Recently I am experiencing reboots of my mvpmcX2o's. The log attached shows one of these reboots where its resting on the main NPVR menu and then just restart. The PCH is NOT rebooting.
Log extract, complete logs attached to this post.

Although this would be easy to implement with Shortcuts*, I was thinking it would be useful to have a menu item that allowed you to browse USB / external drives for all media content (music / videos / pictures), a bit like how many DVD players these days allow.
Thanks
* Still holding out hope sub re-implements this GBPVR feature in NPVR - http://bit.ly/hPjVHN
Seems to have started after I loaded 2.0.3 and started recording programs with NextPVR instead of GBPVR. When I open NextPVR the message "NextPVR Has Stopped Working" appears and after a few seconds the program closes. Seems to go away with a reboot but reappears possibly after a recording. Any suggestions?
Note: It also seems to stop future recordings until a reboot.
Setting the aspect ratio to auto with mpeg2 sd has been working fine 16.9 content and 4.3 always show correctly.
I have just started using the UK DVB-T2 HD Channels with PDVD10 and DivX codecs - if the aspect ratio is set to auto the picture always starts in 4.3 ratio. If I then cycle through the different aspects, auto will then pick it up as 16.9 and change to a full screen.
The only way to get it to start correctly is to set it to Fill then remember last (or fill) in config screen. Then of cause all the 4.3 programs are stretched out to much!
Picture size on these HD channels appears to be 1440 x 1080i anarmorphic.
Comcast has a feature where if the channel has an HD equivalent, you can press a button on a channel and it will take you to the HD equivalent. So on the wishlist is an option to link channels where, if there is an HD option, i can click and watch the broadcast in HD rather than enter the channel number.
Another option is to group channels together. For example, create a 4.1, 4.2, 4.3
I have two NMT devices. They both use the same mvpmc share on my NPVR server. They both are using component video to connect to the TVs. I want to switch one of these to use a HDMI cable instead. Will I need to make any changes to the mvpmcx2 configuration files? Will I be able to have one using component while the other uses HDMI?
I currently have this line uncommented out in my startmeup file:
I saw that my original post has received 18 sets of eyeballs but no comments. Please help if possible! I tried using Sage TV and was severely disappointed. The continued search brought me to NPVR, and this seems more like a "community".
Given my Sage TV experience I know that my card is working (and the correct drivers installed), so what do I need to do to get NPVR to recognize the card (device)? Is this something that GB-PVR would have addressed OK but just isn't yet built into NPVR?
I'm running Windows XP or this wouldn't be an issue. I was running the XP Media Center Edition on the older machine, so support was "natural". I'm not yet running Windows 7, where support would again be "natural". I'm in the doughnut hole, so to speak, and would love to be able to record programs for later viewing. Seems a shame to have a card but not be able to take advantage of it...
This is a question to which I really should already know the answer, but how does nPVR keep track of which variation of the default skin it is supposed to be using?
I ask because on my 2.0.3 clients, if I choose Default: Texture_-_Wood for instance, that is the skin I get every time i start it up. However on my server, it changes as I select it, but it goes back to the Default: Abstract_-_Graddif skin every time I restart nPVR. If I choose a completely different skin (blue retro for instance) that sticks ok.
I can see the skin section in the config.xml, but that is just set to "default" on both the client and on the server.
I've also looked through the logs, but can't see any reference to the skin being changed at all.
is there a jukebox / random all feature available on npvr or a plugin yet???
I've been running nPVR secretly in the den and it's looking great, but can't kill off GBPVR in the family rooms until the music side of things passes the WAF test...
Installed npvr 2.03 on a windows xp machine sp3.
Using HDHOMERUN dual.
Got 37 scanned channels.
NPVR.exe open in fireall.
EPG populated nicely.
Only one problem - live view just shows black screen and no sound:confused:.
Please advise.
