3.6.6 available (5th Dec)

***sub*** · 2016-01-03, 06:02 PM

I'm testing features for the next release. Can a Schedules Direct user with quite a few (completed) recordings please supply a copy of their npvr.db3 database file? Ideally 20 or more recordings, with a few recurring recordings. If you can help me out, please PM me a download link for the database file. Thanks!

Link sent. Let me know if it works, have not used Google Drive before...

Downloaded. Thanks! That was exactly what I was looking for.

Any news about new (planning) features ?

No. I've got a pile of stuff I'm working on. I don't like to say anything about new features, because I typically experiement with a lot of changes, but some don't go the way I want, so get cut from the list. It's easier to do that when people aren't hotly anticapating some new feature.

A very sensible approach.

Given everything that NPVR already does, I was hoping that sub was working on a new feature where I could press a button on my remote and it would get me a beer out of the fridge... Smile

I think this feature isn't currently planned. Big Grin

Sub, If you get a chance before the next release, please take a look at the issue (I brought this up in an earlier post) relating to choppy/uneven pause/resume/skip performance on "clients" watching live TV. These issues started in 3.5.7 relating to NPVRTSReader2.ax. Even though i am using 3.6.6, I am still using NVPRTSReader2.ax from 3.4.8 because it is the latest version that doesn't exhibit the problems. Thanks.

I suspect it's a hardware limitation. Besides, isn't beer service the reason you get married?
