When I tried to switch a program in the Client's TV Guide to Live TV it basically got stuck and froze same when I clicked on "Live TV".
Thought maybe the program was corrupted since I thought Live TV came from the TV Tuner card in my PC and not the Internet. So I used the NPVR Setup installation .exe file to reinstall it but forgot it needs an internet connection to download the latest version .exe file and I had a older version downloaded of NPVR.exe file on my drive.
Live TV did work in Firefox NPVR web app though but not in the client.
Today I got my DSL Broadband working again and now NextPVR Live TV is working normally again. A little slow to start but works fine.
KODI was working normally as far as recording TV shows and playing the recordings except with KODI Extensions that requires a Internet connection to work.
So I was just curious as to why "Live TV" stopped working in the NextPVR Client when i lost my Broadband connection.
I noticed my guide was way out of date, so I attempted to do a manual update and got this error "Server offline for maintenance" My guide currently has only 1 week of programing. However, that isn't entirely do to the issue, since I use Ethernet tethering with my phone for home internet and sometimes fail to hook up for a few days. However, I was hooked up a couple of nights ago, so the problem must have been there at that time. My SD account is paid through February. What could be wrong? Here's a link to the logs https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DgEIr-W...drive_link I tried deleting all older logs from the zip, but it's still over 2mb.
Current setup as per signature all using NextPVR v7.0.3.250920
On this occasion the recording was made, correctly (kind of), on the RPi4 server.
The issue that is causing me problems is not with the recording itself but why the recording was made ?
As you can see the recording started at 15:59 on Nov 28 and completed at 17:05. However this recording was not scheduled by me and the path/filename is completely incorrect for any of my NextPVR recordings:
From the recorded filename used however I can tell that this is a previously imported recording (from my old Humax box) which I transferred to NextPVR some 3 years ago.
So what caused this programme to get recorded again with an old file name ?
I'm running a Digital Devices OctopusNet SAT>IP receiver for DVB-T2 on a Panasonic TV via network. This works well for over 5 years now.
Currenty setting up a NextPVR instance. Looking at devices I got 4 DVB-T, 4 sat and 4 DVB-C devices. This is ok since all 4 tuner can receive terrestial, sat and cable signals.
Scanning a DVB-T tuner for channels reports 0 channels found. Running a scan on OctopusNet revealed 60 channels.
Looking at the logs there are scann requests like
logs/nrecord.log:2025-11-28 11:36:56.657 [DEBUG][17] About to scan: rtsp://192.168.178.10:554/?freq=490&msys=dvbt&bw=8&pids=0,16,17
I've got an m3u list for VLC that works. For the frequency above it contains
Intermittently, playback of both live broadcast or recording will exhibit slowed and garbled audio, then pixellation and freezing. Problem corresponds to approximately 11/25/2025 18:24 in the attached logs.
I have 2 IP TV sources and 4 OTA sources. Both have channel 4.1 mapped and merged so channel 4.1 shows that it has 6 sources.
The 2 IP TV sources are at the top of the list under devices.
When I tune to 4.1 it is using the OTA tuner.
I can force it to use the 2 IP TV sources, but as soon as I reboot it reverts back to using the HDHomeRun Quadro OTA tuner.
What am I doing wrong? OTA works 95% of the time, but more and more lately I am ending up with corruption in the recorded files so I want to default to the IP TV streams unless I need more than 2 recordings at the same time.
