nextpvr/nextpvr_amd64 repository overview

⁠NextPVR

NextPVR is a personal video recorder application, with the goal making it easy to watch or record live TV, and provides great features like series recordings, artwork, web scheduling etc.

This docker image will provide a backend for use on Intel devices running a 64bit distribution, such as the LibreELEC. It supports IPTV or HDHomeRun devices on this platform. With additional docker command line, DVB/ATSC tuners can also be used.

⁠Install/Upgrade

docker pull nextpvr/nextpvr_amd64:stable

⁠Running NextPVR

docker run -d \
    --name nextpvr \
    --volume /home/graeme/config:/config \
    --volume /home/graeme/videos:/recordings \
    --volume /home/graeme/videos:/buffer \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    --publish 8866:8866 \
    --publish 16891:16891/udp \
    nextpvr/nextpvr_amd64:stable

If you're using an older legacy HDHomeRun, you'll also need a couple more parameters (replacing 192.168.1.51 with your host's IP address):

    --env HOST_IP=192.168.1.51 \
    --publish 8026:8026/udp \

In this example:

1. the /config directory in the container will map to the users ~/config directory
   
2. the /recordings directory the container will map to the users ~/videos directory
   
3. the /buffer directory in the container will map to the users ~/videos directory
   
4. the local port 8866 will mapped to port 8866 in the container. NextPVR has historically used port 8866, so exposing it as port 8866 allows apps like Kodi to continue to access it easily.

⁠Using NextPVR

In addition to the web app, other popular ways to access it are via Kodi, or the our iOS / Android apps in their respective app stores. For more information see https://nextpvr.com/download.html⁠
