The NextPVR TV Guide (imported from Schedules Direct) has been working great EXCEPT for WNEU channel 34 (from Goffstown NH, virtual channels 60.1 Telemundo - WNEU-HD, 60.2 WNEU-Xitos, and 60.3 WNEU-Cozi). When I click on 60.1 in the Guide, instead of getting the Spanish language programming of Telemundo, I get English language programming which is sometimes listed under 60.3 Cozi and sometimes not listed on any of the 3 virtual channels. Interestingly, the "INFORMATION" I see while watching the incorrect program in 60.1 is still the correct information (in Spanish) that's in the Guide and that pops up while watching the wrong English language program. I know it's not a transmission problem because I still haven't cut the cord with my cable company and my wife records several Telemundo (virtual 60.1) programs every day. Today (11/18 shortly after 9 AM) the Guide listed 60.1 = Un Nuevo Dia, a live variety and talk program in Spanish; what came up when clicked was an English language western not listed on any of the 60.1, 60.2 or 60.3 channels. 60.2 correctly brought me to Lions for Lambs in Spanish - which is what is listed in the program and what come up on the screen when I clicked "watch;" this channel has been functioning properly. When I clicked 60.3 today all I got was a black screen; unusual because until now this channel correctly brought up the program listed in the Guide for 60.3 Cozi.
I contacted Schedules Direct and they confirmed that their listings were all correct (as they are in the Guide for me in NextPVR) and Robert Kulagowski via RT <rt@schedulesdirect.org> was unable to answer what was going on. Instead he recommended: "You'll need to explain what you're seeing on the NextPVR forum so that sub can look into it. What I sent you is the data that we have on the server, and you saw that 60.1 is Telemundo, so I don't know why you select it and then end up with something else."
Help please. I'm investing a lot to cut the cord and stop paying exhorbitant amounts to cable - but I'm holding off on doing so until I can get all of this working correctly.
Thanks in advance for any explanations, guidance and recs you can provide.

As a previous user of the now near-deprecated TV Listings plugin, I miss the friendly dates on recordings - eg Yesterday, Tomorrow etc. Could this be made an option, please?
I'm able to bring up my guide data, and see all my recordings and whatnot, but I am unable to schedule any new recordings remotely. It throws me a repeated error (have to tick a box to tell it to stop throwing this error).
Accessing NEWA from my home network I'm able to schedule recordings fine...any idea why this'd be?
So, I am using NextPVR 3.8.3 with renderer codec EVR, Video Decoders CyberLink Video Decoder (PDVD13) and Audio Decover LAV Audio Decoder. NextPVR is running on a very high end machine with a dedicated M2 SSD for DVR recording with a tuner source of a Silicon Dust HD HomeRun with Amazon FireTV's as my clients. Everything is connected to an enterprise grade gigabit switched backbone of dell switches. Here is the problem. When watching live TV or TV Recordings via Kodi on the FireTV's I am getting equally spaced horizontal distortion lines in the video, especially during movement in scenes. Once a scene is no longer moving it goes away, but as soon as people/objects start moving again they come back, with the more movement the more distortion. If I pull up the recordings on the media server itself and watch them in NextPVR there isn't any distortion. So it doesn't seem to be an issue with the tuner/server/PVR recordings/codecs. It seems to be an issue with the NextPVR client on Kodi on a FireTV. Has anyone else experienced this?
I have used NPVR previously with my WinFast DTV Dongle Dual Filter. It worked fine. Channel scans took a while, but got there eventually.
I have now added to a new PC, and the channel scans just freeze the app completely. Sometimes it makes it through a couple of frequencies but innevitably freezes in the end leaving me with no channels.
My log is attached (taken at the point Windows reported the app as Not responding).
The DVB EPG in my area is reliable and I see no other reason to use it other than NextPVR only updates once a day. Most channels provide 1-2 day scheds but I have a couple that only do 12 hrs at a time.
Been using NPVR for about a year now, have had almost no issues once I set it up. Currently using Comcast and an HDHomeRun Prime.
As of late i've been losing my ability to tune specific channels. I think this has to do with Comcast switching over to H.264 starting October 26, but I am unsure what to do next.
Specifically, as of last night I am unable to tune AMC (you can understand my distress at not being able to record TWD!). This also happens with several other channels, MTV and FX come to mind as well.
My best description of the problem I can provide is this. When I try to tune or record a program from AMC, the tuner starts, the HDHomeRun lights up that a tuner is in use, and a file IS created. The file that is created is 0-32 KB in size and when the recording is supposed to finish, the tuner remains active and NPVR essentially shows the show is recording until I restart the computer. Restarting the recording service doesn't always work.
When I try to tune AMC, I get a black screen and it eventually gives me an error saying this tuner was require for a recording and gives me an option to exit. If I try to tune a channel after trying to tune AMC, I get "unable to communicate with recording service".
When I tune other channels (CBS for example), I have no issues. I can tune, I can record. No problems.
When I open AMC in HDHomeRun VIEW, I can tune it without issue.
I am attaching logs from this morning. Notably, I tried to record on AMC at ~7:55 am and once again at ~8:24 am. Looks like that corresponds with NRecord.log.1 and .log.2.
I have tried changing the channel in NPVR settings from MPEG-2 to H.264, it didn't change anything. I have also tried disabling windows firewall, no change either.
My CPU and harddrive have seen better days and it is time for me to schedule comskip to run later. I tried looking up my old files to no avail and going through the old GBPVR forums had the files removed.
More or less I would like to either run later and one at a time and if possible during if only one show it recording using parallelprocessing.bat of coarse.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
