I’ve been thinking about the long-term preservation of my recordings, and I would really like to have the option to back them up onto VHS tapes.
I know that VHS is an older technology, but it’s still widely available on the second hand market. Plus, VHS tapes are known for their durability and can last for many years if properly stored.
Having the ability to backup recordings onto VHS tapes would give me peace of mind knowing that I have a physical copy of my recordings that I can keep for a long time. I think this would be a great feature to add to NextPVR, and I’m sure there are others in the community who would appreciate it as well.
Please consider adding this feature to the wishlist. It would be great to have the option to select a recording and choose to backup to a VHS tape, just like how we can currently backup to an external hard drive or network drive.
After having the AppleTV app for a few years, I finally dropped the coin for the iOS/iPadOS version so I could watch my NextPVR feed from outside my home network. I can connect to my server remotely, watch live TV and access the TV Guide no problem, but fast-forwarding (and I assume rewinding) doesn’t work when viewing recordings. I move the slider over and the slider stays in place, but the video restarts.
iPadOS 16.3.1
NextPVR version 6.1.1.221106
Any help on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated!
When I use the “nexttool.exe --debug \\NUS2000\Media2\RECORDINGS” command line the command trace references xml documents with unexpected content. For example:
System.InvalidOperationException: There is an error in XML document (2, 2). ---> System.InvalidOperationException: <recordings xmlns=''> was not expected. at Microsoft.Xml.Serialization.GeneratedAssembly.XmlSerializationReaderRecording.Read6_recording() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Deserialize(XmlReader xmlReader, String encodingStyle, XmlDeserializationEvents events) at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Deserialize(TextReader textReader) at NextTool.MetaXML..ctor(String filename, Nullable`1 filesize)
The NextTool.txt that is generated shows the exact same information. How can I determine what xml document haqs the unexpected content?
This install will not work, the client will say you need to upgrade to version 5.x. (I assume backend nextpvr), that was done. Nextpvr client tells me I need to upgrade. The latest version 20.1 kodi for Firetv will not work.
I have backtracked to backend Windows nextpvr 5.00 and firetv kodi version 19.5. The kodi firetv shows a message that there's a compatibility problem when the Kodi 19.5 starts that I need to upgrade to nextpvr 5.03.
Are these bug problems that no one else experiences?
I only use Kodi for my recorded OTA programs. I use Hauppauge WinTv-7164 BDA ATSC/Qam tuner 0 and 1.
I am only able to use nextpvr 5.00 and kodi android (firetv) versions 19.5.
Will there be a fix?
Hi. Last little while people have been leaving Nextpvr playing live tv and then go AFK (away from keyboard) for the rest of the day. This of course leaves Next pvr playing the live tv for an amount of time that I cant determine.. but seems to eventually, overnight, stop playing. This of course prevents the computer from sleeping all that time until it finally stops.
Is there a variable in the advanced file that can automatically stop Live TV after a number hours which I can set? I was thinking 3 hours would be enough unless someone touches the keyboard.
I looked through the documentation online but nothing jumps out at me so far.
Thanks. The version of software is the most recent windows version 6.1.1
I have a Windows 7 PC with Windows Media Center but is rarely used. Once in a while I’ll program a manual recording.
I was just looking on Titan TV & noticed it has a record function that works with PVRs. Unfortunately not with WMC but it said it does work with NextPVR.
I went to Download NextPVR and clicked on the Windows option which brought me to a thread about installing. Is there a file to download first, or does the setup take care of that?
While looking into NextPVR I did see a file (NextPVR 6.1.1.221106) to download which was on another forum. Do I download the file or run the setup?
Is the current version of NextPVR compatible with my old Windows 7 PC or do I need to get an older version of NextPVR?

I think way back in MCE there was a function that allowed you to segment the guide in to genres e.g film, television, music news etc
That would be a really cool feature to have
Given that there over a dozen clients for NextPVR you may wonder why this is necessary. For many of you it isn't and for Windows you should stick with NextPVR.exe or NLite if they work with for you. Where most clients are most lacking is Windows support for AC-4 audio from ATSC 3.0 available from the Flex 4K
Additionally the new client uses libmpv which provides opportunity to provide support for new media types and features not in other client. The one that I find most interesting right now is multi session support as explained on the wiki. If you want the sports bar feel or like watching multiple video streams together it can be fun. I find it better than PIP especially on the big screen
If there is enough interest I can also expend on the media types available in the Video Library.
