  Unable to communicate with recording device :(
Posted by: dagsix - 2015-10-05, 12:51 AM - Forum: Legacy (v4.x and earlier) - Replies (16)

Hello,

Hoping for some help here. I was using NextPVR and the world was a beautiful place... then I had to reinstall Windows. Now nothing seems to work. Sad
I have no antivirus running atm on my Windows 10 machine.
I'm using the HVR-1250.

From the TV Guide I get the error "Unable to communicate with recording device".

If I try and start the NPVR Service I get "Unable to start service: Sytem.inValidOperationException Error.

The error from the NPVR log:
2015-10-04 20:42:28.697 [ERROR][1] Unexpected socket exception calling StartStream(): System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8968

I don't understand. NextPVR was working perfectly pre-install.

I've also allowed every instance of NextPVR through the firewall.

Any direction would be helpful as I lost here.

Thanks!

  playback through PCH A110 is cropped
Posted by: dongna - 2015-10-04, 09:54 PM - Forum: MVP & NMT - Replies (17)

I've recently discovered that when playing back recordings through my PCH A110, some of the picture (quite a lot, actually), is being cut off. The picture also appears to be stretched horizontally. I've noticed for some time that the menus are somewhat cutoff, but not to the point where they're not readable, so I never worried about it. But there surely must be some adjustment for this? Is this something that is set within the Settings of NPVR, or is it in the settings on the A110 itself? If someone could point me in the right direction I would be grateful.

  Understanding how Nrecord.exe controls sleep / wake?
Posted by: jksmurf - 2015-10-04, 12:47 PM - Forum: Legacy (v4.x and earlier) - Replies (49)

I'm trying to troubleshoot my PC waking up immediately after going to sleep (after 1 hr 5mins).

I looked at the Event Viewer logs filtered on "Power Troubleshooter" (in logs) and there are a number of events (example below) referring to NRecord.exe which occur after the completion of the wake to record. I also know that PostProcessing.bat calls comskip.exe.

Code:
The system has returned from a low power state.


Sleep Time: ‎2015‎-‎10‎-‎03T22:09:32.453496600Z
Wake Time: ‎2015‎-‎10‎-‎03T22:10:33.966870600Z


Wake Source: Timer - NRecord.exe

Is it likely that what is logged as NRecord.exe is actually comskip.exe, called from NRecord.exe via PostProcessing.bat but logged as coming from NRecord.exe in EventViewer?

If not then any suggestions why NRecord.exe would keep waking the PC every 3 or 4 mins, after it has finished recording?
Finally, what can I do to avoid this behaviour (Server is in the bedroom so is quite sensitive to WAF...).

  determine channels
Posted by: helpful55 - 2015-10-03, 11:27 PM - Forum: Kodi / XBMC - Replies (5)

I have next all set up other than what to put in for the channels I want to access. I would like to use the channels from DexterTV, Phoenix and IPTV, but I have to list those in the settings and I don't know how to determine what goes in there. Can anyone help me get that info? Thanks.

  updateepg.bat script to check if a recording is in progress before update
Posted by: snagglewest - 2015-10-03, 05:28 PM - Forum: Legacy (v4.x and earlier) - Replies (18)

I'm trying to get a script running that checks if a recording is in progress before updating the EPG. My updates are scheduled to run at 5am, not a time I normally have recordings going, but ever once in a while it presents a problem. I messed around with this a while back but couldn't get it working. Having lost another recording has motivated me to fix it. I good while ago I found a snippet that is supposed to check if a recording is in progress and wait until it's done before starting the EPG update. Unfortunately running the bat file seems to put the script into a loop and never actually does anything. I added some simple logging to the script so I could see were the problem occurs. There's nothing recording but the script just keeps restarting itself. Could someone script savvy take a look and see if there's any glaring errors that might be causing

Code:
@ECHO off
REM Update EPG only if not recording

ECHO -------------------------- >> epg.log
ECHO Starting new updateEPG BAT file run - %time%>> epg.log

CD /d "%~dp0"
:loop
set chknpvr=1
"c:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\NScriptHelper.exe" -isInUse | find "NOT RECORDING"
set chknpvr=%ERRORLEVEL%
if %chknpvr% NEQ 0 timeout 300
if %chknpvr% NEQ 0 goto loop
if %chknpvr% EQU 0 "C:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\NextPVR.exe" -updateepgonly
ECHO updateEPG BAT complete - %time%>> epg.log
exit

And here's a portion of the log that gets generated.

Code:
Starting new updateEPG BAT file run - 13:07:56.88
--------------------------
Starting new updateEPG BAT file run - 13:07:58.18

  a little help getting restarted wih a HDHR Prime
Posted by: soccerdad - 2015-10-03, 11:11 AM - Forum: Legacy (v4.x and earlier) - Replies (10)

Hi All
I need some help getting some basic functionality going with a HDHR Prime. I recently upgraded to W10 on one system. I just want to be able to view some basic channels using my HDHR Prime as the tuner. So I installed the latest NPVR release and I have totally forgotten how to set it up for using that tuner. Do I still have to use a network tuner plugin? Or is there a native way to do it. The tuner does not show up in the tuner list in config.

Thanks!

  DVB Data and series recording
Posted by: Tre4Bax - 2015-10-03, 07:52 AM - Forum: Legacy (v4.x and earlier) - Replies (13)

In an attempt to get my EPG working better I decided to stop using the EPGCollectors XML file for my guide and drop back to the standard OTA guide data. This now fills the guide well with some juggles on timing etc. The challenge I now notice is that I do not seem to be able to schedule series type programs. Even if I try and do something like Doctor Who on BBC1 it refuses to even highlight as a recording let alone record all episodes. I tried this because I thought if any guide data would be good it would be the beebs ;-)

The question is, should the guide data I am grabbing from DVB contain this information. i.e. should everything just work?

I'd use SchedulesDirect but unfortunately it appears that is not possible outside of the US and a few related countries. :-(

Any pointers to a flawless EPG would be gratefully received.

  TitanTV UUID and Hauppauge PartnerID
Posted by: davidc502 - 2015-10-03, 03:01 AM - Forum: Legacy (v4.x and earlier) - Replies (4)

This has probably been hashed many times, but I looked through quite a few posts, and didn't see the following, so I'll ask.

http://www.titantv.com/Services/PartnerT...op=GetUUID

Has anyone discovered any PartnerID's or way of getting the uuid for TitanTV? I hear there's no way of getting it anymore, but didn't know if anyone had any other ideas.

  Universe plugin update
Posted by: mvallevand - 2015-10-02, 11:55 PM - Forum: UbuStream, Web Radio and Universe - No Replies

I forgot to post the attached update for Universe that fixes a problem when there is no video meta data in the UPnP info

Here it is playing LiveTV in Kodi from an HDTC (wifi) Note this plays directly bypassing NextPVR
