When I try to watch Live Tv I get a blank screen. I've read through the forums and the most common reason relates MPEG 2 Decoder. It would appear I have decoders that should work, or that have worked for others.
Logs are attached.
TV Tuner is pinnacle PCTV 80e, which next pvr had no problem discovering during set-up.
I am trying to set up a new NMT in a working NPVR environment. I get as far as the NMT booting up correctly to the "Start" menu, I navigate over to the right-most icon, select it, select NPVR, and then the screen just goes black. The NPVR menu never appears.
Here's the output from NMT Syntax Check

I have 2 Hauppage dual tuner cards, with copies for MCE (which is dead and buried) and IPTV (which I don't use), gives me 9 tuners. Only 4 have channels.
Any chance to have an option to "Only show active devices in status window with channels"? So when I click on it, I don't see 9 tuners.
I've seen times where the recording service "stops" and the show lists as having a full 60 minutes according to the guide information, but you can't see the actual real size/duration. I actually saw 30 seconds of the show before it failed, seeing that information in the view of the recording would mean I'd just delete it. On the old PVR, it showed the file size (and you could somewhat get used to the MB used for an hour and so forth), so if you saw 0 beside it, you know there wasn't anything there, or something so short it wasn't all there.
I've also had a station go off the air for a few minutes (not my fault) and the recording just "sat dormant for it to come back", meaning we lost like 15 minutes in the middle of the show. Again, that information would tell us that something went wrong, even though the recording didn't complain there wasn't any signal in the show's duration. So we watched and then it jumped like 15 minutes into the program and had no clue what went wrong, had to go back to Explorer and right click on the TS for it to see how much time was in it, wasn't 60 mins.
Set the software: Start FullScreen & Right Mouse as Back.
Try to get to the settings, I dare you! Apparently, you can't. Well, you can:
Open the config file up (requires mouse and keyboard, thankfully my Air Mouse has both), find StartFullScreen and set it to False, save, re-run, right click on the top left corner of the menu bar, Settings, but moving the mouse down causes it to disappear, watch the hover line go down to settings, click you should be there.
To avoid all this, can we PLEASE get "Settings" added to the menu? In case you're wondering, I just went through this... Apparently the mouse vanishes when it goes over the Menu of the software (below the Menu bar only visible out of Full Screen mode).
Anything else I need to setup/configure? Am I able to feed the stream in m3u8 format to an external websever if there are 200+ users wanting to watch the channel? Thx
Hello, once I get NextPRV setup with my ATSC kworld stick, can this program or an addon allow me to get access to it from over the internet? maybe even stream it in an m3u8 format to a webserver for me to access? Thank you
This is a relatively new problem: when I shut down a video or recorded program on the client NPVR will occasionally hang. The only way I can get out of a black screen is to click repeatedly on that screen with the mouse. Then I get a message that NPVR is not responding and do I want to quit. It will then do so and I'm returned to a Win7 opening screen. NPVR will then open just fine and work fine for a few times and then repeat the who hanging problem again. Any ideas on what's causing this. I enclosing the client log files, although 7 zip says they're still in use even though I've shut NPVR down.
Now, is there a way to add closed captions to the (mp4) ts ffmpeg transcoded file, the same way Handbrake does when adding “--subtitle 1” to the command line arguments?
I have been using NPVR for some years now and thought I was quite familiar with it, until the last few weeks.
I have been recording a long running series 'Formula 1' which has this season moved to UK Channel 4.
When I set it up to record on this channel I could not find any appropriate thumbnail when I searched for one using the 'Find More/Listings/TVDB' in the TV listings plugin, so I added a logo to the 'Shows' folder.
This is no problem the logo appears with Pending programs until every time a recording event occurs for this series, then it saves a 'Formula 1.fanart.jpg' picture file and a 'Formula 1-catalog.xml' file to the 'Shows' folder. If I delete them they just reappear next time!
I have searched everywhere to try to find the instruction that is causing this to happen and remove it, but I just cannot find it.
Can you help me with this please as I am finding it frustrating, I do not really want to completely uninstall NPVR and remove all traces to have to reinstall and set it all up from scratch to resolve this issue..
Once I setup NextPVR do I just access the channels like:
