NextEnd v5 trial release

[mvallevand]

Basically the monitor program is initiated by the EPG update. Unless you script is really smart it calls it everyday. This message is basically just a check to confirm when it exits why it exits. On Sunday it will not exit at this check, so it will check the schedule for games and push affected recordings.

It is unlikely that there is much impact outside NFL season but say the Final Four game on CBS Sunday afternoon went really long if you record 60 Minutes or the CMT awards they might get adjusted.

I didn't watch the first women's NCAA game but watched all but the last .8 sec of the UConn vs Iowa game on ESPN.

Both NextEnd monitor logs ended like this. Not sure why though.

Code:

2024-04-05 22:10:15.453 [DEBUG][1] LivePvrData.Data.Net.Responses.StatusResponse [Title=Women's College Basketball, Status=Start Delay, IsValid=True, IsActive=False, IsComplete=False, IsError=False, ]
2024-04-05 22:10:15.453 [DEBUG][1] Sports event monitor did not start
2024-04-05 22:10:15.453 [DEBUG][1] Monitor status = none

[mvallevand]

Yeah, that's weird, same thing happened here (EDT)

2024-04-05 23:11:37.927 [DEBUG][1] Sports event monitor did not start

For some reason the ESPN ticker API wasn't reporting the start of the game when NextEnd does it's second check 20 minutes before the end of the game so it just let's the normal show record. I did this mainly for NASCAR since it can have days of delay and I didn't want to monitor that.

For me though I noticed that in the 4th quarter since I was watching the recording live. I tried to record it but my setting to restart from the beginning as catchup was causing the game to record from the beginning (Facepalm) and I had to disable that and it did start monitoring. I may disable that in the addon if this happens often enough.

2024-04-05 23:16:33.939 [DEBUG][1] LivePvrData.Data.Net.Responses.StatusResponse [Title=Women's College Basketball, Status=7:27 - 4th, IsValid=True, IsActive=True, IsComplete=False, IsError=False, ]

2024-04-05 23:28:35.738 [DEBUG][1] Extending live end time by 15 minutes

So I didn't miss anything. Glad you got to see the offensive foul in the last 10 seconds that probably kept Iowa's hopes alive.

Martin

[VCR58]

Yeah, that was an unpopular call, but was certainly good for Iowa.

I'll just use post-pad for tomorrows championship game.

Hey, Martin.

My Sunday prime-time shows (particularly on CBS) seem to have not been extending for earlier sports delays like they used to.

I just updated NextEnd to the 4.2.0 plug-in from the wiki. The monitor process seems to work. But the per recording run is getting an error. You can see those in the attached log files.

When I looked in the Windows Event Viewer, I found these errors which I think are probably related:

Code:

Description: A .NET Core application failed.
Application: NextEnd.exe
Path: C:\Program Files\NextPVR\NextEnd.exe
Message: Cannot use file stream for [C:\Program Files\NextPVR\NextEnd.deps.json]: No such file or directory

and

Code:

Description: A .NET application failed.
Application: NextEnd.exe
Path: C:\Users\Public\NPVR-Data\plugins\NextEnd\NextEnd.exe
Message: It was not possible to find any compatible framework version
The framework 'Microsoft.NETCore.App', version '6.0.0' was not found.
  - The following frameworks were found:
      2.2.6 at [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]
      3.1.32 at [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]

You can resolve the problem by installing the specified framework and/or SDK.

The specified framework can be found at:
  - https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?framework=Microsoft.NETCore.App&framework_version=6.0.0&arch=x64&rid=win10-x64

I did my install in the NPVR_Data\plugins\NextEnd folder on top of the previous install there per the wiki Windows recommendation. Then I looked in my C:\Program Files\NextPVR\ folder and found NextEnd.exe and NextEnd.dll there--and those were the ones my scripts were calling. So I deleted those, updated my scripts to point to the NPVR_Data directory version, and restarted.

Now I'm not getting the NextEnd.log file at all, and just the repeat of the "not possible to find any compatible framework version" event log message.

Now I'm not getting the NextEnd.log file at all, and just the repeat of the "not possible to find any compatible framework version" event log message.

I went ahead and installed the https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?fra...=win10-x64 framework. Then I got the NextEnd.log file back, and the Event Viewer error went away. But I'm back to getting the "event not found" stack trace in the NextEnd.log file.

Setting things up outside of NextPVR since v4 takes some work but it seems to work in some limited testing. Inside the Program Files/NextPVR you need to delete the json files.

Is the sport that is causing you issues PGA? If so that isn't really well supported by NextEnd server

I didn't have the json files in the Program Files\NextPVR directory. I did check for those.

Yes, I believe that the sport causing the stack trace was a PGA game:

[mvallevand]

That stack trace from the server is normal for unmonitored events. It should run from Plugins though

I appear to have the same error.
