Is there a way to share EPG from one channel to a different channel? I tried cloning the channel.epg node but it didn't work, are there any workarounds. Example below as Channel 4 HD is NOT on OTA EPG:-

Hi,

I have a HDHomeRun and run NextPVR on a WIndows 10 machine. All channels (that I watch, anyway) work normally with both applications except one. This one channel (Veronica through Ziggo in the Netherlands) is fine when viewed with the HDHomerun app but gives just a black screen in NextVPR while watching live and a 0 bytes file when recording. Anyone has an idea what's going on?

Thanks.

I posted this last night but can't find it today so I'm posting it again.

When I try to play a recording I get a message saying "You haven't configured an MPEG-2 video decoder" but I have.

When I go into settings the video decoder is set to LAV.

I have tried changing the decoder, updating LAV to the latest version and rebooting, but nothing seems to work.

The strange thing is that video was playing fine an hour earlier and I have made no changes.

What do I need to do to sort this out?

I am looking to run a custom .bat file when next pvr begins recording and when it ends recording. I stumbled upon the ability to add .bat files to the scripts folder under the data folder. I saw that the PararellProcessing.bat and PoatProcessing.bat scripts are run at both the beginning and end of recording. I simply copined and renamed my custom .bat files to the folder under the correct names but they do not run when recording begins. Is there something I am missing? Do the .bat files need a special layout? The ones I am trying to run are scripts to turn on and off an led via a program. The .bats work when perfectly when run on their own.

OK, This has happened several times on different clients. When I escape to go back to the EPG I just get a black screen and then unable to access the client computer. I just get a popup saying the program is not responding. do I want to wait for it to respond to close the program.
This happened around 6pm.

Thank you for your time.

A few days ago I decided to move from ServerWMC in Kodi to NextPVR for channel maintenance reasons. I did a full scan in NextPVR and got EPG, but it had lots of repeat channels and none with correct channel number etc. So I knocked up a powershell script to read data into NextPVR from here:- https://www.satellite-calculations.com/D...php?272/25
then later hoping for more accuracy from here:- https://www.satellite-calculations.com/D...rvices.htm

I then modified my script to merge from multiples of these files and the original nextpvr scan file, de-duping, pruning, renaming and renumbering (to freesat.co.uk names/nums). I have what looks like a perfect freesat list but I now get no EPG and some chans eg ITV2 don't work which locks NextPVR for 120 seconds (though ITV2 settings match those on KingOfSat and ITV's own site?) Any clues on the EPG or why ITV2 is not working greatly appreciated.

I attach my latest channels.xml that I import into NextPVR at Settings->Devices->Import Channels having first cleared the previous channels and I do "Restart Recording Service"then Settings->Channels->Update EPG after.

I have searched arround and it seems there are a few old posts for 2017 or so on this subject but...

Been trying look at ways to move the recording aspect of next of my main pc.

Looking at
Windows 10 iot on pi - has anyone done this?
Drivers for the usb dvb could be tricky..

I know a pi probably isn't fast enough to encode out to the network but I figure that could be done by something else or amaybe a tinkerboard would have enough power to get 1 hd stream back out as well as 2 TV cards in?

Anyone got any thoughts?

I have set up a couple of "keyword" recordings but am getting some random results. How can I view these keywords I have set up and edit or even delete? I can only seem to be able to find how to add more.

Thanks

NextPVR has been working well but suddenly today will not work. Below is the information from event viewer.

I have tried upgrading to the latest version but it seems to make no difference.

If I click on NextPVR status I get a blank screen and the process just seems to crash. The strange thing is that I have made no changes to my system at all today.

How do I recover from this? Is there a way to uninstall the program and reinstall without loosing all the information/settings etc?

I am running NextPVR 4.2.3 (181112) on a Windows 10 Server and Kodi 17.6 as a client on Rasberry 2. Lately issues have started with recording and live view that didn't happen before.

I am using IPTV as the source. This source works fine on my Android box using ProgTV but I want to have the Next PVR recording feature.

Live view often freezes, which I could live with if I had to, but more importantly my recordings always end prematurely, usually at about 26mins. I have tried different recording folders but it still happens.

Any help would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
