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...

Thank you again for all your had work

Hello everyone,

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?

Thanks.

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:

Hi,

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.

thanks,

dan

Hey guys. On Nov 1st, my recordings are failing with Device failed to start.

I'm uploading my logs to see if you guys have any ideal why after seamless recording they just fail now.

I also notice, when adding a recording or clicking on something in the guide there is a long pause too.

I attempted a live recording for these logs and 2 quick records for the sake of these logs, all which failed. Note, after I clicked quick record it took 30 seconds to get by to NPVR.

I also tried to open live TV via VLC and stream" http://192.168.0.9:8866/live?channel=19.1

Thanks, Paul

Attached are the logs for the missing recording scheduled 11-03-2016 at 9PM. Usual fanart error, not sure why but it did not record. Also seem to put the system in a loop on refreshing scheduling recordings. See Nrecord.log it is very large.

Here is where the error starts:
2016-11-03 20:59:10.395 [ERROR][51] Unexpected error in FanArtTVHelper: System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

2016-11-03 21:02:00.266 [DEBUG][9] StopStream(1)

The later shows did record, but not sure what the issue is with this show. Happened last week on the same show.

If control K while watching Live TV starts the recording of the show... what command stops the recording if you change your mind? I thought CTRL S but all that does is stop the LIVE TV mode while the recording continues to trundle along.

I'm not getting SD EPG data since upgrading, error below.
I've seen others had issues since upgrading but not seen this specific error.
Should I go down the uninstall/install/upgrade path that has been suggested or does this seem like something else?
All checks against SD site seem OK to me.
