Yep - looks fine in the logs. I can see it pulling in the listings from your xmltv file.

I've now sorted my Windows schedule so now EPG gets updated every day.

Now, my only problem with using NextPVR is that one channel, Al Jazeera, English, New Zealand, does not play. All EPG data is updated and displayed correctly.
This channel worked fine when I was using ServerWMC before switching to NextPVR.

The weird thing this works perfectly in WMC.

I'm using the same 3 tuners for both.
Avermedia Dual DTV card
Pinnacle DTV USB Stick

Please let me know if I should move this post to a more appropriate place.

If you do a recording on that channel, does it play correctly in another player like VLC?

I've recorded a half hour show on Al Jazeera and it does not play in any player including VLC, and throws errors in Emby.
I noticed the file is only 7MB when it should be around 700MB for a half hour show, so it looks like no transmission is starting.

Please find attached snip of the Channel Info in NextPVR.
Maybe there's a clue in there



I appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks

I've never tried watching Al Jazeera, but just tried now. It doesn't look like it's broadcasting any data for the channel. ie, they've added it's name, but there is no data.

ie, you wont be able to watch this channel on a set top box either.

Mmmm - I don't have a set top box, but it plays fine on both my Sony TV's and of course WMC on my PC. I haven't re-tuned my TV's for months so it would appear that nothing has changed with the broadcast. I very rarely watch the channel but I hate loose ends and its strange that the only app it doesn't work in is NextPVR
These all share the same OTA antennae.

I'll keep investigating when time permits.
