I'm using version: 7.0.1.241229 with a Docker arm32v7. I am able to reproduce a problem here. If a recording is in progress and if I click the "Update EPG" button in the settings, as soon as the progress hits a channel that is set to a DVB EPG, this aborts the recording. It doesn't seem the XMLTV EPG format causes any problem, from my tests so far. I have attached the log files.
Hi! I think Zap2it site is gone, so that means I won't be able to use the epg guide on nextpvr. Heres another sife that I found, but I can't seem to use it for nextpvr. https://tvlistings.gracenote.com/grid-af...ml?aid=lat
I'm trying my hand at Linux, trying to salvage a perfectly good desktop PC that can't run Windows 11. I've chosen Linux Mint, and I'd like to run NextPVR on it. I believe I've followed sub's installation instructions correctly, as follows:
ed@lacrosse:~$ curl https://nextpvr.com/nextpvr-helper.deb -O
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
100 4464 100 4464 0 0 34696 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 34875
After issuing the apt install command, the command line window filled up with output which I have not copied here to save space, but I can recreate it if necessary. Of particular importance, though, it seems, is the last few lines of output:
Setting up libmediainfo-dev (24.01+dfsg-1build2) ...
Setting up nextpvr-helper (3.1) ...
HOME=/home/ed
Processing triggers for man-db (2.12.0-4build2) ...

N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/ed/nextpvr-helper.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)
I'm basically a Linux idiot, so I have no idea what happened here. Can anyone tell what I've done wrong, or do I need to send more information?
Edited to add: Well, I decided to go to localhost:8866 and I ended up in the right spot, so I'll try to configure NextPVR there. Meanwhile, I'm still wondering if I did something wrong to end up with the "permission denied" error.
Another edit: I just finished configuring NextPVR using localhost:8866 and all is well. I guess I didn't do anything wrong?
Hello,
Does NextPVR come with a default playlist? If so, how do I get to it and what is its path? If not, what is the recommended path (with path format)?
I have NextPVR installed on an Asustor NAS. I need to import a playlist. Strangely, NextPVR claims the absolute path doesn't exist, although I can see it with ssh and my other apps can get to it.
NextPVR is installed under Docker but the playlist is outside Docker. My idea is simply to copy and paste over the default playlist if it exists. I guess I still have to provide its path.
I think we, users, can come together and translate the platform into other languages. It's available in English and German. I'm sure some of us can take some time to contribute to translate the application(s) into other languages. I'd like to know the procedure, to have the language file and to translate each entry. I can contribute with French, I'll take my time to translate it properly. Feel free to reply with the required information to get started.
Full list of EPG for many countries can be found here: https://epgshare01.online/epgshare01/
Maybe there are even better sources of EPG out there, that can be used by default when installing NextPVR.
I have just rebuilt my PC with new hardware and a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro 24H2.
I want to use the old Desktop NPVR Gadget, it's really useful to quickly see what is recording and about to record.
I can't seem to get it to work it will not connect to the NPVR server.
When I click on the NPVR logo it tries to open a webpage https://http//localhost:8867/index.html:8867/index.html not http://localhost:8867/index.html
So what am I doing wrong I have all the same settings as my old gadget and have coped the NPVR data files and the NextPVR program files from my old machine onto the new one after the program install.
Do I need to install Java? or am I really missing something, last time I messed with this was in 2021
Many thanks Bob
Hello,
I'm not sure whether this is a NextPVR issue or a Schedules Direct issue (never had problems with either over years of use). However, every time I try to get EPG data from SD for the last couple of weeks (that's how long I've been banging my head against this) I get some permutation of the error (from NextPVR nrecord.log) below:

I tend to think this is a problem with the data coming from SD, but I really don't know. I'm starting on the SD side because I've uninstalled/reinstalled NextPVR with a fresh database. Everything looks fine on the SD side as well, to me, but I can see less into SD than I can into NextPVR.
Any help would be appreciated, even if it's confirmation I need to pursue the NextPVR side of things.
