Try something different.

It is an Old School style skin that uses lots of the display area & also displays things like the timeline & position indicator at the top 'like it used to be done'.

It comes in three variants, 'Blue & Grey' (which are really just different background images) & a 'Retro' version with retro images for some of the backgrounds.
It has been tested on NextPVR.exe 6.1.2 & later using win10 & win11 (it also displays on the uiclients like nlite & uidroid etc.)

To install unzip the OlSkool download somewhere (not in Program Files) & then copy the skins into "C:\Program Files\NextPVR\data\skin"

Run NextPVR.exe, right click & select settings>General in there you can select the Active Skin (don't worry about the image it shows there) & you can also change/select the Menu Style.

There are also a few easily user changeable options that I will document in the support thread here https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid582660

I would like to see the option to play music from a web browser. I would probably use this feature when listening to music remotely.

The web client will allow me to view the music folders and album artwork but it doesn't play mp3 files. Currently I am using Jellyfin which works fine, but it would be nice to use NextPVR for music instead.

I'd discontinued use of my NextPVR for 18 months as I moved house. I've just had a satellite dish installed so setting it all back up.

I use Astra 28.2E UK Freesat channels.

Plugged into the PC, not all working fine.

Some channels not working, others working ok.

It looks like some of the Freesat channels have been jigged around.

My nicely choreographed EPG/channels list is now all messed up.


Part of the problem, despite re-scanning, is that the new channels that replace old ones (like BBC HD is now regional, not UK wide) needs swapping in, but the old channels that are no longer functional are not removed.

Since I don't want non-functional channels, the only way to check seems to be to test each one to see if it works, or delete all my channels and start again?



It'd be really great to just use kingofsat.net or some similar resource to just grab the frequencies and input numbering (Freesat box numbering for example) and build my list manually.

I'd pretty much just finished this task before moving house, so to have to start over again now is a bit frustrating.



What have other users done in this regard?

The brute force seems to be to re-scan, save, then go check all channels, remove all those that don't work, and then re-number everything to fit where it should.


Many thanks

Dave

I recently moved to a new location so whacked the channels and guide lineups. Now when I try to add a SD lineup, after entering my zip and hitting search nothing happens. 

Attached are my logs. Thanks for the help in advance. Sure wish I knew what I did wrong

I purchased the player to mainly use for audio. Is there any way it can be set to play in the background when the screen is locked?

Ryzen 3700X
TBS 6205 quad tuner
Lenovo Android tablet

Occasionally, when watching recorded programs (on the pc) on the Lenovo tablet, I somehow tap the wrong thing and end up deleting the program from the main pc. Also, recently I was watching a program on the tablet that was still being recorded, and I somehow cancelled the recording.

Any ideas what I am accidently tapping on the tablet to cause these unwanted behaviours ?

Otherwise, the tablet app works great 

Ok, The playlist from my IPTV provider was hacked. Is there a way I can have NextPVR reload the playlist without having to delete the old play list?
Thank you,
Bruce

Hello,
While watching channel newsnation today at 9:12am cst it froze and will not resume.  This happens with all most channels.  Probably a provider issue but want to make sure.  
Any information will be helpful.
Thank you,
Bruce

I'm seeing a regular problem with a short back skip in the NPVR client.

Whilst playing a file, skip forward seems to work ok but regularly if you skip back (20s), the picture freezes and audio stops.

After a while, nothing happens so the only action is to stop the playback and resume.

Whilst resume does work, you are immediately presented with an on screen Skia error window.

At this point you have to exit the NPVR client and restart it to resume normal operation.

Regrettably that error window is not captured in any of the NPVR logs nor Windows error logs.

Relevant npvr log file attached. Playback was of "The Hit List" and starts at 13:25 01-06-2023

Playback was paused a couple of times and skip forward used a couple of times (although no immediately) prior to the use of the skip back.
