Just installed 3.6.6 in a Windows 10 Pro x64. Everything seemed to be working fine except the Search plugin. The Search screen came up without any listing. TV Guide is working. I am using Schedules Direct.
Any idea?
FYI - I am new to NextPVR and have been using WMC over 10+ years. NextPVR/kodi will be replacing WMC in my Windows 10 box.
I recently upgraded my NPVR server from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro. Since then all recordings have failed with the following error, No Errors but no data delivered, this is usually because the device failed to lock a signal. I am also unable to watch Live TV. I get a blank screen which eventually comes back and gives me the following error The tuner you were using was required for a recording...
I have reinstalled NPVR, reinstalled Silicondust drivers, deleted and reinstalled NPVR, all to no avail and completely disabled the firewall on the server. I am able to tune to any channel using the Silicondust View application.
I was previously running Windows 10, Kodi and MP TV Server but after a number of years (and a motherboard crash) decided to wipe a go with Windows 10, Kodi and NextPVR backend because I imagine your software will be using a lot less resources than the stonking great MySQL+TV Server backend of media portal - I have a low powered device.
With my last setup, if you where watching a video or live TV when entering sleep mode, upon waking you would see that playback had been stopped prior and Kodi would just be sitting at the menu instead. With the new setup this behaviour is still present and correct for videos but is not happening with live TV. If I leave live TV playing when I hit sleep and wake it back up, the TV imagine is frozen on screen and if I press the back button, Kodi crashes.
NextPVR used to work fine. Around about the middle of December, it stopped working. I run the client on the same machine as the server. It may have been when I upgraded to Windows 10, but I think I saw it working fine for a while. New recordings fail with "Recording Service not running at recording time". Live TV usually comes up with a black screen, but sometimes works (rarely) and sometimes gives me the can't connect message (I haven't seen that one in a while so I don't have the exact verbage). It is configured for a HDHOMERUN device, and the HDHomerun Viewer seems to work with no problems. Scanning for devices seems to work in the PVR client. I did an uninstall/reinstall to no avail.
I have a library of older videos and when I select one, it plays for about 30 seconds then goes black. Sound continues to work fine. No issues on TV Shows, but most of the movies are MP4, MKV files
Using Main Concept (HCW) Mpeg-2 Video Decoder.
All of the files work fine under VLC, just curious which player is NextPVR using and if I have some bad options set.
I have a collection of music videos that I play on a regular basis.
I would like to be able to play a playlist of selected videos using
NextPVR. Currently I can create playlists in .m3u format and
play these on my PC using VLC. I'd like to be able to play
these same playlists on my TV, e.g.:
P/Paul McCartney - Wonderful Christmas Time.mp4
R/Robbie Williams - So This Is Christmas.mp4
R/RUN-DMC - Christmas In Hollis.mp4

I can scan and receive 121 digital channels, but they are in the wrong order, should be:
Any idea how I rectify please? (whenever I rescan I seem to get exactly the same as before) I've already tried to make a custom channel group, by adding/dragging channels into my custom group and re-numbering them, but when I save this custom channel, my channel number edits are reversed back to the incorrect channel numbers (although the order I added them into is the order I want).
Hello all. I'm having some consistency issues with ImageGrabLite. I have NPVR recording a few shows, schedulesdirect account feeding the EPG, shows are saved to a networked share, and then that drive being read by Kodi. Kodi wasn't reading the files right, which led me to IGL.
So initially I set IGL with the switches --rename --zap2it --nfo. It wasn't creating the nfo files, which I stumbled on to that it only does that if it can't rename the file. It did rename the first file, but the name was huge. So before we go any further, at the end of all of this, I'm going to want my config to just create the nfo file and leave the filename alone (--zap2it --nfo --season).
So, the first file is imagegrablite.log.3 which IGL did rename the file and it worked in Kodi but the filename was huge (I realized later I don't want them so huge). I won't know for a few hours if just doing it with the NFO file and without the rename will work in my Kodi setup, but I can post more on that tomorrow.
Between this one above, and the ones below, I got to reading (and struggling with the series below where the failures start) and I changed the post processing.bat file to first do a rename and then create a nfo regardless (based on this).
Moving on, imagegrablite.log.2 is where the failures start. Same first command string, but it didn't rename or create the NFO. In doing some digging I think this may be because TVDB doesn't have updated info on this series, but I didn't discover that till later. Imagegrablite.log.1 is the second half of the command line, just forcing the nfo creation. It didn't do it either, same error.
I then started digging and found the TVDB issue may be part of the problem. And with the name issue, I changed the command line to just create the nfo, don't rename, and I added the --season option so that it wouldn't check anything online and just use the EPG data as that should be good enough for these shows (but I'm not 100% sure on that yet). Imagegrablite.log is the attempt with that string, and again, failure. FYI I recorded the same show again between logs 3/2 and 1 (I did delete it before it recorded again if that makes a difference); just changing the command line to try to get IGL working.
So can someone point me in the right direction to get this working?? Thanks!!
