I am moving over to v5 from v4 and managed to get 1 device setup and working, is there an easier way to copy settings from one device to another or do i have to do a scan and then sort all the channels on every device?
I used the HDHR DVR Kodi addon in the past and it is able to display the available disk space on the main Recordings screen in Kodi (bottom right corner). Could this be added for the NextPVR addon?
1) Fast-forwarding yields uncontrollable results. The forwarding continues to the recording end at warp speed. Did not have this issue a few months ago.
2) Comskip (v0.82.010) does not auto-process. If I process manually, it works. Log file says no edl file. I thought I followed all the documentation.
IMHO it would be really nice if there was a mechanism similar to the <extras> for importing recordings. Offsite videos can be brought in to the list that way.
Hi. Things were good. I run NPVR on a low power desktop next to my TV. THe device is never off and goes to sleep 10 minutes after we stop watching. That is until I tried to watch a tv show from another part of the house using a new windows laptop over wifi using the new Microsoft Edge (the chromium version I am told) browser.
While watching over wifi to the low power desktop I was replaying a recording. a message popped up on the Edge saying network issue and the replay froze. Never recovered.. so I closed the EDGE window and opened a new one and in about 5 minutes the same thing happened. An hour later I walked by the low power desktop and I notice its not sleeping anymore. runs 24 hours a day.
Anyone have any idea why it wont sleep? Is there some sort of flag set in NPVR that prevents it from sleeping if someone tried to watch remotely and as I got disconnected due to network issues... its still in place? I tried restarting NPVR server.. nothing, rebooting nothing... I noticed a similiar issue a few years ago when trying to watch from an Apple IPAD on OS9 with Safari. The only solution I could ccome up with was reinstalling windows 10 on the desktop. Never had any issues watching with chrome browser or the old edge.
Would be nice if there was something simpler I could try. Appreciate any ideas.
As many you know Windows side of thing has Local ATSC EPG support but not Linux NextPVR and it need the same
The reason for off line EPG you for people how don't have internet
With the recent discussions about the (maybe not immediate) demise of cable cards in the US, I thought I'd start exploring options for an IPTV provider in the US that is legit, does live streams of channels (so not Channels DVR or anything with TV Everywhere), and provides M3U files. The initial research has felt more like an accidental dive into the dark web, but I did find this link to a few providers that, at least on the surface, look like possibilities.
Has anyone had any experience with these (or other suggestions)? I actually wouldn't mind doing something like SlingTV, but it doesn't appear M3U files (or any reasonable integration into NextPVR) are an option.
The really frustrating part is that my provider (Spectrum) provides live streaming of every channel in your package if you are on their IP network (i.e. a cable internet subscriber), but it's only available via a web browser, and there isn't any obvious way I can find to get the stream (or the URL of the stream) to pass to NPVR. Maybe if I get REALLY bored I could try and write an extra that would figure all that out, but that feels like an incredibly complicated thing.
Followup note: see post below about how I did, in fact, get ChannelsDVR to connect to TV Everywhere for Live TV and then use it as an IPTV source for NextPVR.
