Recently, Iâve started having problems with X-NEWA/Kodi playing some of my recordings. (Via SMB shares from path substitutionârecorded with HDHR Prime) When it starts playing these recordings, the display will show âWorkingâ for a bit, then it will start to play, automatically pause the playback, and the display shows âBuffering⦠48%, 00:01 â 00:02â. (The percentage and times will vary somewhat from recording to recording.) If I then press âPlayâ, it will begin playing, but the file duration just shows the length played (and increases second by second as the playing continues).
In the attached log file, I'm seeing:
Code:

This "Consider increasing the value for the 'analyzeduration' and 'probesize' options" message is the same that you were asking about in the reference post. So I'm wondering if you found a way to increase this value?
Interesting side-effect: I use .edl files genereated by comskip. When the playback gets to the beginning of a skip point, it appears to hang. At first, I would press the stop button and give up trying to play that file via Kodi. Then one time, I was busy doing something else, and didn't hit the stop button quickly. And after an amount of time (approximately?) equal to the length of the skip point, it would begin playing again. So it is sort of "muting" the commercial, although the video display remains the last frame from before the commercial and there is no visual indication that it is still doing something. Very strange! But, now I know how to work-around the problem and play the entire file via Kodi.
After playing with the excellent iOS App, I am looking at options for allow access to my server when outside of the local network.
From a security and paranoia standpoint, I'm very reluctant to simply use port forwarding to open port 8866 to the outside world as I do not believe there is any encryption of passwords or data, prevention of brute forcing passwords etc. (as Sub has previously mentioned, the web server is not hardened or designed for access outside of the local LAN).
I'm currently looking at the option of installing an OpenVPN server on my NPVR box and using the iOS client to establish a secure VPN connection before launching the NextPVR App.
Has anyone else tried a similar configuration? If not, I'd be more than happy to put some documentation together.
I have purchased the iOS app and it's looking very good! I do however have an issue with my iPad and video orientation.
If I start the playback of a recording in landscape mode, all is well and the video fills the screen correctly. If I either rotate or start in portrait mode then rotate to landscape mode, the video is very small and fills only the lower left quadrant of the screen.
Is this a known issue or would you like some further information or example recordings (UK OTA Freeview .ts streams)
having hard time getting npvr to switch to analog audio...
most of my channels are spdif, but one is analog, for viewing my stb dvr stuff...
if i manually put it in analog mode, it switches properly to spdif when i choose a spdif channel.. But after it is in spdif mode, it won't switch back to analog mode when i select the analog channel..
in logs it says it is setup for analog but it never changes the filter settings...
[its at end of log where i try both types]
anything else that you need?
am using latest hdpvr1212 drivers..[hdpvr_1.7.1.30059]
Really excited to see this app under development. I have been trying to find the best way to get live tv and recordings to the living room as I propose cutting the cord. Since NextPVR itself seems to be the best featured client for NextPVR (the only one with conflict resolution and resource information) that is my preference, but my wife is not a big fan of Windows so...
Anyway, here's a few things I noticed. The first being a bit of a big one. As I was installing I hit enter too soon and failed to enter the IP address the second time it is asked for. This left me with the app trying to connect, but it would never really fail. Even after uninstalling and reinstalling it kept trying to connect to the wrong IP and even pressing 000 failed to get me back to settings. Ultimately I had to reset my TV and start fresh. So maybe some kind of timed failure that takes you back to the settings screen?
Secondly, I could pause live TV, but could not move forward at all. No way to skip commercials.
Lastly, if I started a show, then completely stopped, I was unable to 'resume'. It would just start over.
You may already be aware of these issues, but wanted to pass on my experience so far. Everything else I tested seemed to work great, but I haven't really had a lot of time to put it through the app through it's paces yet! Anxious to test it out more this weekend!
WMC has become the suck, Me thinks MS is trying to encourage users to use Ubuntu
Anyway, I'm still using Win 7 and have fought off the Win 10 assault.
Was refered to Kodi and NextPVR on AR15.com. Did the install dance, even Soft PVR and WinTV8 (which does show channels but will only play the channel the DISH receiver is tuned to at the time)
NextPVR shows all aspects on my Hauppauge 2250. After scan complete, no channels are shown no matter whether analog, ATSC or QAM aspect is selected.
I select Categories from the menu at the top of TV Listings. I select a category like Movies or Series but no matter what I pick I get "No results found".
Any ideas what could be causing this?
P.S. I am seeing a full schedule in the program guide.
