Hi all...
I have som questions regarding the NextPVR addon/server.
My current setup is, that i'm running a Windows 7 installation with XBMC as Shell, and a administrator account that i control from RDP session. I'm running a Ubuntu machine as a virtual machine on the same pc, an running tvheadend in that ubuntu install. Everything i working like a charm in XBMC, fast channel switching and so on.
The recent talk about the new addon for NextPVR, and the sopposed fast channel switching on a windows only setup sounds really nice! And the even more recent news about nextpvr supporting timeshift in xbmc is even greater!
So i tried setting up a test environment for the windows only setup. NextPVR installation works like a charm, and scanning for the channels was really easy. So I installed the latest xbmc frodo build, and the nextpvr addon from http://www.dotnetdevelopers.net/XBMC/xbmcpvr.html .
So issue nr. 1 comes. When i try to watch a HD channel, nothing happens. The screen remains black, and after a little while, i get the message that the tuner is no longer availible. SD channels plays just fine.
So issue nr. 2. Do i have to make any setup regarding the timeshift support? sd channels didn't seem to have timeshifting support. I activated timeshift in the addon settings.
I hope someone out there can help me out. It would be really nice with a Windows only setup, using less ressources for the virtual machine running Ubuntu.
