Just installed on my QNAP NAS via docker. Was able to map all the directories correctly and stumble through setup well enough to load channels through my IPTV provider. I am using the Kodi 19 client on the same LAN as my QNAP NAS running the server.
I have Timeshift disabled and am only using the Realtime setting in the client.
I am using an M3U playlist to import channels and a XMLTV stream for the Guide.
On most channels when watching for a few minutes the client skips backwards 1-2 minutes randomly. I have tried various client machines with the same results. I can't seem to pinpoint any sort of pattern.
Since it was a Docker container deployed to my NAS I would classify myself as a very basic user. I've posted logs. Was hoping this was a known issue. I did see another post complaining about similar issue on an Android client but the post didn't have a resolve. There was some mention of a .ts change but it was above my head and not very clear what needed to be done.
Any help appreciated, other than this weird bug I am loving the simplicity
NextPVR Version: 5.2.7.220410 runs here quite smooth in an Debian LXC on Proxmox
Installed from the deb package (not a docker)
But it fails when the live TV buffer directory or the recording directory are changed to a Cifs share
CIfs share is mounted on the host
And then added as a mountpoint to the LXC
I'm doing the same in another LXC with a torrent client without problems
root@NextPVR:/mnt/download# ls -la PVR
total 2
drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody nogroup 0 Jun 21 12:44 .
drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody nogroup 0 Jun 21 06:25 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 nobody nogroup 26 Jun 21 12:44 test.txt
I can create and edit files there with Nano there
PVR can create directories and files but the size stays 0
I'm not very good with Debian and quite lost now
Is there a way to update the BASH command line arguments in the DB without uninstalling the Extras Tuners. I have the system up and running quite well (with some issues that are in-progress fix at the moment). However, I changed the command line options in the extras.xml, but NPVR still has the older script options.
I assume the change has not be actioned is because the CHANNEL_MAPPING.locator.args is already defined, and unless the channels are removed, they wont need updating.
Can the NextTool.dll be used to replace the <args> for the channel mappings, or do I have to export the DB and perform a SQL Query to do that offline?
I have 4 tuners, 3 hdpvr style and 1 m3u. when I tune to hdpvr a (usbuirtsend) it flashes to hdpvr b (irss) It works correctly if I call usbuirtsend.exe from terminal. I have attached logs.
My problem is almost the same as the unresolved tid=62031 except I am using Xubuntu 22.04 LTS, not Ubuntu 20.04. On my "normal" install there were 6 missing dependencies for "nextpvr-helper.deb", all of which I resolved except: "depends on libssl1.0.0 | libssl1.1 (>= 1.1)".
I installed libssl3 which is >= libssl1.1 from my default Ubuntu 22.04 repository, but it was ignored as shown below in my Terminal Log:
dick@NPVR:~/Downloads$ sudo dpkg -i nextpvr-helper.deb

The tid=62031 last post suspected NPVR.zip, so I have its checksum to verify:

I also tried these replacement install attempts that failed with:
E: Package 'libssl1.0.0' has no installation candidate
E: Package 'libssl1.1' has no installation candidate
E: Unable to locate package perl-openlibssl-defaults
Attempting my first NextPVR install but getting repeated failures.

Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I have purged and re-installed a few times now and don't know what else to try!
Is there something fundamental about this setup that I am missing?
All help and hints gratefully received.

There had long been a popup box on the screen for users to "Save" but about a month ago, the "Save" button disappeared. Problem exists in Chrome, Firefox and Edge browers running the latest version of NextPVR locally on Windows 8.1. Why did it go away and how can I get it back. See attached screen shot.
Howdy, first off I must confess both programming and Linux are not in my wheelhouse of familiarity and I am just now starting to learn. Please ELI5 if you can figure out the issue/what I did wrong.
I started off installing the official nextpvr docker image on my synology NAS. Watching LiveTV over my IPTV provider worked great on my Nvidia shield TV Kodi client, but I noticed some recordings would get cut off at some point during the process and this error would repeat in the log:
Quote:[36] HTTP input source starting
[36] Unexpected error in HTTP input source: System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
at NShared.Shim.InputSourceHTTP.WorkerThread()
Since then I've switched to marklambert's custom image with comskip and I'm happy with the results of my IPTV service except for two issues:
Some recordings (once or twice a day maybe) are getting cut off and returning the same error I described earlier.
EPG is not automatically updating, but works fine manually updating from a web url XMLTV source. (I noticed this yesterday when the guide data stopped)
Small side note: I'm curious what the <EPGUpdateHour> option is for in config, as adjusting the automatic epg update time only changed the <EPGUpdateTime> option below it.
