I've got a IPTV device that has 132 categories and >35,000 channels (fair to say I don't need them all in NextPVR) But when I go to deselect them the checkbox jumps back up to the top so I can't scroll down. From playing with the CSS I can make it _functional_ by adding a `max_height` property to the popup box so I guess it's some js that triggers if you try to leave the main screen?
Any troubleshooting steps I can try to help, let me know ?
I've noticed my PC has Windows Elitedesk USFF has been a little sluggish watching things lately and the web interface has been sluggish too. I've just decided to take a look at this now and the culplit seems to be NextPVRserver sucking 70% of the CPU resources.
I'm running 7.0.1.241229 and can't seem to see anything in the logs that would indicate anything and the CPU is being smashed when the system is idle - I'm not watching or recording TV at the time. Rebooting or stopping and restarting the service seems to fix this temporarily but the issue just comes back eventually after some use.
Anybody have any ideas or is there any logging I can enable which might show things?
Ive been using next PVR coupled with Kodi for a short while now since some other PVR servers bit the dust. I'd like to subscribe and add an IPTV service. Sorry if this is a naive question but don't IPTV service require you to have one of their stbs such as a firestick? Is it possible to access the IPTV service via a URL and have next stream channels via Kodi? Or have I got wrong end of stick. A dummy's guide is needed!!
Encountered something strange today - perhaps what I learned will be helpful to others.
I set up a new IPTV device testing a new provider. I use IPTVboss for editing etc so my M3U and EPG URLs are Dropbox share links.
My device imported ok, no errors, but no new EPG info was loading. EPG update had a suspiciously small number of updates.
Looked inside the EPG xml file itself and found lots of future entries, they just weren't showing in the TV Guide.
Tried restarting service, deleting DB3, no difference.
On a hunch I shortened the name of my IPTVboss output files by a few characters (taking the filename itself down from 14 chars to 10, and the full URL from 112 to 108) and the next update worked.
Is this a known char limit issue, on either the full URL or the filename? I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere.
What does having the setting AllowRemoteStreaming set to true actually do, and does it need to be set to true to connect remotely with the NextPVR Android Client from the Play Store?
I have concluded (Martin has helped me to conclude) I have a few channel streams of less than optimal quality. They *seem* fine but produce TS files when recorded that have skipping / seeking problems (I suspect caused by time index or stream interruption issues). After having really optimized groups and EPGs etc. I don't wish to change providers unless I have to, and hope I can instead do the following:
I see people using postprocessing scripts for various things here but not for tsduck; I see people using tsduck for stream and file analysis but not seemingly postprocessing.
I was wondering about having tsduck run after a recording completes to analyze and correct errors it finds (e.g. tsfclean, tsfixcc, tsftrunc, tsresync)
and re-write the file. I wish to avoid actual "re-encoding" of a file in a way that lowers quality.
Is this something anyone here is doing, or is even possible?
After an update of (Win10) and/or NPVR, my automatic transcoding at first did not work anymore.
When I changed settings to "CPU" encoding, it works again, but it creates 'temp-files like:
The Big Bang Theory_20250226_19402010.temp.mp4
in stead of the normal file name.
So, I suppose the transcoding did not fully finish?
Any idea what I can do?
Thank you!

Sub, a user sent me a PM (two actually) and although I responded with my typical reply that I don't support via PM I was annoyingly told that the users had disable PMs. Does the forum allow you to make a rule so users can't sent PM's unless they allow PMs?
I imported the M3U links as a playlist, and when starting one of these channels, I get video but no audio. There is no audio stream available to select, as shown in the attached screenshot.
When running these links with VLC or ffplay, the sound works fine. I have already tried using AC3Filter and LAV Decoder as audio decoders, but I didn’t see any improvement.
Attached are the logs.
Can anyone suggest how to resolve the audio issue?
