I have 3 Hauppauge dualHD tuners. when NPVR records to one of the tuners in one of the dualHD tuner units it lockouts both tuners in that unit. When it stops recording it leaves the dualHD tuner unit locked out. (both tuners) It had been working ok on all 6 tuners (3 USB units) for years. Any response or ideas would be appreciated.
In UK there has been a recent channel update for DVB-T 11 Freeview which has added Sky Arts as channel 11. On my Freeview TV this channel is now visible and so is the EPG. On NPVR the channel is visible but the EPG entry is "(no show details)". However if I search for a programme on Sky Arts and select the discovered channel the EPG entry is available.
I've done an EPG refresh and attached the logs. (Have I attached the logs. Every time I attempt to upload them the tick and cross are greyed out. My attachment quota is exceeded yet all are deleted.) [attachment=undefined]
Anybody know the keyboard command equivalent for a remote control Blue Button press?
My wife used the Blue Button with our PCH's while watching recordings all the time to check the playback position. I have that working on my RPi/Kodi/knewc via a gen2 Flirc USB/IR receiver. However, for some reason if I download that saved .fcfg file with the Flirc software to a gen1 USB unit, it doesn't work at all (not just the blue button, the remote is completely useless). I re-created the config with the Kodi template in Flirc, but there's no "Blue Button" on the Kodi template so I need to find the keyboard command to do it. It's not on any keymapping lists I could find for Kodi. I apparently knew it at one time!
I have been using NPVR 5 happily for some months. Recently I had several recordings which were breaking up. I wondered if a retune was needed. I went into settings and rescanned channels. Then I disengaged my brain, and merged channels. (This is probably because on my old EyeTV setup I used to get a load of duplicate channels). This appeared to merge everything which was a mess. After messing about for a while and being unable to solve it, I reinstalled with the latest NPVR, remembering to copy over the updated NShared.dll that was given to me to fix a previous EPG issue. I also went to /var/root/.NPVR-data and removed the database.
I then rescanned channels and updated EPG.
Having waited over night, I find that some channels have EPG data, and some do not. Some of the basic UK channels have no EPG data, so I know they were working fully before.
Is this something you can make any suggestions for, or should I export the logs?

Just switched my server over to v5 on Linux and am still working through some setup items. My wife pointed out the "Search" (EPG) doesn't work. Running Kodi with knewc as a UI on the server and when I select "Search" from the menu it makes the UI selection noise, but the screen doesn't change. I also can't back out or do anything in knewc. I have to close knewc and restart the addon.
I went and tried it on my ODroid N2 CoreELEC with knewc in another room. On that client selecting the Search menu item results in a black screen that I couldn't get out of until I hit enough remote buttons, I think it may have been the menu button that brought me back to Kodi.
Logs attached. I started messing around with it about 22:05 on the server-kodi and around 22:20 (or 22:22?) on the client-kodi. Based on what I see in the logs, the server-kodi seemed to be doing something called "slideout" instead of search, but client-kodi seemed to be requesting a "search".
So after many tries I did install nextpvr on linux. Great improving of performance for my server.
I am scheduling some timers. but when I go to watch looks like the record works for 10 minutes and stop
but still saying was record for example 30 minutes.
Is there anything that I can do to avoid this?
also watching VOD always crash around 45 minutes
I do have time shift enable on kodi that would be the problem?

Hi I have a raspberry Pi 4 4gb memory and have ubuntu-mate installed on SD 32 GB card with Kodi and have been trying to get nextpvr to install/run / I have been trying to follow any how to's on the net with out luck Jack
but getting the final tweaks, i would like to be able to set a different recording dir for each channel group.
eg Sports to /recordings/sports News to /recordings/news etc.
However when i change 1 in the GUI, it changes for all. I added an extraline in the config.xml as i saw a post on the Windows side - but wondered how to map this extra dir to the group concerned?
I've seen this discussed already and I'm sorry to have to ask again, but the reply answers post links that are dead. Trying to get v5 going with an HDHomerun 3 tuner device. It opens up default browser asking for a username and password.
What username and password? Why is this such a secret(or seems to me)?
Any help would be appreciated. A pointing to a hand holding thread to get started for the first time for Windows 7 users. SiliconDust tuner user. I can't believe how hard it is anymore to find basic info. It never used to be this way.... as in finding simple info. That's on multiple things.
