Several recurring recordings (Nova, Ask This Old House, +...) are working, 2 are not. No conflicts identified. Using "schedules direct" for my guide. Logs are attached.
"Noticias Telemundo" (WNEU - M-F 6:30 - 7PM) shows as "recurring" and "pending" - but isn't recording. It is scheduled at the same time as "Noticias Univision" (WUNI - M-F 6:30 - 7PM). I have a Hauppauge WinTV Dual HD - so I thought they'd both record, but only Univision gets recorded. I also visually scanned "pending" for potential conflicts and saw none.
"Noticias Telemundo Fin de Semana (WNEW - Sat/Sun 5 - 5:30PM) shows as "recurring" but not "pending." It isn't recording.
I found a related posting, "Recurring recordings not scheduling? Started by mattyb, 2016-09-11 03:52 AM" I don't think it applies because I didn't delete any recordings; at least I don't think so. Is there a way to check? This earlier posting also references using the "NextPVR.exe -removehistory" command to clear out that history and then "NextPVR.exe -updateepg" to have it reprocess and reschedule all of the recurring recordings." Not sure I want/need to try this but if so, I'm unclear how to do it; more detailed steps would be helpful and appreciated.
How can I fix whatever is blocking these recordings?
Thanks,
Bob
After the last update, my client is throwing an exception when trying to access the EPG. Client and server are on the same version: 3.8.3 (160929). Here is the exception:
I notice a few here that are having the same issue as me.
In that the nightly EPG is not able to refresh the epg completely after it does a rescan.
It then goes and deletes scheduled programs I assume because it believes that they are no longer valid.
Here is the EPG for Next Monday about 8am created at 2:30 this morning
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
Here you can see a scheduled recording for he Late Show. Which is not expecting any episodes for the next seven days.
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
Then i run a manual epg update
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
Here is the epg for the same day ..ie Next Monday about 8am
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
As you can see it has now found all the information.
When i now look at the scheduled recordings for the Tonight show you can see that there are a few
It apears to be a bug and i suspect affecting more people than myself. As it only seems to occur for certain channels each night my issue can't be an isolated case.
I have several failed (no data returned) recordings from my CTON infinTV6 tuner. Logs attached.
Looking over my logs I see that the shows are all being recorded on a specific tuner #24.
Shows are
Supergirl, Lucifer, Flash, No Tomorrow, Modern Family, Code Black, and Blindspot.
So knowing that they all seem to be the same tuner, and you could confirm if you see something else in the logs, my main problem now is that in NPVR settings Devices all the devices show as 0 with no description. So to move this possible 'bad' tuner down in the list means that
1 - I am guessing that it is the first tuner based on the order and
2- If I rearrange for any other reason later or just forget, I will lose track of the bad tuner and have issues again.
Is there any way to add descriptions to the device information in NPVR settings so I can keep track of the tuners (numbered the same as NPVR internal would be great so I can match a log to device)!?
Also, as a side note, and I have said this before, it would be really great if NPVR could always use the same tuner when recording back to back shows on the same channel. That reduces the need for additional tuners. Basically I only need 4 and occasionally 5 tuners so the 6th should be extra, but the way the schedule defines what tuner to use makes me really need more...
My cable provider is sending one of the channels in letterbox (4:3) aspect and the rest in 16:9. When watching TV directly from the PC running NextPVR, I can adjust the aspect ratio to fill and the channel looks great, but this change only shows up locally and not in KODI. Is there anyway to just change that one channel in the KOD plugin to display using the fill aspect ratio?
I have lots of long filenames in my video and music libraries, e.g.:
Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (Feat. Kimbra) - Live at the 2011 ARIA's.mp4
Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra).mp4
Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Missy Higgins Live).mp4
Currently under view list mode the right hand side of these titles is truncated
so all 3 of the above titles are shown the same.
Please display the full filename of the currently selected filename in
the box on the right, the box now used for metadata.
I don't use the DVR capabilities of NPVR for quite a while now since I cut cable, but I still use it as a media player. This has been working wonderfully for quite some time. I was running NPVR 3.7.7 on Windows 10 64-bit, though I've just tried updating to NPVR 3.8.3 and it doesn't seem to help this issue I'm now having. Starting yesterday, when I try to play any video now from the Videos menu, I get this error:

Looking around in the settings, I see the message that "WARNING: The DirectX runtime is not available on this machine. Software rendering instead", which seems very odd, as I don't recall seeing that message before, and it had been working fine. I've downloaded the Microsoft DirectX runtime that the message links to (https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download...x?id=34429), but when I try to install it I get this message:
Code:
---------------------------
DirectX Setup
---------------------------
You must be running Windows 98, Windows Millennium Edition,
Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 family
to install the DirectX 9.0.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
Which does somewhat make sense, as I wouldn't expect to need to install the runtime on a Windows 10 system as I'd think it'd already be there. I"m not sure if this is related to videos not playing, or this is an unrelated red herring.
It looks like Windows 10 updates installed on 10/28/2016 (KB3199986, KB3201860, KB3197954); it's entirely possible that it hasn't worked since then, though I think I've played videos successfully between then and when I noticed it not working yesterday. I'm not aware of anything else recently that could have changed.
I've attached my NPVR.log, which seems to have more details on not being able to load DirectX properly. I'd appreciate any direction you could give. Thanks.

Im using the latest release of NextPVR, and want to remap all my channels to XMLTV. Ive manually mapped the first under "Details", then hit Bulk Map, and see the list. I don't see any option to map all the channels. Also, if i Manually select XMLTV from the drop down, it doesn't get apple to my channel list. It seem I can only change the mapping one channel at a time from the Details window.
