Would like to get some help playing blu-ray .iso file as mentioned in the Blu-ray Plug-in in the Wiki help.

I followed the directions as best I can and the library seemed to register OK. But I can't seem to get the plug-in to appear in the list of plug-ins in the settings dialog. I'm not really sure where to unpack the zip file.

Hoping someone can help.

Thanks.

Even with the ts reader patch from the "freeze while skip" thread, channels from my HD-PVR2 (which are most of them) still have no playback at all.

The "please wait" screen stays up for several seconds, and then just a black screen with no audio. I've waited up to 30 seconds while trying, but never got playback.

With the MS decoder, the TS reader 4 stats are:

I was surprised just how well the Amazon Fire Stick plays NextPVR recording via Kodi given the usual recommendation to use a wired network connection for best results. I use X-NEWA and HD recordings play faultlessly and "Skip" although not perfect works acceptably well! The biggest weakness I found is the simple remote with no ability to page up/down or sideways the menu or EPG. There is the ability to simulate ordinary remote control keys but it takes four key presses to to do a "page down"! As I have 159 entries in my "Ready Recordings" menu its not practical to navigate to the end of the menu so I use it to watch Recent Recordings!

When doing the initial setup I could find no way to edit either of the xml I needed to change. Both installed text editors loaded the files but neither had an on screen keyboard to allow you to edit the text. In the end I used Kodi file manger to copy the files to a network share, edit them then copy them back.

Hi All,

I need a little help converting an avc/aac ts file to mpeg/ac3 ts file.

Notice I am only extracting 2 minutes of video starting at 1 minute from the start.

The code I'm trying to use is ...
ffmpeg -t 00:02:00.000 -ss 00:01:00.000 -i %1 -vcodec mpeg2video -aspect 16:9 -profile:v 4 -level:v 6 -b:v 15000k -bufsize 25000k -maxrate 25000k -vf "scale=1920:1080,yadif=0:-1" -acodec ac3 -ab 448k -ar 48000 -ac 2 -f mpegts -y "%~n1.ts"

When I try and open it in VideoRedo 3 I get the following error message "No PIDs specified when trying to open a transport stream"

If I use the following code ...
ffmpeg -t 00:02:00.000 -ss 00:01:00.000 -i %1 -vcodec mpeg2video -aspect 16:9 -profile:v 4 -level:v 6 -b:v 15000k -bufsize 25000k -maxrate 25000k -vf "scale=1920:1080,yadif=0:-1" -acodec ac3 -ab 448k -ar 48000 -ac 2 -f vob -y "%~n1.mpg"

The screen bleeds messages like ...
[vob @ 00000000025c6040] buffer underflow st=1 bufi=916 size=1792
[vob @ 00000000025c6040] buffer underflow st=1 bufi=1139 size=1792
---------------------------->
[vob @ 00000000025c6040] buffer underflow st=1 bufi=436 size=1792
[vob @ 00000000025c6040] buffer underflow st=1 bufi=659 size=1792
[vob @ 00000000025c6040] buffer underflow st=1 bufi=882 size=1792
Last message repeated 47 times

VideoRedo 3 is happy with the file generated but I do not like blood :eek:

Any help getting the first command to work would be much appreciated. :o

Hi,

i'm having trouble with live TV after updating to 4.0.4, using an HD-PVR2 (1517) and an HVR-1255, running on Windows 8.1.

I get just a black screen and no audio with the new tsreader no matter the decoder. Ticking legacy makes it work again, except it randomly freezes. This looks promising from the logs:

Attempted multiple android phones but nothing appears to be clickable. I'm able to log in, and see the landing page but they appear as text and not links. The hamburger button in the top right is also not clickable. Sharing screen shot. From a desktop browser all functionality is working for me. Let me know if more info is needed

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

I'm using an HD-Homerun tuner.

Logs attached.
Thanks.

Hello!

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.

Thank you in advance!

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?
