For example, seeing this as a possible problem in the logs on my clients:
2012-03-24 19:46:46.881 [DEBUG][1] added decoder to graph
2012-03-24 19:46:47.143 [ERROR][1] ConnectPins: Failed to find output pin named ~CC
2012-03-24 19:46:47.143 [ERROR][1] ConnectPins: Failed to find output pin named ~CC Out
Show is Kitchen Nightmares. It played back just fine with 2.3.6 on the same client and still plays okay on the Server now that it's 2.4.3.
I believe that Mr GB may be away, so not expecting immediate response
But steeb is on the path again... :eek:
I see no reason now to have anything other than:
NPVR Documentation
and GB-PVR Documentation
on the documention threads on the forum.
IMHO it is a mess.
There is a load of stuff that can be moved or lost.?
Sorry to be on warpath but it takes a***holes like me to shake this stuff up
Hope all in UK have enjoyed the great weather, not sure what the weather is doing elsewhere globally, and should we all be worried? Is this standard global weather shift patterns or global warming!
I didn't apply the new skipping patch as I wasn't really having any problems with live or recorded TV skipping. Now that I have installed 2.4.3 my live TV pausing/skipping has gone to hell in a handbag.
If I pause live TV, when I un-pause, playback seems to skip some random amount of time in the future. If I try to skip back, playback freezes and sometimes generates a message that NPVR has stopped responding. Basically for me, it's completely unusable.
I will collect some logs today and post them and then restore my previous 2.3.6 install, which was pretty flawless.
EDIT: By the way, skipping on recordings is absolutely fine, the problem only applies to live TV.
I don't understand logic of recording
I have 2 analog turners, version 2.3.6
to night I have recoding that go to 23:10
next recording is starting 00:15
then I tryed to do a manuel recording starting 22:10 to 06:00 (nascar) it says " NO Turner ...."
if I delete recoding that start 23:10 and then do Manuel recoding and after that via EPG (23:10) says "quick recording" it works
this is how it looks =recording .... not recording
=============23:10....................00:15 =============02:10 .................................
...22:10 ======================================================06:00
the only recording that is on only 1 turner is the manual
I could understand if I get "no turner if then manual recording and the recording that ends 2310 using same turner
but now I dont understand this
This has happen also for EPG recordings (so it's NOT only then I do it with manual recording )
so can anyone explain how this is working?
A long-time GBPVR user, I'm now looking at NPVR as a replacement/upgrade.
But I do have a question. With GBPVR I could manually enter start and end times with the keypad. However with NPVR it seems I can only scroll to the start and end times (in 10 minute increments!). This is painfully slow when setting up a series of manual recordings. I can't find any reference to this in the forums, and I can't be the only one wanting to do this, so am I missing something?
It should be noted that patches are listed generally in chronological order, but not perfectly so. The thread a given patch is posted in may contain additional information on exactly what a given patch was intended to do, and may also contain information on additional settings required if you wish to use the functionality provided. Finally, not all patches actually fix what they are supposed to, but the changes usually remain in the file going forward, so they are listed as part of the update history.
Installation Notes These "patches" are simply replacement files for the existing NPVR program files. You should extract them and copy them over the existing files; the default directory is C:\Program Files\NPVR. If you are running Vista or 7 and have UAC enabled, you will likely need to do this from an elevated command prompt or explorer window. To get an elevated explorer window, go to All Programs->Accessories, right-click on Windows Explorer and select "Run as Administrator". Now, within that explorer window only, you are the Administrator.
Before installing patches, you must exit NextPVR.exe, shutdown the NPVR Recording Service and close the NPVR Tray Icon (using the "Stop NPVR Service" icon accomplishes both).
I recommend that you restart your system after installing patches. I've seen numerous cases where the Recording Service is not able to restart properly due to a socket error. You can check your NRecord.log to see whether it did or not, or just reboot to be safe.
Crashes here with any attempt at skipping also file always restarts at beginning [no resume].
If I substitute the last previous NPVRTSReader2.ax all is well.
Logs and crash dialog text attached.
Additionally Live TV buffer does not clear.
Clocks go forward here at 1am on the 25th and in general NExtPVR is handling this correctly although the TV Guide is showing 01:xx on the timeline. Technically 01:00 -> 01:59 don't exist.
In the image below the details panel correctly shows that Weatherview starts at 2am BST but the timeline shows 1am.
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
In the next image the details panel correctly shows BBC News runs from 2:05am BST to 2:30am BST but it's displayed as if it runs from 1:05 to 2:30.
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
It's not until I move through so the timeline starts at 2am BST that things balance out (See below).
If you're new to NextPVR, see the list of pre-requisite software at: http://www.nextpvr.com/nwiki/pmwiki.php?...requisites (directx runtime, visual c++ runtime etc). If you're upgrading from an earlier build, you need to make sure you stop the NPVR software before installing.
If you're using an HDHomeRun, after installing you'll probably need to add a firewall exception too allow the new NDigitalHost.exe to receive data from the HDHomeRun, otherwise live tv or recordings may fail.
Please post any support issues in the support forum.
This is a fairly small release, intended to take the pain out of downloading all the patches for the last release. From the change log:
Quote:- improved skipping in .ts files, using new NPVRTSReader2.ax. Main fixes were several users had long pauses after skipping, inaccurate skipping in live tv and playback on in-progress recordings, improved skipping from client PCs.
- fixed an issue with 'whats new' list position not selecting correct recording after playback if new recording had occurred.
- fixed an issue that could lead to high CPU usage on NMT after playing video.
- fixed a couple of bugs with the new channel groups functionality in the TV Guide.
- added ability to manually force the use certain teletext pages for subtitles. This was useful in a case where the broadcaster wasnt providing subtitle page numbers in the DVB teletext descriptor.
- comskip info now available on client PCs.
- fixed a bug with failed recordings that a re-attempted on another tuner, that could result in a long ever-running recording.
- fixed a problem with resuming playback on NMT
- updated version of NEWA.
- added a "nextpvr.exe -reload" command line parameter that can be used to tell the recording service to reload it's list from the database.
- removed a few log messages that were in some setups causing logs to fill up and roll over quickly.
- fixed a problem where video library wasn't accepting nextpvr's native xml metadata format when stored in a separate file rather the embedded ADS
- in libraries, pressing A-Z will now jump to first item that starts with that let. 0-9 continues to jump to a percentage in the list, the same as previous releases.
- added setting allow user to choose FF/RW key behaviour. You can use the previous skip skip, or new fast play function.
- fixed an minor issue with vertical main menu when several of the menu options had been disabled, leaving 'less than or equal' to the number of displayed menu items.
- fixed an error that could occur when running installer on client machine
- NDigitalHost.exe now also honoring the <UseHigherPriority> setting
- fixed a bug with where edits to a digital channel's settings were not saved when you hit ok.
- minor change to the loading order of cover art.
