Since I updated to the latest version, the program information displayed during pause on playback won't go away. I messed around with OSDTimeoutInfoOnPause, but it doesn't matter, it just stays on the screen.
Most of the time it wouldn't matter, but it makes it hard to read Chuck Lorre's vanity cards.
I dunno, because I'm a new recruit. I downloaded and set up XBMC, then chose and installed NextPVR as my back end, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to configure it. I assume it's from within XBMC since it's an add-on, but can't seem to find the right menu item. :confused: You'd never know I was an IT manager in a former life. Could someone point me in the right direction? Hate being a n00b.
I recently updated from Win 7 to Win 8.1. I'm not sure if it is related or not, but I get an error when I try to use NEWA (even using localhost with a port number on my nPVR computer). The error is:

I've tried stopping my firewall and re-installing NEWA again using the development build on the web site. Anyone have suggestions on what to try next?

I have a clean install of windows 7 pro 32 bit.
running the most recent 3.2.9 just downloaded.
I have a hauppague colossus card as the only tuner.
I am running composite video from an att uverse box into the card.
I have previous files on this machine that were recorded by gbpvr as well as some tv shows in mp4 and a few other file types.
I am not using the epg, nor am I setting it to record anything by time. I straight up just play a show and set it to record for 15 min to an hour or whatever the show is.
problem 1
no shows play back. even current recordings. it shows stuck on 0:00 with 0:00 remaining.
I tried changing encoders, but that doesn't seem to help.
I tried restarting between changes too but I just get the black screen.
the system still responds and I can back out and select something else, but none of them play.
even a recent recording I made with the latest software does the same thing.
I launched these all with windows media player and they all play fine.
problem 2.
no audio on live tv. however the recordings have audio and I can hear it just fine.
Now, I had to play the files back using windows media player due to problem 1, but I can hear the audio just fine.
I even shared them to another machine and they too played just fine with audio.
problem 3
can't cancel once you set something to record.
that pop up window for setting up a recording cannot be canceled out of. the cancel button doesn't seem to do anything.
I tried it with the remote and I tried it with a mouse click. it just sticks unless I say record.
finally 2 questions
old gbpvr let you set a recording by an amount of time rather than clock time.
does that still exist? is there a setting I can change?
does old gbpvr work on windows 7 with the colossus card? incase I can't figure this out.
Is this possible? When scheduling several recordings they are not always assigned to the same tuner if they are an the same mux, which then causes conflicts that npvr doesn't warn about (by design because it doesn't take padding into account) so recordings get cut off.
The only way I can see to do this is manually edit npvr.db3. Would that work? I'll test it tomorrow when the tunner isn't busy but in the mean time if anyone knows.
If that is the only way I'd love a gui option to manually assign tuners to recording. Overlaying the assigned tunner in the epg would be cool too so you can see at a glance they are assigned as you like.
Recently upgraded to 3.2.9 and it's working perfect, thank you
OK, I have a little more time on my hands than I had before. I am not sure, but I suspect, McBainUK may have moved onto different shores. It was his work that created what I think is a fairly solid wiki.
But times are a changing.
sub (as usual!) progresses NextPVR and so some wiki pages need some changes.
I say don't all shout at once. History shows you won't all shout at once anyway
I have no idea if even anyone is bothered by this (changes to wiki pages).
But if anyone was bothered about wiki page changes
I have used guideplus for over a year, and have noticed problems creeping up over the past month. I'm not sure if it's the number of recordings I have in the database (approaching 1000), or just the fact that certain shows are giving it headaches. For the past 3 nights, the epgupdate is pulling a new main file, but the guidepus update doesn't complete. Before this, I would notice the updated xml would show a date / time of 3 hours + after the original xml.
Firewall is off. Not sure what else I can have active on my machine to make this problem. I am currently running guideplus from the command prompt, and this is the exception that I get time after time:
I've not had any luck getting XNEWA to setup recurring recordings. The most substantial issue is that when I try to setup a recurring recording of NEW episodes, a dialog box pops up that an error has occurred. If I change it to any other option (like record all episodes), I don't get an error, but the recording is not actually scheduled. I've included my XBMC log from an attempt to do both those things. The first attempt starts around line 834 (that's a recurring recording of new episodes), and the second attempt is just after that (a recurring recording of all episodes).
Also, XNEWA sets the default pre-padding to 2 minutes even though I have pre (and post) padding defaulted to 1 minute in the NPVR settings.
As some additional information, if I use the XBMC EPG with the NPVR enhanced dialog for Confluence, I seem to have more success with recordings (although I still have some specific challenges, but I'll post those separately). The pre and post padding also both show 1 minute as I would expect.
