I love newa. So easy to see whats coming on via the treeview, but have a problem. Ipad will not work for css type so have to use regular guide. When i select say 10 new recordings to schedule on a channel, a couple fail, either because they might already be scheduled or there is another recording already scheduled. So i get a pulldown list that shows the recordings and i can select them, but cant figure out what to do next. If i try to schedule at a different time via selecting it in the tree, it erros out. If i click on the failed selection, i cant see what is interefering to rectify to decide whether i want to force that to record or whatever. Please help me see what i am missing, i am sure there is something i can do, i just cannot find it.
Also, i am using schedules direct and the latest newa update.but am new to npvr. Is there anything i have to configure or is it already done assuming i am using the latest version of npvr and newa.
But for TS not mpg.
I'd really be happy with some permenantly commercial free recordings (saving 17% of storage space).
I've been banging away at this with little success.
And if you have one that's relatively quick to convert TS to avi that would neat too.
Thanks

Has anyone else had a problem after installing the latest .NET update on Vista. NextPVR seemed to start ok but an exception box poped up when I tried to do anything. The Recording Service would not start and when I went to look at the Windows event log that would not start either showing a "MMC could not create the snap-in" error. On a Technet forum .NET was suggested as the cause and I had just installed some updates for .NET. I reverted to the Restore Point created by Windows Update and everything works. My client computer works ok with the updates but the NextPVR server fails if I reinstall the updates. I will try to repair or do a clean install of .NET tomorrow to see if that helps.
I recently had a virus incident in Windows 7 that "rocked my world" so I thought I would share and whine about it here :o. I consider myself fairly diligent about internet security - I run Microsoft Security Essentials, have UAC enabled, and use Firefox. Unfortunately, all these "protections" failed me.
I was browsing in Firefox and all the sudden Firefox and Security Essentials shut down and a bogus "Win 7 Internet Security 2012" scanner window popped up. When starting up any browser it would show a bogus page that stated I needed to buy this fake Internet Security program to get rid of another bogus virus. When trying to run all other exe's the fake scanner window would pop up. It turns out that it was able to modify my registry without showing the UAC dialog and without me accepting/Ok'ing any software download or installation!!! I can't even modify the registry as an administrator of the PC without answering the stupid UAC dialog.
I used to feel pretty secure but this incident has crushed that feeling. It seems that Windows offers no real protections and I'm still at the whim of these slimy virus creators. Sorry to vent, but this has really caused me to question things. Do you guys think that Mac and/or Linux are really more secure?
Can someone please post a good example of a Parallel Processing.bat that runs comskip during recording? And what need to be done in PostProcessing.bat if anything?
didn't know where to put this so thought I'd chuck it into "GD" thread for starters ...
Been thinking about this for a couple of years now.
Just wanted to check it wasn't me being thick (possible )
I have DVB-S cards
I have an STB
For WAF with GB-PVR and now NextPVR in order to blast the correct channel number to the STB I always number all my DVB-S card channels to the same numbers as my STB (SKY UK)
I could use Alibert's brilliant TV Listings plugin and create separate guides for DVB-S cards and STB but once again this loses WAF.
I want 1 guide to do everything but am fed up using the numbers that Sky uses. I want something more tailored to how I like to use numbers.
Have I missed a trick all of these years by being a bit thick?
(Don't all jump at once at my stupidity ....)
If I haven't missed a trick am thinking about writing a simple in between exe utility to send to IRSS (that is what I use but guess it could be used in between any blaster.exe) to say "you selected channel 12 in NextPVR but now blast STB number 1 on channel 157" etc. Have been inspired by reading some of pBS' posts...
Please let me know what I have missed out by being tired grumpy etc :eek:
I've had Windows 7 running with a HVR-1150 for a couple weeks now. Today I downloaded and installed NPVR 2.2.6. I really like the look and feel, but I've got a couple issues.
On about half the channels, the audio is way out of sync. In some cases a couple of seconds off. However it does seem to self-correct within a few minutes of being tuned to the channel, so it is liveable.
Also my card is ATSC and QAM. Only the cable is connected to the card so I did the QAM scan and it found all the channels that are available. However, no data appears in the EPG even for the channels that the scan was able to identify.
I've tried manually naming some of the channels and then updating the guide, but that hasn't helped either.
Can someone please provide some pointers for the EPG problem? Thanks
My wife's PC (XP Home Edition) has suddenly taken to 'sticking' at the 'Windows is shutting down' screen.
Are there any tools anyone can recommend to trace what's going on during the shutdown process? It doesn't seem like it's just being slow as I let it sit there for an hour last night before eventually hitting the soft power button to kill it.
