I have update NextPVR from PVR 2.5.9 Patches R1 to include the patches up to #20.
Also updated TV Listing cause I could not put negative minutes in manual recording ?
After the update I could put negative minutes in the manual recording ... but now I can no longer create recording with negative minutes or update existing one!
I have been trying and trying to figure out how to setup and configure using xmltvextra. I use schedules direct if that helps. Sorry I cant be more descriptive but the directions seem a bit ambiguous.
Does NextPVR attempt to reread a directory on error? For the first time I can recall NextPVR failed to record a show and it might simple have been because my NAS was waking up slowly too.

Would it be possible, or indeed, is it already possible to include the tuner used for each specific recording in a log file somewhere, am having trouble with a dodgy tuner and i'm not sure which one it is, and it doesn't become evident for a while after the recording starts, making it difficult to catch.
I set up an HTPC for my father-in-law with NextPVR installed on Windows XP using a Hauppauge DCR-2650 (although I regret not getting him the HDHomeRun Prime instead) and a Cisco tuning adapter. Unfortunately, I'm seeing SQLiteException (database file locked) everytime there seems to be a DB update. The main symptom that caused me to look into this was the EPG update not appearing to run after initial setup; however, perusing the logs indicates that the EPG update does appear to be taking place -- with listings download -- but they don't appear to be saved in the database, *except* when a manual EPG update is requested from the Settings menu. (I have not used anything to check the database.) When we examined the system last night, we also confirmed that the Recording service was running (both by examining the system tray and the Services control panel).
(1) What causes the SQLiteException? (I feel like sub mentioned a process locking the database and not letting go, but what would cause that?)
(2) Based on the attached logs, does that seem like the likely cause of EPG not being updated automatically?
(3) I asked my father-in-law to reboot the HTPC last night after we made some updates to the config (e.g., disabling "Update DVB EPG during live TV" in Settings: Misc, changing EPG update hour from 2 to 4 in Settings: Misc2), but I didn't talk to him tonight. Does that remove DB locks? Or do they persist beyond the offending process terminating? (I'm not familiar with the SQLite database.) I'd install the Firefox SQLite viewer, but I'm not going to ask someone who isn't a software engineer to make SQL queries remotely...

Started working on the next release, will have basic mobile support in there (modelling this after the for the record iphone app, want the guide to be very similar to that, its a nice epg for smarthphone).
If anyone has any requests now's the time.
This will likely be the last alpha, and then it will go into beta.
Hi guys I need a little help, I recently moved to xbmc after years of running Windows Media Center.
I'm a little stuck, I've used other pvr for xbmc but so far the experience I've had with nextpvr its the best offered for xbmc.
My problem is I don't know how to setup the MCE IR Receiver/Blaster to work with my set top box.
I currently have IR server suite installed, it worked well for me with mediaportal but I don't know how to get it to work with nextpvr to my set top box.
Please any help is appreciated.

I am trying to record an analog stream from a set top box into a Hauppauge PVR-2250. I have installed SoftPVR. I can see my two analog tuners. When I do a channel scan I see a single channel 3, which is good. I have not setup anything for an EPG. I just want to play shows recorded on my set to box and record them to my PC. I know the signal into my PC is fine. I have recorded live tv with windows Media Center. But all I get from NPVR Live TV is a black screen with ANT3 as the source. Just installed NPVR 1.5.9. I have copied the channel setup from first tuner to second tuner. Is this something I should be able to do with NPVR?
