I have started to get strange behavior via NMT.... strange screen color randomly appearing....looks like a monitor with the cable not seated correctly...
Never saw this type of error before.....
Any ideas?

My ISP insists on putting my STB to sleep after 3-4 hours, with no way to disable it.
Would it be possible to periodically send the escape button or something via either my hauppauge IR blaster, or one of the dedicated ones?
Basically just need a null key press, and for NPVR to be aware of the fact that every X hours, the STB will go to sleep, so if it's been more than X, and less than Y until the next scheduled keypress (for next recording, whatever) then it should send a null key press.
Or have functionality to bring it out of sleep (need to hit OKAY) if it's been more than 3 hours since a channel was last tuned.
My system worked perfectly in the past but now after the upgrade in October is seems to act up. There may be a correlation with "sleep" as well. The system use to go to sleep and wake up as needed but now it never sleeps even though Windows has been told to do so after 2 hours of inactivity. While this may be related to various other applications there is another problem that may be related. After forcing the "sleep" button, it seems that recording and playback are messed up. With regards to playback, the video will not play correctly and the times below the progress bar are irrational and have negative values.
I have also notices that on occasion a program will state it is an hour long but stops after 15 minutes. This may be in part to the OTA signal being dropped for maintenance (this is happening frequently around 12:15 am)
If anyone else has seen similar problems let me know
I have run NexPVR before and noticed that NextPVR groups shows into a hierarchy for recordings in XBMC. Click on a show and episodes appear under it. A very nice feature.
Since I am a long time WMC user, I am thinking of using it instead since there is a PVR add on for it. No offense all to NextPVR as it is a fantastic effort.
I have been a developer from everything from DBase II all the way through to Java and C#.
I am trying to help out with the development of the WMC PVR. WMC PVR is up and running except for a few features.
Hopefully I can get just a little help here to get us started.
I would like to know how to make the Recordings show in a hierarchical listing. similar to NextPVR addon in XBMC. The WMC PVR stores it's files in a flat directory. There are no sub-directories for each series. Any tips on how to make XBMC see the structure as a hierarchy?
I have played with the strDirectory of PVR_RECORDING with no luck.
I have posted on the developer's forum in XBMC with no luck. Hoping someone here would share a little knowledge. It would be nice to know where the PVR Addon API is documented. It does not appear to be documented in the developer wiki
Put this card in and so far have been able to get it to detect a single ATSC tuner for it. My understanding was that it could record and play simultaneously.
Attached a copy of my filtercheck log(I do have another single tuner ATI 650 PCI in the system also, accounting for the other ATSC tuner it can see)
I've attached another updated Windows build of the Gotham addon. Main change in this update is provide more options while setting up a recurring recording.
Summary of changes since Frodo release:
Quote:- added dialog to set recurring recordings, including recurrence type, padding, number of recordings to keep, and recording directory
- added support for EDL (though not currently called by XBMC)
- added support for retrieving and storing last playback position
- now requires NextPVR 3.1.1 or higher
- fixed a bug that could cause an EPG event with no description to have a copy of last show's description, or cause a crash if the user was unlucky.
- more flexible approach to genre
I'm just getting started with Vidimport.
Looks like it should do the job for me.
However, I am getting an error on some of my files.
If you look at the attached XML file, "Sister Act", "Criminal Minds", etc. have their NAME field filled in with the name of the import directory, and their SUBTITLE field filled with the actual filename.
I even tried renaming one of them before running Vidimport but that didn't help.
As of the end of Jan we are going to go to OTA tv and what we might be able to get off our slow internet, yes we live in the country and the nearest OTA stations are around 25 miles away and from the same direction, there is 8 of them but I think we'll only be able to get 4 from what I have learned so far,
Anyway I was hoping some of you can get me started in the right direction on what to get and how to go about it all,
I have a OTA ant on a 25' pole and another one I can add if needed, I got all of this when I first moved here back in 2002, zip code is 72070, I have several computers to use and have windows 7 any flavor you want or need, I repair computers for extra money, self taught, I am Disable on SSD and broke more than not, lol, can get around good enough to do chit but not all at onetime, I have limits, my brain is the only thing that works most of the time,
I don't mind people contacting of group but i think until I see whats in here, have not look around as of yet, maybe that in group is best, as others can see what has been suggested and what I have asked and tried to learn so far,
Oh, I/we have Direct but can't afford the changing prices that we see almost every month, if they would of stayed at the $32 buck a month I would be ok, one month it is that or the next over a $100 and we don't do anything but watch the same shows and have no xtra chit, just the very basic plan, the service is good, but the lies and mis-information is not worth the calls and time it takes every month to keep it, besides I need the money now for food and insurance and medical bills, lol
Ok, hope I said enough so you get an ideal of my needs and not to much to turn you away from helping or suggesting things,
Poppa Rob and Miss Linda thank you for the time and advice,
Trying to get this set up. I'm a refugee from Snapstream and I bought a colossus to get HD recordings off my DirecTV H21-200 set top box.
However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to get my directv channel lineup and how to change channels using my hauppauge remote (unless there's a way to do it using a serial connection like I was doing with beyondtv.
Is there a guide out there to set up directv with my colossus and hauppauge remote? Any help would be appreciated!
I have installed the ndroid client on an asus TF700T, and is working great. However i also have installed it on my phone (HTC Velocity) and ran into problems. I assume i entered some incorrect server information because it keeps showing the rotating circle, and never comes out of this (a time out would be desirable). No matter how long i wait it only shows me the rotating circle, even after restarting the phone, so i did uninstall the app, but now i can't install it anymore from Google play, and shows me error 927 ? What can be done to resolve this ? The app needs a proper exit if no connection can be made, instead of an endless loop of trying without being able to interfere this process !
