I thought I had seen where streaming services can be used with NPVR including recording. I am now unable to find any information whether this is possible let alone which services work or how to do this.
My recordings from OTA broadcasts using a BDA 2875 TV Tuner for ATSC record video, but not all sound. The background music seems o be recorded, but there is no voice from the characters.
I am using the following renderers:
Video Decoders
MPG2 Video: MPC-MPEG-2 Video Decoder (Gabfest)
H.264 Video: Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder
HEVC Video: Disabled
Audio Decoders
Mpeg1 Audio: Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder
AC3 Audio: Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder E-AC3 Audio: LAV Audio Decoder AAC Audio: Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder HE AAC Audio: Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder box is checked to Only use mapped audio decoders during .tc playback. I have several .ts files of sizes 2.78GB, 2.63GB, 3.93GB, and 3.87GB. All with the same problem.
Please help me to resolve this recording problem so I can get recordings with the correct audio.
Thank you, David Figueroa figueroa_david@hotmail.com
I am testing out ver 5 finally. I have the server set up on a windows machine and am trying to use a second windows machine act as the client. Am I to understand that the client that comes with the file nextpvr.exe can only run on the same machine as the server is running on? If this is the case..what shall i use to act as a client on a win pc?
Thank you for you tine.
Hello everyone. Happy New year.
I would like to know if there is a way to liven up the program guide in ver 5. It seems kind of bland. I really like the way ver 4 looked. Trying to get it to look more like ver 4.
Thank you,
My setup has run fine for months. This issue start about 2 weeks ago. Every day or so i get these issues now.
Live tv won't stream on any client even the one on the backend pc. I've picked through lots of settings and I'm puzzled. Rebooting the backend pc fixes the issue. Recorded tv or movies play fine.
My setup:
backend- Win10 pc on LAN
front end - KODI on NVIDIA shield tv
I also have KODI and NextPVR client installed on the backed machine for setup and troubleshooting.
If you search the log for "failed" or "root element is missing" you will find the errors.
For some reason I cannot a
upload the whole log.

Hi. I heard that ver 5 can do 4 epg updates per 24 hour period. If that is right what is the correct syntax? does it not autosave?
I have tried the commas to separate the times in an auto dvb/epg update field located in settings/guide. In no case do I see more than 1 waketimer in powercfg /waketimers... how long should I wait after inputting the times? I was thinking it should appear within a minute... or does nextpvr only schedule the closest waketimer until it is completed? adding the next one later. I found the instructions here https://github.com/sub3/NextPVR/wiki/Add...#epg-guide
I think I saw a post mentioning up to 4 updates per day.
Hi. in 4.2.5 this "Channels" right click popup had a couple slightly different functions available.
1) you could pin it up permanently. I dont see any box for that pin here .
2) if you were dealing with an intermittent channel/fringe station that was locking up nextpvr with no signal, you could always pop up this window with a right click and instantly override the fringe channel by making a new selection.
Maybe you could add this to the wish list for ver 5 when you have time?
