After using V5 for months. I'm prompted for a login. I never changed the default, admin/password. But it doesn't work.
I tried a different browser, Edge which I never use, same failure.
Is there any way to recover?
It isn't the caps lock keys.
Very strange.
Does the setting "Avoid duplicate recordings where possible" only work for tv episodes but not for movies?
If it should also take movies into account, what are the requirements that NextPVR recognizes an existing movie recording?
Where is the history for deleted recording saved, ist it "RECENTLY_DELETED" in the database?
If so, does it only save tv episodes but not movies?
It seems NextPVR uses a SchedulesDirect id to identify a episode recording. What will happen if you change your guide data to xmltv, will it re-record the existing or previously deleted episodes?
I set up, scanned for channels, OK all the pages listed on “getting started”. try live tv and get nothing.
Using windows 7-64bit. pvr version 3.1.1.
also, not using internet. can I program manually?
Forgive me if this is covered elsewhere. I've gotten v5 to work in most respects on my Windows 10 HTPC, but one symptom that lingers is that longer recorded programs (typically one hour) that play to the very end don't just stop and take the viewer back to the recordings menu. The last image freezes on screen, and when I press stop on my remote, the recorded title no longer shows up in the What's New or Ready Recordings screens. It's just gone. If I stop the program before it reaches the very end, the recording seems to still show up. If this could be fixed, I would probably keep v5 installed. If not, v4 here I come (again).
My tuner is an Avermedia H830, though it's probably irrelevant here.
I use NextPVR (and KODI) in my laptop (Windows), and only connect my tuner when I want to watch or record TV.
When the NextPVR Service starts (including when starting Windows), if the tuner is not connected, it will show up as "unavailable" in Settings > Devices, even after connecting it.
If I then try to watch or record TV in KODI or NextPVR, or update EPG, it fails.
Even after going to Settings > Devices and pressing "ReScan For Devices" it still fails, even though the tuner no longer shows as "unavailable" in the list.
If I restart the NextPVR Service with the tuner connected, it starts working.
This didn't happen in NextPVR version 4.
In version 5 it seems like, when starting, NextPVR marks the device as "unavailable" if it's not connected and then never tries to see if it's connected again.
It would be great if NextPVR would check if the tuner is connected yet before doing it's thing.
Is there any settings that could solve this?
Can anyone help me to turn on subtitles, mainly for recording TV programmes in the UK?
I have searched the forum for an answer, and I found a thread which identified a parameter set in the Config.xml file but not sure how it should be modified. Could you explain how the config file must be edited to turn on subtitles please?
1. Make a advanced recording from TV Guide (leave everything default) and Save
2. Go to Scheduler > Pending and edit the one you created in step 1. Notice that the pre/post padding values are the current defaults from Settings > General
3. Go to Settings > General and change the pre/post padding defaults
4. Go to Scheduler > Pending and edit the one you created in step 1. Change the pre/post values to Default.
Actual result: Edit again and you will notice the values are *unchanged*.
Expected result: it should take the current default values from the settings.
The same bug happens when editing the Recurring schedule.
The same bug happens if you choose a "record series"-recording in step 1 (which is logically since an advanced recording with default values is also of type record series (all-episodes))
Btw 1: changing the values to a different concrete value does work correctly.
Btw 2: if you make a simple "record once"-recording it does work as expected.
I am getting very confused. I am trying to migrate off a SageTV system I have been nurturing for 15 years.
My basic need is to have a Client on a number of FireTV boxes (Roku too would be a bonus but not overly concerned). I want the client to have an EPG, DVR and Comskip and the server to use my TBS cards.
So far I’ve been in a merry go round of Plex, Emby and NextPVR. I have bought short subscriptions for the first two but neither supports the TBS cards, but I like their UI and will keep one of them for music and video libraries.
I have been able to get NextPVR up and running with EPGcollector for the EPG. Was pretty easy imho.
My question is what is the best way to get comskipping NextPVR client on FireTV box? I understand the NextPVR plug-in no longer works with Emby. I have setup KNEWC on Kodi but the UI client looks low res and doesn’t respond to settings in Plugin configuration tool.
Am I barking up the wrong tree or should I just throw in the towel and get a HDHomerun for Native Plex or Emby TV streaming ?
