I couldn't help posting this https://www.walmart.com/ip/Dynalink-Andr.../981542272 since I can't imagine a cheaper ($30) 4K HDR Android TV client for NextPVR for US users. Certified Netflix is a bonus for the cheap boxes.
Using Kodi Lea, Sub's NextPVR plugin and NextPVR v5 (and before that V4) I have never been able to play in-progress recordings, I get a brief moment of the progress wheel spinning and then nothing.
Is it possible to watch an in-progress recording using Kodi and the regular NextPVR plugin or is it only possible using the Knewc addon?
If I change plugin to use Knewc is it compatible with other skins? I currently use emby and have the emby addon and embuary skin.
My NPVR (5.0.9.201026) gets only 5 of 6 DVB-T multiplex in France Paris area.
It doesn't find multiplex R2 on channel 25 (506 MHz). The tuner scan log file looks like it sees the multiplex but il's unable to read the informations included (5 channels : C8, GULLI, BFM TV, CSTAR and GULLI).
My other TV application Poutchin TV, using the same tuners, works fine with this multiplex.
Also TSReader Lite reads this multiplex fine.
Increase the scandroptime parameter in config.xml has no effect.
NPVR log files and TSReader Lite HTML file are attached.
Could someone help me to solve this issue ?
I have started developing an Android TV client for NPVR.
I wish it to have the native NPVR-GUI and playback controls/OSD as well as the option of using my custom playback controls and graphics.
I’d like to support both NPVR4 and 5.
I choose Xamarin platform and using VLC (LibVLCSharp) for playback. VLC allows for excellent playback of many filetypes on Android, including MPEG2 without transcoding.
So, is there a guide on how to use the web-API correctly? Developing my previous clients I guessed a lot and examined Martins python scripts for methods etc.
Now if I build something completely new, I wish to do it right and futureproof from the beginning bearing in mind targeting both NPVR4 and 5.
The basics up and running but...
Currently having trouble with two things:
#1: login with pin. Don’t know if I’m missing a NPVR-setting or not Hashing correctly.
Gets sid and salt, but fails on login, need some (working) .net standard code for generating the MD5-hash.
#2: What are the correct steps and methods to call for using native playback controls and getting OSD to work?
Example code?
Hi.
Lately I installed a fresh version of Windows 10 (20h2) on my TV Server system. I've installed most recent version of NextPVR5 server. In general I have 8 DVB-S2 tuner available. One DigitalDevices CineS2 V6.5 with 2 tuner and one DVBSKy S952 with 2 tuner PCIe cards build into the system. Aside this I have a Triax TSS400 SAT>IP router with 4 Tuner. All 8 tuner are feed from an unicable switch for 8 tuner. Every tuner has it's own frequency slot.
The channel scan in the web GUI shows all needed channels, DVB-S and DVB-S2 ones. Last night I've done a bunch of test recordings from various channels. All recordings from DVB-S channels have worked as expected but all recordings from DVB-S2 (aka HD) channels are only zero bytes "big". It also is not possible to view HD channels "Live" SD Channels are working "Live" too...
With other TV solutions like e.g. MediaPortal the hardware is working as expected. But in MediaPortal you need to tick a mark for allowing DVB-S2 channel scan. I didn't find similar in NPVR. Did I miss something?
I'm not at home now so if something else like logs (or so) are needed I have to add them later...
this is most likely not a kodi problem, but I am putting it here as with Kodi I can get stats...
Same happens with the web interface (web interface shows message server is not fast enough - 0.914x) at 480p profile for instance.
when set to 720p, even to 480p profile and with transcoding, stream pauses for a few seconds every now and then.
You will see that at the same time the nextpvr server box is not at all stressed in terms of CPU or GPU...
I have also prioritized the network from and to this box and also tried to increase even to real-time the priority of the ffmpeg process but same result...
Any ideas?
coming from tvheadend, first time user of Nextpvr.
A couple questions.
server running Version: 5.0.9.201026 on debian 4.19.0-12-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.152-1
client running on archlinux 5.9.2-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu, 29 Oct 2020 17:01:28 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
client version 3.3.2.1
I have auto mapped channels, updated m3u, started, stopped, restarted nextpvr-server.
On the web server I am able to see the groups, however many guide listing show "no listing", these include all of the major networks.
Looking at the xml:
<channel id="USA_Regional_Locals_ALL_EPGKCBS">
<display-name>CBS (KCBS) Los Angeles CA</display-name>
<icon src="http://xxxx.xyz/logos/USA%20Regional%20Locals%20ALL/KCBS.png"></icon>
<display-name>CBS WEST</display-name>
<display-name>CBS EAST</display-name>
<display-name>CBS EAST</display-name>
<display-name>CBS JUSTICE</display-name>
What do I need to look for in the logs, that would indicate some error for missing these?
Using IPTVBoss to edit the m3u/xml from my provider, I have disabled nearly all regional local channels, yet on the epg guide in nextpvr, I see over 300 regional channels, channels which I have excluded from m3u/xml files, there are no guide data, and they do not play, but how is it that these channels are being pulled in?
Within IPTVBoss I have the following:
Network, Low Band, My Locals, My Movies, and Premium Movies
Under My Locals, I've added a couple channels, after starting, stopping, these added channels do not appear, I've updated m3u in nextpvr, checked the logs, I see no clue as to what I' missing.
Is there a way to auto merge channels by channel number? I have one tuner than lists the channel name by call sign, the other uses the name from the EPG (I think). The channel numbers are the same, but I have to manually merge each.
Also, after I do manually merge a channel, the web page re-selects all stations. What is the purpose for this? Doing the manual merge I have to click the select all twice to unselect all channels and then pick the next two stations to manually merge.
My apple TV 4K just installed automatically iOS14.2 and I am facing now some issues with NextPVR. I re-installed it on the Apple TV but it changed nothing. The issue is that I cannot pause and move the time. When I arrive to exit (not working all the time) in pressing the Menu button, It goes out of Nextpvr.
When I select Nextpvr again it restart at the time I left the video without being able to stop it.
A while back I got an email from Cox telling me that I may end up loosing channels because I use a cable card. They tell me to tune into channel 1987, if I can see it, great no issues, if I can't then try to and update MPEG4 on my device.
I use an HDHomeRun Prime, three tuner. In NPVR, I scanned my device for channels, nothing, no channel 1987. The firmware was a few months old so I upgraded to the latest version, 20200907. I scanned again and still no channel 1987. Is that because Schedule Direct doesn't have it in their schedule, or is it because HDR can't see it?
