I just updated to the latest version, and I ran into an odd problem.
In the guide, I selected quick record, and normally, that would show the channel in question as red.
However, in this case, the guide had (no show info) or whatever it says... [didn't have any EPG guide data] well, anyway, it didn't change to red.
The recording *was* being done though, as confirmed by the status window, and also the file on the HD.

I wanted to cancel it, and... there was no option to do that, since as far as the guide was concerned, there was no recording going on.
So, I had a run away recording going on, and the only way to stop it was to turn off the service.
That made the recording stop. Restarted the service, and the recording went on recording. It just didn't want to die.
The guide still didn't show anything for that channel, and status was still showing recording.

So, how do you stop this type of thing from going on, if this happens again ?

And, before you can ask for logs, I thought it might have been a artifact from the old version of npvr, so I nuked all data without thinking about saving the logs.

I have three DVB-S tuners in this PC, 2xHVR-3000's & 1x HVR-4000, I have set them up with one transponder/mux per card (to avoid loosing padding on recordings) (apart for C4 which is enabled on all three cards).... I can watch live TV off all three transponders, but when I go to setup a recording from TV3 & another recording from Prime (or vies-versa) I get the old no tuner available do you want to cancel message.... which is a tad weird as TV3 is on one of the hvr-3000's & Prime is on the hvr-4000??? logs attached

Is there any way to add to, or change the name of an existing genre?

I realize there are quite a few of them already, but I would like to use one for "Premiere"s of new shows.

I will modify the XML to accomodate the new tag.

Thanx!

Installed ImageGrabLite using the installer. Every time I try to start it from the command line to make sure it works, I get an error saying the program is closing. It does it with ou without parameters.

Anyone knows what could be the source of the problem ?

Thanks !

Have recently downloaded and installed NextPvr having given up on Splash Lite.

When I try to scan for devices I get the following message:

"Unmanaged.dll" and HRESULT:0X800736B1

I am using a Hauppauge USB dongle (900 series) on a Dell XPS pc running Vista Home Premium edition.

Can anyone help?

I've had this problem for years now but it's bugging me at the moment.

I have a KVM connected to two machines. Everything is fine except for the mouse. I use a Logitech wireless multi-button mouse and in particular I make a lot of use of the scroll wheel and a button on the side which acts like the "Back" button when using a web browser.
The problem is, when I switch the KVM between machines, the mouse signal is dropped then re-established with the result it seems to be re-configured as a generic PS/2 compatible mouse and I lose the scroll wheel and special function buttons.

So the question is, is there an easy command-line way of telling windows to re-scan PnP devices in the way it does at startup so it will load the Logitech driver? I tried going to Device Manager and getting it to update the driver but all it does is search for a newer PS/2 compatible driver rather than detect the mouse correctly. If I uninstall the driver it tells me I have to restart (which defeats the object as a restart will find the mouse as a Logitech one and load the correct driver).

Cheers,
Brian

selecting/searching channels is very tedious without proper filters.

Scanned Astra 19.2E, full, not "german" only. Still cannot see certain station like most HD publich channels, arte HD, 3sat HD, Das Erste HD etc. others like ZDF HD are there, so in general it's working, but not fully.
Pointers appreciated. My other HTPC box scanned with the same dish/quadLNB, got them all.

I did an upgrade to 3.11 R1 a and now NextPVR no longer responds to IR commands. The mouse and keyboard still work. Nothing else has changed on the system.

I use a Harmony remote and Intelliremote software to control things. This has always worked and it still works for everything else (Plex, MediaBrowser, etc). I can have NextPVR in a window and Intelliremote in a window - I can see the IR commands get being received but NPVR isn't doing anything with them. I've unchecked/restarted/checked/restarted telling NPVR to handle MCE remote events.

I've attached the dedug log although I don't think it shows much of anything:

I'm at a loss for what else I can try. I have uninstalled the software and reinstalled but I can't get NextPVR to respond to any IR commands.

Recently I installed Windows 8.1 64 bit Pro with Media Center on my Desktop Computer.

Little did I know, in doing so - I would discover the Windows Media Center for Windows 8.1 has the following problems with my Diamond TVW750USB ATI Theater HD 750 USB TV Tuner:
1. It cannot find approx. 40% of the QAM stations available with my Time Warner basic TV cable connection.
2. The analog stations break up about every other second.

Unfortunately, the only resolution MS has provided was to reinstall Windows 7 on my computer.

Since then, I installed the Totalmedia 3.5 program that came with the DVD that was included with my TV Tuner. But, while it does work well, I have discovered it capabilities is extremely limited. Not to mention, the program is over 5 years old and is no longer supported. ... I also discovered any TV shows recorded (which in does in mpg format) can only be played in Totalmedia.

In contacting Diamond support - they recommended installing NextPVR. They told me your program works quite well with this tuner.

However, I am a non-techie type of person. ... The more simple something is to use, the better I usually like it.
In reviewing the instructions I have be able to locate - it seems getting live tv to work with my tuner card is a complex ordeal.

Could someone please explain to me in simplified terms how to set up Nextpvr so I could utilize both the digital and analog tuners on my Diamond TVW750USB ATI Theater HD 750 USB TV Tuner?

Thanks. :confused:
