Hi there I recently switched over from win7 WMC to NextPVR v4 on a clean Win10 x64 install. I have most things running pretty smoothly except for starting NPVR with the MCE remote. I have the config set to launch NPVR with the MCE remote and to run in full screen. The problem is when I do this it's behind any other windows and the taskbar. Even if I have no other windows open, it's still behind the taskbar and unresponsive. Unless I use my mouse to click on NPVR nothing works. I have checked "always on top" a number of times but it's always unchecked when I restart the app.
This only seems to happen if I launch NPVR with the remote, if I use my mouse to click on the shortcut, it works fine.
Is there a setting in the config.xml file that I missed or something else I can try?
OK, so Verizon FIOS Philadelphia swapped channels 829 (ACCNetwork) and 571(ESPN Goal Line). If I go to my schedules direct account and look at a report, they are correct. However, in the NPVR guide, they are still the old configuration (including the programs). Anyone know if this is a schedules direct issue or NPVR issue? Can I fix it?
I seem to be the only one taking up your time with mac issues. I hope that means there aren't a bunch of mac users and that I am not just a problem child here
new issue...
npvr Version: 5.0.1.200103 using up-to-date chrome as web browser on two different machines (so I don't *think* it's the client side) ffmpeg 4.2.2
seems to be recording fine can play back the recordings fine in web client can't watch the channels live in the same web client interface[attachment=475][attachment=475][attachment=475][attachment=475]
Anyway.. some logs attached that should show a recording session of less than 10min and a failed effort to watch live.
oh, one more data point... I have the SiliconDust HDHomeRun app on this mac also and it pops up just fine and pretty quickly when I go to watch the exact same channel live. hope that helps.
We are now using v5 full time on Windows 8.1 - deleted v4 for the New Year and have been noticing a few oddities.
After deleting programs there are ts.map files left behind - causing the folders to remain - there were also about 60 of them in the live TV folder. Should this be added to the delete list in config.xml, or should they not be there in the first place?
Using UK Freeview for OTA program guide, it now appears to be picking up the Season / Episode numbers on some of the series.
In Kodi it is placing them in the correct named folder, but the actual program name is being changed to for example: S01E02-S01E02, with none of the original program name - which can be a bit confusing.
Also occasionally the NPVR service is getting stuck - upsetting Kodi and the tray icon turning grey. Windows still says the service is running, but it requires a service stop followed by a start to get things moving again. Shortcuts for that (as per v4) would be useful.
This one has me scratching my head. On my NextPVR server, in Videos, the EPG show description in the right panel matches the recording selected on the left.
If I go to the same show folder in Videos on my ODroid N2 via knewc, the EPG show description in the right panel is for the recording above the selected recording on the left.
Is there a way for me to set Recording Defaults for either the "Record Series" or "Advanced" buttons in the Web interface?
In the advanced GUI, we have "default" as an option for PrePadding, PostPadding and Directory and I can set the values for those defaults in the Interface Settings panel.
I'd like to be able to do the same for "Recording Type" and "Keep" as well.
Best trivial example I can give is for Season Recordings... 99% of the time when I click "Record Series", I'm looking to just record New episodes. I can set that up by clicking "Advanced" instead, but Advanced is defaulted to "All Episodes" (which I expect includes re-runs). Simple to change it, but now I'm up to 3 clicks compared to one click if I could set the default to be "New Episodes" for the "Record Series" button.
Again, this is trivial stuff... no complaints here. Just checking if there is a config file I can hand-edit or such to set up to work to my preferences for all the recording attributes for those button options.
I have loaded NextPVR to my computer and it launches and I get a picture but when I right click on the screen to get to setup or channels the screen goes Black and displays "TV Viewer mode-right click for controls and is locked on that screen.
I have already already tried deleting and re installing but same thing.
Just about to try V5 alongside my current V4 setup but falling at the first hurdle.
From the install instructions it says to set the <Port> setting in config.xml, to something other than 8866 so as not to clash
only I don't appear to have a config.xml anywhere to change it.
Under the data folder there is a 'Config-master-dont-edit.xml' and in there there is a <Port> setting but changing it there makes no difference, neither does making a copy of that file, renaming it to config.xml and leaving it in either the data or root folder, the server only opens on port 8866.
Just wondering if there are any thoughts on something I'm doing wrong with a new tuner I bought.
Its a TBS6902 twin tuner. So I installed it and added the driver, which seems OK, I went into NextPVR and adjusted the LNB settings and it found and added 33 channels on Tuner 0. I then went to do Tuner 1 but it offered to transfer settings across so I did. I updated the guide. I tried to watch using tuner 0 and it doesn't show anything, in Chrome think it said something about transcoder failure. If I try to watch the same channel using tuner 1 it works fine. In the server window it says something about 'Root element is missing' if thats connected at all.
I only have one aerial cable for now so have to swap connections at the back of the computer for the two tuners.
Not sure if the latest logs are any use, have been rebooting PC at various stages...
