madlec 0 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Hi, I'm not sure whether this is an Emby Premier issue or a Next PVR plugin issue, most likely user error.... I have recently upgraded to Premier and installed the plugin, but I can only access and play recordings, the Live TV option isn't appearing on the Emby Home Screen. I have the latest version of the plugin, and the latest version of Next PVR 5. Both Emby Server and Next PVR are running on the same machine, and I have tried reconfiguring the Next PVR plugin to reflect the IP address of the server rather than "localhost". Apart from that, the rest of the settings are default. (port, and PIN) I have triggered an update to the TV Guide Data and looked in the Emby Server logs (attached), and I can see it is communicating with Next PVR and pulling data. Does anyone know what I have missed? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1560 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Just to check, you have NextPVR plugin 3.6.0.0 ? You seem to have forgotten to actually attach any logs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlec 0 Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 I have now actually attached the emby log... Yes, the plugin is 3.6.0.0 embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1560 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Can't think of much really. You said you have something like this - I guess NextPVR is fully working - it plays stuff and has a guide ? Other than that, its usually just updating the guide in Emby (under Scheduled Tasks), generally just after NextPVR has updated its guide, which defaults to 2.44am for me. Just refreshing and restarting whatever you can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlec 0 Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Yep, that's basically it. I am using Next PVR via its own website at the moment, nut wanted to tie it in with Emby. I have restarted the Emby server a few times since installing the plugin, and also the Next PVR service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1560 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 And yet Live TV doesn't show up under My Media or on the home screen at all. Have you looked under Settings > Home Screen to see its enabled under one of the Home Screen sections ? I imagine it would appear automatically though. Or under Users > your account > Profile and hence Feature Access 'Allow Live TV access'. Again I imagine it would default to allowed though. Other than that, probably need a dev like @@Luke or @@sub3 or @@emveepee to hopefully have a look (hope I got those names correct). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Luke 37098 Posted May 19, 2020 Solution Share Posted May 19, 2020 Have you checked that your Emby user is granted permission to Live TV features? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emveepee 112 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 How may channels do you have? Emby database loading from NextPVR is very inefficient and can easily take 10 minutes or longer even with my 200 channels. It is meant to be done in off hours with the EPG update.

Spaceboy 2494 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Use the m3u method. Far better imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlec 0 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 As I expected, user error. I haven't removed any access from my account, so assumed that when I upgraded to Premier, the permissions would simply be unlocked. I've now got all the Live TV options on my home screen, and will test when I can. I did think about the m3u route, but I already had the hardware to get the Next PVR option working. Thanks guys.

emveepee 112 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 The m3u option is definitely not better if you want to use Kodi. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madlec 0 Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 Hi Tex, I used the info from another thread (I can't remember which one off hand) to create a postepgupdate script in Next PVR to trigger an EPG update in Emby. That may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emveepee 112 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 My program to trigger the EPG update task only works with the addon and the addon is not supported. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
