Hi. Thought I would mention that client setting for start ui in fullscreen is not remembered. Oddly there is no save button like ver 4. I recall you mentioning something about scaling ways back... but my display settings show 100%. i was using a win 10 ver 20h2 OS with : Google Chrome [color=var(--cr-secondary-text-color)]Version 87.0.4280.88[/color]
Hi. There must be some sort of mapping bug or parsing problem or timing issue in the collection of ota epg data. Lets start with Dec 31 at 7pm. In this example WGRZ channel 2.1, ANTENNA 2.2 have no epg data but channels 2.3 and 2.4 (CRIME and QUEST) have data. If I watch the channels with no data directly without npvr for comparision I see data for the current show and the next show. And then for all four 2.x channels so I know its there. Similiar thing seems to happen for channels 4 and 7 and more.
Oddly american Channel 17.1 WNED PBS is showing the epg data for channel 7 WKBW an american ABC network with shows like 7 eyewitness news at 7 and then Dick Clark New Years at 8pm on this day. This suggests that maybe all epg data arrived but has been parsed incorrectly for american channels by the npvr app??
On the other hand the data for canadian chanels like CBLT 5.1 and CITS 14.1 is correct. this is even odder.. why does it fix itself on a canadian channel but error out on american?
Any help on this would be appreciated. It appears NextPVR is failing to run scripts that are set to be run by python 3.
I have epg set to update every hour at 15 minutes past the hour, like so "00:15 01:15 02:15" etc.
It has been working great since installing Nextpvr, but recently it stopped working. I've been modifying my epg grabbing scripts, although they run fine if I manually run the .bat file.
This is my UpdateEPG.bat in "C:\Users\Public\NPVR-data\scripts"
Code:

I'm unable to attach my logs "Your allocated attachment usage quote in NaN MB", but did find this in the nrecord.log. First interesting thing is, it appears to run at 45 after the hour instead of 15 after. Second thing is it says it can't find python 3 although of course I have python 3 installed (and as I mentioned I can run the script outside of nextpvr by just double clicking either of the UpdateEPG.bat files).

Attached is the first attempt at providing additional support for HDHR devices. It serves two main purposes.
- For Extend devices you can specify transcoding profiles.
- For the new ATSC 3.0 device it can transcode using experimental ffmpeg.exe that does AC4 decoding to AC3 so recordings and Live TV should work on Kodi and other NextPVR clients. NextPVR web access will likely be limited to powerful PC that can do h265 to h264 transcoding in real time.
This script creates multiple extras for each tuner on the device.
This should work on other platforms but I have only compiled ffmpeg for Ubuntu 20 at this point. I don't have access to these ATSC devices so there is no telling how the performance will be.
Hi all. Could someone please comment if OTA EPG actually works in this version for users in USA or Canada? I am helping a person set up their pvr and we want the simplest possible setup with no ongoing expense. We realize that one only gets a 4-10 hours of epg at a time depending on the station etc... but that is not a big deal with a computer like this updating all day long if its left running. This person would be perfectly satisfied with this.
My experience so far is that I have not seen OTA EPG work with Hauppauge x-box/PC tuner or the USB dual tuner USB key and nextpvr. Is this likely to be a setup issue or the feature is not in working order in ver 4 despite the documentation? We could use ver 5 if it works there.
Hi all,
I have been experiencing freezes at the end of a program on and off for some time now. It happens at the end of one show and before the next. Kodi sits at a frozen frame on the screen. I am able to bring up the menu and hit stop. It takes an extended period of time, but eventually kodi responds and I can start watching again. I pulled logs as soon as it happened, you can find them attached. I'd love to help solve this one ?
I just reinstalled NextPVR v5.1.0.201216 on Ubuntu v20.04 LTS. Thankfully I was pretty good about documenting what I did the first time on Mint v19.3, much of it was applicable.
So I have everything working (that I've tested so far), EXCEPT the OSD that shows playback status in the client. I would have guessed it was a Kodi/knewc issue, but it's not just the local client on the server that has the problem, it's all of my ODroids and RPi4 too, on which nothing has changed.
I went through config.xml but couldn't find any settings. I had copied config.xml from my Mint v5.1.0.201216 install anyway, and the OSD was working there.
I feel like this is something simple I missed, but after battling it for the last hour thought I'd see if anyone knows what I missed off the top of their heads.
Logs attached, at 16:50 I started playback of "88th Annual Christmas in Rockefeller Center", and once playback started I tried the Blue Button and some skips, none of which popped up the OSD.
I'm trying to use NextPVR on the Apple TV with an infrared remote, and seem to be running into a couple of problems:
1. During playback, pressing the "select" button brings up the time bar on the bottom (and pauses playback), the same as a click on the trackpad on the stock Apple TV remote (the so-called "Siri remote"). However, with the IR remote, there does not seem to be any ability to move forward or backward in time - left and right button presses have no affect.
2. This one is less serious. Pressing "select" a second time restarts playback - again, same as a trackpad click on the Siri remote. However, the trackpad click also makes the time bar disappear, whereas the "select" press on the IR remote leaves the time bar visible. So apparently a trackpad click (Siri remote) and a "select" (IR remote) aren't quite equivalent.
Also, I have a feature request that would probably apply to either type of remote (but might not be possible on the Siri remote - not sure). Would it be possible to add some method of moving forward or backward by some fixed interval (perhaps 15 or 30 seconds, for example)? Or is there already some way to do that?
With a core changes in the Jellyfin nightly for live TV a few days ago LiveTV from NextPVR started working.
I also identified some issues with their series handling and have found that if you disable "Play next episode automatically" and "Show next video info during playback" recordings
For those interested in testing the nightly you might be OK to let me know if there are any other problems with the addon itself.
Jellyfin developers don't consider any issues with NextPVR blocking for release and won't look at it because NextPVR backend is not open source, so it is up to you guys to help test.
Edit: Good news though a developer crobibero took the time install NextPVR and find out what was broken with recordings and he create a server patch so if the PR gets approved things look much brighter.
Installed latest version of NextPVR on a new desktop pc. Have some questions about default values and settings I used to use that I can't find anywhere in current version:
Is blocking shutdown while recording a default setting? If not, where do I set it?
Read that NextPVR defaults to skipping commercials while recording. Does that mean I can skip using ComSkip?
Used to use channel groups, i.e., Primary Channels, Movie Channels, and Documentary channels. Is there a way for me to do that?
Used to channels by Genre. Is there a way to do that?
Downloaded channel icons and selected "Name and Icon" in settings. Not seeing it.
