Nextpvr unaccessable from Jellyfin with 401 error

[Simonzzzz]

I try to use NextPVR Jellyfin plugin to access to my NextPVR Recordings. I try to set both default PIN 0000 and specified PIN, but with correct PIN it keeps return 401:

Log in NextPVR. I don't understand what this error " Unexpected error streaming recording: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key 'sid' was not present in the dictionary." means and how to fix it.

In Jellyfin it shows ffmpeg exit 1 as before.

I can't see where Jellyfin plugins use PIN to autherize, but unautherized stream does not work either.

https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid564960 explains this.  If you run on the same PC Jellyfin would use the filesystem if you enable it.

I can't explain the second error without zipped log but I would turn off thumb generation in both NextPVR as a start. Most of those snippets are because of unauthorized access.

Thanks for replying. I enable unauthorized access and Here is zipped log. How can I turn off thumb generation?

[Simonzzzz]

I set "Generate Thumbnail" to None in General and it still return 500 in ffmpeg.

Testing with curl this appears to be a bug in NextPVR as it checks for sid parameter which doesn't have to be valid. As I noted you need to configure the addon for Direct Play in Jellyfin's addon settings and it will use the filesystem for playback.

You have quite a few other issues, no network on startup and you need to configure a valid Live TV buffer.

It works using filesystem. Thanks for your help!
