Problem: Live TV, Recordings through MVPCX2 no sound or audio just black screen

Background: Came back from hols, issue as above. Can play recordings through NMT interface, can see live TV buffer growing on server, 2.5.5 same as previous. Not aware of any widows updates that may have sunk the server, but I did have an issue with MS security and widows update that I had to fix on return from hols, I had to use various MSfixit downloads and patches.
Installed 2.5.5 using your installer and told it to do the firewall mods required - no change.

I am suspecting a network/firewall issue judging by the logs but no idea where to look.

Help me Martin you're my only hope.

Logs attached I hit live TV at circa 21:52:30 then stop a minute later after blackness of shame.

Thanks for any help.

When in videos ctrl+p doesnt start the file playing(I have to use enter)
(ctrl+p on folder works fine)

I'd like to change the default "Play" command for digital radio stations to be Listen instead of Watch. In the TV Guide for example.

ps do you know the title of description text of this sub-forum still mentions GB-PVR?

I set NPVR to record A Bugs Life @ 1900, 15th August.
However, it missed the first hour.
Looking at the log, it didn't set a valid wakeup.
Any suggestions as to why?

The current list of wakeups looks fine - it matches the pending recordings.

Having a go at getting to the new mobile NEWA and getting a 'Server Error in '/' Application' error when I browse to ipaddress:8866/mobile.

Trying from iPhone 4 with iOS5.1

Is there something I'm missing?

Is there a way to simply say "start recording right now" and for x hours?

Tuner: Hauppauge Computer Works : WinTV-HVR-950Q
Satellite box which broadcasts US NTSC analog on channel 3.

This device works fine with Windows Media Center on Windows 7.

I'm now on Windows 8, but I dont think thats the issue...

1) Has anyone tested NextPVR on Windows 8 RTM?

2) When I click live TV I get "index out of range, value cannot be -1".

3) I have no channels defined though... so maybe thats it.. My tuner shows up as 2 tuners - one analog one digital. Channel scanning in device setup on both of them returns no channels....

Ideas?

I recently bought a dongle that came with Blaze TV - which was diabolical - and prompted me to look for an alternative. Npvr represents a significant improvement... but there are a couple of niggles - and I wonder if I'm the only one experiencing these problems... perhaps they are configuration specific?

1. I've found dozens of channels - but only about half of them are a usable quality... almost certainly, this is down to the quality of my aerial - but this is not something I can easily address - I'm happy to stick to the channels I receive clearly... but I can't see a way to remove the channels for which reception is poor. I've found I can create a new group.. but then I have to explicitly select this new group each time I want to change channels - which is frustrating.
2. I can't seem to find any way to change the order in which channels are presented in the EPG...
3. Sometimes, my mouse pointer disappears... and I'm not sure why... when over nPVR windows... such as the channel selection window.

Overall, it's a great bit of software... it would be even better if I could resolve these minor gripes...

Unlike a lot of folks who want better duplicate handling to stop getting duplicate recordings, while I'd like to leave this handling on, there are some instances where I would like to have both shows recorded.

My example is back to back shows (two halves of a game) on the same channel, which my EPG provider schedules as two shows (and won't change it). So my wishlist/suggestion is to have the settings say:

"Avoid duplicates where possible except where:"

Tick Box : Show2 starts within XXminutes of Show1 ending; Dropdown Options XX=15min, 30min, 45min, 60mins etc.

and/or

Tick Box : Show2 is on the same Channel as Show1.

Recently my computer has stopped going to sleep on it's own. It was doing this with 2.4.3 and now I upgraded to 2.5.5. Kinda came out of no wheres.

If I shutdown the NPVR services (from the menu), and restart them, it will go to sleep just fine (and right away).

But I think on the next time it wakes for a recording, it won't until I restart NPVR services.

I originally thought it might be comskip post-processing that got stuck, but I checked the task manager, and it isn't running. (and I'm at 99% idle).

Where is a good place to start? I'd rather not wipe and reset NPVR.

Thanks

(which logs would be helpful as well?)
