I have three USB tuners, and have been running NPVR for about 4 days now.
Every day I have turned on the PC and found the recording service crashed.
Today I caught it.
It appears to be trying to record the same show, twice, simultaneously, using one USB tuner. The recordings last for between 10 seconds and three minutes then the recordings stop happening. The Status window eventually becomes all white, and if a recording is in progress it might carry on indefinately... (I ended up with a 10GB "Simpsons" episode...)
Here's a screenshot...

Notice how the second tuner shows the same entry twice, yet it appears only once in the EPG. It might be worth pointing out that I used to use gb-pvr but had a similar problem because the ABC lists the same show three or four times overlapping on the EPG - see http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...highlight= - this is perhaps a related problem.
Attached is a 'dump' file that NPVR briefly mentioned as the service was dying.
Edit: I notice also that the channel 'numbers' are duplicated somewhat - is this normal?

Edit 2: I noticed under pending, Spicks and Specks was listed twice, so I removed it from recurring. I then added it once, and it appeared twice again under pending. I will try disabling one of the three USB tuners and try again
Edit 3 - Disabled one of the three tuners (the one with less channels since it has a weak RF section) and then removed, re-added Spicks and Specks.
