Is there a way to export the satellite channel lineup including frequencies, fec etc

Looking for advice to move all past recordings and scheduling rules from one Ubuntu Linux host to another Ubuntu Linux host.

Current back end:
Host IP ends with 67:8866
Running: Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS x86_64
NextPVR: Version: 5.2.3.211114
Live TV and recordings go to: /data1/nextpvr_recordings
user_agent: Kodi/18.9 (X11; Linux armv7l) LibreELEC/9.2 App_Bitness/32 Version/18.9-(18.9.0)-Git:leia_pi4_18.9-Leia

New host will end with .83 same port
Running: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
NextPVR: Version: 5.2.6.220206
Proposed recordings go to: /pvr_recordings
Same user agent

I see a lot of Windows -> Linux threads, but am looking for help migrating from one Linux box to another.

Thanks!

I realize that I'm likely screwed; just confirming.

I recently clean upgraded to v5 (5.2.6 220206) from v4 (and I do mean clean). I use an XML enhancer to modify movie titles in the EPG. For example, I don't see "Wayne's World 2" in my EPG; I see "Wayne's World (1992) [PG-13] [2.5*] (1992)". Not so important for that rather unique movie, but for unknown movies or movies like "The Day the Earth Stood Still" or "The Taking of Pelham 123", it makes a big difference that I'm completely enamored with. I can see a lot about the movie in the EPG grid without even selecting it.

For a long time in v4, the title modifications did not affect the downloading of artwork files for movies. That all changed at some point late last year, very likely related to the nebulous SchedulesDirect changes mentioned by sub in this thread.

Now in v5, all I get for movies with those enhanced titles is the generic "starry forest sky" art in both the web client and the regular Windows client.

I have the settings configured to use SchedulesDirect, themoviedb.com, and tvmaze.com. Manually searching themoviedb.com for "Wayne's World 2" (of course) returns art, but "Wayne's World (1992) [PG-13] [2.5*] (1992)" returns nothing (to be expected).

I really enjoy the additional information in the title, and if it borks the ability to download art for those movies, I guess that's a fair tradeoff.

Any comments? Funny how it used to work fine before SchedulesDirect did their thing...

Hello again collective,

So, I am running Nextpvr with a Kodi client on a Onn android tv box and couldn't be happier, its almost perfect.

Now the bad news and question. I am running Mezzmo on a different computer and the Mezzmo android app is less than Steller and has playback issues. Since Mezzmo is a DLNA server is there a way to incorporate it into NextPVR somehow??

Now I know what your thinking, why not just incorporate it in to Kodi? Well I tried that too and found it terribly glitchy and not very easy to set up, even with the newest version.

Since Nextpvr is my daily one stop shop for my tv needs I would love to see or learn some options if this is already possible.  Anybody???

Thanks,
F.

When i play a freesat channel through Next PVR client on windows 10, i get a black screen with intermitent burst of video.

In the web app there is more video that black screen

I am also using Next pvr as backend for kodi on remote tv. through Kodi it work fine

At a guess i thought it might be video decoders, but swapping and changing between msoft and LAV makes no diffrence

The video is on both MPEG-2 and H264

There are blanks in my Recurring Recordings list on my clients! I noticed it first a month or so ago ago but everything was working as normal so didnt bother to report it. I assumed it was old deleted items and the list was not been tidied up. However today I just selected one of the blanks and up popped a recently added Recurring Recording which is working and listed on the WEB app.

I have now installed the very latest NextPVR version and added a new Recurring Recording which appears in the web app but is a blank on the NextPVR New Client and Nlite.

I've just switched to Freesat, but th eEPG is a bit hit and miss.

I have tried both the DVB/STSC EPG source and the FREESAT source. It either cannot find any guide or has big gaps. This is even on Channel 4 and channel 5 . See attached image 

Anyone having this issue

Hi thank you for this wonderul program.
I have installed NextPVR for the first time, I have version 5.2.6.220206 installed.
I like everything about it, but there is something that bothers me.
I would like to be able to use NextPVR in my PC with my mouse only, without having to use the keyboard.
So I want to toggle fullscreen with a mouse double click.
I have read the forums and it seems that there is an option for it.
I do have in my config.xml
<ToggleFullscreenOnDoubleClick>true</ToggleFullscreenOnDoubleClick>
But it doesn't seem to work, when I double click nothing happens no matter if I am in window mode or fullscreen mode.
I could do it from context menu, but I would prefer being able to toggle with a bouble click like I do in all my media players.
Is there something I am missing? With ToggleFullscreenOnDoubleClick set to true shouldn't I be able to do that?

FYI - Tested with 2 tuners, both live and recorded shows.
Hauppauge HD-PVR (Dish)
Hauppauge WinTV 885 ATSC Tuner (OTA)

These Roku's appear to be working fully:
Roku Ultra LT1 4662RW - 38MPS wifi connection
Roku Premiere 3920X    26MBS
Roku Streaming Stick+ 3810X 36MBS

This one has no audio with OTA (AC3?) recordings, live TV works
Roku Ultra 4660X2 - 31MBS

Hello sub.

Actually, i have a problem with NPVR.

In the past few weeks, i recognized, that if a recording is running at EPG update time, the EPG does not update.

I have 8 Tuners, they are all for the same source. It looks correct in the Device menu. In the station list, i see every station has 8 sources.

So i decided to delete the tuners, and add them new, with a copy of the scan. One after the other: Deleted tuner 1 -> recans tuners -> add tuner 1 with a copy of the scan result / delete tuner 2 -> rescan tuners -> add tuner 2 and so on.

In the devices settings everything looks fine, and live TV and scheduled recordings work.

But if i do an EPG scan, nothing gets scanned. (0 inserted, 0 updated, 0 skipped)

In the "Guide settings" in the EPG setup i only see "seconds per frequency" but no frequencies.

Can you help me, to get the EPG scan working again? I also would hope, that if 8 tuners are available, NPVR should simply take a free tuner if one of them is recording....

Thanks for your help!

Logs are attached.

Peter
