I've been using NextPVR for about 6 months and I love it, so thanks!
I am using Win 10 Pro 64 Bit on an older Dell. This machine has an AMD Radeon 5450 video card and I have the latest available drivers installed. While the machine doesn't seem like much, it is more than powerful enough for DVD and Blu-Ray playback which is all I need. After a few weeks of using NextPVR, I switched to Kodi as a frontend, but the skin I like has become a bit broken by the latest releases so wanted to go to NextPVR on its own.
From day 1 that I installed NextPVR I had an option in Video Decoder to select an AMD hardware option, so I never sought out any other decoders. Sadly, I can't tell you exactly what the option's "name" actually was, because I never thought to make a note of it. That option has now disappeared and of course I receive the decoder missing screen. Since Kodi uses its own stuff I have no problems there.
I uninstalled and re-installed NextPVR, most recently to update to 3.7.7, and also the AMD drivers, but the option refuses to come back.
The decoding was awesome with this option, and I'd love to have it come back instead of installing some other codecs (which of course I will do if necessary).
I've attached logs; I don't know if they are preserved after a reinstall, but here they are,
This is a FYI for anyone using Alan Birtles' excellent XMLTVGUI for EPG downloads. You will know by now that it no longer works due to changes at the Radio Times. I emailed Alan to see if he planned to update it (the last version update was in 2011) and he says he hasn't time to do so.
Shows don't stop at the end of playback...they just sit on last frame till i stop it manually...
I don't have it asking to 'delete afterwards' enabled.. just normal stopping..
the file ended at 2016-06-29 05:36:40.012 but did nothing, and no entries till i stopped it at 2016-06-29 05:38:49.026
it happens on all recordings...server and client.
oh and the newa problem still persists on other machines in my local lan..[modern/newa] no screens work, just config..
I'm not getting a guide grid in modern newa on local server machine...all other screens show normally..[i think]
also, no screens work on any other machine on local net...no guide, no recordings, no index[main] page...all they show is a header with no info below...
which browsers are know to be working? [with version]
are there any special considerations needed for firewall/security for non-server machines?
seems like some .net remoting issue...
I just recently setup nextPVR (with the help of many in this forum and LOVE it). One of the features I like is the web server so I can schedule recordings from my phone.
Because I like this feature so much, I set it up for out of home access. I have a static IP on my windows machine, forwarded port 8866 to my windows PC,..etc...etc...
Everything works. I get to the login page from outside my network, but, for some unknown reason, it will NOT accept my username and password. When I am on my LAN, it never asks for a username or password, but, from out of my house, it wont let me pass the login.
Any time I select Client on the settings screens, I'm getting an unhandled exception error:
