I've had NextPVR installed for a while, with everything set up and working perfectly. Last week Windows 10 installed updates that caused repeated "blue screen of death" errors, sometimes while running NextPVR or others apps, sometimes a matter of seconds after starting the computer. Anyway, I uninstalled some updates, then reinstalled the next batch when they came out (and updated to 1909).
Windows is stable now, but NextPVR doesn't start. I click the icon, the spinning wheel next to the cursor spins for about five seconds, nothing happens. The icon in the system tray is there, but if I right-click on show settings or start NextPVR nothing happens either. NextPVR does show up in the task manager and is using CPU and RAM, but doesn't seem to be doing anything. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it to no avail. No log folder, so no log to post. Any thoughts?
I have installed ver. 5 everything is working fine except when I try to start the Desktop App I get the following error message: "Could not load file or assembly 'slimdx.dll' " I reinstalled ver. 5 - no change. I previously installed ver. 5 on 2 other machines without a problem.
I installed the official first non-beta of V5 on a server that's running V4. I expected that it would update everything and just work, like previous version updates, but I'm still seeing V4. V5 is installed. I see all the new files in C:\Program Files\NextPVR. But none of my settings seem to have come across to V5.
Are there some extra steps involved?
Thanks!
UPDATE: See this post (Number 19 in this thread) for details of how I have now successfully migrated from V4 to V5:
OK, I acknowledge that I am probably the only person running NPVR in a Docker container on a Windows 10 host, but for some reason in this config trying to get the logs from the button in the web admin generates a 500 error. Same Docker container running in Docker on my Mac works fine. So it isn't NPVR or even the Docker container. Sub, if you have a minute, could you give a description of how the logs are retrieved and zipped? If I understood that I could at least troubleshoot some more. At the end of this, I'm fine if I can't get the logs using the web admin, and I'm hoping this particular config will only be for another month or two until I get a new NAS I can use with Docker.
So basically, please don't run NPVR from a Docker container on Windows 10.
