When configuring a new instance of NextPVR for Windows 10, Version Version: 7.0.2.250621.
On the Guide Page, when setting up a new XMLTV based channel lineup, the Add XMLTV Lineup dialog requires either a manual text entry or a copy and paste.
That itself is not an issue, but if you paste a standard windows quoted path (which is typical if the path contains spaces), the dialog will accept the entire string including the quotes without any error, but the guide data won't be selectable for any of the tuners. And there won't be any import errors.
Manually removing the quotes from the string fixes the problem.

I've been using a "no name" Android TV box for a couple of months with UI Client and it's okay and I'm quite happy with it. I've heard good things about the nVidia Shield Pro though and I'm tempted but I'm not sure if it's worth it. Any thoughts gratefully received.
Hi, I've been running nextpvr on a dell XPS 8500 with a 3rd gen i7 running windows 10. it's been working fine for years now. I have 2 HVR-2250 cards that are PCI-e x1 and should theoretically work in a newer system. That's the part I've been struggling with. I just purchased a dell Inspiron with a i5 8th gen CPU off ebay. It has 32gb of ddr4, 2 PCI-e x1 slots and a PCI-e x16 slot. Now, I just installed Windows 11 adn got nextpvr up and running. I installed the tuners and then went to install the drivers. it detected noting. I went into device manager, checked for the cards, nothing. Weird right? That's not all though, I went into the UEFI Bios and checked for the devices in the bios. it says they were empty. to confirm that there was not something wrong with the pci-e slots I plugged in a nvidia quatro p400 gpu that I had from the old machine. that was detected fine. I tried a pci-e to sata controller that uses pci-e x1 and that was detected fine. WHY in the world are the tuners not detected??? I've been searching the internet for clues as to if there is some incompatibly with these cards on newer machines, but I have found no solid evidence. IS there a firmware update? from what i could tell no. Again, I ask
Has anyone gotten these cards working with a modern day system? If yes, please let me know how?
When using the "Videos" tab in the UIClient, there is a green bar in front of any videos I have watched.
Where is that info stored? I don't believe it's in the DB; in metadata?
This is weird, all of the sudden I can watch anything using the web client and firefox. I get the error streaming failed (transcoder exited). When I try to use the client I only get audio. When I use microsoft edge, everything works fine.
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Edit: I did a fresh log dump before posting, but uploaded the wrong one. I can't delete the old one. The fresh log is the one ending 1108
On my Windows NextPVR client, the OSD for live TV doesn't show the elapsed time or time remaining for the current program. This information is known in the EPG, as seen by the vertical line.
Can the OSD timeline be updated to show elapsed time or time remaining? It's very useful to know how far into a program you are, and how much more there is to go.
Is there a socket issue along with the inability to connect with Schedule Direct?
On 8/22/25 6:00 PM, NextNPR did not record a program because the program descriptions in the guide were empty. The same program scheduled for 8/21/25 at the same time was recorded.
NextPVRServer.exe was run and showed an issue with an attempt to access a socket was forbidden and an attempt to connect with ScheduleDirect responded with [4] {"code":403,"response":"Username expected but not provided."}. A Word file (to preserve colored text, black text seemed to pipe to a file but the color only appeared in the command Window) is attached with output. The red colored text in the Word doc seemed associated with errors in the Event Viewer.
I try to look for the ver of NextNPR but forgot how to get the setting so opened http://localhost:8866 which showed some recorded programs but no version found. Closed it. Later, it would not reopen with the error that the local page could not be found. Update NextPVR to 7.0.2 (right click in NextNPR to getting setting and version) and local page returned.
Other attempts to resolve the socket failure (regedit added MaxUserPort value, identify the socket being used by NextPVR in task manager did not seem to indicate some other program was using it, Defender had NextPVR allowed through, netsh reset, last window update 8/13/25) were not successful in altering the issue.
