I'm hoping this is the right section. I'm trying to install the addon skin NextBlue Setup_v2_05 to NextPVR 5.2.7 (220410) on a Windows x64 system. The setup.exe fails with Error DataDirectory
NPVR is installed at:
DataDirectory Registry Error
Completed
I've tried extracting the contents of the setup.exe file and copying the NextBlue skin folder into the Program Files\ NextPVR\data\skin however this locks up NextPVR, probably due to the missing unregistered dll files in the $PLUGINSDIR (inside the NextBlue setup.exe). Can this skin still be used? And if so how do I correctly install it? All of the NextBlue forums seem to either be nonexistent anymore, or have posts from 2015. I would appreciate any help at all with this.
NextPVR worked fine on Mint 20.3.
Upgraded to Mint 21 (Vanessa).
HDHomeRun Config GUI works fine. Video will play to VLC.
When I try to install NextPVR for browser I get this error:
sudo apt install ./nextpvr-helper.deb --install-recommends
[sudo] password :

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nextpvr-helper : Depends: libssl1.0.0 but it is not installable or
libssl1.1 (>= 1.1) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Based on that error I'm not sure where to go. I tried a workaround to get libssl1 installed, but that failed.
Hi - I'm still using legacy NPVR v4.2.5, and have a number of live TV channels through a Hauppauge HDPVR device that I run a blaster executable for, or at least am trying to...
On random tunings, sometimes the executable runs...sometimes not. Why would that be?
FYI I'm not running an actual channel changing blaster executable, I'm running an exe I created that is actually changing my Fire TV stick through Alexa routines, b/c I'm recording off that.
And I'm using Emby to call upon NPVR as a live channel (m3u).
I've zipped all my logs and attached...looking at the NRecord.log, I see where it knows to run the file but again I'll go through a spell where they don't run and I'm trying multiple channels.
The triggers where the blaster exe didn't run were today (8/7/22) around 08:59 and 10:29.
Been a long time.. I gave up on my htpc a few years ago when chromecast / streaming became the norm. And tbh, not much to record on tv these days..
My parents still going strong with NPVR thou, all be it a very old build. I just had to patch up there PC with flakey HDD's, so gave the whole thing a birthday, including grabbing the latest NPVR.
Really like the new web ui (not convinced ill get the olds to swap lol..) but notice isn't an obvious option to play videos like in the desktop app. Am I blind, or is it no longer included ?
The HDD's that remain have a ton of old shows, just cant get to them from the web ui.
I have used NextPVR for years on W10 and had no issues recording of the air programs.
I recently upgraded to a new W11 system and transferred everything over to that system. I can report that off the air recording continues to work without issue.
I decided to add a few IPTV channels and I have been able to do short notice scheduling of recordings for some channels without issue. (guide does not populate very many hours)
On other channels, I can schedule a recording and leave the computer awake and come back to find that the recording either only lasts a few minutes or failed due to recording service not running.
The system is set to sleep after 2 hours inactivity and turn off screen after 1 hour.
It seems to be able to wake up and record off the air on the tuner just fine.
I expect this is something I missed in the iptv setup. Any help is appreciated. example log attached
I have been using NextPVR on Windows 10 for a few years now and recently I lost sound when viewing Live TV. Programs that I record when played back DO have sound. What could be wrong?
