I am using a Hauppauge 9500. I had it working with over the air connection, and decided to connect cable to it. I connected FIOS(Now Frontier... YUCK) to it and did a scan. It picked up clear channels and identified quite a few. When I try to view LIVE tv I receive "unable to find available capture device". I ran FilterCheck.exe and am attaching the FilterCheck.log. Any assistance would be GREAT.
Just in the last few weeks, NPVR will occasionally crash while watching a recorded show. This only happens on perhaps 1 out of 30 recordings. The last time it happened, it would crash again at exactly the same spot in the timeline. I had to skip past that part of the show manually to watch the rest of the show. I've attached the logs, plus I found a couple of errors in the application event log at the time of each crash.
On a perhaps related (or not!) theme, I'm also getting some recordings that only display a black screen when we try to watch them. However, they play perfectly via Media Player Classic. This is on perhaps 1 recording out of every 30. All shows are recorded from an HDHomeRun Prime.
And then again after I restarted NPVR and jumped back to where the recording had stopped playing. It crashed again at exactly the same place in the recording:
I have been told that entering a letter, say "v" will take me to "Vikings" then entering another letter ..... say "d" will take me to "Dead Like Me".
These actions fail (for me anyway).
Navigation via the mouse and up / down arrows work
Is this a "feature" or has navigation via letters not been implemented????
I wonder if it was possible to change the 10ft wide "Video" Screen (see below)
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
to the same format as the "Search" Screen (see below) and adding the search functionality...
The Left Panel for the "movie / series " as is and the Right Panel for Episodes not date.
Something like the Western Digital Live TV Player or Windows Explorer
Hi, I'm new here, but been using NextPVR for year or more and love it. Recently, for some odd reason, my scheduled recordings weren't showing up. Then I noticed the TV guide is also gone (I see my channel line up, but no programs). I'm using Schedules Direct and have an active subscription. I don't know what's going on, any ideas?
I'd appreciate the help
I noticed today that if I press ctrl-k on the client machine while watching LiveTV, I get the "Recording..." message but no recording file is created. Going further, I cannot schedule anything to be recorded from the client. Usually the TV Guide entry changes to red when it is to be recorded but now nothing happens. Everything works just fine on the server.
Logs are attached and the relevant section is at the beginning of NRecord.log.
When I enable the closed captions in kodi (enable subtitles), the closed captioning works great. However, the text is center-justified. It is extremely difficult to read when center justified because the lines grow outward from the center as it is fed to the screen--it is very annoying and difficult to read.
How can we force the text to be left-justified like conventional TVs and set-top boxes do?
I recently installed (fist install) nextPVR on a vista machine I have. The install completed ok. I was able to go through and get all the ATSC stations configured. However when trying to watch live TV I got the message "Unexpected socket exception calling StartStream(): System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8968".
From what I read in the Forums there should be a windows backend service called 'NPVR' that handles the ability to watch live tv. So I went to look for the service, there was no service installed. I verified this using the NPVRServiceControl app. It also stated that the service was not installed.
Is there any way for me to install just the service without having to reinstall nextpvr? I also dont want to lose all the work I have done from the tuner config side.
This one has me wondering how can something work when it does not have anything to work with? I have two Silicone Dust HD Homerun connect units. So I should have four tuners. After a scan for channels in NextPVR, I come up with no sources for one of the PBS channels. This can be seen from the enclosed screen shot by the arrow. Channel shows up in the channel list. Tower is only 8 miles away so that is not the problem. If I go to the guide and attempt to set this channel (21.1) to record, I get an error message "No tuner is available to record the requested show." No tuners are in use at this time. But, if I want to watch the channel it plays without any problem. How can it play when there is not tuner or source for it???
Rescans don't fix the problem.
Ideas?
I've set up Npvr and Kodi in my new home, and I've tried for days to get Npvr to write the files to my Freenas Server. I've got the server set up, and I can manually write files, so the Windows 10 machine has permission to write, in my experience, this is the test for making sure things are working. However, I cannot seem to get Npvr to write files to it. I'm enjoying the setup overall, except that I only have 32G free on my SSD, and it fills up quick and starts to fail.
Not sure what background info would help....so here it is.
