1- Make the "pre-padding" available in one second increments. This way if we have a tuner that takes, say 6 seconds to change channels and start the actual recording, we could set 6" pre-padding so that our things are up and recording as the program starts avoiding cut starts. Why not one minute? This would prevent back-to-back recordings on the same device with the last minute lost in the first recording.
2- The ability to auto-delete old conflicts more than a day old. For those of us who do a lot of recording, like 100 hours per week, it becomes a wearisome chore to manually delete the resulting conflicts.

mvallevand, with Sub maybe making a API if I get a webcam served from playon UPnp. Will Universe or Network Tuner plugins act as a channel so a PIP of that stream will play?
I have a Hauppauge HDPVR 1 and I'm trying to get it to work with NextPVR with little success. First off, I'm using the latest HDPVR driver from Hauppage's website, 1_7_30059 and windows detects the device and doesn't report any issues with it. NextPVR detects the HDPVR and I can manually add in a channel using the Component Video input and Rear RCA for the audio, however when I try to select Live TV I get no video or audio and NextPVR is using 100% CPU. When LiveTV is active, I do see the lights on my HDPVR light up as if it's recording something, so it appears like it's working.
Also, no timeshifting file seems to be created when I start live tv. I've tried changing the recording/timeshifting directory to different ones in case of a permissions issue, but it doesn't make a difference. I even tried running NextPVR as an administrator with the same results.
I opened up the Debug info while Live TV is 'running' and I'm seeing the counters go up, eventhough I'm not seeing and hearing anything. I've tried every renderer and decoder I have installed (I also have the CoreAVC H.264 decoder, which may not be seen in the attached logs). I can press the stop button on my media remote and the stream will stop and return to the main menu, so NextPVR isn't completely unresponsive.
I've also tried adding it as an analog device with no luck either.
I'm using this capture device is to mirror my cable box's video output on a Kodi instance I have in another room, so I don't need to set up the IR blaster for channel changes, nor do I need any EPG set up for it.
Is there something that I'm missing? I'd like to use NextPVR because of its integration with Kodi so any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Wy wish is to return to the same place in the Recordings list, when coming back from Recordings, as you entered that show from.
When the kids want to watch a movie, I often go into Recordings and then scoll down the list and then into a Movie which looks promising. I use the MetaData in Recordings Screen to see what the Metadata tells me about the movie. If suitable, it gets watched; if not, I would like to be able to back up the menus to the Recordings list and just CONTINUE going down from the same place.
Currently when I go back from that Metadata Screen for the show, it always goes back to the TOP of the Recordings list.
So I have to scroll all the way down again to continue "Browsing" the list of shows. Surely this is non-intuitive?
I'd love to see i change to sticky at the point on the list where you went into the show.
I've read several threads regarding the same issue however I'm not able to resolve the problem of no channels being found during the scan.
As I understand it, as the scanning process is taking place I should see the channels pop up in the list that are found, encrypted or not. I am using WinTV v8 with the Hauppauge 955q tuner. My source is connected directly into the back of the tuner which connects to my mini PC. The signal, from what I thought, or presumed, was the digital QAM.
For some insight, the cable going into the tuner used to go into a digital set top box which converted the signal to HDMI. This cable goes into the tuner now, direct, as I mentioned earlier.
So, my signal could be analog I suppose, however I have tried every option in my device list, ie Analog Video Capture, ATSC ATSC Tuner, and the QAM ASTC Tuner.
I know it was mentioned that analog signals need the SoftPVR software but since I seen the analog vid cap tuner option in my device list I have not installed it.
If I try and use the WinTV8 software as well, and choose any of the provided options, the scan comes up blank.
I've been having hardware problems that I hope are now resolved with a working HdHomerun Extend.
The new tuner appears in the device list but will not find channels when scanned. Firewalls are off and the HDView app is fine. I though maybe there was a conflict with some of the old HDHomeRun devices that are no longer anywhere in the system. I deleted all the devices and restarted NPVR. They all came back! Ideas? Comments?
