Hi All

So I just got my HDHome Connect box and have installed NextPVR.. all good so far.. cards found, things are recording etc. Now to where I need help.. and I have read around but not found anything that helps... so sorry if this has been asked a million times. I have the 'use s01e01 naming' check box selected and yet the files that are generated are in the format "Name - date time".. Am I missing something else in order to get the serial/episode style format?

Thanks for your help

The naming relies on series and episode information supplied by the EPG source. It may be that series and episode info is not included in an appropriate format in your EPG data. For example, I suspect that UK DVB EPG data does not have the "right" series and episode data. Many of us use ... http://www.birtles.org.uk/xmltv/ ... though it does not have all channels.

Thanks for the reply. Just had a quick look at XMLTV and will try it out further at the weekend. Which Grabber/post processors would be a recommended choice for the UK? UK_RT?

It's very good for most channels but channels added during the last year or so are missing including, for example, Drama and Spike.

Schedules Direct also supports UK listings now and is considered to have very high quality data as well as excellent integration with NextPVR.
