I've recently started using the "NextPVR for Samsung" app, as well as messing around with NEWA. When I open port 8866 in the firewall on the NPVR server both NEWA and the Samsung app are able to connect at first, but eventually the connections get blocked. This happens even if I disable the firewall. If I do a full shutdown on the computer and then restart it, it will usually accept connections for a while.

A couple of days ago I uninstalled Avast from the NPVR server and that seems to have fixed the problem. From my searches on the web, it looks like the Network Shield in Avast might be stopping NPVR from streaming. Has anyone else seen this problem and found a way around it?

Thanks,

Can it be done?

Hi,

Has anyone considered the security of the TinyURLs in NEWA? Are they created on demand when a webpage is viewed, or for every recording in the library in advance?

Is there a way to switch them off? I like the idea, but I'd rather it be done by the NEWA server on my machine and not an external service (e.g. http://<myip>:2846/Tiny.aspx?<small_url>). I worry about links to my webserver on public sites.

Thanks for advice

I've just reset everything back up after our house burnt down to the ground in May. Our new house is built on our same lot and I decided to set back up the htpc yesterday. Everything works well except the channels won't map to the schedules direct channels as before. They stay with the scanned number instead of the real channel numbers. I've retried 3 times but it's still the same.

Win7 Ultimate , NPVR 3.1.1 with r1 patch. Is there a special trick to map the channels for the guide?

Thanks,

I wish a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all with the hope that 2014 brings you all peace and happiness.

I updated to 3.1.1 with the R1a patches installed. Whenever I try to watch Live TV, I'm getting a communication error.

I'm using a PVR-500 analog tuner. Any assistance would be appreciated. I have attached the logs.[ATTACH=CONFIG]37702[/ATTACH]

Searching for the following error in the log did not produce any solutions.

Hello there

Try this experiment.
start up nextPVR and press f2 for Live TV
press ctrl-k to start recording
Press escape to get out of live TV and go back to the main menu.
Then exit nextPVR, be careful you don't close the NDigitalHost.exe process
Open firefox and go into the newa interface.
Click manage recordings and then click on either panel view or table view.
Now click the name of the program you're recording, this should open a new window.
When I click on cancel recording, the window closes, but the recording won't stop.
Is this what happens on your machines?
I'm using the latest version of NextPVR with the -r1a patch.
Thanks.

I decided to revisit ndroid after jumping on the initial release.

Very happy to see transcode settings and smooth transition to MPlayer but my problem remains the same:

Despite allowing the "ndroid service" through Windows7 Firewall as well as setting "specific ports" in "advanced settings" the ONLY way nDroid works is with Windows firewall "OFF" (for both LAN and WAN).
Brian, you've done great work with this app and I know you are not a "Windows Firewall" expert. I'd love to put this to use but there must be away to correct my configuration so that the firewall can be "ON".
There is a D-Link modem in the mix but I believe it to be set right.
I can be watching a stream, then turn on firewall, and after the appropriate delay the client hangs.
btw:NEWA runs like charm(with firewall ON).
Is there a DNLA setting or rule that I'm missing?
Can anybody help me out?

one other bug:
my designsted "Music" folder(very large) won't load even after waiting hours but if I create a single album folder, that loads (populates).

When I start Nextpvr, the attached errors are provided (page 1). I then right click on the Nextpvr icon at the bottom of the screen to close all windows and the error goes away. The Nextpvr blue screen appears (Page 2). When I try to use live TV or other functions then the same error appears (page 3).

Also uninstalled and reloaded Nextpvr. Did not help.

Help and thanks,

John

I use OpenELEC on Intel NUC i3. Sometimes when I'm playing videos it just stops and returns to where I was. After that, I play the video again and it resumes from where I stopped. I tried many different videos and the problem keeps happening. I had a Raspberry Pi before I got the NUC and the same problem used to happen. I can't figure it out. Please help!!!
