I really just noticed this problem and would like a clarification.
If I have more recurring recordings scheduled for a specific time than I have tuners available, the extra recordings are simply ignored with no conflict notification. Even though some of the shows run at a later time, they are still lost.
A long time SageTV user who is having lots of timeline issues with SageTV and HDPVR 2. One of 3 recordings ends up with timelines that skip 2-3 seconds for every real second.
I need to switch to something else now that Jeffery @ SageTV left us high and dry.
Does NextPVR support extenders? I have SageTV HD200 and HD300 and need something like them on 3 rooms. I know I will have to buy new hardware so I am looking for the best PVR who old SageTV users are jumping to.
Got the latest version of NVPR, usb tv tuner is working fine etc. But when I scan the local transmitter (Nottingham) and the whole of the UK, I only get a handful of channels with poor reception. Having spent an age trying to resolve this, I gave Windows Media Centre a shot...
... and it picked up every channel PERFECTLY. Any ideas why, and how I get them in NPVR (which I wan to use with XBMC, hence I can't settle for WMC).
I just installed NextPVR on a Dell Venue 8 Pro, win 8.1.
In trying to set it up, there are no options for the various decoders.
H 264 video is set on MS DTV-DTD Video, and MPEG1 Audio is set on MS DTV-DVD Audio.
The H 264 has no option other than disable, but the MPEG1 has an option of MPEG Audio or disable.
All others are disabled, and there are no other options available.
I am using an HDHomerun Prime tuner.
I am sure it is tied in with this, but I have not been able to get any data into the Guide -- the channel scan went fine.
Hi Sub,
I am having no luck getting XMLTV episode data to populate into the npvr.db3 epg_event table season and episode columns from epgcollector
I'm running NPVR version 3.2.9 and there are no EPG guide import errors noted in the logs
I am using EPG Collector 4.1 FP21 to download the NZ Freeview DVB-T EPG data into an XML file with program season and episode data by selecting the "format of episode tag" set to "Valid season and episode numbers only".
EPG Collector is now able to collect the âSeries and Episode Numberâ data from the NZ guide for some programs; to do Series recordings, to avoid duplicate recordings and so I can watch recordings in the right order.
I dont think epgcollector/NZ use exactly the same tag data format as other ones, Steve follows the xmltv_ns tag spec per http://xmltv.cvs.sourceforge.net/xmltv/x...iew=markup line 354
The problem could be the extra space characters inside the 0 . 14 . 0/1 tag perhaps
Below is typical episode number data with the first part being the âepisodeâ and the second part being the âseries or seasonâ and the third part being the âpart number eg 0/1" and these numbers are indexed from zero

it's probably a low priority request, but it would be a nice one for me
I've been a LONG time Snapstream BTV user and actually love the program. I recently decided to switch away from BTV (my wife is not happy) because while I love it's simplicity, I have literally lost some of my sanity trying to get it stable using two of the original Hauppauge HDPVRs. I tried all the driver, power supply, cooling fan, cable box setting and USB port tricks out there to no avail. When BTV, via forum members, acquired cable card use I was happy and switched to that but the setup is a pain and it wont work with premium channels. I finally decided to leave our beloved BTV for good and switch to 100% cablecard and Windows Media Center 7. While it does work and looks pretty, I just don't like the interface and it's missing some of the DVR features of BTV. I also don't like having to use WTV files by default and being shackled by all of the DRM. So now I discovered NextPVR and am going to give it a try. After all of my blabbing I guess my main question is: How well does it work with the HDPVR2 and also does the HDPVR2 continue to have the same stability problems that the HDPVR1 had?
All I'm trying to achieve is a simple poster/info for movies in a movie folder in the Videos section. What I want is described here: http://www.nextpvr.com/nwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Manual.Video
Do you think I can get this...NO, and I don't understand why. I downloaded the Media Center Master program recommended in the link but I'm getting nothing like that image in my movie files. I notice it has several different xml file outputs and I've tried a couple but nothing shows up in the display window, even if I rename it [title].xml. I'm just trying to get what is already provided for TV shows with the MetaData header in Videos. You wouldn't think it would be this difficult but I'm apparently doing something wrong. Any ideas?
I've been working on some code to rename TV shows recorded by NPVR into a format compatible with XBMC's "Tv Show" menu.
I guess my project is probably similar to ImageGrabberLite, but it is more limited in scope & doesn't have as many features.
Still somewhat of a work in progress but I wanted to post the source code to get suggestions & feedback.
I am not including a binary file at this time, you will need to compile using Visual Studio. Also you will need to edit the App.config file and change settings to meet your needs plus insert your own TVDB API key.
In somewhat of a hurry today. I'll check back later and follow up if there is interest.
