I'm a newcomer to NextPVR, and so far have been impressed.
I have two AppleTV4 - one is a 4K, the other is a the first gen AppleTV4.
I'm trying to setup streaming for NZ Television (streams courtesy of https://www.matthuisman.nz) - however, I have the following problems:
TVNZ1, TVNZ2 + Prime all will play for about 15 seconds, then freeze, then play, then freeze. Playing from a Windows PC, these playback fine. Same thing happens if I record TV, then try a playback.
Also, Al Jazeera looses it's audio.
I've tried all manner of settings, but nothing seems to improve the feeds. (It *seems* to be related to when the stream is in HD or FHD, 576i seems to be fine, which a lot of the other channels are).
What I have got going is to setup nextpvr to talk to a tvheadend server, with that tvheadend server being set to perform transcoding on the fly - that seems to work.
Unchecking the box to "prefer direct stream" to try and force transcoding doesn't appear to work.
Has anyone else seen this? Perhaps it's a "feature" of tvOS15? (Both units are on the latest tvOS).
couldn't find the answer to this but perhaps I missed it... I have NPVR on my home (desktop) PC. When we travel in the motorhome I take a laptop. I have NPVR installed on the laptop - is there a way to copy recordings from one to the other? I tried the KISS approach (just copied one of the recording sub-folders from one to the other PC) and it didn't seem to work. Nothing shows up under Recordings.
- Enable Alt-G
- Fn Hotkeys to What's "New and Scheduler"
- Use constants in emulate.py
- Long Up to hidden menu (consistent with other clients)
- 10 minute timeout to Kodi from UI Client when not playing media
- Drop to Favourites on timeout
- User defined FN and Hauppauge keys.
- separated recordedtv from mytv, recordedtv maps to Home
Python UI
- Improved tagged deletes in Recordings
- Added sorting in Recordings
Note other UI Clients now include a faster and better 2D rendering method (fast background mode) that is not feasible in knewc
I have an issue where the OK button on my MCE remote stops working. I also have a small wireless keyboard that has the same problem, so I don’t think it’s my MCE remote. It started with 5.2.4.220103 and the problem still is in 5.2.5.220111. The problem shows in your Modern interface. I switched back to your Classic recordings interface which I like better.
Steps to reproduce the problem using your Windows app under Windows 11:
• Record one show of a series
• Play a minute of that show, then delete the recording. The interface will go up one level to show all the other series I’ve recorded.
• Use the up or down arrows to navigate to another series.
• Press OK on the remote. Nothing will happen. I also tried pressing the Enter key on my wireless keyboard. Still nothing happens.
• Press the left arrow then right arrow on the remote to navigate away from, then back into Ready Recordings. The OK button will now work correctly again (until the next time I delete the last recording in a series).
Is there an easy, automated method to add the subtitle to the filename? Also, is there a dummies version of a guide to follow?
In my case, mostly for sports. Currently I'm seeing filenames like NFL Football_2022-01-15_20002300.ts instead of something like NFL Playoff - Las Vegas Raiders at Cincinnati Bengals - Las Vegas Raiders at Cincinnati Bengals.ts that Plex was giving me. Plex doesn't have near the recording options that NextPVR has but I sure like that naming convention I know in the Recordings area it will display the subtitle info but would like to have it in the filename. Sometimes we copy recording to an external drive to view while travelling. I don't know what file to grab based on Title, DateTime unless I start viewing it to see what teams are playing.
I've enabled the following items:
Use S01E01 file naming format if possible
Use Movie.Name.(YEAR) format for movies if possible
Use file names with Plex date format
Avoid duplicate recordings where possible
Look for alternate airings on unresolved conflicts
For the second time in a week, I noticed that "Crikey! It's the Irwins" has been scheduled for recording. I don't see it in the recurring recordings list and I'm pretty certain that we have never watched or recorded it. Is there anything in the logs that might give a hint as to why it keeps getting scheduled?
In All Recordings (classic view), if I open a recordings folder, delete the recording, I can no longer open another recordings folder (Ok button on remote) until I leave the All Recordings view then return.
This is happening with both the NextPVR.exe and NLite.
I can provide a log tomorrow if needed. It should be easy to reproduce.
