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.

Hello,

Is there going to be a way to upload local .m3u file (from computer disk, that is) at some point in time?
Right now, only URL is accepted.

Trying to set up v5 server on Ubuntu with HDHomeRun Prime HDHR3-CC (probably oldish one with 3 tuners, CableCard). Source is cable, using CableCard. Setup is working fine with v4.

Whenever I try to watch a channel, I get only one frame of video, no sound, and it never progresses past that (well, not within 2 or 3 minutes that I'm willing to wait). Just sits there showing that one frame of video. Tried a few different channels, both SD and HD, same result.

Log file attached, attempt to tune is the last thing I did before taking the log, stopped it at 00:52.

Cox just swapped out all my cable boxes (apparently they are getting rid of all old motorola boxes and forcing everyone to "upgrade". In any case, the new box is a small thing (model CXD01ANI) and everything still works except for the IR Blaster to change channels. Blastcfg (I'm still using a WinTV-HVR-1600) can't find the code and trying to get it to "learn" the new remote has been an exercise in futility. Thus two questions:

1) Has anyone been successful in setting up this config with one of these new boxes and/or

2) Is there a way to set up the PVR to bypass the IRBlaster which always seems to be a pain in the ass.

Thanks.
