I'm looking at changing my EPG provider from Schedules Direct to the XMLTV feed now provided by Channels DVR (it's a longer story, but basically I'm using Channels to get TV Everywhere channels into NPVR, and I get guide data with that).  I've figured out all the steps to do this, but I noticed in my development environment that when I changed the EPG, episodes I've already recorded are showing up in the pending queue again (which isn't necessarily a surprise). And it's loads of episodes of stuff because it looks like the XMLTV feed doesn't provide information on NEW episodes, so even stuff that isn't new is now set to record.  Is there a way to mark an episode as already recorded? I know I can cancel the recording, but I'm pretty sure that just cancels it until next time it's on again. If I'm going to have to do that forever, I'll just stick with the Schedules Direct EPG.

Thanks.

I have installed the Android App on the Nvidia Shield 2019 pro.  It plays channels and recordings OK from NextPVR 5 installed on my laptop.  However when I go into the guide I can move up and down the guide but when I select a program the app does not let me select Watch, Record Once or Record Series.  It does not do anything so the only thing I can do is back out to the guide without being able to select watch or record.

Is there anything |I can do to enable this as otherwise this is a perfect solution for my shield.

Is there a way to make the preferred(default) view for web app Recordings "All Recordings (List)"?  I couldn't find anything in Settings.

There's this ... https://us.cnn.com/2020/12/22/tech/illeg...index.html

My reading of it suggests that it is aimed at IPTV providers ... I assume that none of them are in the US and that they will give this a damn good ignoring.

Today I am releasing two exiting new Extra devices for NextPVR.  

Detail for these "Extras" and request for new extra devices from other legal non DRM-ed content can be requested in the the Extras sub-forum
https://forums.nextpvr.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=64 too. 

Please, support posts should not be posted in this thread.

1.  Pluto TV  content from https://pluto.tv/    Content is based on your country.  UK and US users will find a lot of information.  It can actually be overwhelming so check the website to see for yourself

Comes with guide data too unfortunately it is only about 5 hours worth at a time.

Installation instructions here https://github.com/sub3/NextPVR/wiki/Extra-PlutoTV

2. UK content from https://www.filmon.com/tv/   It is only SD but for users outside the UK you will likely find original content you haven't seen before

Guide  data is available via Schedules Direct and XMLTV

3. Current channel list https://imgur.com/lehmn8A

The installation instructions are here https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?tid=62052

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Combined with the recently released locast.or suppor you can add you 100's of channels to NextPVR without even needing a tuner.

Also a huge thanks to Graham and JavaWiz and ironing out many pre-release issues and to sub for his assistance as always.

This thread explain how to install the Filmon TV Extra for NextPVR https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid550845   

General support questions should be opened in a new thread in the Extras sub forum https://forums.nextpvr.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=64

Once you are ready.

1.  Download and install Streamlink from https://streamlink.github.io/install.html for your platform ensuring you install for all users

2. After installing applications in 2 and 3 you will need to restart the NextPVR server to get the upgraded PATH

3. Unzip the attached into the NextPVR data directory.

4.  Decide whether you are going to use Schedules Direct or XMLTV for you guide source.  Free XMLTV feeds for this service is available but the links can change. For Schedules Direct using I found this "United Kingdom (extended) - Cable" had all the channels.

I recommend installing your source before the next step.

5.  From Settings->Devices selection either extra-filmon or extra-sdnames-filmom which should be in the list, if not  hit the Refresh button and maybe Ctrl-F5

6. Select the channels you want and hit save. Your icons should be downloaded during this stage.

7.  From Settings->Channels->Advanced Tools-> Auto Map  select Extra, you EPG source and use the Names option.

8. Update EPG and you should be good to go.

I don't usually use the Delete in the web app but noticed last night all it does is light up. The Play and download icons do work fine.

Version: 5.1.0.201216

I change this from 60s to any other value, like 59s. Save.

Leave that specific item, but remain on the Guide screen.

Check the setting again. It's still 59s.

Leave the Guide screen, return to the Guide screen, check the setting, it says 60s.

Try do any EPG scan/update, and it uses the 60s, no matter what it was set to in the option.


Is anyone else seeing this behaviour?
