Do you have NextPVR setup and working with your HDHomeRun Prime, so that you're able to see the channels in NextPVR? If that side is all set up fine, then we can move on to the XBMC side of things.

The black screen problem I also had on nextpvr, can you hear the audio ok from the channel you're playing? If you hear the audio then follow these steps.
If you go into the settings, then decoders, you will see video renderer & it will probably be evr, if you take that down to overlay, click ok & restart next pvr & try again.

I think there's a codec pack that was created by the nextpvr team that had better codecs for windows but since your using nextpvr as a backend and xbmc as the frontend you should be able to get it going just using the built in microsoft & lav codecs. Make sure you set all possible decoders to something.

It'll probably be the normal problem HDHomeRun user's encounter - firewall. You'll need to add firewall exclusions so that NextPVR.exe and NRecord.exe can receive data from your HDHomeRun.
Once you have it working natively in NextPVR, then it should be pretty straight forward to get it working in XBMC.

If you're getting video in XBMC, then it must also be receiving the audio. I'm not really sure setting will fix this, but it'd be some audio setting within XBMC (rather than a NextPVR setting).

I poked around a bit and didn't see anything obvious. Sound was working with files on my computer that were being played. I'll poke around some more this evening and hopefully I can get it fixed.
Again, thanks for all your help.
