Hi,
I've been using NextPVR for years with a Hauppauge DCR-2650 connected to Cable. I noticed that over the last few years some channels would display black screen but would play audio. It started with METV HD and then WOR; WPIX; PBS. I had given up trying to fix it. When I record, everything plays back fine, it's only live stream that won't display. I did a scan of channels on the Hauppauge DCR-2650 web interface and saw that they now display "HD" or "AVC HD" and coincidentally, the channels that don't stream live for me are "AVC HD". I've attached a screenshot of the channel list. I'm just curious if this is something that can be rectified.
My goal is knewc on Kodi to make it look like the Windows client or the PCH to reduce the amount of explaining I need to do for the rest of the family. Accessing other things like Amazon Prime Video would be a plus.
Any recommendations?
Once the new SiliconDust Prime 6 comes out, I can replace my Ceton.
Have setup NPVR5 and am running with Kodi 18.4
When using the NPVR5 web interface or client all the channel icons are correct, but when using kodi all the icons are random.
Just wondering if this has been noticed by anyone else?
Other than that everything else seems to be working fine.
Hello everyone,
Is there a way to do a global channel edit and EPG mapping other then using
Settings-Channels-Details-popup window?
I have found that in ver 4.2.4 and 4.2.5 when I do the above it lags (takes forever to pull up) when you press details to pull up a channel to edit. Very 4.2.3 does not do this.
What is the best way to backup the entire configuration? I see an import/export of recorded streams but nothing to do with the source channels, epg, channel mapping, etc. Thanks.
On my test v5 server, I've got some failed recordings. And I'm really noticing when viewing them in the Recordings list (on RPi in kodi via knewc) that the red text (in the black box on the right over the blue background) is really blurry from the screen image compression:
In the knewc Client Settings | UI Client, I tried changing both the Screen resolution (to 1920x1080) and the Enable high quality screens (to on), but I am not seeing any noticeable difference. Should those options be working currently against a v5 server?
A couple of weeks ago I installed NextPVR on Ubuntu 18.04 and it worked normally for a couple of days, but at some point the tv tuner disappeared from the Devices list.
I can still use the same tv tuner with Kaffeine (on the same computer) and it works ok.
I removed NextPVR (with apt purge) and installed it again today, only to find out that NextPVR does not detect it, again (but the web UI works).

After downloading the latest ZIP, I am getting the following error

An assembly specified in the application dependencies manifest (NextPVRServer.deps.json) was not found:
package: 'Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.AspNetCore', version: '2.1.1'

This assembly was expected to be in the local runtime store as the application was published using the following target manifest files:

I've tried installing additional dependencies or the full .NET SDK as proposed here , but no luck so far.
