The last time I put on a new player I had to restart the recording server to see changes.

Server or service?
I restarted the recording service but will try a full reboot of the PC in a bit.

You should only have needed to restart the service and restart NextPVR. I will see if I still have IE 8 on a machine somewhere.

Can you post your web.log after attempting to play it?

Should we all replace parser.aspx?

Yes, you will probably run into the same parsing issue at some point.

Tried that - even with new parser in post #596, I get a repeating error as below. Video plays a while but no sound. Then bails out. I am not able to locate MP42TSConverter either?

MP42TSConverter is built into the NExtUtilities.dll, it's not a separate program. It's just a wrapper for ffmpeg. Been a while since I've seen that error but it basically means that it's having trouble reading the next line in the error (frame= ...) from the ffmpeg output. I will double check the code as soon as I can (machine is in the middle of a chkdsk).

@jksmurf, it looks like the time parameter on the ffmpeg output is causing the issue. Yours is showing:

Code:

frame= 2247 fps= 56 q=-1.0 size=   14345kB time=[color=#FF0000][B]74.63[/B][/color] bitrate=1574.7kbits/s

And my code is expecting

Code:

frame= 2247 fps= 56 q=-1.0 size=   14345kB time=[color=#FF0000][B]00:00:74.63[/B][/color] bitrate=1574.7kbits/s

so it's messing up my parser.

I will fix this in a little while but there is some work I need to complete first.

@jksmurf, ran into a couple of bugs working on this so I'm sorting them out. But one thing occurred to me: are you using the ffmpeg bundled with NextPVR (it would explain the duration format)? If so, you will need a newer version because of a bug in remuxing AAC audio. The 32 bit Static build from http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ will work.

I attached it just above the screen grap in #599.
I know I need to upgrade my server but you know what it's like when 'it just works'.
Aside from this (minor) YT issue my setup is faultless!

No problem. I haven't installed any other ffmpeg as far as I know, so I think the answer is yes. Do I just replace the ffmpeg in C:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\Other with this one?

Sorry, didn't see the logs. Can you do the following:

Delete the contents of the script folder
Remove the double slash "//" from the line in parser.aspx that has "htmldump.txt"
Try to view a video.
Zip and post the htmldump.txt that gets written to the web/public/youtube folder along with the scripts folder.

You can replace it or you can name it ffmpeg2.exe or something if you like. It can be placed anywhere on your system too. Just make sure to update the path to it in the plugin settings.
