First day with NPVR as main TV app, long time GBPVR user (I had it tweaked so well...). Now to work out any issues before the wife misses too many shows (she is looking at me right now with... that look):eek:
Scheduled Recordings seem to stay past their end time. Also, they seem to only record the first few seconds before no more. i.e from the uploaded image, and logs, The Bachelor taped for 18 seconds, and Lie to Me taped for 1:18. While testing earlier I noticed a recording go for only 18 seconds as well. Not sure if coincidence or relevant.
I have 4 Tuners and in the image 5 are recording, one duplicated which may be my fault or at least easily fixable..
Tuner setup went flawless. Thanks for creating an option to set tuner priority, and disable option. Thanks for adding schedules direct native support.
I went to stop the NPVR recording service to zip the log files. after i zipped, i went to restart the recording service and I got a crash dump file. attached is the dump.
The attempt to restart the NPVR recording service the 2nd time worked. 4 recordings started, and got only 4 seconds in before ending. still show as recording...
Logs are attached. they were running for less than 2 hours before the crash so there shouldn't be too much in there.
Thanks in advance for any help.
NPVR 1.5.36, windows XP
I have XP. I have SAF installed and EVR is working--except in saved recordings, EVR lags a little bit. So EVR works just fine in Live TV, but not in playing back I'm assuming there is a way to fix that? I hope... Thoughts anyone?
Hello.
Using npvr 1.5.36. I can configure TV Listings plugin but when I go to launch it I either get nothing, or the attached .net error.
image and logs attached. I removed the logs, started recording service, launched npvr, cursored to TV listings, pressed enter and nothing happened. Pressed enter again and got the attached .net error.
I am trying to upgrade from GBPVR to NPVR. I have stopped everything to do with GBPVR (service & autorun entries). I start NPVR and try to run a scan for channels (settings>devices>highlight tuner>device setup>set country & region>scan), but I get the error shown. I have read through the forums, but could not find a similar problem. I enclose the logs, although I think the problem is here:
Any ideas anyone?? I have tried the "Keep digital graphs constructed" option in the Misc tab of the settings (as it seemed as if it had something to do with graphs), as well as choosing different decoders in the decoders tab, but I am still getting the same problem on both tuners on my Asus DTV card.
The setting that prefers AC3 works fine in Live and done recordings. But in recordings that are still active I get several seconds sync issues. This is not random, but happens all the time. Skipping a few secs back or forth that sometimes fixes sync problems have no effect here. I have tried several different video and audio decoders but the sync problem is still there and seem not be caused by decoders. When I change the registry back to 0 (no AC3 prefer) the sync problem is gone. It starts on HE-AAC and I can select AC3 manually and get it in sync.
The channels that have this issue have all two audio tracks, one AC3 and one HE-AAC.
I am having problems with one channel here in Sweden (Axess TV) that does not give me any audio. It is MPEG-4 video, HE-AAC audio, SD resolution.
The thing is that HE-AAC works in all other channels with HE-AAC, just not in this one.
I am beginning to think it is demuxed wrongly, but that is just a theory.
I have tried Monogram, Arcsoft and Divx AAC decoders and no difference.
Sub, if you PM me I will provide you with an FTP login where you can get a small sample (just 7 MB).
I was looking for something unrelated and came across the fact that one of the muxes on mendip changes frequency on the 11th of January to accomodate BT - Sky Sports.
From Ofcom
Quote:Arqiva B will operate on channel 59+ (10kW ERP) until January 2011, when it will move to channel 67 at 26kW ERP until September 2011. Arqiva Bâs final DSO channel will then be adopted, though ERP will remain limited until early 2012.
This has not been widely publisised.
I have attached new inis for 11th January and September 2011 when hopefully all changes become final.
The offsets are already included on the 2 channels that need them as I find scanning (even with scan for offsets ticked) locks on the main frequency which results in a poor signal.
Frequency 6 is the DVB-T2 mux.
Hope these are of use for the master table Sub - the UK West Mendip ini in NPVR is well out of date.
One acctual Question - do I need to delete Changed Channels before a scan, or will NPVR find them anyway?
I'm in Melbourne, Australia, and trying to get SBS to show up on N-PVR. All the other channels are showing up with a scan. The other weird thing is that there is another TV in the house, using the same aerial, which CAN get SBS.
I tried putting the frequency in manually and couldn't find anywhere to do so. I eventually stumbled on "NPVR\Tuning\DVB-T\Australia - Melbourne.ini", which does have the line "5=5,536500,0,0,7", and that's SBS's frequency according to various websites I've found it on. One site quoted it as 536625, so I added the line "6=6,536625,0,0,7", restarted N-PVR and scanned again to no avail.
Sub, when you get back and have a moment, can you update the Custom Tasks feature so that a working directory can be specified? Some programs expect to find their 'stuff' relative to the current directory, and thus don't work when launched as a custom task.
edit: also, I just discovered that if I disable a custom task, npvr 'forgets' what it is; it's still in the plugin list, but it loses it's parameters and does nothing if re-enabled. I then have to manually fix it or delete it from config.xml. it'd also be nice to be able to edit an existing custom task.
I am suddenly unable to access the Recordings screen - NPVR goes Non-responsive.
The logs show a locked database.
This is immediately after a reboot.
Logs attached.
Thoughts anyone?
