Error detecting HDHR devices with marklambert/nextpvr-ccextractor

SickBoy · 2025-02-01, 03:57 PM

Hi - got back into NPVR by running the official docker container in Docker Desktop on an old Mac I had around. Now wanting to move it to my ubuntu 24.04 machine and it's unable to find the HDHR device on my network....

Code:

I'm assuming I might be forgetting a setup step... here's my docker run command:

Code:
docker run -d --name npvr --volume /mnt/nvm/npvr/config:/config --volume /mnt/nvm/npvr/recordings:/recordings --volume /mnt/nvm/npvr/buffer:/buffer --publish 8866:8866 --restart=unless-stopped marklambert/nextpvr-ccextractor:latest

same HDHR worked on the testbed setup... and I can curl the HDHR's page from inside the container

Code:
root@9cdda30f23db:/app# curl 10.10.10.192

Also getting this error with the nextpvr/nextpvr_amd64 Confused

table container. is there a network port I need to add or a firewall rule?

Looks like you didn't read about the UDP setup https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?tid=59393 (or just use host mode if you have problems)

Why use Docker on a MacBook instead of native?

For clarification - you're referring to the 8020-8030 ports and the HOST_IP variable? It wasn't clear to me if the HDHR I have qualified as a "legacy" one.

I was using my old 2013 Mac Pro as a testbed just to see how it worked and didn't necessarily want to install the binaries (cleaning up with docker is easy). I'm now moving the server to its permanent home on my Radxa x4.

I am not sure if the UDP (and host) would be needed for discovery, the snippet didn't show it trying to connect to the Silicondust site either, that is why I suggested host mode.

After a couple of times of deleting and restarting the container, I finally got it to detect the HDHR's - but then ran into a a problem trying to set the epg source on the device. Seems it's getting into some sort of recursion and I still see timeouts in the log.

SickBoy · 2025-02-01, 05:31 PM

One thing I thought of - are there any specific dependencies for the host OS? This machine started life as Ubuntu Server minimal, so it might be lacking some packages that a desktop distribution has.

UDP or host mode is definitely required for OTA EPG.

I'm setting up with SchedulesDirect.... I tried setting host mode when starting up the docker container but the container never even fully comes up for me (nothing gets written to nrecord.log). UDP port exposure seems to *sorta* work....
