Hello, I'm not sure if this is normal but my storage does not go back to what it previously was when I delete a recording, which has left me now at 9% remaining with no recordings, can anyone advise how to fix this?
sub,
Not sure if this is related to the other currently recording playback issue or not.
I can watch a recording in progress from my Colossus 2 tuner. However, last night I started watching a 3hr recording that was in progress and about 15 minutes in, my attempts to skip or manually set the playback position using a mouse only restarted playback. I wound up watching from Emby Theatre for a bit, which worked ok.
(I also have disabled comskip a few days ago due to inconsistent results with it)
Here is where I started watching:
nlite2.log
2022-04-22 20:21:33.523 [INFO][1] Activity:
...
<recording_name>Gold Rush</recording_name>
...
First attempt to skip:
2022-04-22 20:35:33.094 [DEBUG][1] SetPosition(1134.000000)
This morning, I could resume and manually set the playback position with the mouse. So it appears to only an issue during recording.
Logs attached, let me know if you need anything else.
(By the way, I'm using NLite full time now on 2 client computers, my server is in a back room, but won't be used directly much)
Thanks,
Art

First time I've posted here in a while. I bought another Android streaming device, the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K, and it just arrived yesterday. So I'm going through some very preliminary setup, experimenting, comparing with Shield Tube (updated to Experience 9 and Android 11), seeing if apps I can run fine on the Shield will or will not run fine on the Xiaomi (also at Android 11), etc.
So specifically I'm using the SD Flex 4K tuner, with HDHR DVR engine server to support it. Also, NextPVR 5.2.6 Server. And then I've got the HDHR client app running on both Shield and Xiaomi, along with uiDroid client app also running on both Shield and Xiaomi. I'm specifically focused on testing support for the ATSC 3.0 channels, to see what/quality of sound is produced out of my 5.1 audio system.
I'm not very far along past day one playing around, but one thing I have noticed is that uiDroid does not seem to be able to PLAY A RECORDING. This is true both on the Shield as well as the Xiaomi. I don't know that I've ever really tested playback of a recording with uiDroid, so this issue may be long standing and I just never knew about it until today.
There's no problem playing live programs (both ATSC 1.0 and 3.0) from the Guide, setting a recording from the Guide, etc. I actually have three recordings I've now tried to play back and all of them fail to begin (once I push the PLAY button). The app is apparently "stuck" as soon as I push PLAY, and is totally unresponsive to any additional remote key presses. Eventually the app appears to crash I'm guessing, and I'm re-presented with the top-level Android TV Home Page screen of either Shield or Xiaomi. These are all ATSC 3.0 recordings.
Again, no problems at all playing live TV. Only this issue playing a recording. Clearly the app is getting "stuck" or "in a loop"or something, because once I push PLAY it becomes 100% non-responsive, until it crashes and I'm presented with the Android TV Home screen.
I will do some more experimenting and data gathering, and varying whatever I might think can be varied, to see if I can get ANY recording to play. I've upgraded to the very latest APK available and that's made no difference. Still won't play a recording.
Is it me and BOTH of my Android devices?? Or is uiDroid??
I believe I've spotted a minor bug in the xmltv file EPG import process: NPVR *appears* to be assuming Series 01 if there's an episode number but no series number in the xmltv_ns episode_num field, and assuming Episode 01 if series # but no episode # present. For example:
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">75 . . 0/1</episode-num> input is showing up in the EPG as 'S76E01'
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns"> . 7/8 . 0/1</episode-num> input is showing up as 'S01E08'
I'm pretty sure it's not actually an assumption being made (I know sub's noted in other threads that he doesn't want to do that as it's so frequently wrong) - rather I suspect it's the result of a string-to-number conversion that's producing '0' for the null/empty input, which given the zero-based numbering of the xmltv format is then showing in the EPG as S01 or E01.
(No such issue occurs with the direct DVB/ATSC EPG, when compared to importing from an xmltv file produced from the same original DVB source.)
I got a new computer and installed Next PVR. I'm trying to set up the EPG for xmltv, but it's not working. It's set to default DVB. But when I try to change it to XMLTV, nothing happens after I click Save. I tried it both with individual channels and automap, neither work. What do I do now? Logs attached.
I have been having some problems with NPVR lately. Mostly when rewinding or forwarding live TV, it usually, but not always freezes when trying to resume playing. Also when playing live TV or a recording NPVR will also freeze. If waiting long enough the program will close. I had been right clicking and closing then reopening NPVR. But today I discovered I can just rick click and stop the recording (do not know if this works on live TV).
Earlier today I learned that a new version was available so I updated. I made a video of what happens now. Please watch it here
I think this is an Arch issue but just in case will post here as only NextPVR is affected as far as I can tell. It appears by my limited knowledge to be dotnet that is causing the problem. Below is screen output when starting NextPVR using
Code:
/opt/dotnet/dotnet ./NextPVRServer.dll
Code:
craig@Arch ~/NPVR/ $ /opt/dotnet/dotnet ./NextPVRServer.dll

Here is a snipet of the journalctl just before a core dump.
I was watching an in-progress game today an about 1:40 timeline or so the video seemed to have a stutter or something and then it started jumping ahead to live all by itself. The channel is one of the QAM SD. I was watching about 15-20 min delayed.
Hope the Nextpvr logs will show something. I didn't get the Uidroid logs.
