I think others have had this issue, but I've not found a resolution.
The problem is, for some stations I can't directly go to a sub-channel. For example (using Kodi frontend):
1. Go to channel list and select 17-2
2. Get spinner and eventually "Tuner Not Available"
3. Go to channel list and select 17-1 - it comes in immediately
4. Channel-up to 17-2 and it comes in immediately
NextPVR has been working spectacularly for me for quite some time now, however, I have on issue that I am unsure how to fix. The issue is, files that I have placed in my recorded TV folder do not show up inside NextPVR under Recordings. New recordings made by NextPVR show up just fine.
Problem occurred under these circumstances:
I was running NextPVR 3.9.2. When I noticed 4.0.4 was posted, I downloaded it and installed it over top of my 3.9.2 install. A few days passed, and my wife told me her new recordings were not showing up in Kodi. When I investigated, I found that installing NextPVR 4.0.4 had reset my TV recording directory to a default. After correcting the setting, I checked the default folder and my wife's recordings were there, so I just moved them to my real recordings folder. Unfortunately, simply moving the files does not make them show up in NextPVR's Recordings list, and therefore, Kodi does not see them either.
My question is, is there a way to force NextPVR to rescan (re-index, refresh, whatever word you want to use) the recordings folder and update the Recordings list? It does not seem to be happening on its own.
Bought a new 65" 4K TV. NPVR now has chunky fonts and blurry playback. It looks like 640x480 upscaled to HD. Windows itself looks great at 1920x1080. The UI is set at 1920x1080 on the general settings page. What's wrong with this picture?

NPVR Works on Windows backend server (plays live TV) but stopped working with KODI.
Attempting to restart recording service produces the error in the attached screenshot. Up until this occurred 4.04 was working very well.
I am on a Windows 10 machine using the newest version of NPVR. All has been working fantastic. I use schedules direct for my TV guide data and it matches with Direct TV PERFECTLY.
I recently picked up a Happauge Tuner for over the air channels. Although Schedules direct does give me the proper data for what is being aired and for future airings, I notice that the TV guide in NPVR isn't always tagging a new (1st aired) TV show as "New" when working with over the air channels. It works fine for Direct TV listings, but has issues with Over The Air channels. I went to the websites for both of my favorite over the air channels , "Escape" and "Justice Network" to see when TV shows (1st aired) are coming on, and, matched it with NPVR guide data and NPVR isn't tagging them as new shows. Sometimes it tags as a new show, sometimes it doesn't. I am assuming this is more of a Schedules Direct issue than NPVR. NPVR is only as good as the data it receives
So, with the above said, does anyone else have this issue with Schedules Direct when working with OTA TV? And, if so, is there an alternate source that would be a little better at identifying new TV shows for the OTA TV rather than Schedules Direct?
Any amount of info anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated
Just installed 4.0.4 on my Win10 server machine. Started testing by first turning on the "Legacy..." option for the .ts reader. Record, playback, live TV all seem to work perfectly. No regression. Thank you.
When I unticked the "Legacy..." option for the .ts reader, playback and live TV degraded with the same symptoms: video and audio appear to be playing at a faster-than-normal frame rate and the audio lags the video. Very strange. I may be able to create a screen capture to illustrate the problem if you feel it necessary. I could find no remedy by changing decoders. The only thing I could find that creates the problem is the TS Reader option.
Logs are attached. Is there something I should try?
With 4.0.4 DVB-T radio channels aren't working properly.
Starting a radio channel I get silence, though the stream is being saved to the "Temp" directory fine. If I first view a tv channel and then switch to the radio channel it sometimes plays the audio. I have attached log extracts of doing both.
Switching to another radio channel results in silence again until I switch to a tv channel and back again. Sometimes changing channel from a radio channel just hangs NPVR.
If I select the "use legacy TS..." option then some radio channels will start playing immediately without having to view a TV channel first and when changing between radio channels, and using the "switch to a tv channel and back to radio" trick results in a few seconds of audio and then silence. (stream is still recording to disk in Temp just as before)
Additionally there's no OSD at all showing on these radio channels (completely black window).
I am using XMLTV / TV Guide to download my channel guide and it is working great but I have one issue...I am in a location that receives channels from two different markets and there doesn't seem to be a way to select more than one market's channels on the TV Guide website. Is there a way to update my program guide using XMLTV and mulltiple OTA markets?
I noticed with the new release that my playback will hang sometimes when I do multiple skips in quick succession, as I do when skipping thru commercials. I don't remember this happening with the previous release.
If you look at the logs I had a hang with "Grantchester".
Thanx.
I upgraded from v3.9.2 to v4.0.4 (after first closing NPVR service), and now I can't access the NPVR web server - I get a timeout when attempting to access it on the localhost. I've tried rebooting, then renaming config-web.xml and restarting the NPVR recording service, but neither helped. I can open the NPVR application and see the WEPG etc, but have no web access. I attach my log files.
