Need to intermittently restart NPVR Service to get NPVR and KODI to work correctly

[mvallevand]

Glad you got it going even if you likely missed a step since that work won't be necessary if you capture stdin and stdout properly.

KODI just crashed (Screen froze) in the middle of watching a recorded TV show.

NPVR gave error of unable to connect to Remote Server.

Stopped an Restarted NPVR Service. Everything working again.

Here are the 2 Windows Event Viewer errors generated when KODI crashed:

Uploaded NPVR logs.

Sub will need to look my guess is you have too many recordings for internal tables

Okay, sounds like a problem unique to my computer.

[sub]

It looks like it's a timing thing happening around EPG update time, where it reschedules power management events.

Can you let me know if this updated nshared.dll helps?

[elstaci]

I will. Thanks

Update:

Since 3/31/2020 when Sub gave me the new .DLL to replace the current .DLL it seemed to have fixed the NPVR Service issue. It only has been 4 days but without any incidents concerning the NPVR Service.

Before the problem would occur two or more times in one day.

[sub]

Greats - sounds positive

[elstaci]

Sub the updated .DLL is that the .DLL for the next v.5 update or did you specially alter the .DLL to fix my specific issue?

The reason why I am asking is that possibly other Users may download the updated .DLL thinking it might fix their problems also.

[sub]

It'll be included with the next release.
