When I change the channel for the first time after starting the software I get a message in the upper right corner of the screen that says reduced channel list. When I change channels some of them are missing.

How to I switch from the reduced channels list?

Not sure if I am posting this in the correct forum, if not I apologize.

Is it possible to "rip" or copy DVDs to a PC hard drive like audio CDs for later viewin. Is it possible to view the DVDs from within NPVR just like a show I had recorded off the antenna.

If this is possible what software (preferably freeware) is the best to use to do so. I would like to have them organized in the following manner:
[INDENT]> DVDs[/INDENT]
[INDENT][INDENT]> Movies[/INDENT][/INDENT]
[INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]> Genre[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT]
[INDENT][INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]> Name of Movie[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT]

[INDENT]>TV[/INDENT]
[INDENT][INDENT]> Genre[/INDENT][/INDENT]
[INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]> Name of TV Show[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT]
[INDENT][INDENT][INDENT][INDENT]> Season X[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT]

Thank You

In the area I live a directional antenna is better to use then an omni antenna. However like most people, I am sure, I have aerial signals coming from several directions. Although the antenna I have is adjustable with a remote, in today's world of DVRs / PVRs and / or multiple people watching different channels, I do not think it is optimal.

What is the best way to handle this situation? I have read that it is possible to combine the signals from multiple antennas, but I have also read that doing so could be a problem if the combine signals are out of phase. Has any hooked up multiple directional antennas successfully?

If the signals cannot be combined is it possible to install two capture cards into on PVR?

Thank You

I was watching the superbowl on Sunday and the auto extend function did not work. I am using schedules direct as my epg. I was wondering if there is a trick to ensuring its function. I have the box checked to enable auto extend but for some reason it didn't work. I attached my log. Thanks for any help

I'm trying to use my ATI card with NextPvr. The MediaCenter detects the card and can stream the channels I get using my HDTV antenna. When I goto the settings in NextPvr - devices my ATI does not show there.

I have attached the probe from the log

Any ideas how to get it going with NextPvr ?

I seem to have a problem with Autoremovemissingrecordings not working for certain older shows.
I tested it with a show recorded today and it worked perfectly but this show below (as an example) is still in the database and is never deleted despite my having deleted the entire show folder.

Actually, that's it. I originally deleted the folder Antiques Roadshow and everything under it. However when I recreated the folder Antiques Roadshow (but not Season 40), it then worked fine.

Something in the back of my mind was reminding me about some sort of defense mechanism for when NAS/USB drives are disconnected. Search forum....got it.

NoRemoveWhenTreeMissing was set to true. I set it to false and it worked.

So this parameter is defining the "root" as being on a per recording basis, rather than the defined recording directory. I can see that it absolutely has to be that way for people with multiple recording drives who mount them to specific sub folder and/or use junctions. So my actual solution is to not delete the root folder of a show, just the shows and/or season folders under it.

I thought I would just leave this here (with [solved]) in case others run into the same issue in the future but (mod) please delete if you prefer.

I'm having an issue where my video will often be pixelized or stutter when watching or recording live TV. It happens in both Kodi and NextPVR. CPU and RAM are not peaked. My Hardware is as follows



Display: AMD Radeon HD 5450

Processor: AMD fx™ 4300 Quad-core Processor 3.8GHz

RAM 16GB

Any ideas would be helpful

I have this file that NPVR recorded but won't play back. File is playable with AVS Media Player and AVS Video Editor but not VLC. Very strange.

Can one of the resident experts maybe take a look and advise? I can supply the scenario with which it was recorded.

I'm new with DropBox and did manage to upload the 450MB file but how do I tell you how to download?

Thanks.

Information which may be of help to someone:

For months I have been suffering from Poor Signal and Picture Breakup which I had put down to an inferior loft aerial.
Yesterday I replaced the old C/D Group Aerial (should have been changed to a wideband about 10 years ago) with a shiny new Log Periodic. (still in the loft)
Picture became much better with almost no glitches - - except on one of my 2 USB Tuners (PCTV BVB-T2) where the picture kept breaking up every couple of minutes.
Tried changing aerial leads etc., but nothing mad any difference and was convinced the tuner was dying.
I was about to order a replacement when I suddenly had a light bulb moment and pulled out the wireless keyboard & mouse dongle (2.4GHz ?) that was in a slot between the TV Tuners on a powered hub.
Suddenly all the picture breakup disappeared.
I've now put the keyboard dongle on a different USB slot on the back of the 'puter on a short USB cable to take it a couple of feet away from the tuners and all appears to be good. I'm not sure if it was electrical / RF interference or conflicting on the USB bus.

Hi, I've just this week installed NextPVR with Kodi on Windows 10. I have a Saber twin digital tuner card which has worked flawlessly on Windows 7 but I can't receive all the channels on 10. I am missing all the SBS channels 3x and channel 44. I live in Perth Australia. Can anyone help or has anyone had a similar problem?
