Hi, im having a problem with the livetv of digital channels.

I have a kworld ub430af (hybrid card) which has analogtv/composite input/dvb-t

I added a composite channel and around +20 dvb-t channels (scanned ok).

When i go to liveTV, ican watch the composite input ok, but if i switch to any of the dvb-t channels, the image is black and no sound, i can see the temp .ts file in the folder and i can even play it with wmp ok, so it should look like a decoder issue in nextpvr, but i cant find a way to solve it.

I tried several codecs with no luck, tried from network in other pc and no luck (same behavior), tried with different renders and all the same.

The codecs i have and tested are:
mpeg2:
ffdshow
dscaler
mainconcept mpeg
arcsoft
microsoft dtv-dvd
cbva dmo wrapper filter
sagetv mpeg2

h.264:
mainconcept
acrsoft
fddshow dxva
fddshow video
divx h.264
divx decoder
microsoft dtv-dvd

(also, which one of the two should be used for dvb-t and which one for composite?

I can see those channels with TotalMedia 3.5 and use it with no problem there, among other programs.

Using windows 7 x32.

Here is the log

Npvr is failing for me, for no obvious reason I can see.
Lots of 0 byte recordings are being made, so I don't know where or how it is improved ?

The logs don't show any errors.

N-PVR was running fine until I had to Re-install DotNet as a result of a problem with the new version of ATI-Catalyst 11-3 which I need to support my new configuration. I had to update to the latest DotNet and now I get this error. I tried a complete uninstall/reinstall of NPVR to no avail. The recent fixes inluded as well.

As soon as I start NextPVR.exe, it crashes. This happens with both 2.0.3 and the previous version.

I attached a copy of the details from Windows; XP-Pro SP3 by the way.

What else can I try?

Thanks,

Bernie.

PS: Just went back to GBPVR and it works fine, if that's any indication......
MediaPortal as well....

Hello guys,

First, I have to say that I have tried many softwares for my new HTPC, but NextPVR is the very best.

Unfortunately I have a big problem with the channel scanning.

If I press "scan", the satellite is "0192 ASTRA ... (19.2° E)", it starts scanning, some channels are listed, but after a few minutes, NextPVR brings up a message dialog saying "Created dump file c:\temp\crash.mdump", after clicking OK NextPVR.exe crashs.
(surely I'll attach the .mdump file to this post.)

I read the logs and found an error because of dx9 wasn't installed, so I installed it and it worked...one time. NextPVR says "scan complete", but at clicking OK, net framework showed up an error window, saying the application trys to write data to a locked memory area or something like this. (I had to translate it from german...)
After killing the process (the error showed up everytime I pressed OK or abort) fortunately the channel list was saved. In this period of time everything worked!

Because of nonrelevant reasons, I had to clear the channel list, but now it always crashes while scanning. (I noticed, Windows says the NextPVR.exe is crashed, but in the Taskmanager its still listed, and its not killable by taskmanager)


My hardware/software is:

MSI H61M-E33
Intel i3-2100 ("sandy bridge" with embedded graphics chip)
TBS 6981 DVBS / S2 dual tuner card with original driver from the CD
windows 7 ultimate 32bit
NextPVR 3.0.2 with the "NPVR 2.0.3 Patches, Release 1" package from the survival Thread

Thank you,
Daniel

(sorry for my bad english )

My cable company recently stopped broadcasting the 700 spectrum and moved to 1000 and above. For months, these operated together. As of April 13, only the 1000 and above are supposed to work. They tell me I should not be getting anything in the 700's but I still do.
In my guide at SD, I removed all 700 channels and re-added the lineups then ran an epg update (SD still shows the 700 channels in the lineup) and though I have disabled all 700 numbers, when I go to my channel map, the local QAM are forced back to the 700 numbers and will not stick on any of the 1000 channels.
Using XMLTV directly, I have no problems. SD is being notified as well but I was hoping there was some way to clear out cache or anything to do with SD and start over.
Am I making any sense?

I have the same problem others have reported with the channel changer settings not sticking with my hdpvr.

I have 2.03 installed with the updates from the sticky thread and tried the patch in this thread, http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...el+changer and still have the problem.

This is the last piece I need to get things going.

Newb here trying NPVR for the first time. I followed guides on the site but could be possible that I missed something. I brought in all my analog channels using Schedules direct and the seem to function properly with the correct coloration and such. After scanning in QAM I noticed that some channels are perfectly fine and some have a thick yellow vertical line running through the middle of the picture and some ghosting effects. My guess is the codecs but I'm not quite sure what to do with them. Used the SAF 5.0 codec pack for starters, then uninstalled and tried CCCP. It got even worse! I'm using onboard video and maybe that is my problem. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. There is a couple different logs in my NPVR folder(not sure which to show you) so I'll list them and the SAF log. Thanks in advance!

Dear all,

looking at getting another Quad LNB for a spare dish I have. I don't yet have any DVB-S2 capable cards to experiment with my current Quad LNB (which was a good make and quite expensive a few years back, £20 ish).

Question for now is I see some pretty cheap LNB's on fleabay (around £6) described as HD Ready and then some others (much more pricey around £23.00) described as DVB-S2 compatible.

I get a very good strength Satellite signal from Astra2 & Eurobird where I am located.

Question

Any need to fork out for the more expensive option? Is this just a bells & whistles marketing ploy where a good old cheap and cheerful LNB will suffice or is a better quality LNB going to help me out?

cheers

My PCH A100 has stopped playing video from my GBPVR server.

It will play files stored on it's HDD and the menu functions of gbpvr are working fine, just when you select play the screen goes black for a few seconds and retudn to the recordings library.

I have updated the firmware of the PCH and run pvrx2 on a networked PC which works fine so the files and gbpvr setup all seems OK.

UiList has three views: "list", "horizontal_icon" and "covers", with each type being controlled via the skin.

How can I expand this and have multiple views within each type? Eg, Videos gives you a list down the left-hand side of the screen. What if I wanted that *and* another view that was a list down the right-hand side.

I'm assuming it'll be via multiple skins, but can you (and how do you) switch between them dynamically at runtime (when the user would press "view")?
