Just want a sanity check of my understanding before I go fiddling with the EPG setup....
To Quote "- added a new 'Freesat (UK)' EPG option, which tells that app to use the existing DVB EPG functionality, but only from the Freesat EPG transponder (cutting down the time to fetch the EPG)"
Does this mean that if you select this option for a channel, that specific channel won't be scanned during OTA EPG update but it will draw its EPG from the Freesat channel that holds the full EPG (as long as that channel is selected to be scanned)?
So my shiny new HD tuner card leaves me wanting to shift all of my pending recordings from SD channels, to their HD equivalent where there is one.
Is there an easy way to update the existing recordings?
I had some idea I could be clever and delve into the database directly, but it doesnt look easy (Im happy with graphical DB tools - but my SQL ability is in its infancy!)
this is one of those bugs that's almost so inconsequential it's not worth mentioning, but I'll mention it anyway in case it's something you want to fix...
when I launch NextPVR on a computer with 2 monitors, it opens the window on the primary monitor as it should. If I then drag the window to my secondary monitor and click the maximize button (or alt-enter) it goes full-screen back on the primary monitor. I can get it to full-screen on the secondary monitor only by dragging the window to the top of the screen, wherein Windows 7 maximizes it but the title bar is retained. Of course I could click the "open on secondary monitor" checkbox, but I just as often do want it running on the primary monitor and I assume I'd have the same problem again.
what's even a little weirder is that after maximizing the window on the second monitor by dragging to the top of the screen, so the title bar is present, if I THEN click the maximize button or hit alt-enter, it does go full screen on the secondary monitor BUT a narrow ribbon of the video overlays onto the edge of the primary monitor.
for my purposes having the title bar present is no big deal so no worries if this is non-trivial to fix.
OK I have done what I vowed not to do - Here is a set of Local Channel Logos for UK Freeview TV - I don't even get Local TV!
I think I've got all of the first phase Stations apart from That's Oxford and That's Solent - cant find anything on the web to see what they look like.
I've been trying to get live tv working in xmbc and in trouble shooting discovered that my npvr client isn't working either. I can watch recorded shows in xmbc and in the npvr client. My laptop is running W8 with the most recent version of npvr on server and client. Xmbc versions 12.3 on w8 laptop, rasbmc on RPi and 12.2 on my nook hd+. Live tv won't work on any client. I turned firewall off on both the laptop and server and attempted to watch live tv with the npvr client, had to end task to get out of it, zipped logs for client and server and will attach.
PS: Also wanted to mention that at no time when testing npvr client of xmbc clients, mentioned in thread in xmbc subforum along with logs, does the tuner light come on on the dcr-2650 to indicate it is tuning a channel.
As the title says, I just discovered that my mce remote "red" button launches winTV. Anyone have this and how do I stop it from launching wintv?
Thanks.
EDIT: I found out the problem. The Hauppauge IR software was on and it was for some reason intercepting the keystroke. I wouldn't have thought that it would do this though because I wasn't using an Hauppauge remote nor receiver per se. I was using the Hauppauge MCE IR receiver though from my old PVR MCE 150.
I really love the Samsung add on. I just upgraded my NPVR and now the TV listing does not work and the recorded shows do not show up. I get the list for the recurring recordings but the rest show 0/0. Please help me with this issue.
It has been a long journey to this point. I started off with MediaPortal and found it frustratingly complicated and I gave up. Then later, for a while, my Windows Media Center was working pretty good. Since then I've had all kinds of Windows problems and had to reinstall the O/S several times. Now even scouring the web, I can find nothing to simply start from scratch except reinstall Windows again (ain't gonna happen). So now I'm trying something else over here with nextPVR and XBMC.
This seems only slightly less painful than MediaPortal so far. When I ran the software and it looked for Devices it came up with the same list as MediaPortal. It shows my primary (mislabeled) as Conexant Polaris BDA Tuner and a secondary as Tuner for Windows Media Center (I have no idea why this is here as I only have the one tuner hardware). So here's the final config:
ATSC Conexant Polaris BDA Tuner 0 Channels
QAM Conexant Poaris BDA Tuner 63 Channels
ATSC Tuner for Windows Media Center 0 Channels
QAM Tuner for Windows Media Center 63 Channels
IPTV IPTV Device 0 Channels
I tried to follow the wiki about adding an analog device, it seems to have gotten me nowhere. I cannot seem to get any channels from the analog side. However, the EPG only has data for the analog channels and the digital channels are not mapped correctly.
So I am still trying to figure out what the magic switch, config, voodoo, etc. is to get analog channels (which Windows Media Center at one time had no problems with). Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
