Could channel changes with the remote (guide and Live TV channel changes) be "smarter" and if a channel doesn't exist try and find the match
using the last digit as the minor? eg. 41 would find 4.1 133 finding 13.3
There will be potential conflicts but minor's won't be zero and normally the minor is less then 10 so these will be minimal.
Wanting to determine what the expected outcomes should be for the following:
Windows server running combo tablo OTA tuners and iptv (primarily plutoTV) channels
Guide update scheduled for once daily coming from xmltv file
The postloadEPG.bat has this line in it
start /b "" python C:\Users\Public\NPVR-data\scripts\plutotv\pluto.py xmltv-update 90
I've tried that with varying numbers from default to as low as 60 without noticing a difference.
For testing purposes I setup a recurring recording that should record all programs (by guide data) on a Pluto channel. It recorded what was in the guide initially but stopped when that initial guide data ran out. If I manually updated the guide, which I did around 8:30p 1/19, it started recording again. My assumption is that it should reload the guide data every 60 minutes and continue to record matching programs without intervention as it does for the OTA recurring recordings.
I don't know what I should be expecting to see in the logs but am surprised that the npvr.log seems to only have entries up until 12/20. Is that log only used for system updates and the like?
I expect that the automated guide refresh is only for Pluto and not universal to xmlTV/IPTV guide sources. Is that correct?
I created an "extras" file with 5 different channels defined. If I try to record more than 1 channel at the same time I get an error: "No tuner is available at the specified time" Is that normal?
I'm using NPVR, by itself, on a desktop to record broadcast TV. Often it records a few programs but then tries another and fails after a couple of minutes. In the morning I check and NPVR says no service; I check task manager which claims Nextpvr service is running. I restart the service and it works (again for a few shows). It fails at about 1/19/24 ~04:00 (AM).
As promised Martin and Sub, attached is a dvbs5-scan of Astra 28.2 carried out on Hauppauge HVR4000 pci card. If you need anything further on this let me know
I RE-installed NEXT pvr. i had it set to get the program data from the broadcast signal since my SD expired. I since resumed me SD account. NOW 10% thru 100 channels setting guide to SD i wonder if there is a configuration file i can manually edit to set all the channels to SD? I cannot find this "bulk map" thing. i have problems just finding the "settings" since it does not appear within the app when ever i look for it. I thought i used to just r-click on the NEXTPVR icon in the top left of the window to find settings but my memory must be in error. I also have a problem if someone tells me to use "bulk map" without stating all the steps from launching the program to getting to the "bulk map" setting. Does it require a fresh install? IF possible can i get the file name to offline edit EPG source? barring that can i get step by step instructions how to change all my program source data at once from over the air to schedules direct? SOrry about the length, this is a great program but i'm slow bad vision and hard for me to slog thru the fine print.
Hello,
Mother is in the hospital and I would like to disable the recording service. Which file do I need to stop to stop the service?
Thank you for your time.

Is it possible to use Meshnet or Tailscale to access my remote (Windows-based) NPVR server? I use them successfully for other applications but not for the NextPVR server
Sometimes a scheduled recording on my Windows 11 Pro system with an HDHomerun Flex 4K works and sometimes it does not, failing with "recording service not running at recording time." I am using a laptop and all of its power settings when it is plugged in are set to "sleep" as is the state for when the lid is closed. Services show NextPVR Service running and started automatically. Powercfg shows three waketimers set for reasonable times, that is, for what the Web App says I have recordings scheduled, and one head scratcher (set for 2:44 AM tomorrow). Here is a snippet from nrecord.log that I could use help interpreting. It shows a recording starting when it should yet it being marked as failing after the fact? Anyway, any advice about what I should be looking at or experimenting with or changing are welcome.

I am copying this from a PM since it applies to all UI clients and NextPVR.exe so others might want the same answers.
Quote:1. How I can change the group in TV Guide. It shows all channels
I can change the group only in this screen (I uploaded screenshot) https://imgur.com/a/hyNWkt8
To change from All Channels the group selection option in UI clients on the guide is on the NextPVR hidden menu. The hidden menu is available on most NextPVR screens not just the guide. How to access this varies by client. With NextPVR.exe, nlite or yauiclient you can activate it with a mouse or home key. Also on some screens hitting up on the first row will open it but not on the EPG.
I am also not sure if you have the Tizen client working but the minimal remote you have doesn't give much choice. Hitting long back will exit the app (can't stop Tizen from doing that) but when you go back in the hidden menu will be showing. Full function remotes or keyboards give more options. I do plan on putting this on the 123 key, I thought I had but I guess not.

2. the date on the top right.
it's possible to change the order?
I can't read well at first sight
now - 목, 11 1월 2024, 오후 8:11
to be - 2024년 1월 11일, (목), 오후 8:11
I am not sure how sub creates that date time format but I think that might be hard-coded.
