My HDPVR locks up and needs to be power cycled if I shut down the service will recording. It would be nice if the exit sequence avoided this

I can't be sure if this occurred in the older version of NPVR, but, with the newest (3.29), after doing a EPG update for channels, it went through the normal process of doing whatever it is doing for 60 secs (or whatever it is) per channel, but, I glanced over to the HDhomerun, and noticed that one of the tuner LEDs were on.

The update finished, and the tuner LED is still on...which shouldn't be the case, since nothing is recording.
Doing a little digging with hdhomerun_config_gui it appears the last station that tuner was using was 116, and that channel is encrypted.

I overrode it, and turned that tuner off manually, before NPVR had a chance to use it, since I had no idea if it would record, or would it just try another tuner...

Right now, NPVR is recording and that tuner again, so all is well on that side.

Search didn't turn up anything, so, not sure if this is a bug, or a one time glitch or what...

The thread at http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?55438-CI-Cam

leads to another potential supplier of DVB-T2 devices. I know nothing about them except that they exist (and that they seem a tad expensive).

Will NextPvr support my DVB-C - TV card with common interface ( CI/CAM ) from the supplier Digital Device ?

I have tried this before with my Terratec DVB-C-CI/Cam without any success,

If possible, a switch that would allow me to keep all the settings that were established for a recurring recording, but simply turn off the actual recording of the shows until I switch it back on again. Some times I get too many recordings of a specific show and I have to cancel (delete) the info, but then after the shows have been watched I have to re-establish the settings again to record more.

When I synchronize time with NTP server on Win7, can this produce glitch in ts file?

In Settings : Devices I was trying to get back to a fresh install and I deleted one of the ATSC tuners.

How do I add it back?

I also am having trouble setting up mc2xml in the current version.

The numbered list doesn't seem to match the current version.

Please help.

thanks,

For the recordings API is there a way to indicate default padding or does a client have to set it specifically (ie sending -1)

Can't get DVBT to work through XBMC. I posted about this a few months ago, but at the time it didn't always work directly in NPVR either, but with the latest NPVR update this seems to have changed

Just tried again with XBMC but this still doesn't connect to the radio. I can see NPVR recording the stream, but XBMC just hangs with it's 'working' popup.

Ripped a dvd. sound is distorted (when top of dynamic range) in MP4 and avi format Sounds clean on vlc but not through NPVR.

What playback system is used? I think it is native windows, but sounds clean with windows media player too.

Can anybody help?
