Is there an active issue list to avoid duplicates? I've got plenty of issues upgrading from GBPVR. No worries.
I've seen the attached problem a couple times now setting up a recording. The updated TV guide with "pending" recordings show other programs to the left or right also as pending.
Great looking plugin!
I tried this with several skins, and seem to get some errors?
I am not sure if it is the skin, but I did add the recent BlueRetro Skin update from here
is there a reason why the STARTUP_COMPLETE event never seems to occur in the mvp server instance? The problem is that I'm trying to set text in the 'Now Playing' section, and there may be problems if the PluginHelper methods "SetAudioDesciption" and "ForceRender" are called too early:
Code:

Ok, I swear I try to read each and every post even if it's about something I don't know or don't care so where does the 'Next Recording' message that shows at the bottom of the main screen. I know it wasn't there before today when I added the latest TV listings but I can't see where to turn it on and off.
However, it's not correct as it's showing the next recording as 5 days away when I have 7 shows scheduled to record before the one that's presently listed.
Either way, I like this.
I have a Hauppauge 2250 and am running Windows 7 Home. I'm using the latest version of NPVR (1.5.36) with the latest patches (NPVR 1.5.36 Patches Final). I had a digital QAM channel set up to record from 8:00 to 9:00 and an NTSC analog channel set up to tape from 9:00 to 10:00. The QAM channel recorded fine, but the analog channel recording never started. Upon opening NPVR, I noticed that the status of the recording was failed. I then tried to start the recording again (note that the digital recording was still in progress due to overlap) and it again failed.
Even though the 2250 is supposed to record:
1. Two analog channels at once (which I witnessed in NPVR).
2. Two digital channels at once (haven't tried yet).
3. One analog and one digital (fails for me).
I can only say the case of 2 simultaneous analog recordings seems to work. The problem seems to be related to a digital recording overlapping with an analog one. In the log, it seems that NRecord is attempting to start the recording/encoder. So, I'm wondering if this is a Hauppauge driver issue?
Any help/ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
(Log file attached).
Two or Three times this week the TV Listing is not showing the round icon for scheduled recordings.
The timeline at the top does show something is scheduled but you need to drop to pending recordings to see what.
What is strange is the time slot in the hour before correctly shows the icon as well as has the red background color.
Another issue I have observed is the channel icon in Listings sometimes has the same icon for multiple channels showing in the same page.
At first I thought maybe it was only channels I have no icon setup for, but on close observation that is not so, after paging up or down a few times it straightens itself out.
I am a little fustrated. I am always looking for to updates, but when I made the switch to nPVR, it has been very fustrating.
First and foremost, my computer has issues just starting up, never had theat issue with gb-pvr.
Second, no matter what combination of drivers I get choppy Live TV and recordings. Does not even help with playing the recordings thru VLC.
I tried the ffshow thingy and it only got worse. Then uninstalled the ffshow and part of my orginal decoders are gone.
So after 7 days of fighting nPVR, I was going to download gb-pvr becasue that worked for me, but I cannot find it anywhere on the internet to download.
I was planning on upgrading my computer one of these days, but it looks like I am forced to spend money now instead of later.
I do love the look and feel of nPVR, but it has really messed things up for me.
Quote:- added recordings panel to display upcoming recordings inside the 'now playing' area
alibert, it looks like the recording panel is not working on the PCH/NMT. I do not have any logs for this now but can recreate the problem if logs are needed. The panels are working fine on the PC, but NPVR wont even start on the PCH/NMT with the panels activated. Besides this 3.4 works like a charm.
I find that my two digital tuners are better with different channels. What if there was an option to change the device priority depending on the channel
