Hi, currently experimenting with nextpvr but having an issue with bulk map in that I don't get prompted for the rest of the channels and it doesn't save when trying to set epg source. I tried the patch below.
Re the NLite client, Sub wrote: To run it, simply extract into a directory somewhere onto your machine, and run the nlite.exe executable. It'll auto locate and connect to your NextPVR server running on the local network.

Either by switch or a config setting, is there a way to just tell nlite.exe where the server is?
I ask because it only works on the NextPVR host PC. If I run it from any other PC on my network it does not find it.
Am I missing something, or is there a setting somewhere in NextPVR that has to be set first?
* As a side note, NEWA is easily found using port 8866 on all of my PC's
Below is the message I get when run from a PC on the same network.

Ok. So I got nextpvr set up. It plays perfectly using 1 stream. However when I try and use the pip feature it will play that stream fine for about 10 seconds and then the pip screen freezes. The main screen continues to play fine. I've tried different default codecs but no luck. I have 11 tuners total. A pair of ceton tuners and an HD homerun prime. Any ideas on how to get it working? Thanks.
Can anyone tell me which Cablecard is compatible with NextPVR? My cable provider encrypts all digital channels as of a few weeks ago. I want to go to Windows 10 in the near future and continue using NextPVR and whatever Cablecard that will work. Please help.
So everything works flawlessly with regards to my NextPVR setup...until, I enable my VPN on my Kodi box. Essentially, because the set top kodi box is behind the VPN, it's IP address is "external" from my network and pointing NextPVR towards 192.168.1.127 no longer works because its an internal network address, which technically, Kodi is no longer a part of with the VPN running. I'm sure this has been covered before, I just had no idea how to search for my specific problem to be honest. I tried pointing the NextPVR client to my external public IP address but that didn't work either...maybe some sort of router config needs done to allow the external VPN address access to my PC on my network with the NAS attached? If there isn't an easy solution I'm just missing, then I'll just forget the VPN unless its needed at the time. It would be nice to have my VPN just startup when the Kodi box starts, but not if it's going to screw with my recordings. I'll just enable the VPN when needed, and leave it disabled otherwise. I REALLY hope this makes sense to someone and they have the perfect answer...thanks in advance folks.
I have a nice working copy of nextPVR, but I am thinking of installing Kodi and Exodus. Will installing these wreck my working nextPVR.
Is there a way to do it safely? PS I backed up my computer before I start.
Any thought of supporting NAS storage in an upcoming release of NextPVR? I would really love to move my recorded storage to a NAS share. If I can do that, then I can move the entire installation to a device that is dedicated just to the PVR. Right now, I have to use a machine that has other things running on it. I've considered building a new machine just for the PVR, but I really don't want an actual machine, I am considering a mini-pc that has just an internal SSD card and the storage would be on my NAS device.
Been searching online but cant seem to find a solution. I have set up nextpvr to work with kodi but i cant get any tv guide in nextpvr or kodi. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks
