Hi
I have the Freecom USB stick working great with GBPVR,
Is there any way of getting the IR remote that came with the Freecom to work in GBPVR?
Thanks
Hi,
how did you get the USB to work, have you used alternative drivers? I've had no joy so far.
I'm using one too. FWIW it worked first time using the Yakumo drivers on two machines as a fresh install. I couldn't get it working on the machine on which I had already installed the Freecom software, don't know why.
The driver would appear to load except that no channels could be found, the scan would just go through quickly with nothing found.
If it wasn't for the Yakumo drivers and the forums there discussing other software, I wouldn't have even found GB-PVR
David.
I had that issue too.
Seems to be OK if you plug the Freecom into another USB port - you get the chance to specify what drivers to use again.
I use the Freecom to record shows in MPG. I then view these remotely via a Kiss DP-1504. Works a treat.
GBPVR is by far the best PVR I've tried.

I followed the instructions in the Freecom thread in this forum.
Using the Yakumo BDA drivers.
Same here. I followed all the advice about uninstalling the Freecom drivers from my PC and switch USB ports. I used the Cyberlink muxer and it all worked a treat.
The only problem I had was that it was recording the files in pvr-ms format and I needed them to be mpg files so that I can stream them via my Pinnacle media server. However, now that I know how to do that I'm very happy! GBPVR beats the pants off of the rubbish software that Freecom supplies!

I have managed to get the Remote control that comes with the Freecom DVB-T USB stick to work. In C:\Program Files\DVB-T\DVB-T USB DEVICE there is a file called IRMAP.TXT. This maps the received IR codes to Keypresses. Edit this file to assign keys that GBPVR uses. Here is my file contents:

All found by trial and error!
CloseIR.exe seems to stop the IR receive software and IR_Server.exe starts it.
N.B. IT DOES NOT WORK IF YOU HAVE NUMLOCK ON - it always returns Numlock!
Hope this helps someone else.
