Hi, I am very impressed with NextPVR and within a day had my machine set up recording, with all minor snags sorted by searching through this forum.  I also got my smart tv to play the recordings via Plex.

When scanning, it missed a channel which I know is there, and can get the info required from the EyeTV setup I was previously using.  Is there a tuner config file which is populated by NPVR when it conducts a channel scan, and is it possible for me to manually edit it to include the missing channel, and if so, which file is it and where is it located in a MacOS setup?

My rig is:
MacOS Mojave hackintosh, NPVR V5, ffMPEG home-brew installation, Elgato / Geniatech Netstream 4Sat.

Cheers!

NextPVR stores channel and other data in the npvr.db3 database file but I don'y know where this is on a Mac ... https://github.com/sub3/NextPVR/wiki/components

It's not really practical to manually add a channel, since you need to know lots of low level tuning information and channel identifiers.

Maybe try scanning, then post the logs and name/frequency of the missing channel and I'll see if I can find the cause.
