I have been looking on the wiki at the plugin section to see what plugins I need to do skins for & even though there are still not a lot of plugins for NextPVR one thing that stood out was the number of (for want of a better description) "utility type plugins" amongst the normal plugins....... I wonder if it would be less confusing if there was another section for these type of plugins especially when the plugin section starts to get a lot more in it??

Hi All

can anyone help me with the WndClass for nPVR?

Many years ago I nicked an idea from this very forum where pressing the Green power button would EITHER open PVRX2 OR focused upon it were an instance already running. The code for this in the Irremote.ini used to be:

GRNPOWER={run(C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\PVRX2.exe)}{ sleep(750)}{FindWnd(PVRX2WndClass,)}{fgnwn d()}

I've replaced the Run bit with the location of nPVR.exe but I can't get the FindWnd/WndClass business to work but then I've no idea quite how it works - just nicked the idea from some great mind here

Is there a way of setting reminders from the EPG?

I am currently a SageTV user but thinking of switching. What recording formats does NextPVR use?

I have a HDHomeRun and two WinTV PVR1600s.

Does it just record in MPG?

Thanks Alot

I also have a no sound issue on all the live tv programs,although they do record with sound,any help is appreciated,
cheers

Hey everyone,

Well I come to NPVR, after a long break from TV and I previously used GBPVR with no problems.

Now, I go to install NPVR on a windows 7 32-bit machine and I get an error at first try to copy over files during install.

It says "Error opening file for writing C:\program files\npvr\nrecord.exe

then I have abort, retry or ignore.

I have installed all the pre-reqs, and still have this issue.

Any ideas?
I have tons of HD space and 4 gb of ram.

I have seen a few instances of this recently. Wondering if it is anything to do with autosearch+autorecords?

Same show, weird duplicate recording of same show on ONE tuner? See red bar on top of guide AND the guide at same time.
Sometimes, I just get red bar at top, but I suspect when I get both it records both??? :confused:

k.

Anything that can be done about this?

Does anyone have a working link to the last release of GBPVR? I have unfortunately misplaced my file, and am attempting to rebuild my OS install.

Thanks in advance for any assistance offered.

Is it possible to change the value of the 'stay on top' setting from a plugin?
