Hey all, I hope this post is useful to more than just me. I know I've received buckets of help from lurking these forums. Now it's my turn I suppose.
I use Cable Cards via Cox. v5 on one machine, v4 on another. I have NextPVR, Kodi, and HDHR app. I've only really tested on the v5 machine, but have observed this occurring on v4 machine with same channels. This happened once before to channel 1007 (ABC-KETV), but somehow that got fixed and is now playing just fine in NPVR.
Right now, when trying to play live tv (or a recording from one of these channels) using NextPVR, I get only blank screen and tuner is activated. I don't get an error message, I'm able to hit stop to return to guide, and I can select a different channel and it will play just fine. Also, with a channel that doesn't work in NPVR, it does work in HDHR or Kodi using same tuners. Recordings also play just fine using Kodi.
I've tried changing decoders, settings of decoders, looking through the logs for anything useful / obvious. I just can't tell why it's behaving this way.
I'm able to watch these channels via the Web app (browser) that otherwise turn blank screen on desktop app.
Channels that don't work; 1010 (Fox-KPTM), 1042 (CNBC), 1041 (E!),
Channels that do work; 1008 (NBC-WOWT), 1009 (ABC-KETV), many others.
I almost want to say this happened when NPVR glitched when starting a channel and crashed. I haven't tried uninstalling / reinstalling since lots of other channels work, along with other applications.
I much prefer NPVR, but will use Kodi in the meantime. I hope you can find something to fix in the logs i've attached.
Take care,
footballerccs
