Nextpvr has been running on Ubuntu with a HVR-1600 for a few YEARS.
I turned the machine off, removed the HVR-1600
rebooted the machine,
after a while I turned the machine off and re installed the HVR-1600
Nothing changed in software the computer has only 1 pci slot
dmesg says the v4l drivers install and the card is activated
npvr says the card is not installed. Tvheadend says card not installed
npvr adapter logs don't say anything other than it tried to scan. Where else can I look for clues?

I have been trying to figure this out for a long time. Server is Windows 10. Clients are iOS and/or Android. The server stops advertising its existence after a while. A few hours after service start. Server IP has to be entered manually. If I restart the Windows service, its existence shows back up on the clients for a few hours and then disappears again. I have gone to great lengths to make sure the server PC does not go to sleep in any fashion. Does anyone know why this might happen?
Hello, probably a feature request, but any possilbity to connect to mulitple (3 specifically) NextPVR backends?
I split time in 3 locations across US from weeks to months and all 3 are setup identical and work really well, but want to know if Kodi can be configured to "suck" channel guides from remote locations. I know I can access each remotely so that is no issue.
If plugin can accept mutliple server address with port numbers that would be very nice.
My mother's server went off line. Don't know why. Unable to remote into it. Finally came back up. I would very much appreciative to know why when anyone has a chance to take a looksie.
Hi, followed the links in the wiki and a few other threads but I dont get any download just seems to loop back. Can anyone provide a location for the ZIP file I want to try to install on Fedora.
Thanks.
So far i've been using nextpvr to record without transcoding.
Just for giggles (i am filling up the second 8tb drive nicely...) i set the pvr to transcoding.
So the next time a recording finished, it would start transcoding, but also since i'm back-to-back recording, it would record the next program right after the first one stopped.
I looked at the cpu usage (btop, mainly) and saw that cpu was pegged to 100%, because, well, the transcoding mainly, but also the recording.
The next recording and going forward, i set the transcoding back to 'leave recordings in original format'.
Not that i need to transcode, but i'd like to know: what happens when there's a recording happening and the transcoding at the same place - will the recording get 'glitchy', and/or will the transcoding get glitchy because of the pi4 8gb doing too much at the same time?
For years I've happily run NextPVR/Docker on an RPi 4, and just having received a new RPi 5, I've tried to port over my working configuration. I think I've copied and configured all the pieces, but the container exits almost immediately after it starts. If I allow it to auto-restart, it will repeat the start/exit activity forever. There are a LOT of differences between the new RPi 5 runtime environment and the old one - machine architecture, OS version, package versions. Two questions - (1) have folks gotten the current nextpvr/nextpvr_arm32v7:latest container to work on an RPi 5 with the latest version of Raspberry Pi OS (64)? And (2) is there a logfile that I can view inside the container (or map to a directory on the host) that I can maybe see what's causing the exit and debug it further?
One additional clue is that docker-proxy is not starting up, but that might be because the container exits so quickly. I do see the Docker bridge network in the routing table.
On a system that was working, I'm now seeing lots of errors of the form "Recording service not running at recording time". PC isn't waking up.
The usual stuff, sleep settings are: sleep after 15, unattended timeout 2, allow waketimers are enabled. Hmmm, I'm sure I had unattended set to 10 previously (now updated to 10).
I've tried toggling the nextpvr service between automatic and automatic delayed. I've toggled the "keep tuners primed" back and forth. No difference.
I've not changed any BIOS settings, because no settings have been fiddled with recently. I've re-installed NextPVR (though not yet with an uninstall beforehand).
Interestingly powercfg /waketimers (yes, runas admin) returns the following error: "Unable to perform operation. An unexpected error (0x65b) has occurred: Function failed during execution". No other powercfg commands reurn an error. A thorough google search suggests that no one has an effective fix for this (the usual sfc/dism/troubleshooter options list no errors, and have no effect). So, I restored my system from a backup taken a few days ago, and the error was gone.
And it's back... after adding scheduled recordings to NextPVR. It looks as though adding scheduled recordings to NextPVR is causing (or triggering) the 0x65b error. With no recordings scheduled I see the scheduled wake for EPG update, no problem.

Any thoughts, amyone? When I first set up NextPVR I spent a lot of time sorting out wake/sleep issues, then more time was wasted with crappy Hauppauge drivers, and eventually I got a stable system. And now it's giving me grief again. Alternatively can anyone recommend a TV with multiple tuners that can record to a USB device without encryption, available in the UK?
I have been using UIDroid with my NPVR server and love it. Now I'm wondering if I can make my server headless and access it with the Firestick browser to make changes to server settings. I tried putting the IP address from the Linux installation instructions into the silk browser but it just does a online search. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better browser available?
