Not getting EPG and can't view channels

[andrewpmoore1]

I've wanted to try nextpvr for years but not had a windows server but noticed v5 with docker, so I'm happy

I've got a synology drive with docker and used the following command to run a container

sudo docker run -d --volume /volume1/media/nextpvr/config:/config --volume /volume1/media/nextpvr:/recordings --volume /volume1/media/nextpvr:/buffer --publish 8866:8866 --env HOST_IP=192.168.0.118 --publish 8020-8030:8020-8030/udp --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri nextpvr/nextpvr_amd64:latest

(tried with out without the --device part)

I'm using a HDHomerun quattro in the UK.

It finds the hdhomerun fine and channels, but then doesn't populate the epg.
Also if I try tune to a channel I just get "Stream Failed Transcoder Exited"

I've attached my logs.
Any ideas?

My idea would be for you to attach your logs using better adhesive ...

The forum software requires you to click twice ... once to browse for the log zip file and a second time to attach.

 hopefully attached now
I changed from latest tag to stable and now I can see channels in the web browser, but still no epg

I assume that you have EPG Source as "DVB/ATSC EPG".

Please reboot ... This will reset everything and restart the logs.  Then in NextPVR Settings -> About ... Click the Update EPG button

Wait for about 10 minutes while NextPVR scans frequencies retreiving EPG data and then post the logs again.  Thanks.

Thanks, after rebooting and pressing update EPG it finished pretty much straight away with 0 inserted / updated, which was different to the first time when it spent about 6 seconds on a channel before moving onto the next.

Yes the epg source is: DVB/ATSC EPG

I'm also back to getting "Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)" if I try to watch a channel

Do you have another option then HDHR for these DVB tuners?

When you originally imported these channels, were they imported with 'DVB/ATSC EPG'? or were the originally None or XMLTV, and later switched to 'DVB/ATSC EPG'? If the latter, it might be worth deleting the channels and reimporting them, ensuring they're set to 'DVB EPG' on the HDHR import screen.

Looking at the log messages, I think it's missing some of the extra info that is supposed to be stored with the EPG settings for the channel.

[andrewpmoore1]

Yes they were imported as "DVB/ATSC EPG". I've deleted all the config and started again.

Still same issue. Logs attached.

Is the hdhomerun quatro classed as a legacy hdhomerun? I only put that line into the docker creation command as I was having the same issue beforehand without it.

I think you are setting the HOST_IP environment variable on your docker container, but have it set to the address of your HDHomeRun, instead of your PC.

I think you may also need to map UDP port 8020-8030. ie -p 8020-8030:8020-8030

[andrewpmoore1]

Still no luck, I'd already got the udp ports mapped.
I had got the host set to the tuner which I've now changed but still no luck ?
