Wonder how difficult it would be to do this for GBPVR/NPVR.

hiya ive just installed the software and have managed to get it working.

but a. my signal doesn't seem to be good enough, some channels, such as 4 music, viva, just show a blank screen.
I used to get this on my freeview box. until I sorted out my aerial. do you need a stronger signal for npvr?

and b. is it possible to have the program play .mkv and .mp4 files? I think ive installed all the right codecs on my computer.

thanks for your time.

Record all episodes doesn't work for some titles, it appears to be ones containing an apostrophe.
Sequence of actions:
Start NPVR, "TV guide", select program "What's Really In Our Food", "record", "recording type: Record All Episodes, All Channel", "OK", program still green. It doesn't show up in pending recordings but does show up in recurring recordings.
If I repeat but set "recording type: Record Season", it works fine.

Log file showing error attached.

I have been having a problem with some Recurring Recordings over recent weeks where they are not being recorded even though the tuner is free. The pattern I think is that I have at some time cancelled “Pending Recordings” of these programmes either because I already have the particular episode or to enable a higher priority recording to be made by freeing up the tuner. Sometimes the cancelation was for later “today” but others were several days ahead so involved several EPG updates. I have been trying to work out if there is any point manually reconfiguring recordings a day or more ahead as I suspect they are overwritten at the next EPG update. Sometimes its seem like it remembers you have previously cancelled a programme so perhaps you dont want the next one. Also is there a way to prioritise recordings? Some recordings such as those part of a series are higher priority than others which it would be nice to have if there was a tuner free.

Somehow an invalid character has crept into the fields used for a manual recording.

I can't get to the recurring recordings list to remove them - I see this as a popup:


If I look in the recurring-backup.xml file I see a cntrl-M cntrl-V before the Advanced Rules:

</matchrules>
</recurring>

How best to fix?

I'd really like a function that knows when I've fallen asleep on the sofa halfway through the game, and can resume from the exact point that I fell asleep....

k.

I believe that Channel 4 HD is now available on Freesat on 12607 27500 ,I have tried a number of times to scan for the channel but it it is not detected. Has anyone in the UK managed to detect and set it up.

Thanks for your help

Hi
I recorded Hellboy 2 on TV4 a few weeks ago, and finally got around to sitting down and watching it with the kids. Recorded OK, but I noticed about a third of the way in, I lost the ability to skip forward through the adds. CNT left or right just stopped working. I have never been able to navigate using the time line bar thingy, so bailed out and finished playing in VLC. Is there an obvious reason the skip stopped, and should I be able to click on the timeline, and move back and forth?? Only a minor problem, but would be nice to sort. Am running NPVR 2.03 with what I believe to be the latest patchs...

Cheers

I have PVRX2 set up to record 2 Clear QAM programs at a time from a Hauppauge 2250 card and one Clear QAM channel from a Hauppauge 1600 card. Lately, I have been getting recordings of zero bytes long. Today, I tried to find why this is happening. I thought it might be due to my trying to install NextPVR so I uninstalled NextP{VR and rebooted and still got the same problem.

I found that when I defined the 2250 card and chose the QAM version Config cmomes back and says the card is Type ATSC. When I have it rescan all the channels it doesn't find any Clear QAM (local broadcast) channels. I have Verizon FIOS for a cable provider. The CONFIG log shows an error with TVListings but I doubt this is causing my problems.

I suspect that my problems are due to CONFIG thinking that the QAM card is really an ATSC card. What can I do to fix this?
