My last recording didn't start properly and looking at the devices, I found there are duplicate entries for all the tuners along with some I don't even have like the HDHomeRun Prime. I tried to delete all the duplicates, but that didn't work, they just reappeared as soon as I restarted. It looks like NPVR is trying to use the blank tuner rather than the actual tuners which are mapped correctly.
I'm at a loss to get rid of the duplicates and get NPVR back to normal.

Microsoft net framework error,unhandled exception,whenever i try to set up live tv,i get this,can anyone tell me how to fix this,i m fairly new at this,thanks to all
Several plugins seem to have trouble when called from command line, I assume because their CTOR call's use functions that aren't supposed to be in the constructor.
I see this everyday in my log for
NextPVR.exe -updateepgonly
Here are the results for SSPlus, YouTube, and Plex

I have a long delay (>20 s) when starting NPVR on clients (from when I launch the exe until I see the main menu). This only occurs after I wake up the client PC from sleep. Presumably, it might not be able to connect right away to the shared drive containing the database. Does the program have some kind of loop where it keeps trying to connect where the time between retries might be able to be shortened? Note that the delay apparently occurs before the log file is written so no delay shows up in there. Also, the NPVR shared drive on the server is set to not spin down.
Im running one tuner card currently and cant get PIP to work from the context menu at all .. No response at all from any of the PIP functions whether in Live TV , videos or whatever. Any ideas ? Logs attached.. I would have thought I could watch another channel in the same freq as a PIP. TIA
Example: I setup a manual recurring recording for '%doctor who%'. In the "Name" field I put the title "Doctor Who". At the moment the recordings may be saved under many folder names eg: "Doctor Who - New Episode" or "Doctor Who - Double Episode" or "Doctor Who - Season Finale".
It would be good if all the recordings were saved in a folder based on the "Name" field "Doctor Who".
I am guessing that there is a way to do this with one of the utilities used to move and rename files and update the database.
I am not sure if others would like this as an "out of the box" solution or tic box option perhaps ? But I thought I would mention it as I would
is there a way to prevent the monitor turning off during music playback? It seems that my lcd tv stops passing through the hdmi audio signal to the avr when the screen enters standby.
Currently if a pending scheduled recording episode of a series is cancelled it gets put back by the next epg update.
I would like a feature added so that the cancellation of that episode can be made permanent.
When i use external meta data for description in video library for movies not recorded by nextpvr.
The description (name of file.xml) and image shows when i open the folder.
But if paused or blue button pressed to show description I only get the little image on left but no description at bottom of screen?
Is there another file its looking for or any way to get it to show like it does if the meta data is embedded?
I've been playing around with PlayOn and Universe again, and have encountered a bit of a problem. After I watch a live TV stream, like from the NBCOlympics or NASA TV plugins, an instance of MediaMallServer.exe stays at 50% CPU (i.e. 100% of 1 core on my dual core system) and makes everything else in NPVR slow and choppy. This goes on until I shut down the server from the PlayOn program, or just End-Task on the offending MediaMallServer.exe process.
Could this be a Universe bug where it doesn't properly tell PlayOn that no one is watching any more, or would this be a PlayOn bug? Have you encountered this before?
I attached the NPVR log; in this instance my wife went into Universe at 18:33:40.099, launched NASA TV for a minute, found it wasn't what she wanted (Curiousity rover mission coverage), and hit Escape. About 15-20 minutes later I went in and restarted the PlayOn server.
