Wondering if I am missing any codecs etc. Hope you can help.
I recorded couple of live streams the other day. Each of the recording runs without issues for couple of minutes and then shows a garbled screen, then the recording rewinds and forwards in a quick succession or slows down with garbled audio.. then corrects itself and after a few minutes the same.
there is no problem with the live stream though, but happens every time I record.
is this something you have encountered and had corrected? thanks
Well, I've got NextPVR installed on my Media Computer. I see both cards on the Devices page. With a little bit of experimentation, I've figured out how to use the serial-port control on my DirecTV box, and USBUIRTSend has learned my IR codes and can control my cable box.
One issue...
Since I have two Hauppauge Colossus2 cards in my computer, I need to identify which is which. Hauppauge WinTV shows me the serial # of each card, so I've been able to figure out which card captures from which box. Unfortunately, NextPVR doesn't do this for me. All it shows in the 'Devices' page is two instances of "Hauppauge Colossus Sienna".
Now - I can likely figure out which is which, by setting up one card and changing the settings if I get it wrong... but I was hoping for a less awkward way of doing it.
Is it possible for you to display each card's serial number in the Devices list? If not - if Hauppauge uses some proprietary trick to read the serial number of each card - it's not a big deal... I was just hoping I could make things easier for myself.
Note - while WinTV can *see* both cards, it can only *USE* one of them... so I can't actually see that a video stream is being captured from my cable box. (I'm just assuming it is - since the stream is coming from the DirecTV box perfectly...)
Question - would the card with the lower serial number be displayed first? If so, that would make things easier to figure out.
Running Web App from the Windows Tray App, I noticed:
clicking on Channels then on a channel (or even on TVGuide, then on a show and then on Watch Now or also from the upper right corner of the page) the screen appears gray without transmission and a red warning that says "Browser blocked video playback" but now, clicking right on the page and then on Play, the transmission resurrects.
Likewise, it happens by going to see a recording from the Recording page: same msg, then same as said.
Is Webb App a maintained app? What is the cause?
Just upgraded to 5.4. Everything appeared to be successful except that the guide was empty. I updated the guide which appeared to get info from Schedules Direct but the guide is still empty.
I've installed NPVR v5 and while it worked for a while, now the pages are just black. I have the top menu and the left menu when I click settings, but most of the content is just empty. It also does not show me the available storage graph.
I can partly solve it by going to settings, logging out and reloading the page which gives me a login dialog: then the available storage graph appears as well as the list of channels. But none of the entries in Settings (selected from the left menu) show any content...
(browser is latest Firefox on Windows 10; server is running on that same computer)
i have searched and searched but can't seem to find an answer. had everything working perfectly with version 4.2xx even changing channels. once i upgrade to version 5.0 my blaster won't change channels. why is that?
Recording was working fine for me at first and I made no changes. For some unknown reason, all my recordings create a file that is size zero now, which can not open because...well...there's literally no data at size zero.
Live Tv works fine.... Well, when I first run live TV, the current channel never shows....just stays black but when I bring up the channels menu and change the channel, live TV starts showing perfectly, all channels. Why live TV does show the default channel before channel change is beyond me.
It seems like NextPvR has some major issues under the hood.
Of course, I just want to get my recordings back actually recording some data.
PS, I tried to upload the NRecord log but got a file not allowed message.
