NPVR for Android box

[jrockow]

sub,

any time for this yet?

I checked out your npvr.db3. It looks like you had a group called 'COMCAST' but no channels in it. Like maybe you'd created that group in the past, and since deleted and rescanned for channels. Your best bet to fix that is go to the Settings->Channels tab, hit 'groups', then drag the channels you want into a new COMCAST group, then I'm sure it'll show up in the app and be able to switch to it etc.

On Android TV progress - I've continued making improvements for driving it with a remote, and it's now much more better than it was. I'll post the updated build in the next couple of days.

I still don't feel like it's where it needs to be for official Android TV support to be enabled in the Play Store though - and doing that before it's ready will just lead to bad reviews, and hurt the app in the long run.

sub,

I have a Comcast group that I've been using for the past couple of years.
After looking into it, it's defined in the TV Listings plugin, not the default TV Guide.
Any way to make use of that, or would I have to create another group for the TV Guide?

Sorry, i don't know anything about where TV Listings might store it's own groups.

It should only take you a minute or two create a Comcast group on the Settings->Channels->Groups screen. It'll be a lot quicker for you to do it there, than me trying to solve it for you some other way.

Hi sub, very excited about android support.
Using a shield with kodi but its PITA with kodi 17 not working with live tv and having SPMC for only tv and kodi for stored media.
Really enjoying nextpvr as a backend, hoping android support will be the awesomeness as well

Thanks for the efforts!

I've been looking at the latest version of the android app and thought I'd mention I still cannot scroll the epg screen although I can schedule and cancel recordings using the air mouse. Also, IPTV channels don't play properly on the fist screen...they do that play/repeat thing they used to do on the Windows client. While I'm pretty sure you're aware of these, Sub, I thought I'd mention it just in case you aren't.

That's weird. You definitely shouldn't have to use an air mouse to scroll around.

If you click the up/down/left/right buttons on other screens, do you see the focus moving around?

[jd1940]

The other screens all work as they should. Just the epg screen doesn't function properly.

[sub]

Do you see any sign of focus at all on that screen? ie, when you select the guide screen, and press down a few times, you don't see any items get selected?

Have you got listings on the first few channels on the screen? You mentioned IPTV, where people often don't have listings, so worth checking....
