I moved from TV Mosaic to NextPVR and i am quite happy.
I tried SD for me, but it does not work for me, as i thought it might work.
So my question is, how can i delete it really completly from NextPVR?
I deleted the listing, and i tried to remove username and passwort, but i am not sure, if NPVR is not still trying to connect to the service.
Is there a way to delete is really complete from the config? If there something need to delete in the config.xml? If i look there, there are still some parameters set for SD.
Thank you very much, Peter
P.S: The only glitch i noticed right now with NPVR is, that the recordings in Kodi do not update (same machine connected via 127.0.0.1), if new recording are made. All other things seem to work really fine with NPVR 5.
I have been receiving an "Unhandled Exception Error Message" each time I change TV stations using Next PVR. Please note I am a novice with the Next PVR/HD Home Run setup that Hauppauge recommended I use instead of their Win TV program. My Next PVR is the latest Windows version, and I have tried reinstalling it to see if there was something corrupted, but that did not solve my problem. I have looked online and on the Next PVR forums, but can't seem to find a solution as to why this error keeps appearing. It has only occured when changing channels. And the program seems to run OK if I hit the "continue" key on this error message. But I would prefer to NOT keep seeing this error everytime I change TV channels.
I am on a desktop PC running Windows 10 64 bit Pro, using a Hauppauge DCR-2650 Cablecard TV Tuner and as I mentioned using the HD Home Run drivers with Next PVR.
I want to have the ability to share my NextPVR recordings with JRiver Media Center. So, I set up a PostProcessing hook (so PostProcessing.sh and a corresponding Awk script) to create a JRiver "sidecar" file from the NextPVR .xml file. I had my first test of this yesterday, and everything seemed to work fine. After my recording was completed, I had three files:
So far, so good. I also want to get rid of the sidecar file when I delete the recording, so I added "_ts_JRSidecar.xml" to the DeleteAdditionalExtensions entry in config.xml. So that is now:
However, when I deleted the recording last night (and to be clear, I deleted it from NextPVR - NOT using JRiver), the _ts_JRSidecar.xml file stayed behind. Here's what I see in the log file:
So it looks like it didn't make any attempt to delete the sidecar file. I can't tell if it completely ignored the DeleteAdditionalExtensions entry, or if it just didn't find a match between the rule and my sidecar file.
Is the problem that there's no "." in the filename immediately before "_ts_JRSidecar.xml"? Or could my extension be too long for NextPVR to handle?
Gave it some thought and avoided some / still had a couple of other hiccoughs when using new installer for first time.
First - Deleted the C:/Program Files/NPVR folder that I have been using v5 from up till now.
Second - ran sc delete "NextPVR service" from the command prompt (Spotted that - thanks Martin)
Third - Ran the new installer - got a bit of a surprise that its an online installer now.
On logging in to the server for the first time, nothing was working, then Bitdefender informed me it had stopped some malicious software - that's never happened with NPVR before!
Four - returned 4 files from quarantine (vue.min.js, nextpvr client.lnk, nexpvr tray.lnk and wscript.exe from system32) and made exceptions in Bitdefender.
All appears to be working fine now, although maybe I should run the installer again, just to make sure everything got updated.
I have also changed the service startup to un-delayed, as Kodi runs from the startup folder and both him and the wife get stroppy waiting three minutes for the service to start Also added restart service to the first 2 fail options in service properties.
I tried to watch live TV my selecting a program from the guide and I got an error message that said it could not find a capture device. Also, attempting to watch a recorded show fails with an underhanded exception error. Then I got it in a state where the error message kept popping up so I had to terminate the app.
I was able to watch TV and play the same recording without issues using the web browser and Kodi. It's just the desktop app that's not happy.
I've been using NextPVR on Arch and everything works great. However, I decided to try out Mint Cinnamon today. Clean fresh install followed by update and upgrade prior to the following commands.

After installing v5 with the new installer I attempted to run the desktop app from the tray and got a .Net Framework error window, then another error window after acknowledging the first one. I didn't have .Net Framework installed so I tried downloading and installing .Net but I still got the error message and the desktop app still failed to run.
