Just a quick question: after recording, my laptop will not go into standby. I have checked the standby settings and in normal use it goes into standby with no problem, but after recording a programme it stays on, usually until the following morning when I can switch it off. It's an ageing laptop, a Lenovo G570 running Windows 10.
Not all Roku devices cannot handle all TS files that NextPVR can record. Also skipping, resume, comskip etc all are noticeable slower and potentially not as accurate as with indexed containers such as mp4 and mkv files.
To solve this issue on recordings I suggest using one of the following two choices to remux from ts to mp4 in PostProcessing.bat. The Roku client will automatically use an mp4 file when found and the resume position is shared with the TS file in other clients.
If your Roku is not AC3 compatible you will not only need to remux you will need to transcode to change -acodec copy to -acodec aac -ac 2
There are more sophisticated options but these give a good start for Roku users. I believe this approach is better the Emby or Plex approach which is to transcode on demand.
A users posted this to me via PM, but I don't support via PM so I thought I'd post it here with my replies below.
I hope you can help me better understand how to solve my HTPC problem. I am currently running Windows Media Center on a Windows 7 Pro computer with a Ceton infinitv-4 card. Up until today, it worked flawlessly. The infinitv 4 accepts a cablecard from my cable provider and allows me to record four channels simultaneously. Today, Windows Media Center started freezing when I try to view or change channels, and nothing I do has fixed the issue. Windows Media Center has been unsupported for years, so I have known for some time that it would have to be replaced. It appears to me that no one piece of software will replace WMC. It also seems that none of the software options available support my infinitv-4 card. If I am to be able to continue to record 4 TV channels at the same time, I believe I will have to do the following:
1. Remove the infinity-4 and replace it with a Hauppauge Colossus2 or similar card
2. Replace the CableCard with a Cable set-top box.
3. Install the NextPVR software to allow me to record 4 live TV programs.
4. Install some Media Center Frontend like Plex or Kodi.
If you know of an easier way to solve my problem, please share it. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
I noticed that a new checkbox labeled " Update existing channel numbers during scan " in the general settings page - what exactly does this do if checked?

Martin, you are baiting us with the testing of the next update, lol. I know this is really for sub, but any idea when this next release of npvr might actually be released?" ENDQUOTE
Martin/Sub,
Is this feature included in most recent release? I don't seem to be able to find it?
There are many generations of Roku players that have support for various video and audio formats. Some older players in particular don't support MPEG video support and many players old and new don't support AC3 audio decoding.
The good news is that most TV's with build in Roku do support AC3, otherwise the options can be limited if your player doesn't support AC3 decoding. First see if you have the option on your TV, receiver or soundbar, you might be able to use AC3 pass through. If not, you will need to disable direct play for Live TV and transcode recordings. Fortunately transcoding audio is fairly straightforward. I will be creating an additional thread for transcoding.
A secondary issue is the the Roku cannot play all MPEG TS containers. Some testers have reported errors on playback, typically reporting "Malformed URLs". These will require remuxing of recordings and disabling Direct Play.
For 4K playback note Roku players do not scale 4K to 1080p.
It probably is a good idea for users to post experience with their hardware with the NextPVR channel. Here are mine:
Roku Premier 3920x. No AC3 decoding but AC3 passthrough works. MPEG TS works with my tuners but MP4 is better. No mute on the remote.
Roku Ultra 4800x. AC3 decoding works MPEG TS works with my tuners but MP4 is better. 16:9 SD MPEG2 video is not rendered full screen. It is a modern player though and can play new media formats like Dolby Vision, AV1, AC-4 in mkv and mp4 containers that many other player don't support.
The information I'm seeing in the announcements is that the new version is 5.1.1.210329, but the Docker image seems to be reporting 5.1.1.210328. That could just be a matter of the Docker image being built the day before (since the minor version number seems to be based on date), and I'm not sure if it matters, but I did want to say something.
