I'm running NextPVR on a Windows 10 back-end.
Lately, I've been experiencing "Tuner No Longer Available" Errors sporadically when running Kodi on my Raspberry PIs with the NextPVR Addon.

PI#3: Kodi/17.6 (X11; Linux armv6l) LibreELEC/8.2 HW_RaspberryPi/1.0 App_Bitness/32 Version/17.6-Git:a9a7a20
PI#1: Kodi/17.6 (X11; Linux armv7l) LibreELEC/8.2 HW_RaspberryPi/1.0 App_Bitness/32 Version/17.6-Git:a9a7a20

The error happened to me twice this morning (6/25/18 @ 7:40 ON pi#3 AND @9:01 AM ON PI#2). After the 2nd event I immediately went to my NextPVR Windows 10 server and zipped the log files.

I noticed the following in web.log for pi#1:
2018-06-25 09:00:03.415 [DEBUG][32] Waiting for more data (pos: 1671168, len: 1676960, avail: 5792

After many repetitions of the above error, I got the following:

I have a Hauppauge WinTV ATSC Quad Tuner card, model 1609
The drive holding the temporary ts files has 1.2 TB of free space

Any idea what's causing this problem?

I've attached the zipped log files for your inspection.

Thank you

My IPTV channels work great in the NPVR frontend. In Kodi, many of them freeze up in less than a minute and I eventually get the tuner not available message. Bringing up the buffer stats with Ctrl+Shift+O shows vq/aq pegged at 99 and then fall to 0, as if the stream dried up. Watching in NPVR or VLC is rock steady for hours on end though.

NPVR and Kodi logs attached.

sub, happy to share the IPTV credentials with you as well. Some of the channels work just fine through Kodi, but many others don't. Quite odd, but maybe you could see the difference between them.

running 4.2.2 and Kodi 17.6 stable, issue reproducible on Kodi in Windows, Linux, and RPi.

edit: The regular use case is running Kodi on the same PC as NPVR, so wired/wireless doesn't matter. FWIW, the same symptom exists on all remote RPi clients, both wired and wireless.

Remove or ignore the articles "the, a" in the program title for the Search Menu.

- A Farewell to Arms would be Farewell to Arms or Farewell to Arms, A
- The Addams Family would be Addams Family or Addams Family, The

Hi,
I've been unable too install npvr since dot net 4.6 became a requirement , even though this is installed, i have just tried again now with no improvement from the latest release,
the error i got was :" system.badimageformatexception unmanaged.dll"

and also " unhandled exception: system.io.filenotfoundexception: could not load file or assembly 'unmanaged.dll' or one of its dependancies. the specified module could not be found. at nrecord.program.main(string[] args)

I saw a few months ago a few were having similar errors to this and was wondering if any solution was found as i cant find one myself through the search function..

cheers james

Hi,

I wonder if & where can I find an m3u8 file of individual channels (and not the file that located on http://127.0.0.1:8866/channels and not http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=11, because it's not m3u8 file), For example:

http://127.0.0.1:8866/path/to/channel-11.m3u8
http://127.0.0.1:8866/path/to/channel-12.m3u8
http://127.0.0.1:8866/path/to/channel-13.m3u8
http://127.0.0.1:8866/path/to/channel-14.m3u8

and so on

Is this possible at all? if not, what alternatives can I use?
I need it to test an javascript-based media player that I create, and the "live?channel=..." or "/channels" options are not working...

Thank you very much

when on live tv pushing the square box (stop) causes the npvr to go to a black screen and hang. if left about ten plus seconds it appears to return to live tv. escape does the same thing from what I have tried. tried right click and STOP menu item. no dice. No way to get off live tv so far except for ctrl alt delete and then end the app. On the plus side it does appear to be recording the currently scheduled program.

I tried to downgrade and overwrite 4.2.2 with 4.2.1 but that did not work. I still seem to have 4.2.2

any suggestions appreciated.

Download Link Appears to be broken

Quote:- reverted HDHR device to UDP. Several users were having issues with new HTTP implementation.
- fixed issue where deleting channels from one device could cause channels to be removed from group even though the channel was still available on other devices
- fixed issue where channel icons wouldn't appear for channels with spaces at the end of the channel name

I just installed Android Client on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 and it appears to work quite nicely. Thank you for a terrific app! Live TV flawless. The guide is beautiful.

I've been exploring other features and have a couple of questions:

What is it that controls how much information is displayed for recordings of any type? I have quite a few recurring recordings on the server but only a few are shown on the tablet. Is this normal? Doesn't matter which recording category is asked for. In fact, if I ask for "All Recordings" or "Recent Recordings," I get none. Huh? I get only three entries for "Pending Recordings" and "Recurring Recordings."

Also, is there a user guide on how to use the app? Maybe a wiki somewhere? Playback control? Schedule or delete?

Great work, sub! Worth every penny!

Hi everyone,

I have a bunch of recordings I am trying to migrate from gbpvr to npvr, some of which are missing season/episode in the database (metadata?).
These are from early days of me just started using gbpvr, and I did not add the extra info using guidePlus.
The ones I recorded after guidePlus added season/episode to the EPG seem to have that info with the mpg file itself (no, it wasn't added to the file names), and that info is carried over to npvr database when I imported the recordings using VidImport.

Now, is there any way to add season/episode to recordings that weren't originally recorded with that info?
They do have subtitles stored with them some how, which are properly imported using VidImport.

Thanks for your help!
