Right-click menu doesn’t have a PIP select option?
Some of the user guides give info for PIP
But there isn’t a PIP option in the right click menu (under live tv)
Some guide screen shots show it being there, some do not?
Setup recognizes both tuners (dual tuner).
Did manual channel scans for both tuners.
Uses tuner 1 on windows client startup. When I change channels - the new channel starts in tuner 2.
Thanks for making a great product
It works better than WinTV (other than the PIP function).
I am continuing to have weird behavior that seems to have started a few days ago (after some experiments with USB tuners) and is still continuing. I previously mentioned the thought of cleaning things out or otherwise just reinstalling from scratch. But, for now, here are the logs (from nrecord.log) of the odd behavior, in case it might help.
2020-05-13 17:00:00.044 Attempted to start WHADT recording for one hour...nothing else going on that I know of...failed with "System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out." and no recording was made.
2020-05-13 17:30:00.195 Did start a successful recording on WKOW
2020-05-13 18:02:45.399 Should have started WHADT recording at 18:00 but something failed at 18:02 (?) and eventually started at 18:04 and recorded the rest
2020-05-13 19:00:00.297 Tried to start WHADT recording, but for some reason delayed until 19:01...then it seemed to work
2020-05-13 19:44:16.522 trying to start WKOW stream while recording on WHADT was taking place...to test if second tuner was working. Yesterday, it was...There was no result or error in Kodi on this attempt.
There are other "Net.WebException" messages from earlier attempts (previous days), but I didn't record the details at the time on what was going on.
Running version 5.0.4.200428, nextpvr Web App. playing a recorded show. When I either seek ahead or seek back in the play back, after the first of second try I get the message "Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)" in red at the bottom of the screen, the play back recovers and the playback continues. After a few seek/forward or seek/back, the playback gets stuck in a loop and eventually quits. Is there something missing or misconfigured? Never had this issue with 4.2.5 or earlier releases

Is there a Docker image for arm64 devices? If not could you point me in the right direction?
I have an arm64 Android TV box running Armbian Ubuntu which runs Home Assistant in a Docker container. It would be great if I could use it for Next PVR instead of having a PC running.
I know the USB tv tuner works fine as I was already using it on that box as a software defined radio to receive 433MHz info. NextPVR seems like a much better idea!
So first of all, I want to thank everyone for an awesome piece of software, and especially for the support on these forums that got me through a couple challenges with setup.
I now have NextPVR setup and working great on a Windows 10 pc. I have a combination of HDHR (1st gen) for OTA and an IPTV service. Antenna placement is tough in my place, but I eventually managed to climb up into the highest reaches of my attic and place my antenna so I'm receiving 85+ reception on all channels. I have near perfect receptions on the host pc and on the web client.
However, when I play it through a client in another part of the house (on the same network), the picture comes in pixelated and choppy, as if reception was still bad. The clients I've tried are:
Kodi on Pi, wifi connected
NextPVR app on Apple 4k (hardwired through powerline network)
MrMC app on Apple 4k (hardwired through powerline network)
I'd blame it on the powerline network, except the Kodi is on wifi and had the same issue. And I can sit right next to the Pi, open up the web player on my phone, and it plays perfectly on wifi, so it shouldn't be strictly a wifi strength thing. The weird thing is that while the pixelation/drops looks like exactly what you get with poor OTA reception, it doesn't really match my signal strengths...a channel that gets 99 reception plays worse than one at 85. And the IPTV streams play perfectly on all the clients.
I did find a suggestion on the forums to disable real time anti-virus on the host PC, so I did turn off Window Defender. That made no difference at all on the ATV, but it may have improved the Kodi playing. It was late last night so I could only watch for a bit, but it seemed like maybe it was improved. Will try more tonight.
But is there any settings or setup on the server PC that would improve the play on the OTA channels on the client? Is it just a matter of the network? But if it's the network, would the IPTV streams be expected to play perfectly while the HDHR streams choke? Would upgrading to a modern HDHR device make a difference?
Just looking for any thoughts or suggestion, thanks again.
Can see in the db it doesn't add the sub-title for movies.

Quote from the guy at guide2go who fixed this on github
Quote:That makes sense. There are three key words in SD that are evaluated.
EpisodeTitle (Used for the SubTitle)
Description100 (Not used)
Description1000 (Used for the Description)
I looked at the code from the old version, where Description100 was used for the subtitle if there was no EpisodeTitle.

This is a link to a Kodi forum post discussing how to set up an HP mini-remote on Linux (under lirc). Maybe it is also of interest here....? You can get these remotes for ~$5 and the receivers for about $10. Looks like:
I'm trying to set up my secondary capture card to show/record from my cable STB. When I go to the Devices page on the Web app, it doesn't seem to want to use my Canadian postal code. Question - do I need to use the space and capital letters, or does it not matter?
(Since I screwed up by entering the wrong password for my Schedules Direct account, I've been temporarily locked out. Being the lazy sot I am, I'll try again tomorrow...)
OK, some of this is on me, and I can probably work around this, but I noticed today after 3 times trying to record Ender's Game from my analog encoder that there appears to be a bug in the way movies are being named (specifically their enclosed folder).
I've attached my logs. The pertinent part is at 06:13 on 05/13/2020. You can see that the recording for Ender's Game starts, and at some point NextPVR decides it should use Enders.Game.(2013).ts as the file name, but it continues to use the DIRECTORY name of Ender's Game (2013). That causes ParallelProcessing.sh to fail with the following error:
bash: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
That's a problem for me because my channel blaster script uses ParallelProcessing.sh to help make sure the recording is actually working (and turn on the cable box if it isn't). I can obviously code around this on my end by assuming the recording is fine unless I get absolute confirmation it isn't, but it seems like the folder name needs to be renamed (or at least single quote escaped in the bash call) to avoid this issue.
BTW, I've posted this in the general area because it likely affects both Docker and Linux (not as sure about Windows). I happen to be using Docker in my case.
i just set up docker on a couple of S905X devices, using local storage for buffer and a mounted smb share for recordings. All is working good so far, however, when i log in to the web app, on the 'about' page, i see the below;
Version: 5.0.2.200322 (5.0.4.200428 is available for download)
running the below command suggests i am on the latest (i think - i come from windows background rather than Linux!)
Code:
nextpvr/nextpvr_arm32v7:latest
how do i upgrade the docker image to the latest, or is it expected that the docker image is a little behind the main release?
