Well - I've got V5 installed and running, set Schedules Direct as my EPG provider, and have the channels imported for my first STB. I have to delete a LOT of channels - partly because I don't use a lot of them, and partly because there are SD and HD channels with the same number. Once I get this STB set up, I'll do the second.
Couple of questions, though, regarding changing channels that I can't find (or have missed...) in the Wiki...
First - can I jump directly to a channel by entering its number? Looking at the Wiki, it seems like that can only be done in the PIP window.
Second, and a follow-up to the first... - many of the channels on one STB will have numbers identical to the other STB. Reading the Wiki, I can group them according to box, but if I can jump from one channel to another by entering its number, is NPVR capable of discerning one from the other, or will it ask which device I want to use? Alternatively, in a situation like that, would I be forced to select from the EPG in order to get the correct device and channel?
Finally - can I add channels manually, even when using an EPG provider? I ask because my Lobby Watch camera comes in through my cable STB, and likely won't be listed on the Schedules Direct EPG.
Hello,
I've noticed that NPVR has set a waketimer for 01/01/1000:
Code:
PS C:\Windows\system32> powercfg /waketimers
Timer set by [PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Program Files\NextPVR\NextPVRServer.exe expires at 00:59:59 on 01/01/10000.
Timer set by [PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Program Files\NextPVR\NextPVRServer.exe expires at 22:27:30 on 05/05/2020.
Timer set by [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Windows\System32\svchost.exe (SystemEventsBroker) expires at 06:48:15 on 19/05/2020.
Reason: Windows will execute 'NT TASK\Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator\Backup Scan' scheduled task that requested waking the computer.
I know it probably does not matter, but is there a way to delete this waketimer? Or does it serve a purpose?
(the second NPVR waketimer is one that is there because I scheduled a recording)
Is it possible to change the skin for the KNEWC UI Client? I created a custom skin a few years ago for the NextPVR Windows desktop app that I'd like to now use with my new Kodi/KNEWC setup.
Just upgraded to latest v5.0.4.200428 using the installer. Upon completion the following error popped up. Error continues to pop up after restart. Machine is old laptop running win7. Everything was running fine prior to upgrade. Any help appreciated.
i can get perfectly fine recordings on any channel except TCM. recording anything on that channel shows it working for an hour (or whatever) but looking at the video shows almost nothing. i don't know where to look.
I have a Hauppauge DCR-3250 hardwired to a netgear router. My desk top is also connected to the router. I rescanned the channels in the tuner. I scanned the channels in NPVR.
I get the same result from scheduling in NPVR and Kodi, live tv in both.

Hi just installed Nextpvr 5 on my Ubuntu 18.04 system, it discovered my Telestar Digibit R1 sat-ip box and I started a scan but it has only fount 12 channels on the first transponder (28.2E) and none on the remaining transponders.
THe sat-ip box works perfectly with Tvheadend finding over 1000 channels, however I tried yesterday with Nextpvr 5 on my Windows 10 machine and also only found 12 channels on the first transponder and none on the rest.
Any idea where I am going wrong?
I am using the latest version on a unraid docker. I started a VOD movie it did not start and the docker stopped. When I tried to restart it just stops on it own. this is the log from the unraid log window.
Thanks
