I'm using the Docker amd64 version of NextPVR, but I suspect that this is not platform specific...
If I initiate a recording from the TV Guide (specifically - click on a program listing, then choose "Record Once"), it looks like NextPVR processes this internally as a request to record the specific station, time, and duration (but not tied to the program name). Most of the time this is not a big deal, but I've had a few cases where guide information has changed after I requested the recording, but before the recording happened. In other words, the program that I intended to record was no longer running in the that time slot - the station aired a different program. In these cases, NextPVR records the requested station at the specified time and duration anyway. A "Record Series" request doesn't have this problem - it seems to try to match the program name with the guide. Anyway, is there some way that "Record Once" requests can keep track of the original program name, and drop the recording if the guide data changes?
My setup has two HDHR devices, each with two tuners. I can scan one tuner of the 1st HDHR device and copy the channels to the second tuner which is normal.
When I do a channel scan on the second HDHR device on a tuner and then copy the channels to the second tuner it copies the channels from the first HDHR device instead of the device I am scanning.
This only is an issue with the BDA tuners. The HDHR tuners work as expected.
Hi,
I'm new to NextPVR and this forum. I have been using windows 7 for a long time using WMC for recording and watching. Since January 2020, been using EPG123 so to stay with WMC. I recently bought a new Windows 10 computer and installed a quad Hauppauge card. Have been struggling to find an EPG for it. When I came upon NextPVR I thought at last I had found it. But, alas, I'm having problems getting it to work. I stumbled upon a server download first. Installed it and tried to follow the instructions in the video accompanying it, however when it got to the part where the tvguide was clicked, my guide had channels alright, but program info was weird in that every channel showed the same info. Upon logging into Schedules direct for each channel to fetch the lineup, I get a popup dlg stating "undefined", even though I picked the lineup from the list provided. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
There is no "DVD" menu option in the main NextPVR menu in the Windows client (V5.1.0). How do I get it to turn on?
Note that I'm using a DVD player that is plugged in to a USB port, and that I didn't have it plugged in when I installed NextPVR. The DVD works with VLC.
The reviews said that NextPVR was difficult to set up, but worth it. I'll say. It is a wonderful program.
But I may still need to tweak the setup.
Shortly before the time for the recording, I tried to log in, but could not connect to NextPVR. I restarted the service and it is working. However, I'd like it work without me having to restart it.
I am using a Hauppauge WinTV-dualHD tuner. I moved the server and the antenna and rescanned to get a better list of channels. I had a bear of a time getting the two devices to scan and merge. One device on the tuner recognized 55 channels. The other saw 80. I don't know what I did, but it eventually merged and mapped and worked. But then it failed on an unattended recording attempt with the message: "[Failed: Channel not found. Deleted?]" It has recorded from the same channel before and after stopping.
Logs attached. Do they indicate anything I need to change to keep it running and finding all the channels?

I have started playing with comskip again and have seen a strange error that happens quite often during parallel processing, but NOT during post-processing.
Depending on the show, when comskip is invoked running in parallel, I am seeing "Invalid frame dimensions" errors which eventually results in a zero length edl file. However, if I run the same show as a post process, comskip works fine.
Anyone else seeing this? what could be causing this type of error?
Hi
Can someone recommend which decoders work perfectly in the UK. My channels are all from Freeview and I am using the latest release of Nextpvr version 5.
The problem I am having is that when both live TV and recorded programmes start, the audio is fine but the video lags for about 10 seconds before they both sync.
This also happens when I skip part of the recording.
Please try not to be too technical if possible.
The following are my current settings
Hello,
Having set up NextPVR on a Pi, I can successfully record shows.
However when I try to download a show using the NextPVR web UI I end up with a 0k file named "download". I can use rclone to copy the file and the file has recorded OK.
