:confused:I searched the forum but I cannot find anything to show me how to manually add a FM station. Please help me understand what values I need, where do I input the values. Thanks in advance.

Suggestions:
1. Hot key to enable captions without going through the menu
2. Settings for caption position. Now it seems to default to the middle of the screen. Would be nice to put captions at the bottom.
3. Settings for font type and size. I'm running on a projector and font needs to be smaller.

I have my antenna running to my server with an Hauppauge 2255 tv tuner. On the server itself the video is great, it's only very slightly choppy. On my Raspberry pi 1 with openelec, kodi and NextPVR client addon the video is very choppy and pixelated sometimes.

I noticed NextPVR backend will sometimes say "WARNING: The DirectX runtime is not available on this machine. Software rendering instead." in red on the settings page. Other times it's not there. I'm currently running DirectX11 on Win7.

My decoders are Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder.

What could be causing this?
How can I fix it?

Hi,

What's the difference between:

<LanguagePreference1>
and
<LanguagePreference2>

controls in config.xml?

Should they be set the same or if set differently, what is the affect?

I have looked for the last few days at several solutions to the problem I am experiencing. I have tried several different codecs including SAF6 but to no avail.

What is happening is I do not receive any audio and just a blank screen. This happens just after I click on a program in the guide. I have added to a thread that was started a while ago, which does show that I have been digging around the forum, and the wiki as well.

I was asked to try a recording then play it back. See if the file exists and that it was not a 0 byte file. No file exists when the recording is finished so obviously there is no size to it. It did create a folder to store the fanart but that was all.
If I go into the recordings menu and look at the program I tried to record it states 'Failed' and has a small description in red in bottom right corner --> 'No errors, but no data delivered. This is usually because the device failed to lock a...'
the rest of the message was cut off.
Looking throughout the forum it appears maybe my firewall was blocking three files(nrecord.exe and I don't recall the others off hand) but when I checked there were exceptions on all three and I also went into my modem settings and opened a udp port for 8866. Still get the same errors.

I use zap2it for my listings and the xml file appears to be good, since I can see the programs in the guide. But that may mean nothing, I dunno.

I have attached the latest log file, or a link to the latest one here:

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Pretty much as subject suggests - is there a smartphone/tablet interface to support changing channels, etc.? I'm not looking to stream to the smartphone/tablet - just want to control the on-screen interface.

I saw the docs for the TouchWeb interface - but docs look old, so not sure if supported. Also saw NEWA which looks current, but still isn't "just" an interface for something like a remote. I see it's included, so I'll give it a try as soon as I can.

But is there anything else?

I've exported the channels from the HDPVR device and looked through the output. Each channel in the output .xml has a keyword "Channel.ServiceType" and is set to 25. I found service type only in the Channel Mapping table which contains no further information about this field.

Would you please tell me what service type is and how it's used?

Thanks.

Hi, I installed the nextPVR as a backend for KODI, but I noticed, that nextpvr comes with its own user interface that is kind of similar to kodi. So is it even worth it for me, to use kodi, if i only want to watch and record live tv? Should i simply only use the nextpvr interface? thanks

Bug or feature?
I removed one of my two AVerMedia Duet cards (dual tuner) and replaced it with a new TVS 6704 Quad tuner.

You can see in the settings that the TBS has four ATSC tuners present. The Avermedia has two present, and two that are not present. This is correct.

Under device status (from the NPVR system tray), even the non present tuners are listed: Avermedia Tuner 3 and 4. Is this by design, or a bug? Should the status at least differentiate the tuners that are not present or otherwise functioning? (I am aware I can switch them to disabled)

Another question, but regarding tuner priority. While status the device status last night, when the scheduled recordings for the night were starting, The TBS 6704 tuner 0 and an AverMedia Tuner was in use. Based on my priority settings, shouldn't the TBS 6704 tuner 0 and tuner 1 cards have been the first to be in use?

Thanks,
Matt

I've searched a fair amount and can't figure this one out. Is it possible to include the channel name somewhere in the file naming pattern for recorded shows? Currently when I record an OTA show it is named like "Blindspot_20160303_20002100.ts" and I want to include something like "Blindspot_CBS2-HD_20160303_20002100". I need the channel info somewhere in the name so I can use different comskip ini's for different channels to strip out commercials correctly.
