Not sure if this as an mvpmcx2 issue or an NPVR one so I'll post here.
Difficult to quantify but we have issues with every recording when played back on the PCH where we can skip forward fine during earlier parts of the recording but, later on, a skip forward will drop playback to the recordings menu.
OK, sounds weird but, for example, some channels have advert breaks every 10 minutes - with a 1 hour recording I can skip without problems 10,20,30 minutes into the recording but around the 40 minute mark, a single skip forward will drop back to Recordings - then again at ~50 minutes. I never seem to get dropouts at the earlier stages however.
Similarly weird, a 2 hour recording will usually behave when skipping well into the second hour but around 1hr 15mins - 1hr 20mins that's when trouble starts. In other words skipping at 40mins or 50mins behaves fine.
I've included the log of trying to skip an episode of Marple tonight around 1hr 16mins into it. The problem starts with...
Code:
2011-09-10 23:10:00.113 [DEBUG][3] User pressed: Right
...and shows the dropout to the Recordings menu at...
The worst bit is attempting to get back to where I was watching - I often find Resume will work but with a timeline starting at 0:0:0 or Play actually resumes (again with 0:0:0 start for timeline). I end up having to Unwatch, Play, Stop, Play then skip X minutes to get back to where I was....my wife hasn't got the hang of that yet. :eek:
There is a problem with VMR9 FSE - right click (menu) doesnot working - and it is logical in FSE. But sometimes i need to stop playback/exit FSE (when something went wrong) and i am not able to do it by remote/mouse. So i think it will be good if NPVR using FSE, right mouse click = stop playback/return to VMR.
It is possible to filter Search to remove all radio stations ?
I'm seeing problems with 2.2.6 and the sorting of the various Recordings listing screens.
For the Ready Recordings, sorting seems to work fine. But for the What's New, Pending Recordings, and Recurring Recordings listings, NPVR displays the pop-up saying that it is sorting them, but then it doesn't actually do the sort.
As I have mentioned before my nPVR keeps crashing everyday. It usually involves some combination of remote keypresses while I am not actually watching nPVR (my wife still likes to use the TV directly).
So I decided to create the problem in a somewhat controlled manner.Please see the log files attached. so here is what I did:
Thanks in advance.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@16:16 closed all nPVR apps cleared the log files and restarted nPVR
started liveTV - got picture ok
pressed some random keys on my Hauppage remote (pause, up/down, left, right, ok)
after a short while nPVR stopped responding
pressed channel up, nothing, channel down, no response
left it there frozen for half an hour or so
@16:59 came back to nPVR and it still was frozen
pressed play, up, down, but no response
rightclicked with mouse several times still no response
fiinally pressed Ctrl-Alt-Del, and chose switch to task > nextPVR, it said nextPVR is not responding.

Just want to let someone know that the last title in this list (at the very bottom of the page) should be "Picture Library" not "Music Library". The Music Library is described a few lines above this entry.
Thanks for adding the time-of-day to the video OSD in the latest version. I have the UI Zoom Percent set to compensate for overscan but the time text is cut off on the right side and doesn't seem to be offset for the zoom amount.
I installed a technisat dvb-c card with softcam. I had it almost working but in trying to getting complete I must have broken something because NPVR started crashing all the time. So I put an old windows image back and made a clean install.
Now, I got so far that I can HEAR a non-encrypted channel, but I can't see it in NPVR. I can see the video in windows media player so I thought it might be a decoder problem, but both available video decoders don't seem to do the trick.
The other problem is that acamd keeps saying that there's no smartcard defined, which explains why I can't see encrypted channels:

Things I did:
First, I physically removed the (other) analogue tv-card before reinstalling.
The only thing in cardclient.config is:
newcamd:127.0.0.1:15050:1/0604/ffff:gebruiker1:wachtwoord1:0102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E
I added a file acamd.ini:
MonLog=1
(but I don't know where the log is going)
Don't I have to add here "technisat=1" or something?
I copied the acamd files in directory: C:\Users\Public\NPVR\MDPlugins\TechniSat Mantis DVBC BDA Receiver #1-1
I copied and pasted FFDecsa.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR, but NPVR still couldn't find it. Not until after I copied it in C:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\Other, NPVR didn't say it was missing.
I changed <readers name="Phoenix"> and <node>COM9</node> in newcs.xml and started newcs.exe
