Does Web App Need To Be Active For Recording?

[SamM]

Does Web App Need To Be Active For Recording? I recorded a TV program yesterday, but the Web App was open at the time. I'd like to know without doing experiments of trial and error, if I have to keep the Web App open in order to record programs. Of course, I'm assuming that the web app is v.5.

I was installing npvr on a new unit because my old one is on the blink. I was expecting v.4 because that's what I'm used to. But somehow v.5 got installed, and now that it's set up I like it. But it begs the question if I close the web app, will recording still work? Will it still wake up the unit and record on it? Or do I have to leave the browser and npvr open?

Thanks.

No, the web app does not need to be open. The NextPVR server will keep running on your computer as long as it's on (and even after a restart).
