Hi,

i'm trying to find out how to use a command-line tool like ffmpeg for direct stream recording from iptv (non transcode). i need that for quick testing purposes

a basic command line will do the job

Appreciated your help

Why does NPVR create a TS and m3u8 file when recording a IPTV source? The IPTV m3u source has output=ts and records in Emby and Plex fine.
By the way, the m3u8 is always a small corrupted file and does not play.
Is there a way to prevent the m3u8? These are useless and taking up space.

I had used the initial channel setup to establish channels, so I don't know how channels works in here in regard to adding or subtracting, and I didn't see anything in the wiki about it. Can any channels be added to the guide or deleted, one channel at a time?

Looking for some help please on the intermittent issue I have with NextPVR.

My setup is:
Windows Server Essential 2016, running NextPVR v5.0.7.200726
HDHomerun Quattro for Freeview
Nvidia Shield running Kodi 18.7 and NextPVR add-on.

Every now and again, about weekly but no fixed pattern, I have problems such that Kodi is unable to stream live TV.  Playback of recorded TV is fine though I think ongoing/upcoming recordings fail.

Restarting the NextPVR service will generally fix this though usually fails again within an hour or so.  The only way to successfully recover for a prolonged period is to reboot the server.

I did have v4 on here previously and had some trouble uninstalling it, eventually had to resort to deleting the v4 program directory.  Incremental updates to v5 have installed fine.

The NPVR web GUI shows "Root element is missing" next to failed recordings.

Any help greatly appreciated, logs attached.

Does anyone know if I can delete the 15,000 files in EPG cache?  I use zap2xml for EPG update (prior to epg update in v.5).

Hello,
my nextpvr runs on a pi4. i only find m3u with rtp:// addresses for my iptv provider (magentatv) on the internet. With tvmosaic, vnc or tvheadend i can get m3u running. when i import m3u into nextpvr no channels are found. does anyone have an idea? Greetings Stephan

Clearly a "nice to have" as opposed to a "must have", but most other browser based players seem to use space as a pause / play toggle.

If there is another one please let me know - I'm not wedded to space

After lengthy research I successfully installed NPVR 5.0.7 along side NPVR 4.2.4. Version 5 is up & running. The desktop app works and I can watch live TV with it, as well as schedule & record shows and watch them back too.

The web app is another story. If I try to watch live TV, the screen remains black and there is no audio. I am able to schedule and record shows, and even watch them via the web app. It is live TV that is the problem.  Any suggestions? I can provide logs, if needed, later this evening when I am home.

Thanks!
