Right. Could you try adding this to each tuner <SocketOpen>true</SocketOpen> and restart.

When i try to open a channel I'm getting tuner not available from kodi, and 'unable to communicate with recording device' from nextpvr. Do i have this setting in the right spot?

NetworkRecorder.xml

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Settings>
  <PluginSettings>
    <NetworkRecorder id="21" instance="1">

Yes, did you restart the service?

Martin

[chairmanfaust]

yes... i see stack trace errors in the logs

[mvallevand]

Is your networkrecorder.dll dated Oct. 2013?

Martin

[chairmanfaust]

no, i think its dated 3/27/12 from this link: http://www.nextpvr.com/nwiki/pmwiki.php?...rkRecorder

[mvallevand]

Try this one then.

Slightly different error in that kodi tells me that a channel cannot be played, and its b/c the NPVR service crashes when i try to tune to a channel. Attached are the NPVR logs.

I removed the socket open from the xml and its working again, in fact it seems like the buffer TS files are being removed after a channel is changed, so I guess my problem was using an old outdated networkrecorder.dll

Im going to leave a channel run for a while and see if the files roll over like they are supposed to...

[mvallevand]

Good but I don't like the look of that NRecord.log. It doesn't show me the proper debug logging. Do you have a newer one showing it working?

NetworkRecorder doesn't support the rolling file.

Attached is the latest log file with the sockeopen statement removed from the xml file, i ran the tuner for about 30 minutes or so on 1 channel, i didnt see any additional settings in nextpvr for debug logging

NetworkRecorder doesn't support the rolling file.

Crap... my wife has been known to fall asleep with the TV on... what would happen if i make a separate partition and put my live buffer there? what happens when the space runs out?
