New to NextPVR; installed on Win10 machine (standalone).
Clicking on the timeline of a recording or using the skip or pause buttons results in a black screen that is frozen (no video or audio). ESC or right-click gets back to Menu screen. Recording can not be Resumed but only restarted from beginning.
New to the forum and NextPVR. I'm having a strange issue with switching channels that I can't seem to solve, and I can't find any info about it on the NPVR or Kodi forums. Detailed description below, and NPVR log attached.
Issue: When already watching live TV and switching to another channel by directly entering a channel number, it fails with message "Next PVR PVR Client 'Tuner No Longer Available'"
Message can only be cleared by restarting MrMC/Kodi
Frontend Setup: Amazon Fire TV v2
MrMC 2.5.0 (have also tried Kodi 16.1 and Kodi 17.0a3)
Wired ethernet connection
Steps to Reproduce:
Start MrMC or Kodi
Start viewing a channel by selecting it in the channel list or EPG
Switch to another channel by directly entering a channel number (eg, 1-0-1-Enter)
[INDENT]
Channel appears to switch and start buffering, but channel never starts playing
On NPVR backend, can see the tuner switching channel and creating new live TV buffer file
MrMC/Kodi displays 'Tuner No Longer Available' message
Press Stop in MrMC/Kodi and it returns to previous screen (either channel list or EPG), but tuner message remains
On NPVR backend, tuner is still locked to the selected channel and filling the buffer file (appears to not receive the Stop command from MrMC/Kodi)
Need to restart the recording service to release the tuner
Need to manually delete the buffer files[/INDENT]
Additional Info: Issue occurs using either MrMC or Kodi on the Fire TV
Switching channel by pressing Channel Up or Channel Down -- works as expected
Switching channel by going back to the EPG or channel list and selecting new channel -- works as expected
Issue does NOT occur using Kodi on Mac or Windows
I've tested a couple other PVR backends (MediaPortal, DVBViewer) and the issue does not occur. I'm really at a loss on how to solve this issue, and NPVR is otherwise my preferred backend. Any help is appreciated!
After rescanning for available channels I'm spending half an hour deselecting all the new channels that I don't want to add.
It would be a lot more user friendly if the new channels were indicated by a mark in an additional column (or by highlighting the row) and then you could quickly scroll through the list of channels and click the checkbox of the new channels that you want to include.

Title says it all, it would be really nice to be able to see a preview of the channel from the results window after scanning.
This would make it a lot easier deciding to include or exclude the channel.
Apart from scanning regularly for channel changes to I also need to update the frequency list for my two satellites manually? how?
How can I check it's not my tuner? I have a Cine S2 dual tuner. My dish is solid, shouldnt be the problem.
Edit: after a reboot and updating the transponders ini I have new channels agin
I don't know if this is just a problem with my phone or with the 6s Plus itself, but it keeps crashing as soon as I open the app. Help please? I was looking forward to using this app on my phone to set recordings and stuff...
My EPG has not been updating on its own, and often appears incomplete. Attempts to update the guide manually (even after emptying it first) cause the program to stop responding toward the end of the process and display the Windows dialogue which closes the application.
I am running the latest Windows 10 build.
I've attached my logs to shed some light on the situation.
As a sidenote: NextPVR is fantastic. It is by far the easiest back-end to configure. I purchased the iOS app today and it is great (I've got my fingers crossed for an AppleTV version ;D )
After years of happily using GBPVR I installed NVPR in a desperate attempt to capture the Rio Olympics. The issue that I had with GBPVR seems to be happening with NPVR and that is the recordings stop before they are are supposed to. No pattern to how long they last - a few minutes to several hours. I have an HDHomerun with two tuners on which I have upgraded the software/firmware to the latest.
Any ideas on what is causing this? I am attaching zip files for the NPVR log, NRecord log and ndigitalhost-20log.
