MVP 86001 and NPVR

[toomanyhandles]

Hi all;

I have an older MVP that I could put back into use; goal would be liveTV, primarily.

Checking for status of these with NPVR, I see that there is a NPVR dongle, but setup section of the wiki is a to-do.

Checking the forum, I haven't found a setup post that uses NPVR directory schema, only for /devnz/gbpvr/ structure, and I see posts saying some folks have considered this a non-working device for a few years, others say it works for liveTV.

Does someone have setup info or a reference post that I've missed? A goal would be to have setup take less work than running coax cable into attic from basement and then down to a currently room currently without a coax line (house is all analog cable TV so far).

Thanks for thoughts!

[edit] ahh for some reason the "its really dead" series of posts from August didn't catch my eye, small laptop display perhaps. Sorry for the noise, off to get the drill bits : )

With the mvpmc dongle on the wiki it should work with NextPVR with SD mpeg2 audio files.

It works, I use it :-)

Replace dongle.bin in the Users\Public\AppData\NPVR\Dongle with the mvpmc dongle. Rejoice at the amazing people that made this work and keep working these years later :-)
