I was wondering if there was a way to export/import channels into the v5 .db3? I couldn't find the option to do so in the web interface.

Force retune between two back-to-back shows on same channel?
It happens that I occasionally want to record two multi-hour shows that run back-to-back on the same channel. I know from experience that in that long a period with no user input, my cable box is going to put up an "Are you still there? Press a button" overlay sometime during the second show and that recording will be ruined. What can I do?
I've tried putting a -1 minute post-pad on the first recording and then adding a 1-minute manual recording on some other channel between the two. NextPVR won't allow it, as it apparently thinks the first show is still recording and wants to cancel it.
I suppose I could turn the entire first recording into a manual recording, so NextPVR won't do that, but creating two manual recordings as a workaround is getting pretty inconvenient. Any other ideas on how I can force a retune between the two shows? Thanks.

NextPVR for Raspberry Pi - yippee!
This looks excellent. When I changed from recording on a Windows PC to recording on RPi (less power consumption for an always-on computer), I had to switch to TVHeadend which does a good job but has a couple of deficiencies:
- lack of GUI EPG (table of programmes as channels versus times/dates): not as easy to see overlapping programmes with a long list of events on all channels
- lack of intelligent handling of overlaps: it can't tell you when you first schedule the overlapping programme, only when it actually tries (and fails) to record it, which is very naive
These are things that NPVR did very well - certainly on Windows.
When I've got some time, and when my Pi isn't busy recording anything on TVHeadend, I'll give it a try.

Premium Channels not imported
I am using the current NPVR v4.2.4, HDHomeRun Prime and RPi3 Kodi v18.x
I just added HBO, Showtime and a couple of others to my lineup. I re-scanned with HDHomeRun Setup and HDHR finds the new channels just fine, however, NPVR does not import in the new channels. Is there something different between the premium channels and the normal cable channels?
I'm in the process of re-scanning, so I don't have current logs. Scan's take a long time to complete, but I'll try to get logs as quickly as I can.
Thanks

Element Not Found
When trying to backup my NEXTPVR library with a simple copy command, when it hits the *.ts files I get the error message "element not found" although the other files copy without issue. I am also unable to copy using Explorer even to the same directory. It appears to read the entire file without issue and when it hits the last byte it gives the error.
This is hosted on a local NAS, using an NTFS share, which the files play perfectly and are deleted when I want them gone via the app.
I trieded stopping the NEXTPVR service in case it was locking the files without luck.
Has anyone come accross the same issue and if so how have you worked around this.
Thanks.

npvr.db3 is missing
Downloaded version 4.x and install it. It stopped installing at the npvr.exe and a window came up. It stated: server database not found at: \\hushpc\npvr\npvr.db3. I clicked ok and it resumed the setup. I started the npvr.exe and the same message appears. I tried settings and it still appears. I can't get the program to open to reset the location and when I set up the location manually it did not work. Any suggestions?

V5 channels
Hi,
There are two channels when scanning Germany / cable not found that was synonymous with V4
1. RTL 122000/6900 64QAM SID53601
2. SAT1 122000/6900 64QAM SID53626
at V4 you could manually enter channels I miss at V5
also do not scan all Countries / all Fequencies, they're just starting 300000.
With kind regards

N00b got this far and now needs you help PLZ
Hey guys,
First thanks for you help in advance. I was able to download and install V4 onto a windows 10 machine. I then configured it to run a m3u stream. I can see the "Live TV" and all the channels but when I click on one the player window opens but just says "requesting stream for channel and nothing plays.
I also wanted to see if I could access it from another computer and using the web interface I can but the same thing happens.
Thanks

iPad 2 updated NextPVR app and not sure it should have but now app constantly crashes
NextPVR was working perfectly on my old iPad 2 until this most recent update. Any way to go back to 1.7? The app opens then as soon as the channel list populate or maybe even right before, the app crashes every time. I have completely erased my iPad and installed only it, and it still does it. The previous version worked with no issues. NextPVR is awesome and love that you all have given me a use for my old iPad 2. The new 2.0 version says on the website that it requires iOS 10, but my iPad is running 9.3.5, which the App Store says. But maybe this isn't supposed to install on my iPad? I think the App Store should have not allowed me to update to 2.0. But it did and now it crashes. Please make it work again. Help!!

Why doesn't NPVR Server start when booting into Windows?
Is there a way to start the NPVR server as soon as you go into Windows after a reboot? The only way I can get the server to work is to pin the command window with NPVR Server and open it manually.

v5 is awesome!
v5 is awesome, great work! Tuning to channel in Kodi is now instant,in v4 I had to wait ~4seconds. Since I'm running Windows box atm.
I'm looking forward to see how it will work in virtual environment as tiny linux box so what should I use to minimize memory usage and move it away from Kodi box? CentOS/Debian/something else?
ps. any chance to include DAB radio in v5?

EPG data from Zap2xml for only the next 6 days
Hi,
My last full day of EPG data from Zap2xml is July 19 (typically I have 14 days). Been using Zap2xml for a long time and remember several times when the Zap2xml program needed to be updated due to changes at Zap2it. We may be facing the need for another program update. The last update at the author's site is DEC2018.
Has anyone else noticed this? I'd like to rule out it being a problem with my system.
Thanks.
