2) Yep, the option is in the Settings screen somewhere (don't have NPVR in front of me to check).

3) Not to my knowledge, but it'll always start on the last viewed channel. That in itself will be stored either in config.xml or in the npvr.db3 database file, so if it's not possible you could always write something to update the appropriate value before launching.

Bad news. The "Last Channel" information in "config.xml" does not support sub-channels (only the 2 digit frequency), and "npvr.db3" does not appear to contain anything helpful. So creating a stand-alone app to pre-set the channel won't work. Sad

Setting the "UI Mode" to "TV Viewer" so it opens straight to TV doesn't work. Black screen. TV never comes up. Must change the mode back to "PVR" and select "Live TV" from the menu.

Is NextPVR still in development? It really needs some sort of indicator when it is recording, and the ability to stop a recording without canceling all scheduled future recordings.

Thx.

If you bump this in a few days (when I'll be home back in NZ), I'll fix this and provide you a patch.

You can see this, and cancel from the Recording screen.

Is it still possible to modify the "config.xml" file to store the Last Channel value so that it includes the sub-channel?

My goal is to write a small app that can change this value prior to launching Live TV so it opens to the desired channel. Smile

TIA
