Looks good. I like the idea of the integrated media jukebox. So for a pure playback client this could probably work for npvr. Pity it doesn't run xbmc... Or syabas came with open arms and specifications to mvallevand so he can work his magic...
Can you add a 4th parameter to the ParallelProcessing.bat and PostProcessing.bat scripts which would contain the OID of the Capture_Source used for the recording?
I've had a few recording with some quality "glitches" recently, and I want to add some additional logging try to track down whether the source is a specific tuner or my cable in general, etc. So I need to log which tuner was used for which recording as well as periodically checking the tuner status during recordings. And the commands to check the tuner status vary depending upon which tuner is being used.
BlackGold BGT3620 dual tuner

United Kingdom/Sandy Heath transmitter
NPVR 2.2.6 + Patches R1
When I originally set things up a few months ago, I selected the "copy settings" option when setting up the second tuner. Everything was working fine.
Then a couple of channels stopped working (I don't remember the details, unfortunately), so I did a retune on both devices. This worked, except that the channel list now showed several duplicate channels.
Then, a couple of weeks later, everything stopped working (all channels simply showed a black screen), and retuning didn't cure things. To try to get a complete "factory reset", I renamed the npvr.db3 file (I hope that wasn't a mistake), and did a rescan. No channels at all were found.
The following morning, I power cycled the computer, and repeated the retune. This time channels were found as expected, *except* that they all have the wrong channel numbers -- before I started this exercise, the channel numbers matched those in the published channel guide, now it looks as if they have simply been allocated sequentially as the scan found the channels.
I've since updated the driver on the BlackGold device to the latest version, renamed the npvr.db3 file again, and rescanned. The channels still have the wrong channel numbers, though.
So, a few questions...
1. How can I get the proper channel numbers back?
2. What's the right way to do a channel rescan, keeping the two devices sharing the same channel list?
3. Is renaming the npvr.db3 the right way to do a "factory reset" on the channel list, or is there a less brutal solution?
Can anyone give me any advice, or point me to any information with regard to getting GBPVR working with a Hauppauge 400o to receive DVBS2.

I'm trying to set up a client machine and keep getting;
"MachineXXXX\full path to,,,\npvr.db3 is not accessible. You don't got no permission to use this network resource.Contact yourself to see if you have access permissions.
Access is denied."
the OS of the server is XPMCE SP3 and is set to:
server: \\MCE
Database:\\MCE\documents and settings\all users\application data\npvr\npvr.db3 (this Npvr directory is shared)
the would be client is XP pro SP3
server: \\MCE
Database:\\MCE\documents and settings\all users\application data\npvr\npvr.db3
I get the same message when trying to open the directory with explorer but can access other shared folders.
