I have two separate devices running NextPVR on my network. I would like to remotely access the tuners on one machine on the other machine through the NetworkRecorder Plugin. On the documentation for the plugin it says it supports remote instances I just can not seem to get it to work. I followed the steps to install the plugin and create a NetworkRecorder.xml file(attached) and it installs fine. What is the next step to configuring this? I have went to the tuner and hit add channel and typed in the name but don't know what to add for the source and tuning boxes. Anything I try to add does not get saved. Any help would be appreciated

The npvr addon is not correctly updating the firstaired date or the episode information on the kodi EPG. The nextpvr program itself has this information and displays it in its gui but that data is not making it into kodi. Im trying to update my own skin to make use of the info and the values are available in kodi but the data is empty from npvr.

With v5 recently I am not able to watch live TV with Kodi from a remote PC (connected to wired 1G LAN) for long before it buffers frequently and becomes un-watchable. Streaming recordings doesn't seem to be a problem. I monitored the CPU on the server and the load was well under 10% so I don't think what was the issue. Although the CPU is a gen 1 I3 Cor 2 Duo and somewhat dated. I included the NPVR and Kodi logs. Hopefully logs will show the progression to severe buffering before I stopped it.

I also tried VLC and it does not play Live TV well either.

I've recently found NextPVR.. great piece of software. Thanks very much

The only issue I'm having is that I cant get any BBC channels to show.
digitaluk.co.uk/coveragechecker shows Central, Waltham as my closest/most likely transmitter.
A full UK scan finds me lots of other channels but absolutely nothing to do with the BBC.
Scanning with various regions/transmitters selected gives the same, as does all countries/regions.

I've tried finding the frequencies and entering them manually but things just get worse.

If I connect the exact same aerial cable to my TV, BBC channels are picked up good and strong.

What might I be doing wrong?
Could anyone please let me know what it'd be best to use for this area?

Thanks in advance

I changed my password on Schedules Direct, and now my Guide on NextPVR isn't populating.

When I run it manually in command line, this is what I get.

:\mc2xml>mc2xml.exe
Loading ..... : mc2xml © <mc2xml@gmail.com> (v1.4)
Reminder .... : Unauthorized redistribution prohibited.
Reminder .... : If this software is useful, please donate!
Reading ..... : mc2xml.dat
Downloading . : schedulesdirect.org
Error ....... : Invalid username or password <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Seems straight forward right? Here is my issue.

When I look at the .bat that invokes the .exe this is the information contained.

mc2xml.exe -t 468a3aa03b5d<OMMITTED>330c10de9a98c6B659 -o "tvguide.xml" -d 168 -s -6

-t is the User/Pass, and I don't recall where I got this long number from?

I know my new password for schedules direct, but how did I get this long string for my password last year? I just don't remember what I did to set it up.

Thanks,

David

Installed with the Hauppauge 1255 card on Ubuntu 18.04. When I scan for channels, my area isn't listed. I'm in the Washing DC area but it's not listed, closest is Philadelphia and I'm not getting all the channels in my area.

What system requirements would you recommend for streaming live TV through my Hauppauge Colossus 2 card?

current specs

i5 3570 @ 3.2
8gig ram
ssd
colossus 2

Thanks.

I ran across this in config.xml under <HDPVR> looking for something else. What does this do? I ask because I have an HDMI splitter that takes up to 5 seconds to "wake up". I'm wondering if this will delay recording start so it will be awake when it starts?

Hey Sub when are going add 4 segment as well as removing the older segment as it goes along in to Linux like Windows dose ?.

I've had good luck with using the URL web interface to schedule single events. I wish to expand my capability by scheduling a recurring event.

The GitHub code shows:

case TIMER_REPEATING_EPG:
XBMC->Log(LOG_DEBUG, "TIMER_REPEATING_EPG");
// build recurring recording request
snprintf(request, sizeof(request), "/service?method=recording.recurring.save&recurring_id=%d&event_id=%d&keep=%d&pre_padding=%d&post_padding=%d&day_mask=%s&directory_id=%s&only_new=%s",
timerinfo.iClientIndex,
timerinfo.iEpgUid,
(int)timerinfo.iMaxRecordings,
(int)timerinfo.iMarginStart,
(int)timerinfo.iMarginEnd,
days.c_str(),
m_recordingDirectories[timerinfo.iRecordingGroup].c_str(),
preventDuplicates
);
break;

This is straight forward but I don't know where to get "timerinfo.iClientIndex." I see it used as the &recurring_id parameter but where does the number come from? It seems to have been already established somewhere, but where? Can I get to it?

Thanks in advance.
