Whenever I watch TV from the machine running NextPVR, I see an information banner on the bottom of the screen. Is there a way to turn that off? I've looked through the settings, but I don't see anything.

Thanks

I set up recordings to be recurring for all channels and all episodes. Some shows are shown multiple times during the week and I want them all to show up in the Pending Recording list.

After I get a good recording I then want to cancel all the next showings of that episode with out cancelling the Recurring Recording.

I cancel a Pending Recording and it no longer shows as a Pending Recording until after the next EPG Update. I then have to cancel them again.

Am I wrong in thinking I should be able to do this?

I don't have a remote yet, maybe I'll have to get one but is there a way to get some on screen buttons to push with the mouse to do common remote functions like skip, fast forward etc.

I know you can use the slider but it's very hard to use that to go 10 seconds back in a movie for example.

I also know there is the right click where you can pause and play and but no skip fast forward etc.

The keyboard shortcuts aren't a good option for me as the keyboard is too far away.

Any ideas for a solution would be much appreciated. Many thanks.

Looks like I was right, nobody responded in the other thread. So let me try again in a thread all its own...

Is there any way to cleanly restart the NPVR system? I have tried going into Services and stopping then restarting NRecord, I have tried using the links in the NPVR folder to Stop NPVR Service, then Start NPVR Service, and I have tried using "Restart Recording Service" from the context menu on the tray application. In almost every instance (the "Restart Recording Service" worked the first time, but never again), after restarting the tray application is messed up - won't accept a right click. I've even tried exiting tray application first, then stopping and restarting, but no luck.

So, best case if I could get things to work cleanly from a scheduled task, that would be great. But even if I had to do it manually, as long as it didn't mess stuff up that would help.

Thanks.

Windows 7
Kodi 15.2
NextPVR CLient (for Kodi) 1.10.8
NextPVR 3.5.7

There are times when I launch Kodi that Live TV (NextPVR) does not appear on my Home screen.
Quitting and restarting Kodi does not help. I must reboot the computer and restart Kodi to get it to load

Any ideas on how to fix?

Here is my log

Having just installed NextPVR I'm now trying to figure out how to auto update the EPG listings 7 days out (USA). I tried following a few tutorials on using mc2xml but the listings don't update, and I now have read that Microsoft is no longer updating EPG listings anyway so mc2xml won't work.

What is the easiest and free way to auto update the guide listings in NPVR?

I'm on version 3.5.7. Nothing seemed very interesting in the NRecord.log. Let me know if you want any other log information...

Anyone used Windows Server 2012 for a next pvr server?

I'm looking at consolidating some of my virtual machines and currently have a couple of windows 2008 and a w10 nextpvr server. Thinking about consolidating all on Windows 10 or Server 2012.

When you click on live and wait for the channel to display or a recording is going to start, is there a time limit set in NPVR that it will wait for the channel to show? If the channel does not appear in the set time, is this when you get a failed to record message or whatever it does state?
I ask because when I display a channel from satellite, it takes much longer for it to display than an OTA one. My thought this may be the reason for some of these recordings to not record.
Or are my thoughts totally wrong?

I haven't had shows like this before, but have run into a bit of an issue. My wife records Miss Marple, and there were some episodes, such as s01e03, that were longer than the normal 1 hour time. In this example, it was 3 hours long. When originally shown, it would have been a single episode, but now it is shown in 3 parts, but all show as s01e03.

NPVR records all 3 episodes as expected. The shows are renamed to Miss Marple.xxxx.ts, then Miss Marple.xxxx.02.ts, and finally Miss Marple.xxxx.03.ts by imagegrablite. The database, though, points all 3 episodes to the original one, dropping the .02 & .03. I have to manually edit the database to add the .02 and .03 to the proper recordings. Any idea if this is an imagegrablite or NPVR problem? We have another of these recordings tomorrow, so I can post logs afterwards if that's what is needed.
