Running 2.3.6; I have some duplicates in Recurring recordings so want to group them to make them easier to identify but Sort A-Z doesn't seem to have any effect,but date sorting works OK.
Hi
I have just upgraded to Win7 (64 bit) and npvr 2.3.6. Under XP I was using the Hauppauge IR but would now like to use the cases built in IMON IR to receive the remote commands.
I have imported into the IMON manager the pvrx2.imo from http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...and-Remote, however all I can get to do is move the mouse cursor around!
Has anybody managed to get the IMON IR to work with npvr?
I also use a Harmony learning remote which is set to be an IMON.
Cheers
Stu
The MCE pause button seems to be sending a double press when handled natively by npvr, so I cant pause TV. All other MCE buttons seem to send a single command only.
Log shows keyboard ctrl q working fine, followed by MCE pause button.

I am trying to set up my new Windows 7 64 bit htpc with npvr but when I set it up it doesn't see an analog tuner just atsc or QAM (and what's IPTV?). To test things out I set up windows media center and it found the channels just fine.
In trying to use the Network Recorder plug-in to set recordings with Windows Media Center for encrypted channels, I was testing to make sure NPVR noticed that a tuner was in use, and would select the other, and it didn't seem to. On the dual tuner DCR-2650, I tested this out by viewing a channel with WMC, which started using tuner 0. I then selected in NPVR another program (unencrypted, so it would be doing things regularly, not through Network Recorder) to record, and while it indicated it was recording the program, it created a 0 byte file.
Looking at the logs, it appears NPVR was attempting to use tuner 0, and somehow didn't detect it was in use. Could I have something setup wrong with the DCR-2650, or is there a problem with NPVR?
Minor issue but I thought I should post it. Each time I enter and leave the settings menu it is adding another entry for RandomPhoto in the plugins. I am deleting the entries from config.xml to clean it up. Anyone else seeing this one ?
For the second time in two days, my HDPVR just stopped working and I get an unable to find available capture device. The only way out yesterday was to reboot.
Here is the time when it first stopped working.

Hi! I am relatively new to NPVR and have run into a few issues that I cannot seem to find answers to elsewhere.
First - I have a Sabrent TV-USBHD tuner (USB Stick) that seems to work well watching live TV or recording programs after I have recently watched TV. However, when I schedule a recurring recording and leave the computer overnight, it seems that the USB tuner sleeps (I don't have XP set to sleep or hibernate that I am aware of) and then cannot be found when NPVR is ready to record at the scheduled time the next morning. I saw a post about the EPG update possibly causing an issue, but the EPG update is set for 2am, which is a good 5 hours before any scheduled recordings, so I don't think this is the issue. I have posted log files, just in case they are useful. Does anyone know what might be happening and how I might resolve this?
Second - The Sabrent tuner is a hybrid device, so it also has an analog tuner and capture device. I also have an old, analog ATI TV Wonder Pro PCI card installed in my computer. I was able to follow the analog installation instructions, as well as add these two devices to the AnalogDevices.xml file. NPVR successfully recognized both analog devices. When I try to run a channel scan with the Sabrent device, I get a message that reads "Unable to start device: Device failed to start." When I try to run a channel scan with the ATI device, I get a dialog box that reads "Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application." It then provides a long text of details, which I attached to this post. Unfortunately, clicking "Continue" just re-opens the dialog box, which then seems to get stuck in an endless loop that never allows it to close. I have to force NPVR to close with Task Manager to get the dialog box to stop popping up. Since a channel scan does not work, I tried manually setting up Ch 3 and Ch 4 for both devices to see if I could get them to pass a signal through in Live TV. Unfortunately, both devices give me an error when I try to open the manually created channels through the Channels screen in Live TV (device failed to start). I have included the FilterCheck log in the logs file attached to this post. Can anyone help me determine if either of the analog devices that I am trying to use are compatible with and can be used to record analog pass-through (VCR, digital set-top box, etc.) video?
I am running NPVR 2.3.6 on Win XP SP3, P4 3.0Ghz, 2GB RAM
I used the following entries in the AnalogDevices.xml file:
<Device filter="ATI TV Wonder Pro A/V Capture">
<Name>ATI TV Wonder Pro</Name>
<Type>SOFT_ENCODE</Type>
</Device>
<Device filter="Microtune Dongle Analog Capture">
<Name>Microtune Dongle Analog Capture Device</Name>
<Type>SOFT_ENCODE</Type>
</Device>
Thank you!
Update: I started having issues viewing Live TV with my digital tuner card. I think this is related to the analog tuners, as it did not happen before I added them. I posted a second set of log files, just in case these provide any insight. Removing the analog tuners from the Devices list and the AnalogDevices.xml entries resolves the Live TV issue. I scheduled new recordings after removing the analog devices, but am still having trouble with my digital tuner device failing to start at the scheduled recording time (this time only 2 hours or so after I successfully watched Live TV and scheduled the recordings.
If I want to convert a path (for example) to the escaped characters used in an HTTP url are there any easy conversion methods to do this in code rather than manually using 'replace' on strings?
