NPVR has been working great for a long time but suddenly it doesn't work. I'm using Windows 10 (64-bit). I've tried to restart the recording device but that doesn't help. I get this message:
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
My recording device works fine with DVBViewer. I've also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling NPVR.
I have attached my logs.
Lately my wife has noted that occasionally recordings are truncated after only a few seconds of recording. It is sporadic, and I can't see anything in the logs that suggests a problem. 2 examples in the logs are a Face-Off episode recorded 3/7 at 17:59 which contains only 9 seconds of video and an episode of Legion recorded 3/1 at 21:59 that has only 20 seconds. Grateful for any assistance, WAF is dropping precipitously

PS Just noticed that the thread immediately prior to mine ("incomplete recordings") describes the same issue, although my recordings are always either complete or just a few seconds long, no 10 minute recordings I'm aware of. My setup is a pretty new machine running Windows 10 and a HD-PVR connected to component outs from the set top box. I do have occasional issues with the HD-PVR where it seems to lock up and lose signal and I have to restart it, but when that happens we end up with a full length recording of a black screen, not a truncated recording with the correct show displayed. This truncation has been happening only over the past month or two, which makes me wonder if a Windows 10 update is involved. Last thing I can think of is that my recordings are going to an external drive (USB3) as that one has the most free space.
I've been using NextPVR for years, without any issues for the most part. My configuration: I have an antenna in the attic that is connected to a HDHomeRun Connect tuner, which is connected directly to my wireless router. My PC has a TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 Dual Band Wireless N900 wireless adapter. This setup has worked flawlessly for years.
Recently, most of my recordings are incomplete. A 30-minute or an hour long recorded show will only contain anywhere for few seconds to 10 minutes of video. A few recordings will be complete, but most are incomplete. The NRecord log file shows that the recording was started/terminated at the correct times. I sat at the computer and monitored the recordings one evening, and the NextPVR UI displayed that the shows were being recorded (as well as the NextPVR icon in the system tray... it stayed "red" for the correct amount of time). Those recordings also ended up being incomplete.
I thought the problem was that my Windows 10 computer had gotten sluggish, so I upgraded the RAM and performed a fresh install of Windows 10. Unfortunately, the problem occurred again last night and tonight. The recording of "The Middle" was only 23 seconds, the recording of Modern Family was 10 minutes, 21 seconds, and the recording of Lethal Weapon was 2 minutes, 50 seconds.
The only other change during this time is that I upgraded my wireless router to a Linksys WRT1900ACS (originally had the Linksys AC 1200). The computer is close to the router, and I haven't noticed any connection issues. Again, I've had this setup for several years with the AC 1200 wireless connection with no problems.
I've attached the logs. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I looked at NextPVR as I wanted a piece of server software to have my IPTV subscription on, and then be able to connect my Kodi clients to it.
The reason I wanted to do this is to centralise the IPTV alongside my terrestrial tuners in one backend, so the frontends are all presented with the same channels from my server.
However IPTV channels hosted by NextPVT seem to buffer to an unwatchable level when played back on my Kodi clients, whereas SD and HDTV channels played back on the same clients are perfectly good.
It led me to wonder whether anyone gets good output by sharing out IPTV in this way?
i noticed there were updates overnight and now, coincidentally, using the Microsoft MS DTV-DVD that I went back to using a while ago because it's the best for me, no longer works. Anyone else having this problem?
Swapping to elecard mpeg2 decoder works but isn't as good a picture.
I just download the NextPVR and it works well , I can see the channels on my local laptop, but I would like using KODI loaded on another laptop to access through Web server the channels ; well on my remote laptop punching the IP address and the port 8866, the web comes up with credential request; I put: "admin"as username but I don't know the default password,because i can't see it anywhere i would like you to coach me and tell me where to find the default password to access the GUI.
It seems to be 10 characters long.
Thank for your help
So, I occasionally end up with a run of IGL where there is an error at the end of "database is locked". The files get renamed, but the database doesn't get updated for the new name. It doesn't really bother me that the database doesn't get updated, since I don't watch the recordings made through NPVR, but I make use of the new name that is returned to do some other post-processing.
So, how do I avoid this, or how should I proceed when this happens? I just experimented and tried running it again, but I guess since the files were already renamed, nothing happened and it doesn't return the name.
I've attached the IGL log for one such lock situation. Thanks.
Receiving a "Method not found: 'System.String NUtility.EPGEvent.get_Significance()'." error popup message when doing almost anything in Next PVR.
Historically I leave the program running as the service and let it do it's thing. I then have MCEBuddy to convert the video files to formats usable on the tablet for trips to/from work and flights. I rarely have to open NextPVR except to delete the original recordings and add new programs to record. I noticed this morning when I went to try add a new program to record, I received the above error message. This locks up Next PVR and I have to kill it and restart the program. Anything I attempt to do, even just watching a video file results in the above error message. I have attached the logs and text from the popup dialog messages.
NextPVR version: 3.9.2
Any assistance that can be provided will be greatly appreciated.
I'm pretty sure this question has been answered, but I can find it.
I have Colossus connected to a Verizon Cable Box via component video. The Cable Box is set to ALWAYS output 1080i. I am getting HD recordings with no major issues.
My question is this: Where in the config file are the bit rate settings for this setup? I always thought they were the <mode720p>, <mode1080i> and <modeSD>. Recently, I happened to notice there is also an <ANALOG> setting (not in the HDPVR list). Since I believe the component video is actually an analog input, this got me wondering. Can someone clear this up? Am I using the correct settings for the Colossus?
