WMP can play these files but npvr doesn't... using: microsoft dtv-dvd video decoder for h264 and mpeg2... this works for avis and mpgs no problem... renderer: evr
I am not sure why closed the thread if the problem is still pending. I understand that I can go back to GBPVR, but I cannot at this point. I did try your command and it rebooted the machine too. I included all four log files, so which one is missing and the most important?
If you do not want any feedback on a problem then by all means say so. I thought I was giving you more information that might help with the resolution, because in the past you complained that you are not hearing enough feedback from the users.
Hello !
My XMLTV feed contains characters encoded in UTF-8 this causes both GBPVR and NPVR to report "illegal character in XTMLV file" or similar.
UTF-8 is probably used since i live in Sweden and we do have some characters that doesnt fit within the 7 bit ACSII table.
Since I cant change the output of my grabber I have done a dirty work around with a Perl script that convers the UTF chars into similar Acsii values.
I dont know if this is something devs would like to fix, if so let me know and I can supply you with the conversions needed that I have found so far.
Prehaps this is on the todo list already ?
I have used pretty much every OTA PVR system on the market, and have had no problem setting any of them up, with the exception of nPVR. I have never been able to get the TV portion to work. I run dual Hauppauge 1600 cards in my HTPC. Windows 7 64-bit, Core 2 Duo chip, with 4Gb RAM, and an ATI Radeon 5770 Graphics card.
Sage, Mediaportal and GB-PVR have all worked out of the box, with few issues. Here are my log files for nPVR. When I scan for channels, nothing appears.
With gbpvr I used comskip in process and when watching a recording that was in process, the comskip info would be constantly updated while watching.
Now with nPVR, using comskip in process with parallelprocessing.bat, it works fine, but the comskip file does not get updated while watching a recording that is in progress. If I quit and restart watching it is updated.
Is there a way to have the comskip info updated while watching an in process recording in nPVR?
When I hit pause and then resume, within 3-4 seconds the audio and then the video freeze up... i have to exit live tv and then re watch... using Hauppauge 1600 (qam) to watch live tv... logs attached

I have one USB TV tuner attached to this computer. It was recognized and the channel scan went fine. It records great, so I would think it is working with the software. I have installed the Direct X 9 update.
In nPVR in the settings on the General page I have PVR mode selected. But the main screen still has a Live TV option. If I move to that and hit enter, I get a message that reads "Unable to find available capture device", and, of course, I get no TV. No recording is happening while I do this (but at least in theory I have recordings pending, see my previous post for details on that issue).
I can change the general setting from PVR to TV Viewer, but then I just get a black screen, and still no TV.
Why would I get the message about no available capture device? Have I failed to set up something properly?
And as I work through the documentation and try to take in all of the features of this software, I get the impression that it might be able to show other live video than just from a TV tuner, perhaps things from the Internet. Can anyone point me in the right direction to do that, or just tell me that i'm confused about that.
