I installed NextPVR 5 on Linux Mint 19.3. I was able to scan for and find around 60 channels.
When I try to watch one of these channels from TV Guide by selecting the channel and clicking on Watch Now, I get the message "Failed to start requested stream".

Is there another place to send my log files?  I've tried 3 times. From this page. It doesn't seem to work well with my browser.

Are you attaching a zip file and is it under 2MB?  If you can't figure it out you will need to use OneDrive, GoogleDrive, DropBox etc.

It's odd how long it takes your server to start and it didn't find the device

2020-11-06 13:53:05.612 [DEBUG][1] Local Devices: <devices>
</devices>

Does it help if you run

sudo service nextpvr-server restart

If so you will need to see why you server is taking so long to start.

Was you server offline from the network when you started?

2020-11-06 13:53:07.460 [DEBUG][10] Unable to find ipaddress via connect

Thanks for the reply, Martin.

As you suggested, I tried 'sudo service nextpvr-server restart', but saw no difference.

I don't know if the server was offline from the network when I started.

Anyway, I'm going to put this on hold for a bit as I'm working on getting MythTV running again. I have NextPVR 4 running well on my Windows 10 partition so that will hold me over.

Thanks for your suggestions, and I'll post a reply when I get back to this issue.

Ok when you get back to it check the log and if you see

<device>
<name>adapter0/frontend0 (LG Electronics LGDT3306A VSB/QAM Frontend)</name>
<type>ATSC</type>
<filter>adapter0/frontend0</filter>
<instance>1</instance>
<resource>adapter0</resource>
</device>
<device>
<name>adapter0/frontend0 (LG Electronics LGDT3306A VSB/QAM Frontend)</name>
<type>QAM</type>
<filter>adapter0/frontend0</filter>
<instance>1</instance>
<resource>adapter0</resource>
</device>
</devices>

that is good. If the device list is empty then you need to add a startup delay so NextPVR doesn't start before your devices have registered.

I would have liked to see if the restart helped this.
