Hello NPVR community,
  I'm very new to NPVR.  Using the PC ver. for a week. 

Just FYI... my house is in a canyon that makes receiving OTA channels impossible.
I was a subscriber/donater to LoCast before they closed up.  Now I'm here.

2 Questions:
  1)  Would anyone have a recommendation as to a good source of USA IPTV links for solid reliable local channels?
Willing to subscribe to a service if needed.  I found several IPTV services but they seem a bit questionable.  
       Does anyone have a recommendation?

  2)  What is the easiest way to insert a new (.m3u8) link into the channel listing of NPVR when a working link dies? 
I am currently editing a hand made .m3u collection of links then going into settings and go thru several
steps to delete the old link and re-import the new.  Then relink the EPG to the channel.
Is there an easier way?

Thanks,
Ron

RESOLVED: It was a ROKU.com configuration problem as they migrate developers to a different backend. It is fixed now

Is there a problem adding the channel on Roku? I went to https://my.roku.com/account/add?channel=PK6HQLC which is the URL I have, click through the CAPTCHA and the page refreshes without loading the app on the ROKU. I've tried it on a couple different browsers. Is this a ROKU website issue or do I have the private channel wrong?


The Captcha takes and then the page just refreshes with a blank CAPTCHA and does not proceed. I tried it on two different web browsers and also incognito. After it accepts my Captcha ( pictured  on the right) it refreshes back to blank captcha (left). It doesn't proceed to the channel. It's as if the code is wrong or the channel is gone.


I tested it with another private channel, code AE, (A & E TV) (https://my.roku.com/account/add?channel=ae) and I was able to proceed and add that channel. So, it appears the issue might be with the NPVR roku channel.

Going to https://my.roku.com/account/add and using code PK6HQLC does not work.

I've been using NextPVR 4 for sometime. All works well until satellite channels change. Then recordings don't work and the EPG doesn't get updated correctly.

I have an old Humax PVR and when channels change it tells me and asks me to do an update. All recordings continue to work etc.

Is there an equivalent for NextPVR?

Also, is there a service that I can signup to that tells me when satellite channels change? I'm in the UK and the first I know that something has changed is when recordings fail.

When watching a show comskip detects it properly. When playing back it begins to skip, but does not read the endpoint of the detection and keeps going. I have two sets of logs. One from last week. One from last night but pulled today.

Can you check the link to the latest version of NLite as cannot download it!

Hi Friends,

I found removed link of best free VPN's for Kodi. Has anyone tried them before? Which one works the best? Please let me know.

I am currently running 4.25 and I *think* I have properly followed to steps to upgrade:
1) downloaded NPVRsetup.exe
2) shut down server (4.25)
3) run setup

What happens is it downloads the installation file and ends with "installation complete", however no web page opens up and when I restart nextpvr I am still running 4.25.

Please advise how to correct this. I am running windows 10 and 4.25 is working without issue.

If the installer creates a log, please direct me to its location and I will upload it.

I'm running NextPVR from a Win 7 server pc.  My client device (Amazon Firestick) runs on Android and I'm using the Kodi app with it.  I just recently installed the latest version of NextPVR to my server pc.  Now, when I'm using NextPVR either from the server pc or the client, there's a lot of excessive buffering.  Based on what I've observed, I think it's a networking issue that's affecting how live tv functions.  I've used YouTube and Pluto in the same client, but the streaming in these two apps is ok.  Any advice would be appreciated.

I just installed Nextpvr on my computer with a QuadHD usb tuner. The tuner shows up properly. But when I select an ATSC tuner and click on "Scan Channels"', the drop down  Country/Region menu is blank. So I can't scan for channels. The tuner works fine with the Wintv app, but I don't want to use windows.

I've been experiencing a sudden change in channel while I've been watching either via the web UI or via Kodi. While on a channel, it would suddenly switch to a different channel without indicating via the UI. It would keep doing it until I reset the service. I couldn't find a pattern until recently.

I was watching a channel and it changed to a different one around the same time it was scheduled to do an EPG update. 

Please see the relevant device logs below. I have a Hauppauge Dual HD USB Tuner. The first <tuning /> block is the channel I was watching when it happened. Any help is appreciated.
