Whilst I have configured the settings for audio/video in as far as next pvr plays live tv with sound, I cannot get it to record anything. If I click to record, it looks like it is (the program in the guide changes to red) but there is never anything in the recorded tv folder. I have set the folder, so it should be where I am looking.
I actually first noticed the problem (its a new install) via xbmc - that shows the program in the recorded programs list, but doesn't play, so working back I got down to just next pvr which presumably is where the fault lies.
Hi
I'm a complete newbie with nextpvr
What info do you need - other than the logs.
Please help me get the live tv and recording working.
I get the Guide and sound on live tv ok. Loads of channels found.
I have NextPVR and XVMC on a HTPC and am getting a pretty poor experience (nPVR works fine, but channel changes through XBMC take forever and XBMC LiveTV frequently hangs), would like to troubleshoot/get to grips with it.
My computer is set to hibernate. It wakes up 90 seconds (the default <WakeupPreRecordingSeconds>) before a scheduled recording, and hibernates about 10 minutes after the recording has finished. Usually it works perfectly, but sometimes the recording fails with the "Recording service not running at recording time" message.
As I figured out, it happens when hibernation occurs during that 90 seconds (about 10 minutes after a previous recording or other user activity on the computer). So, if the computer is already on at the wakeup time and the hibernation timer expires within the following 90 seconds just before the recording starts, then the computer hibernates and the recording fails.
I think the recording service or something else should prevent hibernation already during this period, but it does not. It is clearly shown by powercfg -requests, that there are no requests in this period. The request (SYSTEM: [DRIVER] Legacy Kernel Caller) appears only when the recording starts.
Any idea / suggestion / solution? Or did I miss something? Strange, that nobody else experienced this.
(ps. I think this is not specific to the version 3.1.1, it happened with 2.6.2 too.)
I have two cards, the 1600 and 1255, having the same problem with both. I have the latest WinTV7 installed with the drivers, also have latest NextPVR installed on both pc's.
Setup a recording last night on the WinTV, the tuner was fine when I did it. Woke up this morning and it did not record. Checked WinTV and it said no tuner available. NVR said the same. Noticed the NVPR system tray icon was red, indicating it was recording. Although had not set up any recordings with it. Checked the record folder and there were no recordings
I restarted the NVR recording service and the tuner returned in WinTV and NPVR. This has happened the last few nights on both cards
Is there a conflict between NVPR and WinTV with the newest Hauppauge drivers?
XBMC can't get any channel in live tv come the zero
this problem happen after update nextpvr
who to make XBMC Get the channels
and what the problem !! https://www.dropbox.com/s/zgc3ehjrc73pi7...t003.png?m
Zero channel !!
How can i solve the problem
Thanks a lot
Has now started DVB-T.
Cannot select EPG, only have Live 2Hr update, as channel is not listed under Mapping choice.
Is there an easy way to change this?
I just started trying to get me wife more involved with NextPVR and so far it is an epic failure since NRecord is marking recordings on her show as failed I have several examples that have a similar pattern.

and the Timing.Info is ok

It is possible even likely it that this is caused by me forgetting to turn of the Full TS write and the failure is not on the file itself but on the full file not being written. I want to give it another shoot tomorrow but after two days like this she is less than impressed so sub do you think this is related to FullTS?
Last week in my town Charter switched to all digital, killing my QAM and Analog channels.
I switched to ATSC OTA channels because that's all I wanted to watch anyway and I'm not about to start paying $40 a month to get the channels I was already getting for free.
While reconfiguring I updated to the latest NextPVR version. Now, I can tune in the channels successfully with NextPVR and have the service mapped successfully through XBMC, but for some reason I cannot record. No quick recording or scheduled recordings work. I receive no error messages. I've attached what I think are the appropriate logs. I am no expert, they may contain something telling. Anyone got any ideas?
My card is an AVerMedia H826 Hybrid TV BDA Tuner
Some notes:
NextPVR allows me to watch another channel even though it acts like it's recording.
I checked to make sure my recording directory exists and the folder has full permissions.
System date and time matches npvr
I'm testing all of this directly in the npvr UI, I am aware of XBMCs current shortcomings with scheduling recordings

NPVR Log: http://pastebin.com/aK8KpAuY
After installing Windows 8.1 my HTPC has been refusing to sleep on its own - It would from the remote.
Finally discovered that during the update Windows had set up and joined a Homegroup and was busy broadcasting to the Lan (Lan is set up as a Workgroup). This was enough to stop timed sleep from starting.
Went to Homegroup settings and left the homegroup then disabled the 2 Homegroup services (and also the Windows Media Network sharing service while I was about it). Finally Computer now does to sleep after 30 mins as set.
Also had to reinstall the unattended sleep timeout reg key again.
