NextEnd v5 trial release

[mvallevand]

Not really since if it thinks it will end if 3 minutes it still won't give you 15 minutes. I will check later today hopefully before MNF. Hard to get motivated these past few days, we are having record summer-like weather in the fall right now and the Blue Jays are playing.

Brett, sorry for the delay but I have been puzzling away at this.

Could you check you config.xml for this <AutoExtendSportsEvents> I think you changed it to true seeing this

2025-10-05 08:29:05.395 [DEBUG][1] NextPVR extending = True

so it won't be extended by NextEnd, because in theory it is using NextPVR for extending even though Schedules Direct stopped that service.

It was indeed set to "true". I just changed it to "false" and restarted NextPVR.

Thanks for figuring that out!

I am having trouble with NextEnd for FIFA. First step I noted that I was running an old version,  NextEnd-4.2.0. I updated to NextEnd-5.0.0.zip. For background, since I am on Arch linux NextPVR is installed in /home/craig/NPVR and NextEnd installed in /home/craig/.NPVR-data/Plugins/Nextend 

After updating NextEnd I ran

Code:

sed -i 's/\"\/\"/\"\/home\/craig\/NPVR\/\"/g' NextEnd.deps.json

I edited NextEnd.runtimeconfig.json to add my local path

Code:

                                  
{
    "runtimeOptions": {
        "tfm": "net8.0",
        "framework": {
            "name": "Microsoft.NETCore.App",
            "version": "8.0.0"
        },
        "additionalProbingPaths": [
            "C:/Program Files/NextPVR/",
            "/app/",
            "/home/craig/.NPVR-data/"
        ],

        "additionalAssemblyPaths": [
            "C:/Program Files/NextPVR/",
            "/app/",
            "/home/craig/.NPVR-data/"

        ]

    }
}

If I run ParallelProcessing.sh I receive the following output whether or not a sports recording is being created

Code:

NEXTPVR_INSTALLDIR /home/craig/.NPVR-data/Plugins/NextEnd/
NEXTPVR_DATADIR /home/craig/.NPVR-data/Plugins/NextEnd/data/
NEXTPVR_DATADIR_USERDATA /home/craig/.NPVR-data/
Not recording

I am floundering so I am asking for some assistance,

Thanks

Logs attached

Wrong file attached, give me a minute to correct. Okay logs updated but can't seem to delete NextEnd zip file.

There is no support for the subtitle "FIFA World Cup 2026" or in the ESPN scrapper so I am not surprised.

FWIW I have NextPVR running as a service on Arch just like Debian based.

Thank Martin,

Bummer, there isn't a scrapper. Good to know why it wasn't working as I expected.

I just remembered what worked on the weekend. It was golfing, I don't watch golfing, but I was wanting to record a test sporting event to see if NextEnd worked.

[mvallevand]

If I have some free time I will look at the scraper for the next round.

Looks like it will be possible, fewer changes than I thought. Later today I will test it.

Go Canada

It will need a new client and a server side change but it looks like it will work   No guarantees, but replace this and I will update server before tomorrow's games.
