Just brought a Samsung LED TV and spent 4 days trying to get rid of the the contrast flicker when going from dark to light scenes
Turned out to be I had ticked pulldown detection in ati settings on the PC
thought id mention it in case some else hates their Samsung tv as much as I did till i found it
now i think its not bad apart from the coulours been a bit in your face (a bit more tweaking yet)
Is anyone else having an issue with TVListings continually reverting to the standard 'default' guide each time they go into the settings?
When i go into listings and check on the TVListings addin - any guides i had defined are now gone, and the program then uses 'default'. I recreate another 1-2 guides, assign the various channels to each that i want and save the settings. i can go back into the settings immediately after and the guides are still listed.
however if for some reason i go back a day or two later - the guides have all disappeared again.
Is there a particular log that i could check and see if i can find out why this is happening?
I see that McBainUK has done some really nice work on this page on the wiki but I'm not totally sure all the information is 100% relevant to NextPVR (like the reference to batch files for example) & I'm also not sure the linked file is the latest version??
I am trying to get my clean install of NextPVR updated to the latest versions of all the plugins etc. that I use all the time & WebRadio is right up near the top of that list for me, can someone confirm that "v3.6 Updated 2011-04-08" that is on the wiki is the latest version?
I also will be using it on my NMT's but I don't think "Download:UbuRecordingServiceSetup.zip" as a separate file is is now required? (but it is a very long time ago (& the very first beta) that I got up & running on with my last clean install so I can't remember)
When watching back a recorded program or resuming live tv from pause my playback and fast forward functions are virtually unusable.
When I attempt to fast forward by even a single press of the > key on my keyboard often times the screen goes black and nothing happens for 30-45 seconds, after which playback will resume maybe 10 seconds from where it originally left off.
So I wait 30 seconds to skip ahead 10 seconds. It's the same with trying to rewind.
My PC is somewhat old and limited - a single core P4 2.8Ghz with 1.5GB RAM, however I was originally using WMC 7 and even though it ran my processor at nearly 95% always, fast forward and rewind did work smoothly.
NextPVR on the other hand only taxes my CPU at around 25%, but FF and RW are not usable.
In the Netherlands some cable companies do transmit off the cable channels
For DVB-T tuners it is possible to finetune the channel frequencies in the tuner ini files
Is there any way I can set the exact tuner channel frequencies for analoque channels?
Example: frequency should be: 720000000 (as set in GBPVR)
Can I edit the tuning settings in the npvr.db3?
Any field to adapt in this?
I'm trying to find a way to duplicate the videos screen, one display 1 set of local folders and the other a set of folders from a removable drive.
for example videos1 has d:\tv\
and videos2 has e:\tv_portable\
As current the screen will crash if any folder no longer exists.
also on the details popup of the videos section of TvRecordings I would like to see the 5th button, "Delete"
i see that i can alter the DetailsPopup.xml visibleButtons="4" but this does not change the gui correctly
is it possible to at least 5 buttons?
is it possible to make the number of visible rows adjustable via the options, I've found I can alter the visibleRows="8" and set the size to a smaller value but this does not produce the best results. TvRecordings.xml
I have had problems with failed recordings and the recording service hanging. I had setup the recording service to restart ever night shortly after midnight and this resolved most of the issues. However I recently got an NMT and it seems to hang when the recording service is restarted. I disabled the recording service restart and now have the failed recordings again.
Last night there were 4 failed recordings. Also this morning it seems the recording service was hung as it wouldn't play live tv until I restarted the recording service. I have attached logs. The first logs Nrecord.log.zip are before I restarted the recording service, and the Nrecord2.zip are after restarting the service this morning.
The failed shows were:

In case it helps I'm running windows 7, with an HDhomerun Prime tuner. All of the patches have been applied to NPVR per the Final.zip file.
I am building a new HTPC and can have external or internal capture device for DVB-C - I do need CI support and will have CAM (CryptoGuard) with paired card.
I have been spending hours looking at different DVB-C capture devices and as I have Hauppauge 150 today I looked into HVR-930C but I saw quite some reports of that the device do not work so good - and I did not find any other Hauppauge device with DVB-C with CI support.
some devices below looked good although some of them quite expensive and .
Are some of these not supported in NPVR (using CI and paired card/CAM)?
Anyone who uses them with CI/CAM?
can I use several or will they conflict so I need different brands/models?
can any device use one CAM/card for several capture devides or do I need one CI and CAM/card per device?
anything else I should think about or another device you know work well in NPVR and with CI?
