I'm a long time GB-PVR user and finally decided to take the NextPVR plunge. Some things went very smoothly, but one issue has me stumped and I wonder if anybody has found a solution.
Following these suggestions, I imported my GB-PVR library into NPVR. The recordings appear as expected, however after importing season recordings I notice that NPVR re-schedules existing recordings.
GB-PVR's recording-dump.xml contains <uid> fields with unique ID values set by Tribune and forwarded by Schedules Direct. I took a look in npvr.db3 and see that EPG_EVENT table contains the uid information in column unique_id. However, I've found no way to map this unique_id to any field in the SCHEDULED_RECORDING table.
My video library contains some ~2000 recordings so I hope there is some way to recover or rebuild unique episode mapping in NPVR.
I can't believe I'm the first person to run across this issue but I couldn't figure out the right forum search terms. Can anyone help shed light?
Many thanks!
