Upgraded last night and so far (mostly) so good. Only hiccup is the new web admin (which looks great!) is the guide shows no data or channels. If I use the classic it has all my channels and guide data, not in the new one though. New one shows recent recordings, available, etc. But no guide data and also on the home screen it shows nothing under available disk space or upcoming recordings.

Now, Recordings and Scheduler all seem to work fine.

I recently renewed my Schedules Direct subscription, but guide data is ok so I don't think that is related.

I've "emptied" and "updated" (don't remember the exact term) the guide data in the settings, rebooted and none of it seemed to help. I schedule almost exclusively through the web admin.

Logs are zipped and attached!

I appreciate the help or assistance anyone can provide!
Thank you!

I have installed 3.7.7 on my client PC that uses a server running 3.6.6. All seems well except that the client shows no entries on the Recurring Recording screen as it does on the server. In fact, all other client Recording screens(Ready, What's New, Pending and Conflicts) show correct information that matches the server perfectly.

Is this a problem or am I not allowed to mix client/server versions?

Thanks.

The Modern Web Interface is not displaying any information in TV Guide, just blank screen with banner at top. NextPVR, Now, Recordings, Scheduler menus all displaying correctly. Classic Interface displays programs in TV Guide. I use Schedules Direct for EPG.

From the 3.7.7 changelog:

>clicking poster artwork will do an artwork search, giving you the option to choose another match. This should help when the auto artwork got the wrong images.

Should this work from the recordings screen? I've clicked on the pictures there and in the web UI, but nothing happens. The wife likes to watch the TV show "Reign". The artwork that got automagically selected is titled "Reign of the Dinosaurs".

Maybe I'm just doing it wrong...

Hi
Is there is a way to preview when fast forwarding or rewinding recorded videos, ie when moving along the progress bar to fast forward, preview of video show in small window.

Hi Sub
Would it be possible to have a toggle on off of the On Screen Navigation that appeared in the last version of NPVR.
We always use a remote for viewing - and the buttons look untidy, even for only 5 seconds that they show.
A true / false setting in config would be ideal.

Thanks

To see it in action: Go to Recordings screen, scroll down to a show that is not at the top of the list. Click once to see the episodes, info, etc. Click Back. It takes you to all the way back to the top of the Recordings list, instead of going to where you previously were in the list. Not good for the WAF when she's scrolling through to see what she wants to watch next.

Can this be configured with a setting somewhere or is it hard coded?

I am becoming so annoyed already. I really hope someone can help me out.

Here is EXACTLY what happened:

For the past 36 hours, my Happauge 1212 has been working fantastic. Scheduled recordings, watching TV,..etc…etc…. flawless

So, about an hour ago, I was messing around with a gold game on my PC (Just got a new video card a week ago, so, I have been trying some games here and there). I changed the resolution in my game, and, all of the sudden, my PC locked up solid. High pitched squeal…I probably changed it to a resolution that the game didn’t support…..I couldn’t exit out of anything, couldn’t CTRL-ALT-DEL……couldn’t minimize anything…………………just a black screen and a high pitched squeal………..no big deal…..I held in the power button on my PC.

So, windows booted back up..back in business as usual….

Now, the next scheduled recording kicks in, and, I noticed the device BLUE trim lights up..I think, “cool…..”…I found it odd because that wasn’t working prior to the PC freezing…

But, now, if the device has to change channels a few times (like, 2 or 3 recordings), it stops recording saying that there is no device connected…. As a matter of fact, it does this whether it is a scheduled recording, or, if I change the channel more than 2 or 3 times….it’s as if I get 2 or 3 channel changes, then it fails.

If I power off the Happauge 1212 and power it back on, I’m back in business again. Or, I can unplug the USB and plug it back in. Either one will work. But, I didn’t have to do this before….

This is so frustrating because I had things running perfectly…. Can that blue illuminating light be drawing too much power? I am confused now 

UPDATE: What I did was uninstall all of the software that came with the unit (I forgot this was still installed. IR blaster software, Scheduler,….etc….etc….) and powered the PC down completely. Unplugged the Happauge and powered it off as well. Powered the PC back up. Powered the Happauge, and plugged it back in.
So far (fingers crossed knock on wood) it has been working for 3 consecutive scheduled recordings.

I still want to leave this post here just in case anyone may have experienced this before. Hoping someone can give me some tips if they have

And, thanks again for always being so helpful.

Hey all...I just found the forum, which is great! Cause I have a question before I plunge almost $2000 into a NAS.

WD has this new box coming out that's billed to be the perfect fit with Plex and can transcode up to 4 different lines at once. I love it. I'm wanting to get the 32tb version and split it off into a RAID 10 and have 16tb for recording and my movies. WAAAAYYY more than enough room. I currently use a i5 PC with a RAID 10 and 6tb of room. I have around 2tb usually to play with as long as I delete shows as the season finishes.

Here's the WD NAS
http://store.wdc.com/store/wdus/en_US/Di...oud_PR4100

Now...I know some times you can and sometimes you can't install these PVRs or other apps/programs onto these boxes. Is this possible? I believe I saw some where people were using the tiny 1 and 2tb WD Clouds with NextPVR but I cant find that info.

Basically I want to do this.... Remove the PC from the equation. I don't like having it run 24/7 and the WOSB app stopped working all the time when I upgraded to Windows 10. the WD NAS is meant to stay on all the time.....so I want to put Plex and NextPVR in it and have it there,,,at all times for me to access. I have the HDHomeRunPrime that brings my TV into the network so that'd be the source going into the NextPVR.

What's the verdict? Possible? Not possible? Need to wait and see? I think they are about to start selling this and it's not out. Any links out there to video or documentation on how I can access the DVR and add or remove programs if this is possible? Anything!

I appreciate it guys! I've been using this program for a year and it's wonderful! I was planning on buying the HDHomeRun guys DVR but at that price and the way it doesnt work...nope.

Thanks again! Hoping I posted in the correct location....if not...move me around, toss me over

- added playback keyboard controls that don't require Ctrl key for common activities. ie, spacebar to toggle pause, F to fastforward, R to rewind, right-arrow to skip forward, left-arrow to skip back. Will look to extend this to other keys if users recommend further actions they'd like to access with single key.
