Hi All,

Quick question:

With direct TV, I was able to use a program called Dtvtune.exe and change the channels on my set top box with the command "C:\Users\Public\NPVR\Scripts\http\dtvtune.exe -ip 192.168.0.8 -channel %1"

Are Xfinity receivers capable of doing this as well ?

I know the newer NEWA doesn't play well with Windows explorer in Windows 10 (i.e playback freezes after 10 seconds of play) but should it work with Edge?
I can play recordings in Edge but there are no visible controls (pause etc.) and no timeline visible at the bottom of the screen.

I've been watching shows I recorded months ago - so no logs available(Npvr3.9.2, HDHR Prime) - and have found a few that won't play.

Any idea how I can fix/remove the first 1 min of the file, I cut a chunk from the end of the file, it plays fine.
Sample of same episode - Beginning & End
Beginning chunk
End chunk
Thanks

I just signed up for Subscriptions direct so I am on their free 7 day trial.
I found all my channels when scanning, updated the EPG, which seemed successful.
Then when I get to TV Guide I always get the error I attached.

I get the error below when I try to look at the TV Guide inside NextPVR, what am I doing wrong or missing?

Thanks.

Hi all,

been messing around with different decoder configurations.

I am trying the Microsoft one which worked with my Happauge PVR but not with my HDHomerun prime

Getting the below error

Is this a setting I am overlooking or is it just not compatible?

This particular decoder works with some channels, but not with others. I suppose certain channels are broadcasting using different codecs?

And while I am on the subject, i do NOT mind paying money if I have to buy decoders. what is the best ones I can possibly get for NPVR? As I said, i will purchase if needed.

Since I got my HDHomerun prime some strange things have been happening (while using the Cyber Video SP/Decoder For the MPEG 2 option) to recordings and I suspect it is a decoder issue

For example, every so often as my recordings are playing back it is as if I have a 1/2 second of the video missing (a drop ?)....You can hear a word missing from a sentence if someone on the TV is speaking. not a major issues, but, the issue is there and it is bugging me

I have recently started having a problem where live TV freezes after several seconds. It started occasionally on some channels (mostly HD channels) but is now happening on all channels. It is only live TV, it records correctly with no issues and playback of recordings works correctly. If I try to watch live TV I get a few seconds then it freezes and an error message pops up "Nextpvr PVR client Tuner not available." I have attached my log files. Thanks!

I'm sure this topic has come up before. But what having two or more backend NPVRs like MythTV allows? It rather disenchanting that MythTV is the only back end platform that does this.

The "original Air Date" is actually very important to see in the TV guide and in the search results. I find it interesting that NPVR shows the season and Epnum of a show but not its 'original air date' unless using the web guide. When scheduling a recording, Original Air date is crucial to making the NPR guide surfing far easier and more enjoyable for the user especially when keeping track of up and coming shows. Season and Episode numbers are also beneficial but mainly after the show has been recorded and consolidated into a digital library.

Windows Media Center's lists the OAD and it really is a benefit. Lets have the OAD in the NPVR native Guides and search engine.

Hi,

i used NextPVR for long time on a Windows XP-Machine with a Hauppauge SAT-Card, Newa and VLC media playr, which works great together.
Now i try to setup my new homeserver with Windows Server 2012 R2 (German), current NextPVR 3.9.2 (161119), current LAV Filters 0.70. I want to use a Telestar Digibit Twin (SAT>IP). The Telestar Device is recognized automatically, device setup and scan was done succesfully. On the server the streaming is working, but it doesn't work on client-side. It doesn't matter if it is a NextPVR Client, the classic webinterface with vlc or the next webinterface with html5. I tried with IE and Firefox.

At the "ndigitalhost-21.log" i see an "2017-06-22 22:27:24.366 [ERROR][8] Unexpected error in RTSPKeepAlive (terminating thread): System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Der Thread wurde abgebrochen.
bei NShared.DigitalRecorder.RTSPKeepAlive()"

Current logs are attached.

It doesn't matter if the firewalls on both sides (client & server) are on or off, it doesn't matter if i use LAN or WLAN.

Any ideas whats going wrong?

Best regards from germany

So, as you can see by my title, I currently have 2 boxes in my possession. For now, only the Happauge is running on my Windows 10 machine with NPVR. It is actually running great. Never a glitch. But, being the geek I am, I had to look into this HDHomerun Prime. I did all my homework. I got my access cable card from my cable company. Verified that channels will not be blocked (Copy protected) and gathered all the right equipment to make this happen

So, now, it is up and running. But it isnt running in NPVR. The only reason I got the HDHomerun Prime was to stream live TV. But, now I see what this device can do

Does anyone out there think I am better off running the HDHomerun Prime box on NPVR instead of using the Happauge? Will there be better outcomes?

Just curious as to what everyone's thoughts are
