying that I've spent about 3 hours trying to get my HD PVR 2 to change the channels of my Cisco 4642 box (which uses IR). I was unable to even do it in WinTV. There's a BlastCfg.exe from WinTV and I tried to let it automatically scan for the right codeset, tried to choose my cableco from the presets list as well as several similar boxes, let it learn the IR codes from my remote (which, by the way, would fail regularly and would often cause the BlastCfg program to crash). I see all the lights blinking on the blaster and I'm *pretty sure* I know where the IR sensor is on my cable box, but the channels never change.
Admittedly this seems like a Hauppauge issue, but their tech support is closed and I don't think I'll be around the house to call them anytime this week. But I wanted to ask you guys what is required to get the IR blaster to work in NextPVR. There's a HaupBlast.exe file in the installation directory, but there is no setup that I can find. Does this interface with a file that is created / stored via Hauppauge? If so, which one? Is getting a working config in BlastCfg.exe a necessity for the blaster to work in NextPVR? Thanks in advance.
I am running nextPVR as a backend to Kodi. I've enabled timeshifting on the Kodi clients and can now record.
My nextPVR has set MyRecordings to be stored in a shared directory on my server D:\OurMdeia\RecordedTV.
Recording from the Kodi clients place the shows in the right place but, they are not visible in Kodi until I exit Kodi and restart it.
Hello all. I just started using (or at least started setting up) NextPVR with my HD PVR 2 and have run into a few snags. One of them is that when I choose HDMI for the video source and RCA L/R for the audio source, every time I return to the device setup, the audio has been switched back to HDMI audio.
Ideally, I'd love to use HDMI audio and preserve all 5.1 audio, but any time the audio signal momentarily drops out or changes to stereo, the HD PVR 2 kinda freaks out (glitches, stops recording, freezes, etc). Over the past year, I've realized that I get 100% reliable recordings through Hauppauge Capture by using 2-channel RCA audio, so I'd prefer to use this in NextPVR as well.
Any idea if this is a known problem?
The other problem is getting the channels to change via the IR blaster, but I guess I'll have to look into that more because I assume somewhere I need to actually enter in my cable box model number. If there's a quick guide on this for the HD PVR 2, feel free to send a link my way. Thanks.
