Using version 4.2.4 (190307) on a 6 month old Lenovo Windows 10 laptop which I recently got back from Lenovo service. I had to do a System Reset which restored Windows 10 without deleting my files but deleted all of my applications.

I reinstalled NextPVR version 4.2.4 (190307) but when I try to watch live TV I get just a blank screen and no audio. I am using a Hauppauge WinTV HVR 955Q with the latest drivers and LAV Audio and Video Encoders (NextPVR worked fine on this laptop before the reset). The HVR 955Q works fine with MediaPortal on Windows 10 and with MythTV on my Linux Mint partition.

When I go to 'Recordings' I see a list of what I tried to record, with the message "Access to the path 'C:\Users\...' is denied".

I checked and I have Administrator rights and Full Control in the Recordings and Pause Buffer folders




I've attached recent log files.

Hi I am new to Linux but managed to get Nextpvr up and running on Mint 19x. (Kodi 18.3)

All working great other than I don't seem to be be able to populate the EPG (over the air EPG)

The below error seems to just keep repeating and I end up with no listings:

[36] Unexpected error getting dynamic event list: System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'NShared.HDHomeRunRecorder' to type 'NShared.LocalRecorder'.
at NShared.DVBEPGSource.UpdateEPG(IEPGUpdateCallback callback)

any advise would be great :o)

Please see below the output from the terminal:

Hi,

My last full day of EPG data from Zap2xml is July 19 (typically I have 14 days). Been using Zap2xml for a long time and remember several times when the Zap2xml program needed to be updated due to changes at Zap2it. We may be facing the need for another program update. The last update at the author's site is DEC2018.

Has anyone else noticed this? I'd like to rule out it being a problem with my system.

Thanks.

v5 is awesome, great work! Tuning to channel in Kodi is now instant,in v4 I had to wait ~4seconds. Since I'm running Windows box atm.
I'm looking forward to see how it will work in virtual environment as tiny linux box so what should I use to minimize memory usage and move it away from Kodi box? CentOS/Debian/something else?

ps. any chance to include DAB radio in v5?

I have asked this before but can't find my post about it. Asked before if there's a way to use intel quick sync instead of cpu transcoding?

Thanks.

Is there a way to start the NPVR server as soon as you go into Windows after a reboot? The only way I can get the server to work is to pin the command window with NPVR Server and open it manually.

NextPVR was working perfectly on my old iPad 2 until this most recent update. Any way to go back to 1.7? The app opens then as soon as the channel list populate or maybe even right before, the app crashes every time. I have completely erased my iPad and installed only it, and it still does it. The previous version worked with no issues. NextPVR is awesome and love that you all have given me a use for my old iPad 2. The new 2.0 version says on the website that it requires iOS 10, but my iPad is running 9.3.5, which the App Store says. But maybe this isn't supposed to install on my iPad? I think the App Store should have not allowed me to update to 2.0. But it did and now it crashes. Please make it work again. Help!!

I\v downloaded the binaries form the supplied link, but how to install???

Hey guys,

First thanks for you help in advance. I was able to download and install V4 onto a windows 10 machine. I then configured it to run a m3u stream. I can see the "Live TV" and all the channels but when I click on one the player window opens but just says "requesting stream for channel and nothing plays.
I also wanted to see if I could access it from another computer and using the web interface I can but the same thing happens.


Thanks

Hi,

There are two channels when scanning Germany / cable not found that was synonymous with V4

1. RTL 122000/6900 64QAM SID53601
2. SAT1 122000/6900 64QAM SID53626

at V4 you could manually enter channels I miss at V5

also do not scan all Countries / all Fequencies, they're just starting 300000.

With kind regards
