I'm upgrading from version 3 and have gone between version 4 and 5, leaning toward 5 because that is where active development is taking place. (Thanks Sub)
One issue is that with V5, when I try to import my 375 or so shows with the web interface, it says 'no shows imported'. There doesn't appear to be a means of import via the windows native app settings menu anymore.
Import worked fine with V4. In case of formatting compatibility, I then exported from V4 and tried to import to V5, still no dice.
The recordings are on a mapped drive, so I did a test. I removed all recordings from the xml file but one. Still no go, until I copy the one recording over to a local drive and change the path, then it works.
So the issue appears to be that V5 web interface can't import recordings from mapped drives currently (5.1.0.201216). Note this is on Microsoft Edge V 87.
Secondly,
I also cannot find any log generated relevant to this issue in the "NPVR-data\logs" folder. Due to the web interface nature of this version's settings? Are the web interface logs stored somewhere else?
Final, unrelated question, how can we choose the transcoding compression type (x264/5 for example)? I only saw a setting for bitrate.
