Dear all,

I could swear that this worked, but at the moment, when I record something e.g. 90 minutes long in order
to start watching it 15 minutes shifted, the playback will be interrupted after when playback reaches the
hypothetical end of the file at the time of start of playback (in this example 15 minutes). Then, when I 
playback again (there is the option to restart at the playback break), it will run again until the hypothetical 
end (in this example roughly 30 minutes).

Do I mix up with tvheadend, which I used before or did that work in the past with NextPVR? 

BR,
Carsten.

Hi, Support,

I am trying a new install/config of NextPVR version 6.1.5.231022 on Windows 11, and trying to set up the IPTV Device to use my IPTV provider data.  Everything seems to go OK (channels load properly, EPG updates properly, etc.) but when I try to view streams on the server and the supplied client, all I can get is the error Streaming failed. (transcoder exiting).  I have tried to do all of the more obvious configuration settings (implemented and activated LAV decoders, etc.) but nothing seems to work for me.  Would you take a quick look at my log files, and see if you can give me some guidance on how to correct this error?  Thanks in advance for your prompt response to my request.   lm32692

Currently I have these two remotes up & running

https://www.amazon.com/BuzzTV-ARQ-100-Wi...40&sr=8-44

https://www.amazon.com/Dupad-MX3-Wireles...DYV2/?th=1

(the second one isn't really in contention as the keys are on the small side & a bit too close together to be easy to use) but it does have the four skip buttons as the first one only has two of them.

Firstly I am trying to figure out what should work in uidroid as I have some combinations that I use daily & have used for close to 20 years that I can't seem to use currently.

On the wiki in recordings it says "Skip xx minutes/seconds" "Number +", Number + what?

Secondly is it possible to page a screen at a time sideways in the TV Guide?
There are a number of keys that page up & down but I can't find anything for sideways.

You (Martin that is) also mentioned somewhere that there is a way to customise keys, this could be useful for that first remote as it has lots of keys that are not being used currently & some like 'Guide' that don't do what they say.

Hey everybody,

Is there a particular upgrade path / moving configuration files, etc. possible from a pi4 running bullseye to a pi5 that runs mx23.3 which itself is called "a respin of Raspberry Pi OS with a MX setup and tool set "?

Is it a matter of copying certain configuration files, or is it better to do a clean install and then configure everything, adding schedulesdirect info, etc. ?

I don't see why it should be related to changing routers, but that is the timing of when NPVR stopped recording or playing live TV. I have 2 SD Homerun tuners and both are shown in NPVR status. The status also shows recording happening. But the result is a 0 byte file. When I try to play live TV it simply fails after a little while of trying.

BTW I can play live TV from either of the tuners using the HD Homerun interface on the same windows computer, so the problem appears to be on the NPVR end.

Thanks for looking.

Hello Martin,

Moving my question from Kodi to here on your suggestion. I can't figure out how to grab files from the Onn box but I've enabled every log I can and see no errors when the live tv goes through a buffer. NPVR logs from 4PM on WTOC are where I was most recently seeing the issue. Again, it's only on these Onn boxes that I experience it. I've tried wireless, wired with a FireTV network dongle. The PC and the Onn device are on the same switch, in the same room. 

 Howdy folks,

So while watching JEOPARDY MASTERS (which is now erased) at the 58 minute mark of playback, would have the android playback app completely stop. Running on a Fire Cube client. Tried to switch to same hardware but now a KODI client and getting failure of playback at same location (58 minutes) of a 60 minute recording. 

Otherwise everything works fine. I erased the faulty recordings so not sure that I have any error file to look at. 

1). Should I make a series of 70 minute recordings and see if playback works fine?  

2) should I try remapping the recording directory to a PLEX directory, and trying playing recordings with PLEX?  

3). Should I not FAST FORWARD to the end of a recording to play it, as that can cause playback issues ?  

Have read in other discussions that each of these suggestions have been speculated on.

I have an issue with a certain set of channels not recording/playing back with a timeout error, however they play fine with other applications. These are 4K channels and some of them do have HLG HDR enabled so I am not sure if that is an issue. I was just wondering if you had any idea what could be causing this.
I have included the logs to help

TIA

When viewing the guide and you select a program to see the information on the program, it would be great if on that part information on cast / actors could be displayed as often programs and films contain this information.

I encountered a problem the other day when I recorded a program that had an exclamation mark in its title.
The recording was fine, but my postprocess.bat didn't like it.

The folder and filenames looked like:
D:\NextPVR_recordings\Bushwacked!\Bushwacked!.S03E03.ext

but the batch file was reading the path as  
D:\NextPVR_recordings\Bushwacked.S03E03.ext and thought that  !\Bushwacked! was a variable.  Clearly it fell over from that point on.

I guess the fix is to copy %1 into a variable and go from there, but my code uses various forms of extended parameters %~dpnx throughout so I'd have to create multiple variables for each form used.
Just wondering if there is a setting somewhere that will force NextPVR to use "Windows_Friendly" characters in folder and filenames like the yt-dlp option :
