Iâm not sure if this is a NextPVR issue or KODI issue so I am posting in both forums.
I am able to successfully import recordings into NextPVR (NextPVR Settings > Recordings > Import Recordings) that were exported from NextPVR on another system (NextPVR Settings > Recordings > Export Recordings). That is, the imported recordings are displayed in both the NextPVR application (Menu > Recordings > Ready Recordings) and the NextPVR web interface (Recordings > All Recordings). The Recordings folder is set to the same folder on both systems.
HOWEVER, the recordings imported into NextPVR are not displayed in KODI 17.0 (Home > TV > Recordings). I am perplexed by this.
Comcast changed our lineup so I'm redoing the channel/recording setups, but this time I'm getting an unhandled exception error when I try to use the "Bulk Map" feature. If I go to 'details' and map a channel individually it works fine.
If I click "Bulk Map" I get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" The details box contains the following generally useless information:
If I delete all the channels and rescan, and click "Bulk Map", it initially works but the "XMLTV" column is empty and then the same exception occurs.
Code:

I have the following challenge and any help from others experience would be appreciated. I am running a Windows 10 PC as my HTPC server, with Nextpvr as the backend and recording live tv OTA to a set of HDD's. From there I am running comskip to delete the commercials. Using the x-newa add on, it works great on my HTPC. The challenge I'm having is actually getting the commerical-less recording to run to the android box I have connected to my other tv's in the living room and bedroom. I have the x-newa addon installed and running on them. It does all of the functions it should, shows the recording and upcoming recordings, guide, etc. but the recordings it plays still have the commercials in them. I've been searching forums and how-to's and can't seem to get a good answer on how to bring them to my tv android box. Frankly, in the ideal world, I'd like to just have them populate under the tv -> recordings in my home screen in kodi, but from what I've read that doesn't seem to be an option. I'd appreciate anybody's expertise in this.
I have added the advancedsettings.xml file to my userdata file on the Win10 machine, and added the parallelprocessing.bat to my scripts file but i'm at a loss as to why it doesn't work.
I've just tried out the playlist option with VLC using NextPVR URL http://localhost:8866/channels. VLC immediately started playing the first channel in the list and changing channels was easy.
Questions:
1) Is the list limited only to the first 25 channels? Exporting the VLC playlist does show the entire list of channels but only 25 appear in the context menu.
2) Can the list of NextPVR channels be limited the the channel group currently active in the TV Listings? I had an active group other than All channels but got the all-channel list anyway.
I've looked for option control in both VLC and NextPVR config.xml but with nothing obvious. Did I miss something?
Did a clean install of Krypton this weekend. Installed NextPVR (just like before upgrade). NextPVR works fine. I cant figure out how to enable it in Krypton. I click on TV and it says that i have not enabled an addon. I click on the list. Scroll to NextPVR. Click on it. Addon says its enabled.
This is on a Windows machine running Windows 7 with a Hauppauge tv tuner card.
It's probably something simple i am missing. Any help would be appreciated.
I've got a problem with a recording ending early every day, but I haven't figured out why.
It is setup to record every morning a show from 5:00-5:30, another from 5:30-6:00 and finally a show 6:00-6:30. I've got 2 tuners using an HDHomerun recording OTA signals and I believe this show is set for a 1 minute pre/post pad, so I don't think I have an overlap issue.
Each morning it records the first and second show with no problem, but the third show is consistently recording only 2 minutes from 5:59-6:01. All shows are on the same channel and the signal looks fine.
Attached is the NRecord.log from today. Any help would be appreciated.
I have loaded NPVR successfully in my other computers, but it is not working on the HP which just happens to be my media center box. That computer has a about 4-5 year old i3 processor, 4GB RAM and an integrated video processor. The only feature that works is the live TV and that works from only the right-click drop down menu. When I use the live TV main menu selection it looks like the attached. The EPG inconsistently appears from the main menu, but I cannot record from it.
I have removed any software that might cause incompatibilities (e.g., Plex, WinTV8, PlayOn). I do need to figure out how to check the integrated video processor, although it does work fine with all other media apps. I am using HDHomerun Connect as my tuner.
Alright I am thinking I just need to upgrade the hardware in my computer but I would like to get some thoughts before I go doing such things. Here's my problem. If something is recording and we're watching live TV on the main box, and then someone tries to watch something on a different device connected through wifi, there is a lot of buffering and or stuttering. Else if it's not recording both live streams are clear.
I'm not sure if it's the HTPC's hardware or my networking job. The HTPC is a single HHD, 8GB, intel i3, integrated GPU of sorts. I'm currently not near the PC to give exact specs. My networking job is as follows. The tuner and HTPC are connected to a secondary router with wifi turned off. That router is plugged into a network powerline adapater to connect to the main router that has the the modem connected and has wifi turned on.
It seems that any web interface will not show in Edge. Now I wonder how to disable transcoding in order to save limited resources. I'm aware that it would be impossible to play all national channels still on MPEG-2, but that's less important. Add filter by service type on Now page?
Not only that. I found that even some browsers like Opera will play it inside simple html5 page.
It might be useful to add optional EPG parameter which would enable VLC to display current song?
Im using emby and would like to use NextPVR as backend for live tv. And here is my problem:
Emby plugin for NextPVR can not use the groups in NextPVR server, so it shows me always "All channels", which are quite a lot (>1000).
I can rearrange this channels from within NextPVR settings, but then I have to move each channel step by step to the beginning by pressing the + button (which takes 0.5 seconds for each step). This means, for a channel on position 1000, I have to click 1000x the plus button, which takes 500 seconds at least. I have 20 channels to move, so this would be a hard working weekend for me ;-)
Ok, I can not believe that there is no good way to do this... I really need help here.
