Post installation you need to decide whether you want to continue to use the locast EPG in XMLTV format or use Schedules Direct

1.  Using XMLTV you would need to follow standard procedures to have NextPVR use XMLTV.  You can leave the setting the same and create an EPG update script that runs each day.

a) Windows UpdateEPG.bat

@echo off
cd/d C:\users\public\NPVR-data\scripts\locast
python locast.py xmltv

b) Other platforms UpdateEPG.sh

cd your locst script folder
python3 locast.py xmltv

2. Schedules Direct choose the OTA code for your zip code or for the zip code of the city you listing and add it to NextPVR

Go to Settings->Channels->Advanced->Automap and select Extra, the SD OTA listing, and the Numbers and Identifiers option.
