I get this message "There was a problem sending the command to the program" when opening a browser to "http://localhost:8866/index.html" to view the TV guide.  I can view the guide, but is it not sending the programs to record to the recorder or something else?
What is the solution please?

Hi,

I'm wondering how do I change the date format in the Recordings section so that it always gives dates as DD/MM/YYYY as opposed to "Today", "Yesterday".  I think this changed since I upgraded from 3.4.8 to 4.2.5.  

I'm really sorry, I'm sure I've read this question asked before but I just can't find it.

Thank you

Last year I installed NextPVR 4.2.5 in my Win10 system, which has a Hauppauge QuadHD ATSC tuner. I also have a subscription to Schedules Direct, so that's my data source for overnight scheduled EPG updates. I also have installed the TV Listings plugin, and have custom colorized the guide cells by genre.

All in all I have zero complaints, and have been totally satisfied.  I realize 4.2.5 is now "legacy", but it works fine for me just as it is.  I realize any new development will be for version 5.

So my questions are:

(1) Is there anything significantly improved or additional functionally in NextPVR version 5 that should definitely motivate me to upgrade? At the moment I have no wish list of features missing from 4.2.5, but if 5.0.4 had something totally new that was really terrific I could be persuaded.

(2) If I run the installer for version 5.0.4 is this like installing a totally separate independent new app, so that my existing install of 4.2.5 is completely unaffected?  In other words will BOTH programs exist side by side so that I can run either one independently?

Or is the install of 5.0.4 an "upgrade-in-place" so that my previous install of 4.2.5 is no longer conceptually present, but rather I'm now running 5.0.4?

I realize there is a conflict of the Hauppauge tuner, and I am not planning on running both program versions simultaneously. I'm only asking if the install of version 5.0.4 will use all of my existing setup and customization of version 4.2.5 so that I don't have to start from scratch?  And I'm asking if I will end up with both 4.2.5 and 5.0.4 as two independent programs either of which I can run?  Or will I instantly only end up with only 5.0.4 replacing the contents of any 4.2.5 program and data folders and 4.2.5 will now be "gone"?

It would be nice if the install of 5.0.4 would detect the existing presence of 4.2.5 and use its configuration even if 5.0.4 is installed as a totally independent second program, so that I wouldn't have to start from scratch again customizing 5.0.4. It would be ideal if installing 5.0.4 would simply upgrade-in-place my 4.2.5 setup, so that I have do to nothing except begin using 5.0.4 and not miss a beat. Sure, I would probably take time to learn about any new features and explore, but at least I would have to do nothing in order to make the upgrade other than to run the 5.0.4 installer exe.

(3) Is the TV Listings plugin still supported with 5.0.4?

Thanks for any additional editorial comments or insights you can offer.

Any Ideas?

Hey Guys,

My Guide is showing dates in US format - mm/dd/yyyy any chance of having it display according to the PC settings, eg dd/mm/yyyy?

When using the KNEWC UI Client, most (though not all) of the time the video plays behind/under/in the background of the UI Client so I need to exit the UI Client to see the video.  Is anyone else having this issue?  Any suggestions to fix it?

Update with version details:
- Kodi Leia
- LibreELEC
- NextPVR Server 5.0.4.200428
- Raspberry Pi 2b
- knewc 2.8.0

Since upgrading to 5.0.4 I can no longer receive synchronised audio/video from my HDHomeRun Duo.
Before the update the image was rock solid, so much so I'd forget I was watching on PC and think I was watching on 4K TV.
I'm currently using LAV Codecs which use 80% of Video Hardware Resources on Live Playback but even so I loose synchronisation. The Microsoft Codecs are no longer usable as image freezes and then double times to catchup.
I've attached attached Logs and details of my PC. Hope they can be of some help.

Is there any way to edit an IPTV channel address?
It displays: http://address/username/password/channel-number
I'd like to edit the channel-number only.

The "Edit Channel Details" doesn't seem to display the http:// string.

Thanks

DCR-3250. all three devices appear. when I scan any one, I get a list of all 588 channels in device. there is no button for a seemly exit, so I hit the upper right hand corner 'X' and return to the devices page. shows no channels. Am I doing something wrong?

After our previous posts (1 second recordings) i decided to completely uninstall Windows Media Center and NPVR and start over. I removed WMC because it did not see my tuners. I went to the NPVR download page to get a new installer, although after downloading it, I saw it was the same as the first one. After installing, I went to the devices page, with the results as above.
