I saw that some methods and properties that were exposed in GBPVR/PVRX2 are missing in NPVR. For most of the things, there are some kind of workarounds, but some parts that would be important for me are missing:
- Events for "EpgUpdated", "ShuttingDown", "StartupComplete"
- Access to an UiElement's texture (textureTopLeft, textureTopRight, ... properties)
- Something similar the previous oneOffRect property for UiElements
Is there a chance that those will be added in a future release?
I get an error when I try to load the backup of the recurring recordings...
The importer complains about an "unknown channel" in the recurring-backup.xml.
Further investigation indicates that this is caused by the "channel OID=0" for the scheduled recordings for which I have specified "record on any channel".....
IMHO it looks like a small oversight in the importer, not knowing about the new "record any channel" rule...
Here is the snippet from the log...

GB-PBVR found 22 ATSC channels using my HVR-2250. NPVR is only finding a max of 17. I've tried numerous rescans and deleting, new scans and that's all I get. Any thoughts on this? I found some issues with QAM but not ATSC in the forum.
Hi guys. I'm keen to have a go at recording Sky directly - getting sick of terrible quality composite recordings via the decoder, so I need a DVB-S2 tuner card. Problem is my machine is a bit old and I don't have PCI-E, so I'm on the look out for a Hauppauge PVR-4000. Anyone got one they want to sell, or know where I can get hold of one?
I searched in the forums and did not see anything on this topic. I would like to upgrade to NPVR and have it working on the PC. Have not played with the old MVP or the dongle for NPVR. My question is does/wil NPVR support the Hauppauge MediaMVP-HD device.
I am trying to setup my analog device and in the Analog Recorder Settings window I Imported my XMLTV.XML file. This gave me all of my channels, but I am not sure what the number column is exactly. My channels go up to 946 but every single one of them has the number 947 in the number column. Did I do something wrong?
Martin, I wonder if you can see what is wrong with my setup. It has been crook for weeks, now, with only very brief flashes of sanity. Basically, I just can't get NPVR running. There seems to be something wrong with the PCH and my share access. It just can't see c:\mvpmc even though it is set to share with Everyone and Guest. Othe PCs on the network can see all my shares and run all media files with no problem at all.
What it can do:- From 'Media Sources' (with the icons) the PCH can see all photos, music and video and play them. It can get Internet radio and all Internet streams no problem.
Problem areas.
-In PCH setup I can't set a network share. It finds my PC and after that says 'No content on server'.
- If I browse to PCname/Lin it allows me to click 'Folders' and then displays F: and clicking that it displays My Music (this is on F, then it quirkily displays only three music folders out of about 10.
- Running NPVR link scripts results in a blank screen and, if I'm lucky, it eventually does the soft boot thing, otherwise it is power disconnect time again.
Probably due to the power plug moves, the PCH lost its settings so that had to be redone.
I am sorry to be a nuisance but I am embarrassed to say I am stumped. I ran your NMT install program this morning and the result is just the same.
