I'm running NextPVR on Pi OS. Recording to a local usb thumb drive works, yet recording to my NAS' smb-share doesn't.
The folder 'Manual Recordings' as well as a ts- and a ts.map-file are created on the smb-share, yet the files have 0 bytes.
(I started the test recording for the attached log at 20:34:
logs.zip (Size: 101.56 KB / Downloads: 2)
)
(When I switch user to nextpvr in the pi's shell, writing to the share mounted to '/home/nextpvr/shares/nas/' works flawlessly.)
When I try and play the running recording from the webif it doesn't work, since there hasn't been anything recorded. But trying to play the non existant recording somehow triggers it to actually start recording.
(20:37 in the log)
Then I cancelled the recording. (20:38 in the log)

I have several NextPVR servers working as backends to feed geoblocked IPTV. I do this by using the method=channel.m3u export the playlists via a Zerotier WAN to a main NextPVR Installation on a VPS closer to me. The Zerotier method stops the world from turning in to my streams, and draining my bandwith.
What would be amazing is to be able to get the epg in XML format so that I can feed that into my master NextPVR server instead of having to retag the EPG files with the correct ones. For example I have manually remove the TVGID entery for nextpvr-9101, and replace it with "BBC2.UK" It would be so nice if there was an easy way to pull the EPG from NextPVR so that I can use it on my other
server.
can anyone help me unravel this error? I had been successfully recording but the last time I setup to record (no hardware changes) it failed with the above message. I have attached the complete log zip but this is probably the relevant portion:

Basically one of my providers updates the EPG once every hour.
The EPG, and playlist is generated on a remote machine, and the regenerates every 30 mins, and obviously NextPVR doesn't update that frequently which leads to EPG eventually not being displayed.
Is there any way to get that EPG to update automatically. I was thiking perhaps running it through XMLTV or something which feeds the EPG into a file, which obviously automatically updates, and I point NPVR to use the generated file, or am I missing something.
I've noticed that for very long shows, there will be no title showing at all on the web EPG as the title is aligned to the left, and the start of the show is off the screen.
I just setup my HDHomeRun Prime and got it working. I'm trying to setup NextPVR now so I can first watch live TV then setup recording. I've scanned the device and channels for all three tuners, but I can't seem to watch TV through NextPVR. I can watch live TV through HDHR app on Windows. When I click Live TV, the sound for the show starts, but no video, then a popup that says the tuner is required for a recording and I can watch the recording or exit to main menu. I haven't setup any recordings yet.
I am in UK using an Hauppauge WinTV-soloHD DVBT Tuner, there are many radio channels available as part of freeview programs (DVB-T)
I found those radio channels can be successfully played via KODI nextPVR client (in Radio) without problem but on sevrer PC in windows using nextPVR desktop app most will either not playing, playing but no sound, or simply crash the desktop app.
I tried to change the decoder setting in audio decoders, but there are not many choices to select (either LAV audio decoder or Microsoft DTV-DVD decoder), it doesn't change the symptom. also no change check "only use mapped audio decoders during .ts playback" on or off
Here is the log attached in my reply below, Any suggestion what happened?
