I have just updated to the latest NPVR and from Kodi epg it is now not possible to save a one off recording.
New timers are fine and one offs from the web interface are OK - just tried the NPVR Client and that's OK as well.

It must be something that changed in the nshared.dll dated 08/07/2021 16:05 as that caused the same thing to happen - reran the installer then to revert.

Logs attached - new log, opened kodi went to live TV and tried smart record on Bargain Hunt. Received Error Unable to save timer.

NPVR & Basic Kodi log attached. 

I will have to install the backup in about 5 hours time before the Remote Control owner returns

Greetings,

From reading several posts I concluded that using the VAAPI transcoder setting was possible when watching live TV using the web browser but I have not been able to get it working. It looks like it is going to work but ultimately it fails.

CPU setting works OK, just wanted to see if the VAAPI setting wil work for me.

Thanks,
Rex

Is there a technical reason the RecordingsService.StoreMetaData is not available via RecordingsServiceProxy?  I'd like to use in in my NextImport to dump the xml file so I can edit it and then update the event_details field.  I prefer using API functions over hardcoding database and xml writing.

The reason I want to do this is the season finale of Clarice didn't include the S/E information with the metadata.  I'd like to use the XML file as the input for an update, editing that field in the database is cumbersome.

Hi

Any ideas on this ?
NPVR is all good except for no channels from Channel9 in Sydney.  

Hauppauge winTV-10 & MediaPortal all good and give nine individual channels from provider Channel 9,  nothing in NPVR

According to MediaPortal CH9 is
Freq  = 191,625 kHz
Band Width = 7 Mhz
Network ID = 4114
Transport ID = 1056

Fresh install of win10 OS,  divers etc all up to date. Did the free win7 to win10 free upgrade before it disappears.  Win11 may kill off the free win7 upgrade soon.

Cheers Bob.

Hi,

I have a box with a USB dongle with 2 tuners and a Silicondust HDHomeRun Tuner.

I have put the 2 dongle tuners to the top of the list, and disabled the HDHomeRun ones.

Problem.  When I play  a channel, it still uses the HDHomeRun tuners....

Silicondust HDHomeRun Tuner 1230E06E-1 (#0)

I am trying to get the the Next PVR to use the dongle, and leave the network one for other machines.

Tried ticking the keep digital tuners primed... not sure what that does.

Also ...  cannot find the option to import the channels from one tuner to another.
  
My understanding is that there should be an import button ?  I do not have one.
The only way I can do it, is to delete ALL of channels on a tuner.  Hit the back button
on the browser, and then click on the now channel empty tuner.  It then ask if I want to
import the channels from another tuner..


Cheers
Peter

Just wondering.

I have noticed that Live TV will suddenly stop playing around the 45 minute mark. In this particular case, I started the first episode of my TV show at 12 noon and the show ended at 12:30 PM. The next episode of the same show started at 12:30 PM and was suppose to end at 1:00 PM. However around 12:45 PM the screen froze and about 2 minutes later the playback of live TV stopped, meaning I was now back to the home screen. The EPG shows the two episodes scheduled as I described. If you reference the attached Kodi Client log, the problem occurs at 2021-07-07 12:45:29.009 T:6688.

BTW, I have a similar problem when watching a 2 hour news program in the morning except the freeze occurs around the 1 hour and 40+ minute mark.

My V5 server (version: 5.1.2.219603) runs on a Windows 10 PC.
My V5 server buffer is set for 120 minutes.
The Kodi client (Kodi addon version: 8.2.3.1) runs on a Raspberry Pi 4.
The RPi 4 is running LibreELEC 9.95.5.

I hope the provided information and logs is enough for you to troubleshoot this issue.

Thanks

John

 Kodi Log

Hi all,

Can anyone help in regards to Windows 10 firewall settings for NextPVR please? Yesterday evening I'd been trying to sort out an unrelated program and its firewall settings and ended up restoring all firewall settings to default.

NextPVR server is working fine, however one of the clients or the Kodi NextPVR Addon on another computer is reporting the following when trying to connect:

NextPVR Addon
Addon couldn't be loaded
An unknown error occured

Which is no doubt something I've done when I reset the firewall settings on the main/server computer as it's been working without a hiccup for the last year. So thought it best to check as to which exact firewall rules need adding again. (Is it just port 8866 needs adding as an incoming rule?)

Thank you in advance for any assistance.
