I’m having an issue with NextPVR where live TV sometimes fails to start, even though the tuner appears to be detected correctly. Has anyone experienced something similar? I’m wondering whether this could be related to tuner availability, device initialization, or configuration settings.

What would be the best way to troubleshoot this and identify the actual cause?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!]]>

Just vibe coded an NextPVR Client for Samsung Tizen, Android, Windows and Linux.

Is far from ideal, but worked for the need I had.

Ok, so I have the same iptv provider, but I have two separate accounts with them (one for the parents and 1 for me) these include two different xc logins  

I want to run the NextPVR client from my PC only, at my home and have my kodi at my home pull from my xc login device from the backend client running on my PC  

And I want my parents household Kodi to pull streams from my PC under their device from my PC  

Is this possible ? 

How would Kodi know which device to pull from in the next PVR client on my PC when I run it in my home compared to running it in their home?

My setup:
  • NextPVR Server: 7.1.1.260616
  • NextPVR running in Docker on a Synology NAS
  • Kodi 21 with pvr.nextpvr 21.3.2.1
  • IPTV channels configured in NextPVR
  • Kodi and NextPVR are connected over the local network

The problem:
Live TV playback works normally for approximately 30–60 minutes, then suddenly stops and Kodi returns to the channel guide.
The issue occurs with different IPTV sources, not just one channel. Playback through the NextPVR web player appears stable.

Tests already performed:
I tested different NextPVR Live TV buffer settings:

Buffer size       Approximate playback duration

20 minutes      28–30 minutes
60 minutes      40 minutes
120 minutes    55–60 minutes

I also tested the Kodi NextPVR client's Real Time and Timeshift playback methods.
For the latest test:
  • Live TV method: Timeshift
  • Direct Streams: Disabled
  • NextPVR Live TV buffer: 120 minutes
  • Kodi
    Code:
    advancedsettings.xml
    :
    Code:
    curllowspeedtime=60
Unfortunately, the problem still occurs.

Relevant log messages:
Kodi reports:
Code:
CVideoPlayerAudio::Process - stream stalled
followed by:
Code:
Reconnect, (re)try 1
and:
Code:
Failed: Requested range was not delivered by the server (33)
The NextPVR logs show messages including:
Code:
stream@2 got zero bytes client disconnected Live stream expired without 15 second renewal.
After the stream disconnects, Kodi attempts to reconnect using an HTTP byte-range request, but playback cannot recover.

My questions:
  1. Is this a known issue with the Kodi NextPVR client or NextPVR's Live TV streaming?
  2. Could the HTTP range/reconnect behavior be responsible for the playback stopping?
  3. Is there a recommended fix or workaround?

I have attached sanitized Kodi and NextPVR logs from the latest playback failure. Sensitive URLs, credentials, network addresses and identifiers have been redacted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

I've seen some posts from a few years back noting multirec not being supported on hdhr devices in Linux pointing towards silicon dust API limitations.  I was wondering if this is still unsupported in nextpvr?  

Being the curious type, I went looking for silicondusts API documentation to see what they make available.  I noticed their API documentation was updated in the last few months.  The section about tuning to frequency instead of vchannel drew my attention. Am I looking at the appropriate API documentation NextPVR utilizes for hdhr devices?  And am I interpreting this piece of the article correctly?
