I have been playing with the YouTube plugin and now have 100+ rows in the PLAYBACK_POSITION table, that are the remuxed YouTube files for the NMT that I manually clean out. Would it be possible to add a filter exclude certain folders from playback? Alternatively if the PlayVideo() function could be passed a flag to not store the position that would work too.

On the question of position, does NextPVR require a full path match or does it use just the filename.ext I am thinking of archiving files and would like to keep the resume points.

Finally picked up a Popcorn Hour A110 and transitioning to it from MVP.

Downloaded NMTInstall2.exe and ran it. All appeared to install OK. Not sure what I have to do next. Here's my output from NMTChecker. Any help appreciated!

Just wondering.

For example I only use paths local to my npvr such as 'friendly' name "JukeBox" with a path of "D:\Music". is it possible for a user to have the path as "\\myserver\music" ?

Cheers,

My guide data stopped updating for some reason. I've tried manually clearing and updating the epg etc but nothing seems to work.

I can view the tvguide.xml file with a seperate app (XMLTV EPG Viewer.exe) and all the data seems to be fine. BTW get the data from Oztivo using Epgstreams' xmltv download. There's been no changes on my end as far as I can tell.

I've attached logs and the tvguide.xml file.

Many Thanks!

PS does anyone know if I still need to use the xmltv download app. I remember reading somewhere that 2.3.6 can be pointed directly at a web site for data, but I'm not sure if australian data sites such as oztivo.net/xmltv or epg-service.tv are suitable?

Hi,

Something odd has been happening recently with my WinTV-HVR-2250 and NPVR. Mostly I can record 2 QAM shows at a time, sometimes 3. In status, of the settings it shows 4 total. I think something weird is going on with my configuration.

I recently upgraded, but this issue was happening before. Any tips are appreciated.

Thanks!

My hard drive failed and I lossed some recording data, but not the recordings.
Can I manually update my recordings db?

Thanks

Hi,
I am new to NPVR, so please me gentle.
I have 2 Compro S350 DVB-s cards in my PC and I am trying to configure the analogue composite video input on one of the cards as a source. I have a STB connected to this input and would like to be able to record this source and set up the MCE blaster to control the STB.
The problem is, that I can`t seem to find how to configure the card in NPVR to use the composite input, it seems to want to tune the satellite channels in using the card's own tuner.
I know that the composite input is connected and working correctly as when I use the Compro videomate software I can view the STB. Obviously, I have stopped this software before trying to configure NPVR.
I appreciate any help that anyone can give, as I really want to get this set up using NPVR.
Thanks
Duncan

Since upgrading to 2.3.6 I've been experiencing problems with my recordings. I'm using 2 Avermedia AVerTV TwinStar dual tuners on Windows 7 64bit. What seems to be happening is when I have recordings scheduled on all 4 tuners and there is a tuner change due to pre-padding, recordings start to fail.

In the logs(NRecord.log.1) attached, Doctor Who is the first show to start recording, Alcatraz is moved to a different tuner. Both of these complete successfully. Supernatural starts recording but stops when Doctor Who stops. They are both on different networks. According to NPVR Supernatural continued being recorded as scheduled but when the file is opened, it is only 11-12 minutes long.

The remaining recordings all fail resulting in 0 byte files and the signal failed to lock error message. The task bar icon was still red during recording and it said the tuners were recording their respective shows.

Trying to start recordings after that resulted in 0 byte files. After I restarted the recording service, I could manually record 4 separate networks via the TV guide successfully. I've attached the files in the logs directory.

Please let me know if any further information is required. Thanks for your help!

I have just downloaded the latest version off the wiki (to try & get my JustRetro skin updated for it) & now after doing a search & selecting a title that has multiple results when I press Enter it pops up the Details popup & not the list of shows, what am I doing wrong??

What is the easiest way to flush out / reset NPVR's recurring recording history? Deleting old recordings and then deleting and re-adding recurring recordings doesn't do this.
