Hi All,

I have written a small app to update the Season and Episode columns with data gleaned from the Description column.
See http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...-EPG_EVENT

I am still getting recordings without the season and or the episode
Eg. "Top Gear (Includes Sneak Peek - The Block at 928 PM)_20150831_20012130.ts" instead of "Top Gear (Includes Sneak Peek - The Block at 928 PM).S00E01.ts"

From EPG_EVENT Table
Title = "Top Gear (Includes Sneak Peek - The Block at 9:28 PM)"
Description = "Patagonia - Part 1Clarkson, Hammond and May embark on a journey to the southernmost point of South America."
Season = "0" Episode ="1"

Has anyone got any ideas why?

Match Start Of Title and Match Exact Title ... How do these work? It could save from writing another RexX Program to "CLEAN" up the FTA Data.
... to Remove the likes of "- New Episode" , " - New (Includes Sneak Peek...." etc.

Hi All,

I have written a small RexX Program that Queries the description column of EPG_EVENT and updates the season and episode columns.

I think that this would only be of use to people who use the FreeToAir Program Guide.

I find that not all Channels (in Australia) include the season and or episode number with their description :mad:

The required software (RexX and ooSqllite3) can be found here .....
Open Object Rexx is available from --> http://www.oorexx.org/download.html
ooSQLite3 is available from --> http://sourceforge.net/projects/oorexx/files/ooSQLite/

The Program will run on the Latest and Previous versions of NextPVR

The code (epg_series_episode_update.rex and PostUpdateEpg.bat) along with 2 Log files are attached.

If your NextPVR database is not located in C:\Users\Public\NPVR\npvr.db3 then change the line (6 lines from the top) from dbName = 'C:\Users\Public\NPVR\npvr.db3' to dbName = 'where ever it is'

There is no copyright or copyleft on the code I have written, use it at your own peril

I would suggest that you copy your npvr.db3 database to a work folder and point the RexX program at that. when you are satisfied it works to your needs then point the RexX program at the Live database.

OK, I have NPVR working nicely on WIndows 10 however I am running into an issue that baffles me. I believe this to be a Windows 10 issue but here it goes. NPVR won't record to my WDMyCloud. It will however record to an internal hard disk drive that is connected via sata instead network based.

I suspect it is a creditentials/network issue, I admit my skills are weak in this area so I am asking for help to see if any other users have run into this or pointers as to articles/ideas on how to trouble shoot this scenario.

Thanks in advance

Latest NEWA Build 2.17 now available on the wiki. This build is part of the NPVR 3.5.7 release.

I am new to NextPVR and have it all working very well. I have guide data loaded and can record/watch TV.

However, when I go into the Search menu item, I see the Letters column on the left and 2 blank boxes next to it with no shows in them.

Any ideas how to resolve?

Thanks,

Hi everybody,

I'm running NextPVR 3.5.7 on a Windows 8.1 (x64) HTPC with Kodi 15 as front-end. I receive DVB-S2 through a Telestar Digibit R1 Sat>IP-Device (which is the same as an Inverto SP-IDL 400, DSI 400 GSS.box or Triax TSS 400). Watching and recording TV works great both in NextPVR itself and via Kodi.

There is only one issue, I hope you can help me with: The Device has 4 tuners and is therefore capable of streaming 4 transponder streams simultaneously over ethernet to one or more clients. So I should be able to watch/record several programs at once. It seems to me though that NextPVR only supports one single stream from the device at any given moment - so simultaneous watching/recording and PiP work great whilst the programs in question are on the same satellite transponder. But if they are not, NextPVR tells me there is no free device available.

Is there any way to make NextPVR retreive multiple streams simultaneously from a single Sat>IP device? Or can I make it believe, there's 4 devices instead of one, so it doesn't stall as soon as I try to access a second transponder's stream?

I've been spending the whole day messing around with different TV Servers (MediaPortal 1 & 2, Argus) and NextPVR settings but haven't really gotten anywhere. So your help is much appreciated.

Hi,

I'm new here, and new to NextPVR. I'm already a fan - it looks good.

I've upgraded to Windows 10 and therefore lost Windows Media Center. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I've installed NextPVR and successfully configured the 2 tuners in my TV card, and they can see 123 channels.

But I can't actually see any live TV. I'm a bit confused about Decoders etc... The message I'm getting on the screen is "the tuner you were using was required for a recording...." which isn't true.

Any help and guidance really appreciated.

Sorry found my own own solution

I've just installed 3.5.7 on a brand new machine that I plan to migrate my backend to. I did an a XML export of recordings on the old machine and coipied the files across and this all works fine - except for the times shown in the recordings screen.

If I click on a recording I see the time in ready recordings displaying in Zulu time (as the XML says) which is NZST -12 however when clicking on a recording to see details it displays the time correctly in NZST.

Is this a bug in 3.5.7?

Here is a quick modification of the Default TV Guide.
If logo is present there is no channel text. (New UK Freeview and Freesat logos on the Wiki )
The small text for channel numbers, timeline etc. is smaller.
The new jump menu at the bottom is no more. (Couldn't find how to use it without a mouse)

Ideally you should copy your default skin folder and rename it - then overwrite with the 2 files supplied.
I just overwrote the 2 files in the default skin - so they may disappear in future updates.

If you don't want the smaller text don't use the replacement Global.xml
