I click on Bulk Map, click on the channel, click on the drop down list and map the channel. I click OK. The window seems to hang for aroun 10 seconds. It even shows the "Not Responding" sign. It then goes back to the Channels list and the channel is not mapped. The only way it works is if I don't use the Bulk Map button. In other words if I do it straight from the "Channels" window.
Is there a way to set all my channels with XMLTV as its source? The only way to do it now seems to be by pressing the BULK MAP button but I stil have to set the source one by one.
I've been having a recurring problem where if I'm recording a show on channel A from 8:30 to 9:30 and another show on channel B from 9:30 to 10:30, NPVR/GBPVR will decide to use the same tuner that was used for the first show for the second show despite having 2 other free tuners available. This results in the first show not having an ending and the second show often missing the beginning since the start/end times often aren't accurate.
Is there a way to force padding to behave as though the show were infact 20minutes longer(with 10 minutes on both end) so that the tuner remains unavailable during the padding period? Or perhaps to force the alternating of tuners for different channels?
Alternatively, is there an equivalent of pending.log for npvr where I can check which tuner has been assign for recording? While using GBPVR I used that to check if the same tuner had been assigned to back to back shows on different channels and could cancel and reassign recordings to avoid this problem.
My guide doesn't show any data for my channels so I execute my EPG update script and thats when I see the error message. I use mc2xml as my epg source. Sometimes it works for about 1 week and then nothing after that.
If anyone can shed some light, I'd be most appreciative as I've tried to find a solution in the forums but came up empty.
Ive seen quite a few threads about failed recordings but I cannot really see the similarities to my problem hence the new thread. I have already done the dvbfix solution with a new psisdecd.dll recommended in other threads.
Scenario,
Recording 1: Coupling, scheduled April 5 23:45 -- 00:15 from ch BBC Ent
Recording 2: Gökboet, scheduled April 6 00:20 -- 02:35 from ch TV4Film
Recording 1 does record the program and saves the stream (no postprocesing ie comskip is run), However in NPVR it is indicated as a failed recording-Recording service not running at recording time.
Recording 2 does not record anything and is also marked as a failed recording-Recording service not running at recording time.
The above scenario is happening frequently and is not bound to those specific times and channels.
I have a server running 2.0.3 and the latest EWA, and I have a client machine connected to it, also running 2.0.3. The regular NPVR interface works fine and the EWA interface to the server also works fine. However, I'm not able to access the EWA server (http://localhost:8866/guide.aspx) on the client, only the server. Is the EWA automatically disabled regardless of any settings if it's in client mode? If so, why? and if not, how can I access EWA on my client machine? I'm wanting to do this because my client machine is a much faster computer, capable of transcoding for purposes of streaming over the web with little effort. My server on the other hand is an old machine. The only reason it is able to handle streaming the HD and SD content at all is because of the hardware decoders in my capture cards. It doesn't do transcoding to web-streamable data very well.
Hopefully this problem/question is easy enough to understand. The problem is just that I'm unable to access EWA on the client machine when client mode is turned on. It just never loads the page, instead constantly says "waiting for localhost". It never times out.
