I currently use MP but I am considering using NEXT PVR instead. The thing that is appealing is the support for MB3 as a front end but I was wondering what else is better/ worse? For instance I cant seem to find if there is any Iplayer/4od plug ins? I also like the recording scheduler in MP how is it in NPVR?

My current set up is dvb-s2 dual tuners, radio times EPG and I have a client pc and a NOWTV box as well as an Xbox 360 (which is probably irelavent!)

thanks

A couple of nrecord.log logs attached. I'm guessing that something is killing off the web server in npvr ??? a stop/start of the npvr service does no help. The only way out seems to be a reboot of the server. (The tablet ndroid still seems to be working)

Any thoughts on what may be getting upset??

thanks

Hi,
using NPVR 3.2.9, no specific hotfixes. I am using an Anysee DVB-C tuner connected to the UPC network in the Netherlands. I (have to) get my tranponderlist from the internet as UPC does not allow scanning for some reason. I always use some up-to-date lists for Anysee CNO tool, which I convert with a script I wrote to NVPR format. This worked fine until now. The list contains 38 transponders. When scanning, on one of them I get a NPVR application error on several modules, sometimes MSVCR110.dll, sometimes ntdll.dll and I've seen kernel32.dll as well.

Now when I create a new ini file and leave that specific transponder out everyting is ok. If I then make yet another file with only that one transponder in, it scans fine as well. What could be up?

I've attached the NPVR log and the WER log for one of the crashes. I also attached the full ini file although it's not of much use I think, number 18 is the one that crashes NPVR.EXE on my system / network / cable. If you want additional log files just ask. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I've recently installed NextPVR 3.2.9 on a Lenovo Thinkcentre running Windows 8.1 (up to date) 64 Bit.

I've installed the full DirectX Runtime and NextPVR current patches.

I'm using a Kaisser Baas USB dual TV stick (which is working fine on another PC running windows media center on windows 7).

When I attempt to scan for channels from the Settings/Devices/Device Setup menu windows crashes with a BSOD - attached are the log files.

If anybody has any ideas I'd appreciate it!

Is there a way to get the picture url/path sent/pushed to XBMC's EPG database?

As I understand NextPVR's add-on is "feeding" XBMC's EPG database with some info but not the URL/path of the pictures it downloads. Or could I use a XMLTV file directly in XBMC? I think Tvheadend has this future.

Thanks

NextPVR worked fine.
I'm using an ISCSI disk for backup, using the microsoft ISCSI initiator, the disk does not have a drive letter
No other application or service is supposed to use the backup disk

Whenever the server that provides the ISCSI target is down and the ISCSI inititator on the NextPVR machine is trying to reconnect, strange things happen

After starting NextPVR it is possible to play music or films.
But when going to recordings or the guide screen NextPVR locks up and never becomes responsive again.

Logs are attatched. Seems the database is accessable, no error messages

Now I have completely stopped the ISCSI initiator, after removing all ISCSI references and still NextPVR locks up when trying to access the guide or the recordings panel.

Anyone with a suggestion on what to try next????

Hi, I would really appreciate some advice with the error message I am getting "Unable to communicate with recording service.

I am desperatley trying to move away from MCE and NextPVR looks great and in fact once I get it working I intend using it as the backend for XBMC. However I came unstuck today and after three hours of testing / trying and reading I am still having no luck.

The EPG downloads fine, I scanned and can see all my channels. I know my tv card works as MCE can see and play the channels.

So based on this and all the reading I have done I am assuming it must be a decoder issue.

I have tried all the various decoder options and still no luck.

I have also tried the following - and had no luck:

- Ran NextPVR as administrator
- Checked and allowed NextpVR program through my firewall
- I temperorily disabled my virus pgm and firewall and tested it - no luck


Can anyone help me fault find please as I am very keen to get the PVR working

Thanks in advance

Kind regards

Gary

hello!
just wondering whether changing channel names or the number of a channel will affect recordings already scheduled, or when you rename / number them, does some check take place to update that new info in the scheduled recordings database?
Thanks,
John

Hi,

I am building a new HTPC and was wondering if a new modern 5400 rpm hdd is fast enough or if I need hdds with 7200rpm?

The disk I am looking at is?

It need to handle multiple recordings also in HD. The provider I am using is DVB-S Canal Digital in Sweden.

Hi,

Is there a single-button available to record/stop current recording?

Currently Ctrl-K would prompt a manual recording menu. But I want it to start recording immediately--until I hit say the stop button again.

Thx.
