I've successfully installed the NextPVR Server on my Mac. i'm trying to use it with my Legacy Tablo device. I downloaded the TabloTV plugin into the NextPVR folder. I tried to install it with 'dotnet ./TabloTV.dll' without success. Is there a proper way to install it?
Any idea why this recording didn't start at 17:30. I have a quad hauppage tuner and have had this recording start late a few times recently. The prepadding is set to None.

I have a SiliconDust Connect Duo. If I understand correctly, I should be able to now configure NextPVR to get a couple days of EPG from Silicon Dust. I currently subscribe to Schedules Direct, but a couple of the local stations that carry a large number of independent networks have significant EPG errors from SD. Using off-air (ATSC) EPG is better for accuracy but limited to only a few hours at a time. So I'd like to try the free Silicon Dust EPG to see if it is an improvement over SD.
But... it isn't clear to me how to make this work. Do I need to have some sort of user account on Silicon Dust even if I don't have a paid subscription? What is the current syntax for configuring NextPVR (v7.1)?
Testing out the new X11 build of yauiclent3 this is what I found. Interface looks great, video plays and looks great, but no audio. Noticed the player does not appear in the audio settings manager under apps playing.
Apparently it is not connecting to the sound server. When you toggle the V and B keys I see the volume going up and down but no sound. All other apps on my system are working fine with no issues. The NextPVR web page works fine with sound on Firefox.
Only thing that changed is a clean install of NextPVR ver 7.1.1.260616. I had v7.0.5.260307 with the beta installed on top of it that you gave me the link in the previous thread. That is all uninstalled and deleted including the beta version of yauiclent 3. I no longer have the deb file for the beta version, somehow it got deleted by accident. But the beta version DID work with sound and all.
Linux Mint 22.3 X11
If you need I can send you the NPVR logs and the yauiclient .json file as well as the logs.

I have tried installing the new Linux Version 7.1.0.260607 of NextPVR twice with no results. By "no results", I mean that the version of NextPVR shown when going to "Settings" remains the same as it has been 7.0.5.260307. The only difference is: "(7.1.1.260616 is available for download)" is now shown in a green font after my latest version number.
The Terminal Log of one of my installation sessions is shown below with my "# comments" added. I created a separate directory named "Downloads-2" to be sure I am only using the most recent downloaded files.
dick@deb:~$ cd Downloads-2 # Change to this directory for doing all the commands for installation.
dick@deb:~/Downloads-2$ ls # Nothing is shown because the directory is empty.
dick@deb:~/Downloads-2$ curl https://nextpvr.com/nextpvr-helper.deb -O # Download command is executed.

I got an email today that the older generations of TabloTV won't be supported after Sept and that motivated me to to look into what could be done with a Gen 4 box. Turns out that with the help of Claude I was able to update my extra to support it.
Basically the extra install uses server authorization to scan and load the channel list from their server. After that tuning is all local as long as you don't change authentication.
Annoying for me all configuration is via mobile, but that is really just for scanning (of course you can watch mobile with their app). It defaults to H264 with AC-3 but AAC is possible in setting for playing in NextPVR web.
They seem to go on sale a lot so I wouldn't pay full price. Without rambling on further if anyone want to beta test this let me know.

I can see that my VPN is changing server IP addresses (I am looking into this).
I have the NextPVR set to request updated schedules once a day.
Does NextPVR regularly "ping" schedules direct even if it is not requesting an update?
Just wondering why SD saw too many IP address changes.
