I have been getting recording failures regularly for about the last month. They always say "No errors, but no data delivered. This is usually because the device failed to lock a signal." I have a SiliconDust HDHomerun dual network tuner and a Hauppage single tuner card in the pc. The pc has a wired ethernet connection. I am a little suspicious of the HDHomerun but everything looks OK in settings. logs attached.
I am testing NextPVR as a replacement for Media Center in Windows 10. The tuner installed is the Hauppauge HVR-1600 with WinTV v8 installed. When I run NextPVR and click Live TV I get a message that no channels have been setup and to use Settings - Devices, however there is no Settings in the main menu. The tuner works okay with WinTV and Media Center (in Windows 7) so I know it is okay. Can you help?
Thanks
I want to modify the number of recordings for the "keep"-functionality in Recurring Recordings, but I can't find it in the database. Can someone tell me what table and field it's in? I have some recurring recordings where "keep" was not set, and when I set it now, it starts counting with new recordings, not taking the current set of recordings in account.
I am setting up a new HDHomeRun Connect to use with NextPVR on my Server (Windows Server 2012 R2) and am having an issue finding the "Location Tab" within the program. I did review this topic but was unable to get the component registered (checked the directory and it was not there. I assume this was supposed to be installed with the HDHR Setup installation. I am able to use HDHR Viewer on various devices around the house but can't go through the proper setup documented here to configure NextPVR
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Looking forward to using my HDHomeRun!
Have been trying to find how to get a UUID - the legit way - but I can't find anything anywhere, except TitanTV's "Get" page, to sign up and get a UUID.
Seems to require a "partner ID", and I'm assuming that NextPVR isn't a "partner"? So is there anyway to get a UUID for TitanTV to use it's service?
I changed my setup last weekend, deactivating two of my four HDHomerun tuners. After this the EPG wasn't updated at night. It looks like npvr is still trying to use the deactived tuner, giving the following error:

I've solved it with a fresh install, but maybe it can be solved in a new release to prevent it from happening with other users. I couldn't find how npvr selects the tuner to use for the epg update.
One question though: my provider broadcasts all epg data for all channels on one channel. Is there way to only select this channel for the epg update? Because that would make it really quick.
Has anyone researched how best to keep the time-of-day clock used by a cable TV settop box in sync with a PC's time-of-day clock? Is there a common "timebase trigger" that can be used to keep them together?
As of now, I check each week and after a reboot to make sure the two clocks show the same time-of-day, to the second. If left unattended, the clocks will drift apart to the point of missing showtime.
If I were to use the tuner built into my television and a signal sucked, I push the channel change button and go to the next one.
I have noticed in NextPVR that when I select a channel that has poor signal quality, the entire program seems to hang until either a timeout is exceeded or enough signal gets through to let the interface respond.
This seems to be a bigger issue when using the NextPVR plugin with Kodi, but it also happens when I use NextPVR directly. The program acts similar to a web browser trying to connect to a website.
Is there a fix for this? It could just be some setting that I have not enabled.
Small question... How can EventGhost be used to control NextPVR? From the wiki, I found an example where GBPVR is controlled via EventGhost using hotkeys and window identification. http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tips/EventGhost
