I installed Hd HomeRun connect Duo and configured it for NextPVR. All ATSC and Premium Demo channels are showing and EPG has been configured. I can see all on the TV guide. When I click on one of the Premium Demo channels to watch, the "please wait" box appears on the screen and then I get a blank screen - no audio or video (see SYFY toward end of log). I have no problem playing the Premium Demo channels on the Hd Homerun app.
I have not subscribed to Premium. I assumed Premium Demo would work. Wanted to make sure Premium worked on NextPVR prior to subscribing.

I'm trying to use either vidimport or videoConduit to write MetaData to
the npvr.db3 file, in an effort to correct some apparent problems I've had.
Apparently, neither one appears to work. I am aware that VideoConduit
is the prefered tool to use, but I cannot get VC to work at all.

Apparently the import runs normally and everything seems fine here,
except that vidimport doesn't update my database.
So I Try Video Conduit, and it fails too.

Try renaming your directory so it will match something on thetvdb.com.

I have changed the config file to specify NPVR directory.
I am at a loss. Can anyone shed a little light on me?
long time no hear -- need to send you a beer or two for Christmas!
I'm doing a lot of recording on NPVR, but (mea culpa) mainly using it as a recording back end for Kodi for OTA movies and series in Germany. The filters I am using tend to capture a lot of repeats, and it gets worse once the data has been "cleaned".
Cleaning means that the raw TS files are cut with VideoReDo to remove pre/post padding and commercials, transcoded to H.264 MP4 and sometimes MKV files, then moved over to a bunch of NAS folders for Kodi and distribution to the devices at home.
My problem is that the automated web recording sweep continually picks up movies and content I already have loaded -- how can I setup the system such that local and NAS content is scanned for pre-existing files and not auto-recorded?
For example I have data stored on file shares similar to these:
"J:\Movies1\3 Engel für Charlie - Volle Power\3 Engel für Charlie - Volle Power.mp4"
or
"\\wdmycloud\Movies\Appleseed\Appleseed.mp4"
or
"N:\Movies3\2 Millionen Dollar Trinkgeld (1994)\2 Millionen Dollar Trinkgeld (1994).mkv"
I know NPVR has existing recording crash advoidance logic, but not sure how to apply in the Kodi use case here.
Hi. Just moved to NextPVR recently after years of using WMC. Moved from Windows 7 to Windows 10, finding Next PVR great replacement. However when I play a recording as it's being made, it only plays for 10 min and then stops, if I play again from where it stopped it plays for another 10 mins and then stops and so on. Is it not possible to watch a full recording whilst it records or am I missing something in settings somewhere ? It does similar whether I'm playing on pc, or iOS apps on phone or apple tv . . .Thanks
I am looking to integrate Bell ExpressVu (satellite) and Nextpvr into my Plex server using a combination of the Xteve plugin (emulates HD Homerun tuner for Plex) and schedulesdirect for epg data.
Questions:
1) Nextpvr can control IR stbs I see thru exe parameters. Can this work also when tuning channels via m3u playlists from nextpvr?
2) What capture device should I be using? If Hauppauge HD PVR I will need a splitter to deal with HDCP I presume. Is there something else?
3) what is the reliability of nextpvr using capture cards and stb control? And delivering the stream via m3u? I don't want to invest time and money to bang my head against the wall.
Would it be sensible to have a "Sticky" at the beginning of the NextPVR Support forum that points to the most recent patches for the current release?
As time goes by and you release various patches, it gets a bit tedious searching the forums for the updates. (easy to install an old patch or miss one completely)
You could lead with an instruction of how to apply the patches too.
Hey sub, looks like there's a potential Bobby Tables going on. :p
easy repro, search the epg for "can't" and the logs reveal it. This would be a nasty attack vector potentially via Kodi. At the very least, search won't work properly.

Is it possible to add a key mapping (in KeyMappings.xml) to bring up the EPG Search screen? I use it quite a bit and would love to be able to add a key mapping so I could use my remote to bring it up quickly.
Hello,
Can someone assist me in telling me why my pc is at 100 percent capacity while watching an IPTV program?
I have included the logs.
Thank you,
