I had recorded The Big Bang Theory, but lost the first 4 seasons on a faulty hard drive. I would like to reset the recording history from that show so that it would record everything again. I believe that history is hidden in the database somewhere - is there something I could delete from there to have the history reset, or am I better off just setting up a recurring recording to record all shows, and then deleting that recurring recording when I am finished? I think I will run into an issue when the new season starts if I delete out the recurring recording after I've recorded what I want, but not sure...
Hi. We just upgraded our ageing TV with a brand spanking new LG Smart tv.
All is good, but when we turn on the TV in the morning the NextPVR interface is only quarter screen. It never happened on our old 720p Samsung.
I've set the resolution in NextPVR to 1920x1080, but it still happens.
I've upgraded my video drivers and upgraded my version of NextPVR to the latest.
Wifey complains and then I'm in the dog box
I can't seem to replicate the issue, so I think it's some combination of Windows going to sleep when the TV is off, and then waking up and nextPVR is trying to auto set the resolution and failing. That's a guess. I'm unsure they why it is ignoring the 1920x1080 setting.
I haven't used npvr since the gb-pvr days. I had a hauppauge wintv2-usb and it worked great.
Fast-forward to now and I want to set up my system again. I subscribe to basic cable with hbo from comcast. I can get a cablecard from them and it looks like a Hauppauge WinTV DCR-2650 would work well with my laptop. I just have a few questions:
1.Which usb cablecard-ready tuner works best with npvr? I prefer hauppauge, but I'm open to other vendors.
2.Is there still a free or cheap site where I can get tv listings to import into npvr like I did back in the day?
3.Are there DRM issues, perhaps only just with the hbo content?
A while ago, x-newa worked. Now, it doesn't but so many things have changed that I don't know why.
Windows 7 pro laptop.
Currently I am using xbmc 13.1, x-newa 2.3.0
I have NEWA, nextpvr plugin in xbmc and nDroid working correctly.
I tried disabling windows firewall, but no luck.
I have no strange ports forwarded (just 8866->8866, etc).
Hello,
I have been battling with trying to get NPVR setup for about a week and am having trouble with the webserver. I have uninstall, reinstalled, ran as admin, disabled firewall, etc. There is no weblog because the service fails to start. Here is the section from NRecord.log. Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for this question, but I read the "Read me first" but it had no link to the zip file. I then looked through the posts, and found the v2 release and downloaded the file. I then installed the add-on, enabled and configured it, but I do not know where to find it? I already have NPVR add-on up and running. I am using the latest XBMC on a Mac with default skin. Thanks.

Hi, I am using the StoreSeparateMetadataXML switch in the config.xml file to create an XML info file for each recording. I later scrape out this info and paste it into a custom database I have created to keep track of my movies.
There are some times where I "Cancel" a recording early in NEWA, after a movie is actually over but before the the time slot ends, so that I can do something in-between or before the next one starts.
For these cases, I wonder if there is something I can set, or a way I could use PostCancel.bat to trigger NPVR to create an XML on Cancel.
