I am running kodi on a raspberry pi 3 and when I installed the nextpvr addon I get an error message saying unknown error occurred and the add on could not be loaded. I have nextpvr on my windows back end installed and running as a server client. does anyone know what might be causing this error in kodi.

I replied on your thread on the NextPVR forums. The logs showed your RPi is unable to resolve this "rtech-pc" hostname. Try the IP address instead.

I switched it to the IP and I am getting the same error

Your new logs still show it using the hostname.

it should be changed now. I must have backed out of the menu instead of hiting ok.

To save me having the conversation in both places, lets just continue the discussion on your NextPVR forum post.

Its now using the address 192.168.0.1, but its unable to connect to a NextPVR server on that address. So most likely either, you've got the IP address wrong, or you've got firewall software blocking the incoming requests.

Are you use about 192.168.0.1? That's usually the type of address that'd be used by a router.
