I have a Hauppauge HVR-2550, which has two tuners. Setting up the device recognized both tuners, but I found that when watching live TV, when a scheduled record starts, I get a message telling me to select LiveTV xor the scheduled record.
If LiveTV is using one tuner, shouldn't a scheduled record use the other tuner?

Sorry to bring up an old issue, but this is the first time I have tried this and I seem to be hitting the wall. I know I am doing something wrong because others have had success with this, but I haven't discovered the Rosetta Stone to allow me to record to a network drive.

After reviewing previous threads on this topic, here's what I have tried so far...

1.The target folder on the network drive (Windows file system-ntfs) is shared with full control to everyone.

2. I am using UNC path names. Both the npvr PC and network drive PC are W10, on the same Public network. The network drive/folder is read/write accessible via Windows File Explorer from any PC on the network.

When I try to record, I get this message in the error nrecord.log:
2016-07-27 13:03:44.896 [DEBUG][9] DefaultDirectoryChoice: first
2016-07-27 13:03:44.900 [DEBUG][9] Preferred filename is 'The.Dr..Oz.Show.S07E181.Biggest.Health.Improvements.to.Your.Home.for.Under.10.Bucks'

at System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(String path)
at NShared.RecordingService.GetTargetName(ScheduledRecording scheduledRecording)
at NShared.RecordingService.WorkerThread()

3. If I change the NPVR service logon account to use my account (admin privledges) instead of Local System, the recording service refuses to start because of "error 1069" - logon failure.


Where am I going wrong? I must be missing something, help!

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm in the process of planning my upgrade to Win10 and I am desperately trying to avoidn having to manually export the WMC schedules I created over the years and manually recreate them into NPVR. I looked, but can't find any instructions anywhere.

I am hoping there is a way to migrate the schedules (season recordings, at least, history of recorded shows would be fantastic) to NPVR.

thanks in advance!

Hi,
I have started using Schedule Direct and really like it, and how easy it integrates with NextPVR.
One this I miss is the ability to change the feed to include season / episode number in the description. It makes it much easier to see if I have seen it or not via Kodi.
Is there a way to either change the feed to include this or some Post processing that I can do to add this / other info?

Thanks Phil

Hello,

I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and have been trying to use NextPVR. The issues I'm having is the Live TV and recording are choppy, complete black screen or the program crashes with a Runtime C++ R6106 error. I'm at a lost at what to try

My specs are as follows
TV tuner: Hauppauge 2255
Processor: AMD Quad core 4GZ
Ram 16GB
Windows 64bit

I've attached the logs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just upgraded to Windows 10 and having a few issues.

As a test, I sent in and selected Quick Record on a show to test recording. The show turned red in the program guide, but I noticed the "n" logo in the task bar did not turn red like it did previously. Also, the show did not show up as "Recording" in the Recordings list. Then, I went to cancel the recording and got an error message: Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8968.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I upgraded to Windows 10, everything with NPVR appears to work fine on the desktop. However, I have 2 A-110's which are both not connecting. When it boots, I see my network share, select it, but then get "Invalid username or password".

It's been years since I last went through this setup. I seem to recall I had to setup a Guest account in Win7? Is that still the case? In any case, I could use some direction from someone who's more familiar with the setup process. Thanks!

Hi - is there anyway of getting the Nextpvr interface url to be configurable like the port number? Something like http://host:8866/npvr/modern

I'd like to set up an Nginx reverse proxy to access via my domain if possible so I can access the service via something like http://www.domain.com/npvr

Thanks

I'm running NextPVR 3.6.6 on Windows 10 and have been doing so successfully for some time.
I use a SiliconDust HDHomerun tuner (original).

Sometime between July 11 and July 24 NextPVR stopped decoding streams from my HDHomerun correctly.
I can use the HDHomerun live viewer to view a channel correctly but now when I try NextPVR Live the video and audio are scrambled.

I say July 11 and July 24 because a show recorded on July 11 plays fine but the next episode recorded on July 24 does not. NextPVR displays a scrambled video on the July 24 video and the size of the .ts file is about one fifth the size of one recorded for the same show on July 11.

I have not tinkered with any of the settings since I reinstalled with Windows 10 (February) and it had been workng fine.
I have not installed any new a/v apps or other multimedia software recently.

How do I begin to track down what has gone wrong here?

I have Nextpvr running quite happily with an older dual core AMD HTPC build on windows 7.
I have both an HDHomerun Prime with cablecard on Comcast, and an HDHomerun Extend, which both are working fine with Nextpvr.

If I upgrade to Windows 10 and lose WMC, will I end up with crippled HDHomerun Prime cablecard usage?
Does DRM get hosed when losing WMC or just codecs?
I dont want to lose the ability to record and view the HD channels (non premium) on Comcast if I upgrade.

I anticipate eventually rebuilding the HTPC in the next couple years, but right now its running fine.

Should I stay put on Win7 and skip the free upgrade?
