I have NextPvr running very well but need to move to a newer machine - both machines are windows 10. What files etc do I need to copy. I want everything the same on the new machine as the old machine, including my recording, setting etc.

Last week WMC stopped working, so I moved from WMC to NextPVR (Windows
7, Ceton card with Comcast cablecard).

I'm having some issues with the database that I think are related to
each other. I don't know if these issues are features/bugs in NextPVR
or if they're occurring because I screwed up the database by inserting
manual recordings through SQLite. If it's the latter, please tell me
the best way to straighten things out. The previous thread was:
http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...-recording

• The "Update" button doesn't seem to work for me at all. If
  I try to use it on a series, the "Recording Type" comes up as "Record
  Once," even though it's a series. If I try to use it on a manual
  recording, whether I've inserted it through the GUI or through INSERT,
  then I get an System.IndexOutOfRangeException when I click on
  "Update", as in the above thread. Is this a bug in NextPVR, or is
  this happening because of some issue in npvr.db3?
  
  
• I've manually scheduled a program "BBC-Midnite-4am", which records
  BBC World News from midnight to 4 am. (I had added this recording
  through sqlite3.) It records fine into a file called
  BBC-Midnite-4am_20160520_00000400.ts. But then it records the same
  channel a second time, from 3:45am-4am, into a file called
  BBC-Midnite-4am_20160520_00000400-0.ts. This happens every night. So
  there are two recordings of the same thing from 3:45-4.
  
  I looked at the NRecord.log file (attached), and it looks like NRecord
  goes nuts around 3:40 am, rescheduling recordings, and rolling over to
  a new log file. It also gets sporadic "database locked" errors, which
  may be a NextPVR bug.
  
  
• By the time I have everything set up, I'm going to have 150-200
  recurring recordings set up, about half of them manual and half
  series, and I'm going to need to set priorities. A typical scenario
  is that I want to record the BBC World News from 8-9pm, but only if
  there's a free tuner, which means the BBC recording has to have a
  lower priority than the series recordings. It would be quick and
  convenient for me to set priorities by using sqlite3 to UPDATE the
  "priority" field in each of the records in the RECURRING_RECORDING
  table (and making sure that all priorities are unique). Would that
  work? This would be easiest, since I need to set the priority of
  each new manual recording that I add, even if it's through the GUI.
  
  The only other way I know about is:
  
  1. Edit recurring-backup.xml to create
     new-recurring.xml. However, there's no "priority" field in the
     XML. But there is an "oid" field. Can I just set that?
     
     
  2. Move the old npvr.db3 to a safe location, in case it's needed
     again. This wipes out all existing recordings in NextPVR.
     
     
  3. Kill and restart NextPVR, so that hopefully it will create an
     empty npvr.db3.
     
     
  4. Start "NextPVR.exe -import new-recurring.xml".
  
  That's a complicated procedure, especially if all I want to do is to
  change one priority. Is that the "official" way to change priorities,
  since I can't find a way in the GUI?

DirectTV and I believe Myth have a wonderful feature, you can continue watching a show when you stop in the middle and move to another room. This happens a lot in our house. We will start in the Den while we eat dinner and then move to the bedroom. Right now we have to start all over again and try to find our stopping point from downstairs. Is this possible to accomplish?

Why is it that when I view Live TV in NPVR it is crystal clear. But when it records it is all messed up audio cuts in and out and images pixelate like crazy. Recordings are not even viewable.

I use kodi with chrome launcher to view my time warner cable stations, I have created direct url links to various channels and network etc. What I would like to know is there a way to use these direct links in next pvr to add an epg via xmltv file?

here is an example of the links I use

I enabled the NextPVR client in Kodi, I put the pin in Kodi. Just keeps saying connection lost.

Windows firewall disabled. No AV installed. Address in Kodi is local host. (127.0.0.1) NextPVR is running on same machine. No option I see to change IP.

Anybody have any ideas?

Hello

I'm using Windows Server 2012. After installing BDA Files my sundtek USB DVB-C Receiver ist working fine with the DVBClient Software.

I would love to use nextPVR 3.6.6 with kodi but after successfully installation and execution, when i start to search channels this message appears:
Unable to start device: DVB-C tuning failed, then i only can click ok.

I tried to find a solution in all the other threads...nothing :confused:

Firewall Port 8866 is open
Connection to http://127.0.0.1:8866/ works fine

Any ideas, what could be the problem?

I would appreciate any advise how to fix.

Thank you very much.

PS: maybe to save time -> the only ERROR i have found in the log files is:

2016-05-17 20:57:56.814 [ERROR][1] Failed to create IDVBCLocator

Hi
When I scan on device setup, Channel 14 (More 4) is missing. Is there any manual method of getting it back. It was there before I did a rescan.
Thanks for your help.

Please see config screen shots and let me know why I can't get TV to work in Next PVR (I tried all the decoders): [ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND][ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND][ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND][ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND][ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

i would love it if the "what's new" limit had a higher limit...99 just isn't enough..
if i manually edt the config and give a higher number, it works fine...even on client...but i can no longer get into config as it errors out..
basically i just want the program to not balk on anything over 99, i understand leaving limit at 99 in the gui, and requiring users to manually adjust if they want anything more...
sound reasonable?
there are a couple of reasons i want/need this and it doesn't seem to slow anything down even set at over a year...
Thanks
