I hope I have this in the right place. I’m wondering if anyone who knows NextPVR wouldn’t mind working with someone (me) to get NextPVR working right. One of the problems I’m having is the EPG. I believe I have it working right, but when I go to look at the TV listings, it just shows “No Information”, on all the channels I can receive. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. If anyone can help me out with this, thank you.

I would think the NextPVR Forums would be a more appropriate place to ask:

Good Luck,

@CWallace - I would and I did post it in NextPVR 2 days ago and no one answer it, so I figure someone from here could help me as a lot of you use NextPVR.  
Thanks

From where are you sourcing your guide data? Looking at your post on the NextPVR forums it seems they made some suggestions and pointed you to some resources for obtaining EPG data (if you for some reason don’t want to use Schedules Direct).

I actually a newbie to this world of video and stuff. What other options do I have to receive the best EPG that is out there to use with NextPVR?

The NextPVR folks suggest Schedules Direct. They support direct integration if you have an SD account (Settings → Guide → Add SD Channel Lineup

Otherwise you’re on your own to find an accurate XMLTV EPG source. I think they support pulling OTA EPG data on Windows, but especially in North America that’s problematic due to the (extremely) limited data available (or non-existent).
