C:\Temp\

[neomartin44]

I am using windows8 . The buffer won't use C:\Temp\,because it does not exist and can not make any folder for buffer. Please help.

why dont you create the folder?

Two possible solutions:

Create a C:\Temp\ folder.

Use a different folder for the Live TV buffer. You can select whatever folder you want in the NextPVR settings - To get into settings right-click anywhere in the NextPVR window or on the title bar and click Settings. You will find the option to select the folder used for the Live TV buffer on the Misc section. It's all described in the NextPVR Wiki.

Have tried creating folder and pointing to it and still comes up with unable to communicate with rec service.

did you install all these things (yes you do need to do it even though your on w8 and its newer)

also try turning off your firwall to test. If that fixes it you need to add npvr to firewall

Are you sure that the recording service is installed? Sometimes you need to run the installer as Administrator to get it installed properly.

NPVR includes applications to Start NPVR Service and Stop NPVR Service. I would tell you to find them via Start\All Programs except I hear that Windows 8 has no Start button.
