Will SiliconDust new Premium TV feature be comming to NextPVR?

[sub]

Do you think you could change it (for ATSC which isn't protected) to show=found? That gives the demo channels which would be nice to get without having to order the trial.

Martin

Yeah, that'd be an easy enough change - does 'found' include protected cablecard channels though, that the user is unlikely to be able to watch?

We don't have CC in Canada so it would be hard to say, Perhaps the logic could be different for Prime tuner lookup since the don't support premium TV anyway which is for QAM and ATSC devices only.

If you do make this change note that users can disable channels on the HDHR web server

Code:

<Program>
<GuideNumber>1010</GuideNumber>
<GuideName>QVC demo</GuideName>
<VideoCodec>H264</VideoCodec>
<AudioCodec>AAC</AudioCodec>
<Demo>1</Demo>
<Enabled>0</Enabled>
<URL>http://172.16.3.83:5004/auto/v1010</URL>
</Program>

when they are disabled they included the Enabled false markup.

I've attached an updated NShared.dll that implements this change.

Does live TV work now? I can record but not watch live tv with active subscription.
Also, I have 4 tuners but if the HD app is running on FireTV or a PC, the recording fails because the first tuner it tries is locked. NPVR doesn't seem to look for alternative tuners. Presently I think I have worked around it by changing the priority of the tuners so NPVR doesn't try to use the same tuner that the HD app is using.

This was only a minor change to scanning, so shouldn't affect anything else.

That said, I still can't think of any reason live tv shouldn't work. Could you have another go at making your machine remotely available? I didn't get a chance to look at it that last time (was busy with day-job stuff). I'm sure it'll just be something minor stopping live tv working.

Yes, I will. I had to repurpose the tuner but I will shift it back again in the next few days.
