Scaned channel list not saved

[minnesota]

I uninstalled old version 2.2.6 and installed version 2.3.6. I clicked on Settings>Devcies>ATSC Dongle Digital Tuner. Then I click on Device Set-up and scan. I find 35 channels. That list is not saved and when I click on Settings> Channels there are no channels listed. This routine worked well with version 2.2.6 so now what can be the problem?

No problem scanning channels here; I've done a couple of scans since 2.3.6 to find a wayward channel.

Did you check the boxes next to any of the channels? It only saves the ones you select. If so, repeat the procedure and post logs.

p.s. I move your thread here because you posted originally in the GB-PVR forum, and your question is about NPVR.

It's probably worth compressing and sending your logs. The database changed quite a bit in this version and depending on how you did your upgrade you might have overwritten the database changes. There is no reason to uninstall NextPVR when upgrading.

I tried new scan and made sure all channels were checked. It still did not work. I would include a log, but I don't know where to find it or what file name to find.

If only someone had written a bunch of tech support info telling things like where to get logs, made it into a sticky thread at the top of the npvr support forum, and even linked it into their signature so that it shows up with every single post. Gosh, I wish someone would do that.....

Blessed are the documentation authors as they will be rewarded in heaven. Not before, though.

Run "nextpvr.exe -updatedb" then try again, or delete the npvr.db3 file and it'll create new database when you run the app.
