Hi all- Having problems streaming my FM channels with Firefox/Chrome through the web interface of NEXTPVR. ATSC and analog video channels work fine. Streaming the FM channels through the NEXTPVR GUI works fine.

When I try to play the FM channel through the web interface, I see this error under the video player box:
"Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)"

I think I have captured here log files exhibiting problem.

Any input appreciated!

Verizon charges are getting out of hand with my bill reaching nearly $200/mo. Granted I have excellent service but I am considering moving to Optimum and saving at least $60/mo.

I have two burning questions regarding using cable cards with Optimum. My current setup with Verizon works very well with mostly Fox channels NOT marked as "copy-freely." I use a set top box for those. I know that HDHomeRun will return digital rights management(DRM) status by channel when asked to "Detect Channels." Hauppauge DCR-3250 does not. HDHomeRun also returns the encoding by channel as either MPEG2 or h.264. Again, DCR-3250 does not.

My Optimum service area for the channel lineup I believe is identified as Dutchess County in the Mid Hudson Region.

Questions:

1) Does anyone in forum-land know how Optimum stacks up as far as "copy-freely" channels?

2) Can anyone offer a list of the channel lineup as reported by HDHomeRun that shows encoding?

I would greatly appreciate if some one in this Optimum service area would upload the <HDHomeRunDeviceIP>/Lineup.xml file created by detecting channels. That file will have all the information I need to help me decide on moving to Optimum.

Many thanks.

I get the following error when I try to go in to Devices in setting

This is a fresh install on Windows Server 2016. I tried reinstalling but nothing changed. I've attached my log.

with this call:
http://server:8866/service?method=channel.list

Is there a flag I can set to say order by device type? Or do I need to create a group of channels, and get a group id posted in the url to restrict to a device type (ie a colossus)?

I've built a new AMD machine, and would like to move the TV tuner card over to it, and NextPVR. However, I don't want to go through the hassle of re-discovering and editing all the channels including setting up EPG.

What are all the files I need to move over to make a seamless migration over to the new PC?

Thanks,

guys,

i have been plagued with kodi never refreshing the recorded shows list unless i restarted kodi.

i think i have found the issue.

it seems network related. my house is networked and my nextpvr box is in the basement. it goes thru a high-end switch in that room and then to my office and thru a cheap switch.

if i bypass that cheap switch then npvr refreshes as expected.

i note that sniffing the packets using wireshark, those packets to retrieve the list of recorded shows (via web service recording.list) would result in reset acks back from the server when going thru the cheap office switch. So the actual list of record shows was not received.

thought this might help others out there.

i can provide the actual network packets if anyone wants.

Hello everyone.
I use a cablecard with service from Comcast. Comcast recently made all the channels MPEG4 and broke how I watch channels. I have tried changing the MPEG4 decoders in settings and nothing has worked. What should I do? Is there a patch I can install?

Hello,

I am having trouble finding where I would enter APIDs manually.

I would like to copy multiple instances of a specific channels using different APIDs. I did export the channel XML file, but I don't see a tag for changing the APID in it.

Thanks so much.

Peace

So last night I installed the latest "super" update for Windows 10. And after my PC had rebooted I discovered that my 2 NMT's no longer work.

Not sure where to start. Here's the output from NMT Syntax Check. Note that originally the Username and Password were blank-- the information that's in the report below was added by me in a desperate attempt to self-diagnose before coming here.

I am working with the REST api in Emby. But sometimes for some reason I don't get any information back.
I just debugged and waited for some time.

When I do then a call to the webservice with a SID that I generated at startup. It doesn't work. If I generate a new sid. It's working again.
Does the SID expires at some time?
