G'day I was looking around for some robust channel/network logos to replace the "dead" and "boring" looking logos that I was getting from SD but no joy. So I decided to PSD some myself after I did find a few that I could use as a template. Long story short, I went from this

to this

It is taking some time for sure but its a nice project. I believe I will most likely focus on the US channels first and then branch out from there to add additional channel logos. When I get this done I will be happy to share them with anyone. Personally I just like the look and feel of the TV Guide now. Cheers!

I've had this issue for about the last 3-4 program updates and it's quite annoying. I use NextPVR to play television programs recorded onto my computer (.ts files) via an "AVerMedia H826 Hybrid TV BDA" tuner. Since I'm recording from an aerial antenna, the reception is not always the greatest and I get digital artifacts in the video. Before 3-4 updates ago, this wouldn't be an issue and the program would just play it with the digital hiccups and everything would be fine. Now anytime there's even a hint of a digital artifact, the program crashes with a "NextPVR has stopped working..." popup.

I remember reading in the change log a while back that there was a fix for what I thought was this exact issue, but yet I keep having problems. Is there a workaround to this problem? Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Hi Guys,

I've pretty much moved away from my Windows PC Kodi setup to a NVidia Shield and my Interlacing issues are no longer an issue, but I now have an issue where when I select a Channel to watch from the EPG,
usually it hangs on a static screen and I have to Channel Up/Channel Down or stop and select the channel again to get the channel to work. Its not a hard freeze, but obviously gets caught in a loop.

I've pasted the PasteBin in the Kodi thread below (Issue 1 of 2) in case its Kodi related rather than NextPVR.

The issue does not occur on my Windows PC Kodi setup.

Cheers!!

i just got my new colossus 2 card, have the epg all setup. but nexpvr won't change the channels. i select HD-PVR IR Blaster but nothing happens it's like when i click ok it doesn't save the selection. is there anything i can do to get this working?

thanks.

I have a library of films some of which have subtitles muxed into the file.
Great, but NPVR always plays the subtitles by default, when I click the Right click menu and select subtitles the subtitle streams are listed at the top of the drop down and 'No subtitles' is at the bottom.
This means that with an English spoken film I'm always having to turn them off manually.
Is there anyway to change the default so that 'No Subtitles' are shown unless selected?

Many thanks
Bob

G'day...I have noticed that TV listings add-on is not showing the channel logos whereas the default guide is. Also, on the TV Listings is there a way to change the background color in the area where the channels are listed? I have tried most of the skins and they all appear to over bear the channel logos because some of the logos are dark in nature. As a side note, on my other computer the default guide and TV Listings are showing channel logos. However, the channel logos are still too dark for the background. Any suggestions? TIA Cheers!

G'day...Well after a few days of failed attempts trying to get NPVR (client) to communicate with the NPVR (server), I finally threw in the towel and opted for something more in my wheelhouse. I thought I had it worked out once and prematurely celebrated only to discover the next day that the connection was lost again. All this was done using a workgroup environment with 2 W10-x64 boxes. So, I decided to go the domain route because that environment would possibly give me more control over what I was trying to accomplish, that being establishing a communication between the 2 boxes.

So, let me first describe the new environment:

Client – W10 Pro 1803 64bit OS, NPVR 4.2.2.180623
Server – W Server 2016 64bit OS, NPVR 4.2.2.180623

The 1803 was a massive headache as it kept throwing me into lala land so many times as I tried to get the right setup but no joy. I tried all of the fixes I could find but none worked for me. So here is what worked for me in the new environment as the table below indicates. Hope this helps somebody else out even if it’s not Domain based. After setup I ran DCDiag test and everything passed.

Here is my old thread so u can read in on what was attempted if you want https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...PVR-server

Hi,

Just started using NPVR with a Capture card and have noticed that the {channel} blasts the <Number> field and not the <channel> field. Is this how it is meant to work - or a bug?
I have altered the <Number> so they list in a particular order through Plex. The following channel blasts correctly, but passes through channel 100, and not 504.

<Channel>
<Name>FOX FOOTY</Name>
<Number>100</Number>
<ServiceType>4121</ServiceType>
<tuning>
<type>HDPVR</type>
<locator>
<channel>504</channel>
<input>3</input>
<audio_input>HDMI Audio Input</audio_input>
<blaster_executable>E:\OneDrive\HTPC\WinLIRC\ChannelChanger.bat</blaster_executable>
<blaster_args>{channel}</blaster_args>
</locator>
</tuning>
<EPGSource>XMLTV</EPGSource>
<epg>
<source>XMLTV</source>
<file>T:\xmltv\tvguide.xml</file>
<mapping_id>Fox Footy</mapping_id>
<mapping_name>Fox Footy</mapping_name>
</epg>
</Channel>

I am on 4.2.2

If I move an IPTV channel either by changing the base number of the sub number the following problem occurs.
The guide data is present and correct until I move the channel.


NPVR -> Settings -> channels -> select channel

On a channel before it is moved the EPG SOURCE is as follows:

Source: xmltv
xmltv file: http://"ip address";"ip port"/xmltv.php?username="username"&amp;password="password"&amp;type=m3u_pluss&amp;output=ts
mappin: "channel name"

Once a channel has been moved the EPG SOURCE is as follows

Source: xmltv
xmltv file: http://"ip address";"ip port"/xmltv.php?username="username"&amp;&amp;password="password"&amp;&amp;type=m3u_pluss&amp;&amp;output=ts
mappin: BLANK with no drop down options

You should have noticed that after the channel is renumbered the "&amp;" seperators have been doubled.

I tried to edit the xmltv file line to remove the extra text but the program wont allow it and returns the line to the original incorrect line.
I tried to use the browse function to point it to a data set that had the correct line in it, but I could not get that to work either.

Your assistance in correcting this programming problem would be greatly appreciated. A temporary work around or patch would provide happiness.

I am on 4.2.2

I get my guide info correctly on the iptv channels UNLESS I move one of them. In that case I lose the correct,
xmltv file address and therefore lose the guide data.

Unmoved channel for epg source
source: xmltv
xmltv file: http://ip address:ip port/xmltv.php?username="username"&amp;password="password"&amp;type=m3u_plus&amp;output=ts
mapping: "channel name"

However on a moved channel for epg source I have
source: xmltv
xmltv file: http://ip address:ip port/xmltv.php?username="username"&amp;&amp;password="password"&amp;&amp;type=m3u_plus&amp;&amp;output=ts
mapping: BLANK with no drop down options to choose

If you notice because the channel was moved (either by changing the base number or the sub number) you generate double (2) &amp; between each control pharse.
I tried to edit the "xmltv file" name line back to what I know is the correct statement for that line but the program will not take it and just changes it back to the incorrect
statement of the ip location it started with. I tried to use the browse function to have it look in a data set to find the correct statement but I could not get that to
work either.

Please help fixing this annoying problem
