NextEnd v5 trial release

[jcole998]

Thanks, Martin. Mystery solved...previous links you sent me were broken when the forum changed.

The trick is to use the old broken link ie https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...post521572 and then find the text in the link LivePvrData and use that in a forum title search.

Good tip, thanks.

I recorded a College Football game today and NextEnd didn't seem to start. I suspect UCF at Georgia Tech wasn't a monitored game.

To test NextEnd I began recording the Chicago White Sox at Cincinnati Reds

I see the following error in my nrecord.log and no nextend.log

starting: bash -c "'/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts/ParallelProcessing.sh' '/Data/RecordedTV/MLB Baseball/MLB Baseball_20200919_16001900.ts' 40.1 1260 25 'MLB Baseball'"

It's still working here is this a new install?

I think I found a problem. When I run

Code:

/opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel

The response is

Code:

NEXTPVR_INSTALLDIR /opt/nextpvr/system/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR /opt/nextpvr/system/data/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA /home/craig/.NPVR-data/ Unhandled exception. System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '/home/craig/.NPVR-data/Plugins/NextEnd'.    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1.CreateDirectoryHandle(String path, Boolean ignoreNotFound)    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1.Init()    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1..ctor(String directory, Boolean isNormalized, EnumerationOptions options)    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerable`1..ctor(String directory, FindTransform transform, EnumerationOptions options, Boolean isNormalized)    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerableFactory.UserFiles(String directory, String expression, EnumerationOptions options)    at System.IO.Directory.InternalEnumeratePaths(String path, String searchPattern, SearchTarget searchTarget, EnumerationOptions options)    at System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(String path, String searchPattern)    at NextEnd.Program.Main(String[] args) Aborted (core dumped)

I'm not sure how or why but NEXTPVR-DATADIR_UESRDATA /home.craig/.NPVR-data/ shows up. This is how it was on my non-Debian install but this is a clean Mint install

All of those paths gets set when you run the service. Try

Code:

sudo NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA=/var/opt/nextpvr/ /opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel NEXTPVR_INSTALLDIR /opt/nextpvr/system/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR /opt/nextpvr/system/data/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA /var/opt/nextpvr/ 2020-09-20 18:35 -0400 2020-09-20 6:35:00 p.m. Not Sunday 2020-09-19 22:30 -0400 2020-09-19 10:35:00 p.m.

I ran

Code:

sudo  NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA=/var/opt/nextpvr/ /opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel

That seems to have fixed it in that I now have nextend..log files. However, when I run the follow command it still indicates NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA /home/craig/.NPVR-data/

Code:

craig@server:/var/opt/nextpvr/logs$ /opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel NEXTPVR_INSTALLDIR /opt/nextpvr/system/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR /opt/nextpvr/system/data/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA /home/craig/.NPVR-data/ Unhandled exception. System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '/home/craig/.NPVR-data/Plugins/NextEnd'.    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1.CreateDirectoryHandle(String path, Boolean ignoreNotFound)    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1.Init()    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1..ctor(String directory, Boolean isNormalized, EnumerationOptions options)    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerable`1..ctor(String directory, FindTransform transform, EnumerationOptions options, Boolean isNormalized)    at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerableFactory.UserFiles(String directory, String expression, EnumerationOptions options)    at System.IO.Directory.InternalEnumeratePaths(String path, String searchPattern, SearchTarget searchTarget, EnumerationOptions options)    at System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(String path, String searchPattern)    at NextEnd.Program.Main(String[] args) Aborted (core dumped)

I'm happy NextEnd is working but this just seems odd to me.

You didn't run the command that I posted, it is one line.

Martin,

Sorry I was a little slow understanding "All of those paths gets set when you run the service." I understand it now.

However, I still think there is something amiss. I did this before my first post. I kept getting an error when running the command below. Bear with me I now know the service path would be wrong.

Code:

craig@server:/var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd$  /opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel Error:   An assembly specified in the application dependencies manifest (NextEnd.deps.json) was not found:     package: 'Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.Reference', version: '4.0.2.0'     path: 'Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.dll'

 
Also note with the proper command I get the same error

Code:

craig@server:/var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd$ sudo  NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA=/var/opt/nextpvr/ /opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel Error:   An assembly specified in the application dependencies manifest (NextEnd.deps.json) was not found:     package: 'Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.Reference', version: '4.0.2.0'     path: 'Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.dll'

I did a a find as below

Code:

craig@server:/var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd$ sudo find / -name Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.dll find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied /opt/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.AspNetCore.App/3.1.8/Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.dll

Looking in NextEnd.deps.json this file is expected to be in /opt/nextpvr/system and it isn't there.
I'm sure there are many ways to fix the problem but being as I'm not that experienced I simply copied

Code:

sudo cp /opt/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.AspNetCore.App/3.1.8/Microsoft.Win32.SystemEvents.dll /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/.

After copying the file into the NextEnd directory and running the proper command it works

Code:

craig@server:/var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd$ sudo  NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA=/var/opt/nextpvr/ /opt/dotnet/dotnet /var/opt/nextpvr/Plugins/NextEnd/NextEnd.dll --monitor --cancel NEXTPVR_INSTALLDIR /opt/nextpvr/system/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR /opt/nextpvr/system/data/ NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA /var/opt/nextpvr/ 2020-09-20 18:35 -0400 9/20/2020 3:35:00 PM 1025467 Vets Saving Pets Like Pulling Teeth Football Night in America 1027333 NFL Football Kansas City Chiefs at Los Angeles Chargers NFL Football Kansas City Chiefs at Los Angeles Chargers EP000031282456 9/20/2020 1:25:00 PM CBS Weekend News 9/20/2020 5:30:00 PM LivePvrData.Data.Net.Responses.StatusResponse [Title=NFL Football, Status=Sep 20 16:25 ET, IsValid=True, IsActive=True, IsComplete=False, IsError=False, ] Sports Xtra CBS 13 News at 5p 1027334 NFL Football Kansas City Chiefs at Los Angeles Chargers 9/20/2020 8:25:00 PM Sports Xtra CBS 13 News at 5p CBS Weekend News 1030489 Nightwatch One Nation Under Watch The Goldbergs Jedi Master Adam Skywalker The Goldbergs Graduation Day KCRA 3 News at 5pm NBC Nightly News With Lester Holt 1029984 Get the World's Best Solar for $0 Down + 6 Months on SunPower Paid Programming The King of Queens Screwed Driver FOX 40 News 1030490 Nightwatch One Nation Under Watch The Goldbergs Jedi Master Adam Skywalker The Goldbergs Graduation Day KCRA 3 News at 5pm NBC Nightly News With Lester Holt The Big Bang Theory The Line Substitution Solution 1029985 Get the World's Best Solar for $0 Down + 6 Months on SunPower Paid Programming The King of Queens Screwed Driver FOX 40 News Two and a Half Men Keith Moon Is Vomiting in His Grave 1030492 Nightwatch One Nation Under Watch The Goldbergs Jedi Master Adam Skywalker The Goldbergs Graduation Day KCRA 3 News at 5pm NBC Nightly News With Lester Holt The Big Bang Theory The Line Substitution Solution The Big Bang Theory The Convergence Convergence Modern Family Heart Broken False 2020-09-20 08:44:12 2020-09-20 16:30:00 Waiting 4:40:47 for event to start
