Hello,

I think it would be a good addition if there were a free EPG source already set as default, such as epgshare01. Personally, I use this one:

Hi there,

Is it possible to add custom labels to manage and identify multiple IPTV accounts?

The IPTV links are too long to see which account is in which position.

I'm not a complete idiot but I found the destructions a bit......NOT overly helpfull.  I dont have a desktop app....should there be one?

Getting nothng, get the epg click watch...nothing

I have just rebuilt my PC with new hardware and a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro 24H2.
I want to use the old Desktop NPVR Gadget, it's really useful to quickly see what is recording and about to record.
I can't seem to get it to work it will not connect to the NPVR server.
When I click on the NPVR logo it tries to open a webpage   https://http//localhost:8867/index.html:8867/index.html   not   http://localhost:8867/index.html
So what am I doing wrong I have all the same settings as my old gadget and have coped the NPVR data files and the NextPVR program files from my old machine onto the new one after the program install.
Do I need to install Java? or am I really missing something, last time I messed with this was in 2021
Many thanks Bob

Hi all,

It's been a long while since I was here and I feel like a newbie again - things have changed quite a bit.

I'd like to build a compact Linux box to sit under my TV. I'm looking at a Hauppauge WinTV-quadHD board with a terrestrial TV aerial for UK Freeview (DVB-T2). I've found a nice compact case which takes microATX mobos.

So questions are...

What sort of processor and RAM do I need for good performance?
What flavour of Linux? I've been running Debian on my main desktop for 15 years, any good? Or should I use Ubuntu or something else?
The case I've seen has space for a 2.5" SSD plus a 3.5" HDD - recommendations for an ultra quiet HDD?

Any advice much appreciated.

Cheers.

I have searched the forum for an answer to this question.
After running NPVR v5 very successfully on a 6 year old PC I now have a problem
I rebuilt my PC with some new hardware CPU, motherboard, RAM, NvMe SSD and a clean install of Widows 11 Pro 24H2
To save absolutely all the trouble of tuning and setting up all the channels etc. I copied the NPVR Data folder and NextPVR programs folder into my new setup.
Great everything worked just fine and although I can record programs on Sat and Terrestrial tuners I cant watch any live TV I get a red message 'Streaming Failed (exiting transcoder).
Does anyone know how I can fix this please?

On a quick side issue I have a failed tuner card which I have removed from the PC but it still shows in the devices fist even if I 'rescan for devices', how can I remove them?

Hi 
I'm moving a replacement Windows system into production 7.0.1 (241229) that will replace a long running system 4.2.4 (190307).
1. 
I would like to move from the old system whatever db carries the record of watched shows (it appears to prevent repeats)
I will be using the exe client and recording Over the Air material.

2.
At the time of the conversion I will be swapping in my current production 4 tuner card to replace the 1 tuner card for testing. During testing I setup my stations and Schedules direct for the single tuner. It there a way to copy this to all tuners on the muti-tuner card without editing each station. This data would be new system to new system after card installation.
I could rescan each sub tuner, it is the process of re-editing EPG selection for each station I'm trying to avoid.

Thanks

Hi,

I am using the latest version of NextPVR Version: 7.0.1.241229 on Windows 11.
I live in the Eastern Time zone in the USA.
My timezone is EDT(UTC-4) (by using time.gov).

I like to record Late Night comedy shows: Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, and Taylor Tomlinson(After Midnight).

I like to watch the recordings during the next day (during daylight).

I have two(2) TV tuners.

Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert start approximately near 11:30 p.m. and end approximately at 30 minutes after midnight.  I record these in parallel.

Seth Meyers, and Taylor Tomlinson(After Midnight) start approximately near 1:30 a.m. and end approximately at 2:30 a.m.  I record these in parallel.

Typically, I create a recording either by 

(1) using the TV Guide and clicking Record Series. or by
(2) using the Scheduler to do a Manual recording  
 
The recordings that start approximately near 1:30 a.m. and end approximately at 2:30 a.m. comprise of 60 minutes of video (as expected). 

The recordings (Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert) that  start approximately near 11:30 p.m. and end approximately at 30 minutes after midnight comprise of only 30 minutes of video.  These are short of the 60 minutes expected.

For some strange reason the 11:30 p.m. recordings stop suddenly at midnight instead of recording through-midnight to 30 minutes after midnight.

I have checked the nrecord logs.  No errors exist.  Also, my PostProcessing.bat starts too early at midnight instead of at 30 minutes after midnight.

I checked the Schedule Recurring description of the start time and end time.
I checked the table RECURRING_RECORDING  (I am at EDT(UTC-4)  StartTime and EndTime.
These two values were scheduled before midnight and after midnight.

This "stop at midnight" problem seems strange.
What should I do next?

Thank you.

Hi Folks...

I have been using nextpvr for quite a few years with a DVB-T tuner with great success - the old compro just keeps on going!


as i will soon be upgrading the machine, and the old card will be retired, i have started using the FTA IPTV channels to do the same thing...

Only it behaves like there is only a "single" tuner on that device....

what happens is - if the programs overlap, i get the first bit of the earlier scheduled recording, and it stops when the later recording starts...
I then end up with the first bit of one show, and the last bit of another...


with the hardware tuner - i get a warning if i overlap recordings on different TS streams (mux) ....so i cant actually screw that up (i can record as many channels on the same stream as i like)

With the IPTV streams - there is no such warning....so im not sure if the concept of a 'mux' applies...each channel seems to have its own .m3u url...

I'm just wondering if there is a setting i am missing, or if it is a limitation of the resources available to the IPTV device?
(or NPVR cant actually record simultaneous iptv streams)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated...

Win 10 64 system, updating from version 6 to version 7. Got an error statement upon running the install.exe. After install, I cannot access the localhost url. I can access the desktop app, and the tray app never goes green.
