Dvbv5-scan of Astra 28.2

[sub]

Can you supply your npvr.db3? I what to see what happens with your database at the very start of the scan:

2024-11-06 16:17:32.855 [DEBUG][24] Tuning plan:
2024-11-06 16:17:32.873 [ERROR][24] Unexpected error updating EPG: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Sub he rescanned afterwards and got a good tuning plan for DVB-S so the database won't help, likely a remnant from the beta.

Then problem now is why DeviceHost failed here and didn't continue I figure if he uses Freesat that might not matter for now.

Code:

On the Settings->Channels screen, does it show the EPG source for these channels as Freesat or DVB EPG?

The tuning plan there seems to indicate DVB EPG.

If you read Post #134 you'll see my problem wasn't resolved and in fact I came back to this issue on 30th September and Sub replied on the 7th October confirming that he'd forgotten it but it should be resolved on the next release which I installed today but as it stands here it doesn't appear to be resolved. When requested I'll post logs all day if it helps resolve an issue.

Ultimately, I'm not in UK and don't have access to these signals, so there is some guess work involved. We had a user confirm Freesat/OpenTV EPG on a non-SAT>IP device during testing, but he was on Windows not Linux, so not quite the same setup as you.

Yes that's always been an issue trying to fly in the dark. I did offer to stay with you on this issue after you resolved the 7 day EPG issue for the DVBS Sat/IP tuner in both Windows and Linux. I did supply the details you requested to resolve the DVBS PCIe tuner and assumed you had everything you needed.

If there's any other logs, scans, file etc you need just list them here and I'll supply them.

I'm trying to deploy a properly curated mux file for Astra 28.2 for scanning purposes but it's not showing as available in scanning option in NPVR. I placed the file in the /opt/nextpvr/system/data/tuning/DVB-S so there should be no reason why it's not showing as available.

[mvallevand]

It needs to be in /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s

That custom tuning file location is for SAT>IP and Windows scans

I do have a utility that creates a conf or ini file for the boquet and regions here https://www.satellite-calculations.com/D...Number.php it helps
