Does anyone know of a way to get the true IPTV services like Playstation Vue or Sling TV, DirecTV Now to work with Next PVR?
Right now I used the bootleg services like Nitro IPTV or Vader Streams... they provide you with a m3u link and that is simple to setup with NPVR. The legit services I mentioned don't provide you with anything like that. You are probably wondering why I would even want to do this. Well I like to watch everything inside of Kodi..Live TV, my TV Show Library and my Movie Library all in one spot. So I figure if there is a way to get something like PlayStation Vue's channels to register in NPVR then I can run it through Kodi and that would fix all of my issue. The IPTV services I use right now are too unreliable.
Let me know any Idea's even if it includes buying some hardware.
As the tittle says is there a way to change the group that shows inside the tv guide. In nexpvr windows you do it by going right next to where it says meny and clicking groups. Is there a button to simulate that in this interface?
Thanks!
Hello,
First of all great work.
I was wandering if there is a way to update or tweak the importer function to also read the tv-logo from the m3u list given by the provider.
This is usually in the below format :
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="RTV21.al" tvg-name="RTV 21 HD AL" tvg-logo="http://cdn.mypanel.tv/picon/rtv21al_2.png" group-title="Albania",RTV 21 HD AL http://theactualurl.m3u8
So the info is given at the tvg-logo="url". Maybe we can pull this only once and cache it.
I have tried to write my own code to do this and rename the logonames to match the channel names as they appear in npvr however because the channels have characters like &/ and other control characters i cannot create a filename with the those characters so the logo name and tv name don't match.
If there is code available which i can modify and help ouyt in any way let me know.
Is it possible to remote connect with Nlite? For instance if I'm traveling and I connect to an Xfinity hot-spot, is it possible to SSH, or other, into my home machine with Nlite? Or is that beyond the scope of NLite?
Hello guys and girls new member , just getting started with NextPVR have it installed and waiting on my tuner from hauppauge the 955q
Not sure if the wish has been covered. But
add/delete individual channels manually.
You can scan 'DTV Air', cable or 'Analog Air' individually,
and you can stop any one of them at any time, and it will keep the results thus far.
eg - there is no reason to waste your time scanning DTV 52 thru 69 since you will never find anything there.
For US/CA
That way if a new sub channel is introduced in your viewing area you don't have to scan all
Most Videos today (BluRay) are of the "Scope" variant (some are "Flat", but that isn't much help either). Film formats still don't match TV formats (anywhere near), so when you're watching that latest Disney Sci-Fi soap opera (Star Wars), you wind up watching the movie in the middle of your TV with black bars at the top and the bottom and with the Subtitling on, it's right over that soap opera's imagery while the empty black bars at the top and bottom are unused.
Would it be too hard to offer "smart" subtitling, where it would (excluding positioned subtitles) place the subtitle vertically aligned to top or bottom based on size, much like TVs with subtitling do (our Gym has exercise machines that have small TVs and their subtitling display puts the text at the top or bottom based on some kind of reasoning), most of the time subtitling on NPVR is just below center in all things Video and TV).
Actually, it was happening with 4.1.0, since 4.0.4 and most likely the TSReader, is there a recommended CodeC (up to date) listing that should be used with this new TSReader to remove the issue, as the video will lag for about 5 seconds and then jump to where it should be. Before the jump it progressively gets slower until it almost stops. Would returning to an earlier TSReader be possible or not, the 3.9.7 one I believe was the one I was using had that bug at the start but after a commercial skip, there was no lag (of a considerable amount).
With all the varied CodeCs out on the 'net, would be a valuable resource to download a specific CodeC batch from here that will ensure consistent performance across all devices. This PC and the PVR PC have totally different CodeC lists for use on NextPVR and I'm not even sure if the ones on this PC would benefit the PVR PC.
With the PC running as a PVR connected to a 16:9 TV (on another input), when I turn the PVR on (wake from sleep, remote is not capable of bringing it out of sleep as it isn't a "mouse" or "keyboard", thanks ASUS), the system comes back from sleep, but NextPVR is totally black, until I turn the mouse on on the remote and move it, then poof, it's there. Only happens after a duration of idleness. The screensaver is set to None on NextPVR and there are no savers on the PC and the Power Management has it off. While working on the 4.1.0 update, after about 30 mins with the TV off, I came back to the TV, turned it on and not in full screen mode which is how I left it, NextPVR's whole client area within the border was black, again until I moved the mouse in it and poof, it came back. Almost like a screensaver inside it alone, the rest of the screen was how I left it. Does the default theme offer a builtin screen blank saver? At least 4.1.1 seems to keep itself "on top" as previous versions before didn't and I had to keep using the mouse mode to click it in front of the task bar (now that I've said that, it'll make a liar out of me tomorrow or the next day).
Recently, I missed a recording as I realized that the channel mapping info was wrong for one of my channels. I changed it to the correct one, but now I've noticed that when I click on 'Details' for some channels it doesn't show the channel I just picked, but if I go to the 'Bulk Map', it is correct - and based on the listings, it certainly seems I'm getting the right listings.
I checked the channels and here are examples of what I'm seeing:
Network: CBC; #5.1; Details: CBC Toronto (6); Bulk Map: CBC Toronto (6) -> match
Network: CTV; # 9.1; Details: CITSDT YES HDTV (9); Bulk Map: CTV Toronto (8) - > not a match; CTV callsign is CFTO, not CITS
Network: TVO; # 19.1; Details: CICA TVOntario (141); Bulk Map: CICA TVOntario (2) -> not a match, but CICA is correct callsign and listings are same
Network: TheCW; #23.1; Details: CBC News Network (23); Bulk Map: WNLO (166) -> not a match, different stations
Network: Global TV; #41.1; Details: Global Ontario/CIII (3); Bulk Map: Global Ontario/CIII (3) -> match
Network: City TV; #57.1; Details: Black Entertainment Television (Canada East) (57); Bulk Map: City Toronto (7) -> not a match
So it seems the info I see when I click on the 'Details' button is based on matching up a listing with the channel number (mostly). In any case, it's strange that when I change the mapping in the 'Details' area it doesn't seem to 'stick'? But it does show correctly in the bulk map.
