On Debian 10 the HDHomerun Tuner is able to fetch DVB/ATSC guide over the air via Freeview as well as being able to watch the channels.However after making a install on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed via the zip file I am able to watch the channels but I can't see the EPG guide via the web ui.Whenever I try to update the EPG it doesn't work and says 0 channels updated.
Using the Roku remote control with NextPVR can be a bit challenging as there are not as many keys as you might find on a TV remote. That seems to be the nature of all new players though and I tried to make things as usable as possible. To use the remote please review the keys and the Remote Extensions in the following link https://github.com/emveepee/Testing/wiki...dReference A long press means holding the key for a half a second.
These instructions require you to make this change in config.xml
In addition to the NextPVR keys there are a few other things to note.
- The Remote Home key will exit the channel but leave you in the same screen when you return, if you want to Exit completely use the Exit option on the main menu.
- A long press on the * key will provide a channel specific Options Menu, use this to select a server if you have more than one, enter a remote IP or configure things if you run V4 and V5 together or access NextPVR remotely. Also disable Direct Play if your Roku player doesn't support AC3 audio.
- Hitting * during video play will provide an option to show North American closed captioning. I tried to enable DVB subtitles but it is not clear it is possible.
In NextPVR hitting long press on OK will open a secondary dialog. There are currently two choices
- select numbers with left or right , this can be tricky RW and FW cause it number to move 10x but useful for percentage jumps in long lists and channel changing in the guide or live TV. If you hit a number in a recording then you still need to use the left or right key or navigation. If you wish you can select the number withe the play key which is the same as number followed by the right key
With the up/down key you select colours on the Recording screen
Please use this thread to ask questions of provide suggestions on ways of improving remote navigation.
I am happy to announce a new client for NextPVR using a Roku channel. This channel will provide users with the same Look and Feel as NextPVR.exe for Windows and for knewc and nlite on other platforms.
This is pretty much a worse case scenario since I am playing from a remote NextPVR server over the Internet, using Locast.org not a tuner which is also receiving over the Internet, and playing on low end Roku player using 2.4 Ghz Wifi.
If addition to NextPVR Live TV and Recordings you will be able to access your Video, Music and Picture Libraries including playback of mkv, mp4, webm, mp3 and FLAC files containing many formats.
Over the coming days I will provide additional posts on how to install the channel and additional information in the new Roku client support sub-forum https://forums.nextpvr.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=65
If you would like to test this client on your Roku device please send me a PM.https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?tid=63677
Thanks to VCR58, BrettB, UJB and ElihuRozen for testing this and of course to sub for making NextPVR and the UI Client interface possible.
I wanted to watch the news but only yesterdays news was recorded. Then I notice several show to be recorded weren't highlighted in red as usual to indicate they would be recorded. If I click on the shows it offers to cancel recording or cancel series but I don't think it will actually record based recent shows that should have recorded and did not.
One thing I've noticed when using NextPVR is how slow it is (well on my setup anyway) to delete a recording. My set up is as follows
Synology 918+ with NextPVR v5 in Docker
Windows 10 & multiple Nvidia Shield clients using Kodi & PVR addon
When I delete a recording in Kodi there is a long pause before I'm then able to move on to the next which I didn't notice when using TVHeadend in a Docker container. Is it possible for the deletion command to trigger the delete but then allow the user to continue with their activities?
Below is a log of deleting a single recording which took 6-7 seconds. Deleting a folder of recordings in Kodi can bring the system to a standstill for over a minute

But one of my local stations changed frequencies and that required me to remove all the channels and rescan. The dual tuners scan properly, auto merge and auto map seems to work and updating the EPG populates the guide nicely. The problem is that every channel I have tried to watch returns a "Failed to Start Requested Stream" message.
What am I missing?
I am in big trouble if I can't get this working before March Madness games tonight.
Because my January PR for Jellyfin has not been approved, the Jellyfin addon will fail for Live TV, unless users change Settings->Access to enable "Unauthenticated Access".
A developer did thankfully catch a bug in my initial submission which I fixed a couple of weeks ago. I did follow up over a week ago and still did not hear back so it is not clear if the updated addon will be released . This is part of the ongoing support release issue I have with Jellyfin, too much effort is required to have the code released.
As noted in NextPVR this setting is not recommended if the NextPVR server port is exposed to the Internet and you should consider using other clients for Live TV.
As a test I installed the latest LibreElec 10 Beta on my only PC running LibraElec. The NextPVR New Client seems to work OK apart from a problem if WOL is needed. If the server is down the normal WOL popup does not appear just the rotating circle. The server does start but the rotating circle just continues until I cancel the operation. If I now start the New Client it now starts and runs as normal.
1. I have this message: "Version: 5.1.1.210329 (5.1.1.210328 is available for download)".
2. After time-changing I have 1 hour delay and I can't find the way to correct it.
I use win10 and auto-change the time. Windows has a correct time but when I start some channel to watch from "channels.html" I have 1 hour delay at right side.
At same time all the epg times are +1 hour. Are there any way to correct it?
