HI,
I decided to test nextpvr again at the weekend.
I'm currently running LibreElec 12 Nightly (Kodi 21) Generic on intel i3-6100 CPU/iGPU VAAPI with a hauppage quad DVB-t PCI-E adapter
I currently use TVHeadend and this setup works fine, but I sometimes like try the latest nexpvr to test as I reallly like the web interface and easy setup.
I noticed an odd issue:
With TVHeadend enabled: Suspend LibreElec, then wake, wait for the client to connect and all works as before.
With NextPVR enabled: Suspend LibreElec, then wake, wait for the client to connect but then no live tv, no future recordings, only current recordings work. If I then enable Tvheadend it also doesn't work, so for some reason the dvbt adapter seems to not work after suspend but only when using nextpvr. If I reboot it will all work again
I'm not sure if this is a known issue?
I know you will need some logs, so will try and test again sometime, let me know if you need anything more than just nextpvr/kodi debug logs or have any suggestions that may fix the issue that I can also test.
While working on yauiclient for the RPi, making the code cross platform and I came across several bug fixes and (I think improvements) to the code and have released yauiclient v2 to the wiki. It allows several customization options for audio passtrough and of note on newer machines h/w playback is much improved. In fact Dolby Vision and 8K video can be played from the video library. Deinterlacing is also automatically detected on newer machines but there is a performance hit so this can be disabled in the yauiclient.json file.
There are also some music playback improvements for the next release of NextPVR.
Hi, after a recent update I find that on the Scheduler dialog the Hours and Minutes numbers are not visible. This is on the Date/Time selection. Apparently a white font is being used on a white background. If you mouse over the location of the number the background turns gray so you can see it. Is there some way to change the colors to alleviate this problem? Thanks.
Shortly after a HDHomeRun software and firmware update I was unable to get the tuner to install or connect to the NextPVR. I did some preliminary troubleshooting on the computer (firewall) to no avail. Please excuse the nomenclature I'm a IT nob. Until this the system was working well.
PS The HDHomeRun client does have the stream so it works fine.
In the windows client I get audio but the screen just sits on the ...please wait... screen. If I watch though a web browser it works. Can someone point me in the right direction to troubleshoot this?
I've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall...no dice.
I really love NextPVR. I am getting the below error quite frequently last few days and on random scheduled recording on random channels at random times, so no set pattern that I am able to replicate. When I try to replicate the error by scheduling a recording on the failed channel, it does not fail. Th worst part of this error is instead of that erroneous recording exiting the entire application crashes spoiling the other ongoing recordings that never gave any error.
nRecord.log error (I am also attaching the complete log file for reference). I am also using KODI as the front end. Let me know if its log is also required.

I do see the IPTV Provider url redirects to 3 different URL and I saw another poster posting the same error and a resolution for this fixed it for him. I am not sure If I have the exact same error but on a macOS (he was on Windows I think).
I have huge Plex A/V library, and having recently got plex plus. I decided try to integrate my NextPVR viewing into Plex.
Now the only way to get live TV within plex is to use something like theadfin, or Xteve - so I settled with threadfin. My first setback, was that I had over 480 channels, and with Threadfin I didn't see easy, and straightforward way to manually edit, and delete channels, and I was not going to use m3u4u.com, as it require me exporting my nexrpvr M3U file into M3U4U.com, and this is a closed off system, and I'm not prepared to open ports to do that.
My solution would to feed the M3U to another NextPVR server in London from Amsterdam, cut the M3U file down, and from there it's fed to Threadfin, and then from there over to my Plex media server situated in London, I know it's back, and forth but the output works fine when I connect to the second NextPVR interface via VLC from my laptop.
I highly suspect the issue lies with threadfin. I wish NextPVR had the option to emulate HDHomerun devices.
Love the NEXTPVR service I have in Kodi. I'm having an odd issue however .....
Backstory in case it matters to this:
I had the windows NextPVR Software downloaded on my laptop. I had to do a factory reset on that Laptop .... I reinstalled it after resetting the laptop. I noticed after logging in that my Pre and Post Padding were still there the same as usual but now all of my recordings on my devices in Kodi are not following the set rules.
My provider is about 2 minutes and 38 seconds (give or take) behind most live TV so all of my recordings start about 2 minutes and 40 seconds too early and I have to Fast Forward on every recording.
However, my Pre Padding is set correctly to 2 and my post is also set to 3 so it will run over time to catch the end of episodes movies etc.
All of my recordings BEFORE resetting my laptop followed these Pre and Post Padding Rules, now after resetting the laptop it does not follow these rules.
Could this be because I'm using the old configuration inside Kodi on the NextPVR Add-on? ..... It works .... but the Pre and Post are not working ....
