I had previously installed NextPVR with a Hauppauge Collosus 2 PCIe card in 2023. I had successfully imported channels from xmltv at the time and I believe it was auto updating. I was unable to get Hauppauge IR Blaster to control my Bell (Arris) 2502 STB however and gave up for a long while.
This week I tried harder and I was able to get the Hauppauge IR blaster to learn the IR codes from my Bell remote.
And I wanted to use the NextPVR IR blaster wrapper to PVR but I soon found I was unable to update the NextPVR channel listings.
I foolishly emptied my EPG and then tried to setup the device and update the channels and listings. Nothing was imported (0/0/0). I then noticed that the Hauppauge device was showing as a HDPVR (Sienna Crossbar) and not the Colossus. I updated Hauppauge Capture and WinTV10 to be sure I had the latest drivers. Windows device manager is showing I have the latest drivers for the Colossus. I uninstalled NextPVR and reinstalled only to fail again at importing channels and the device in NextPVR is still showing as HDPVR. Hauppauge Capture and WinTV10 are both working as they should. NextPVR will not import channels for my device. NextPVR is even saying no devices are active even though it appears in the device list.
I am stumped. Any suggestions appreciated.
Log file attached.
Thanks
Hi,
I've just installed Nextpvr on my ubuntu laptop. All fine except the dvb channel scan from my hauppauge usb receiver. I just can't find a profile able to find more than 5 channels. I've used W_scan to create a list of channel and converted it to a format like the .conf file as found in the /var/opt/nextpvr folder, it's much more quicker than having to try 40 different scan profiles, but that list is not taken into account into the backend.
I'm wondering if there's a way to import my custom channel list, cause frankly having to spot the right scan profile is not working for me (not even the closest location!).
Hello,
Don't know if it's the right place to ask my question ..
I use NextPVR on Intel PC (server) windows 11 pro.
I use dvb-t2 tuner all is ok.
I want to add a free iptv channel : https://viamotionhsi.netplus.ch/live/eds...eplus.m3u8 but no success (video but no sound on RPI5 Libreelec-Kodi)
I wanted to resolve this problem by making a extras file and use ffmpeg to map stream audio and video that I want but no success
Hi everyone, I'm considering purchasing the TBS-6209se DVB-T2 card and then the TBS 6909 DVB-S2. I'd like to know if they're compatible with NextPVR and if anyone has any suggestions/advice from those using them: 4K support, channel switching speed, installation tips.
Thanks for your help, Marco.
Just posting this solution to possibly help others.
For years my HTPC wakes up in the middle of the night for the EPG update. Recently (after a Windows update?) it would still be awake in the morning despite no active power requests. Logging in to check or just moving the mouse with the TV still off would allow it to sleep again. I then remembered that Martin had taught me about "System Unattended Sleep Timeout" here and setting the desired timeout there fixed this problem.
Is there a way to disable the login screen/auto-login the "admin" user? My NextPVR server is behind my firewall and will not be exposed to a public network (and I haven't changed the default creds anyway)
I downloaded Nlite last night. Modified date on the exe is 2024-11-14. Specs for my NextPVR configuration are in my signature.
Tried to run Nlite with no parameters and received the "No NextPVR servers were detected on the network"
Ran Nlite with
nlite.exe -server:x.x.x.x:8866:0000
Nlite GUI display with guide. Select a program, select Watch
Nlite thinks for a while, the screen flashes and the guide is displayed. No video or audio stream is displayed/heard.
