Every two weeks or so, I have to manually update the TV guide by pressing "Update EPG" in settings. If I do not, series recordings will not happen. Is there a setting I can change so this is done automatically? I am using the paid version of schedules direct.
Been using NextPVR for a few months without a hitch but just this week the TV guide has stopped working. I should note that setting up the .xml and .bat files wasn't simple but following the Wiki guides and Forums here allowed me to achieve the dream. There have been no changes made to the Scripts folder or to the system in general. At first I thought it was a Kodi issue as my clients suddenly stopped showing new/scheduled recordings nor did they show guide info. So I checked NextPVR on my server PC, Windows 8.1 Intel i5, and the guide info did not appear in NextPVR either. Hence, the Kodi clients didn't have any EPG data to pull through.
I'm fairly tech savvy and can follow instructions well and am usually able to 'fix' things with some guidance. Attached are my logs and if any further info is needed to detect the problem I will surely supply it.
Does the client use the same DB that the server uses?
If so, then the playback position should be the same for both the client and server?
I've seen an instance where my client reports a recording has reached the end and "do I want to delete it" but if I go to the server it will resume where I originally stopped it.
I have a few .mp4 files with subtitles embedded.
If I try to play them in NPVR the right click menu says subtitles 'disabled', and I cannot find any setting in v3.9.2 (161119) to switch them on!!
They will play in VLC player if I switch on the subtitles from the right click menu.
im having a bit of an issue with time shifting when watching live tv in kodi. I have enabled the setting in kodi and i can pause live tv, but when i go to resume from the pause it automatically jumps from when the channel was paused straight to real time. i have only tried on kodi 17 as all my devices are running this but i get the same results in windows, android and on a raspberry pi.
i have the tuner device connected to a win7 computer and am watching the tv over wifi. i read that it could be decoder related so i tried installing the saf6 filters but still have the same results.
Edit: it works as expected in kodi v16 on my spare raspberry pi 2, you pause the live tv and it resumes playing from where you paused it.
I just got my NextPVR working this past Friday. Hauppauge WinTV Dual Tuner, plugged into a Windows 10 Laptop,running NextPVR Server. (backend) I have a Amazon FireTV, loaded with Kodi Krypton,running the NextPVR Client. I have manually downloaded some Channel logos, renamed them to match the Channels and they show up on the Backend and on the Channel list of the Client, but not the Guide. Overall, the Guide on the NextPVR Client is not as awesome as the NextPVR Guide on the Laptop. Not all the channels are populated with content information. (What's now playing, next show, etc.) Are there more things I can do to get the Full usage of the Guide in Kodi? I', loving it so far and I just want to fully maximize the experience.
When i click on guide, I am getting an unhandled exception error that says "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". It was working fine until it stopped recording a couple of weeks ago. I had pending recordings that were mostly in the past. I upgraded to the latest version, and now I get this error or something similar whenever i click on "guide". I use Schedules Direct for my EPG.
I have attached my logs. Please let me know if anyone knows how I can fix. Thanks.
Hello,
I have an AverMedia M135-A PCI Analog TV Tuner card installed in my PC. The problem is that when I try to set it up in NextPVR, it's just not there. I have drivers for it and it has worked with WMC.
Is there a way to add it manually or do I just have to wait for support to come?
Finally about to get my npvr system going again. But, while it works it is a PITA to define some 100 channels for 3 different pc's on the iptv device. Is it possible to make an export-for-iptv function so that I can export channels on one pc and just import them on another for the iptv device? Such a function would save me days of manual work....
