Installation on Fedora

[mbo77]

Hi,

I'm completely new to NextPVR but experienced with TVheadend.

I'm trying to install and configure it on a Fedora 34 system. I think I've met the dependencies, but configuring a device reveals that something is missing around DVB tools, scanning tables etc.
Here is the output when I try to scan a DVB-S tuner.

[18] System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '/usr/share/dvb/dvb-s'.

From other posts here I assumed this indicates a missing dvb-apps package, but it is installed.

What am I possibly missing?

From https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid523886 that would dtv-scan-tables If they get installed to another location there is a path override.

export NEXTPVR_DVBDIR=

Yes, got it solved now.
In case someone is missing it in Fedora too: the files are installed to /usr/share/dvbv5
It's scanning now channels.

Thanks.
