I would like a way for NextPVR to automatically divide up recordings into folders named after the call-sign of the channel they were recorded on.

At the very least, it could be a check-box option that works like the Seasons folder option, so paths would end up as:

<Recording Directory> / <Channel Call-Sign> / <Show Name> / Season <#> / <Recording File>

For example, with a recently aired episode of The Good Doctor:

E:/NextPVR/RecordedTV/KTRK-HD/The Good Doctor/Season 06/The.Good.Doctor.S06E16.The.Good.Lawyer.ts

This would be the bare minimum that I'd like see implemented.

A better options would be a versatile system allowing users to specify a custom path format with keywords.
Something like this could be entered into the Recording Directory setting and NextPVR would be able to parse it, and it would result in the above example:

E:/NextPVR/RecordedTV/%CHANNEL%/%SHOW%/%SEASON%/

This could allow for different orders, as well as divisions by other properties, such as year and month the recording was made, like this:

E:/NextPVR/RecordedTV-%YEAR%-%MONTH%/%SHOW%/%CHANNEL%/%SEASON%/

And this would be a result of NextPVR parsing that with the above example:

E:/NextPVR/RecordedTV-2023-03/The Good Doctor/KTRK-HD/Season 06/The.Good.Doctor.S06E16.The.Good.Lawyer.ts

Again, this would be the better option, but I'll settle for just a check-mark that divides everything into Channel super-folders alongside the existing option that divides them into Season subfolders.

Can anyone help setup network encoder with channel change v4 or v5,v6 I'm using win7

my
encoder url http://192.168.1.168/0.ts

my channel change example 105.bat changes channel to 105 very reliably

python broadlink_cli --type 0x2737 --host 192.168.1.70 --mac 00000000000 --send @dish.1
python broadlink_cli --type 0x2737 --host 192.168.1.70 --mac 00000000000 --send @dish.0
python broadlink_cli --type 0x2737 --host 192.168.1.70 --mac 00000000000 --send @dish.5

is there a way to edit tv channels without having to start from scratch

Hi,

After upgrading my Next PVR server to the latest, all downloads of VOD files has been incomplete.  In some cases, file sizes are less than 200 MB.  Please what do I need to do to correct these issues. Please see attached download files list.

Thanks!

Hi 

Hoping someone might be able to help me with an issue I'm having with watching TV.

Everything was working great, but then I started to receive the following error "Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)" 

Like I say everything was working fine regarding watching TV.

I was having a few issue updating the windows system so i decided to rebuild the computer and start again thinking that might fix both issues. However, it only fixed the updating issue and not the TV issue.

I will attach the logs. 

If someone could point me in the right directions it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi.  I've been using npvr for awhile now.  I had to format and reinstall windows, and I'm having a hard time getting this all going again.

I backed stuff up as well as I could, but I think it's all legacy at this point, as I never used a version that had a web app.

I've found 90 channels, did the EPG update, but it only loaded today only and completely missed some channels.

I had zap2it set up to update the EPG before the format.  Can I use my zap2it account for the EPG on the current version (6.1)?

I don't know how I set it up before, as I did it years ago.  Is there a post to guide me through the process on this version?

Thank you!

I have ripped all of my DVDs to my PVR then imported them into NextPVR. The program I used to rip the DVDs preserves the chapters from the DVD.

The chapters work just fine in the NextPVR app, however when trying too watch from a web browser, the chapters appear to be there but the video continues playing from as if the skip forward wasn't pressed.

Also in the Android App recorded programs will play just fine, however the videos from my DVDs will not. Both recorded and videos from DVDs both play in a web browser and in NextPVR just fine.

Any body have any suggestions?

I using a Logitech 665 with a Flirc receiver.

I am having a few problems with the remote functions either in NextPVR or the Flirc program itself as described below,

1. Play only works in NextPVR if the video is already paused, however play or pause will not pause the video. In Microsoft Movies and TV Play and Pause do the same thing, they will pause or play the video depending on its current status (I'd be ok with this). In VLC they both bring up the Simple Preferences menu. In Chrome they open the option to print
   
2. None of the other video control buttons (Record, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Skip Forward or Skip Back) work at all, although Flirc acknowledges them being press (except  Record, Please see #3)
   
3. Flirc will not acknowledge the record button being pressed at all. Flirc does not acknowledge Record, even when attempting to assign it to a button
   
4. The Skip Back(not Fast Forward) button seems to be linked to the channel up button and the Skip Forward button (not Fast Forward) seems to be linked to the channel down button. I tried linking them correctly using the Flirc app but it seems like Flirc thinks they are the same buttons even though they aren't.
   
5. The  numbers work but will not change the channel. This maybe due to the issue there is no way to enter a '.' or '-' to get the sub channels
   
6. Is it possible to use my remote to open programs, IE is their a way I can configure my remote to open NextPVR and other programs.
   

I have been getting partial recordings.  I am thinking it is a failing tuner card (Hauppauge).  There are 3 cards ... Quad, 2250, and 2255. Will the OID tell me which card is failing? I try to follow the "Devices and Channels" link but the website NextPVR takes me to will no accept my logon, the logon that I use here in the forum.

Thanks for help!

The Oscars started recording 7 minutes late on Sunday.
Same thing happened yesterday with FBI on CBS (KPIX).  The recorded program was only 56 minutes, when it should have been a bit over an hour (I think 63 minutes, with a few minutes before/after).
Most shows record on time, though.

My PC is normally asleep and wakes up for recordings. The problem seems to be showing on the first recording of the day so far.
For example, FBI:International and FBI:Most wanted last night recorded in full, without starting late.

I have checked that my clock is properly synchronized. Not sure what is causing this.
I did upgrade my motherboard last week. However, I also upgraded NextPVR.
