On the Clients page of settings and the MVP/NVT Client setup; I have looked everywhere and can not find the real meaning of Number of Servers other than "the number of servers". Does this mean it will act as say 3 servers for 3 clients if the number 3 is inserted there.
Since you seem to be experimenting with an alternative cross platform client, and there's a windows build ready to try, is there a way to make nlite.exe connect to a remote server? The current build just looks for servers on the same LAN. Remote connection would be really useful...
Upgraded, started NextPVR, selected TV Listings, crashed with unhandled exception, could not load 'ElementOverrides' from assembly 'NextPVR, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. At TVListings.TVRecordings.TVRecordings.GetRenderList().
Can the aspect ratio of playback of a recording be adjusted? I am trying to watch a recording of a TV show with a 4:3 aspect ratio. I'm using my iPad Pro 9.7" and the NextPVR client app. The video looks flattened/squished and stretched out a bit (I'm guessing it's trying to play in 16:9. How do I adjust for this?
Just upgraded to the new version this morning. The previous version TV Guide was working fine, don't know what has caused it to stop. I can still play live tv and use the arrow keys to navigate channels, but have no idea how to set up a future recording without the guide. I'm not technical at all, but have attached the details from the error code NextPVR shows when I try to access the guide: (also included a screenshot of the error message)
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I am trying to apply the latest update and all seems to go well to completion. However, when NPVR is restarted I still get the upgrade available and current version 3.8.3 notification.
I have tried to apply the update from within NPVR. I have also tried closing all NPVR services, etc, turning Norton off and installing from the downloaded file but I get the same results.
I didn't have any problem upgrading from 3.7.7 to 3.8.3 and I don't think anything has changed on the computer.
I have a shortcut to go to the NEWA Modern Interface Home screen on my NextPVR server. ("http://192.168.143.10:8866/modern/index.html") After installing 3.9.2, I went to see the new Available Disk Space display which the release notes said was added. But it didn't show up. Then I clicked Reload, and there it was. :confused:
After a bit of testing, it seems like the information gets displayed if I use the URL "http://192.168.143.10:8866" which then automatically gets redirected to "http://192.168.143.10:8866/modern/index.html" or if I use the URL "http://192.168.143.10:8866/modern/index.html" (either via the shortcut or by typing in the entire URL) and then reload (i.e. it isn't included the first time the page loads, but then is included for subsequent loads).
While I like the look of the new interface, there are some things I can't do it in - so still using / liking the older interface for now. But ... when I try to go to /Guide2.aspx, it seems to want to force me to /modern/index.html. Is there a way to stop this? Every time I have to then manually force to /Guide2.aspx (as second time), to get there.
What if I want NextPVR to record in a compressed (H.264) file format to save space.....like MKV, MP4 etc. I don't mind the potentially inferior compressed file format but I tend to packrat stuff for a long time so space matters.
Also, if there is a solution to this does it work with comskip and other options like that? I haven't used any yet, but I am experimenting with multiple DVR programs (Plex, NextPVR, SiliconDust, etc) to find one that can do the most the easiest.
When switching from windowed to Full-Screen mode, I loose the video. Audio is still there, however on the monitor I only see the TV Guide. If I switch back to windowed, the video comes back.
