I am trying to setup a client on a Windows7 machine but it can't access the db3 file on the Windows XP server. I have the NPVR folder, under application data of the Windows XP, shared. I can see all other folders on the server from the client just fine. Is there something else I need to change?
Sub, I noticed I can't go back or forward with 0+skip in NPVR like we were able to in GBPVR. Is there a different way of doing it now? If not do you plan on implementing it into NPVR soon. I would use this feature fairly often.
I'm torn between a full rip (ISO, DVD folder) and movie only (AVI, MKV, ...?). Disk space and quality are the considerations. In my initial tests with DVDFab the ISO was 4GB and the video files were around 800mb to 1GB.
Hi, I'm still quite new to the whole PVR game, having started using nPVR about 3 months ago.
nPVR has worked great for me so far, congrats (and Thank You!) to the devs.
I recently switched to hdtv and replaced my 2250 with a Colossus card.
It's working great and the image quality is awesome.
I would like to know how the capture is setup as far as bitrate, resolution, interleaving and framerate are concerned.
If the STBis set to output 720p, will the Colossus produce a 30fps progressive video?
Is it possible to detect image resolution from a components source?
Also there is one issue I cannot figure out so far.
On some channels (not all, and not only hd channels) I periodically get a black screen withthe message "encrypted content" in white lettering appearing for around 5 seconds. Audio continues normally during message. Video resumes normally after the message. After several minutes, it will reappear.
It may be more related to programs than to channels.
My current setup is Cisco 4642 STB, YPbPr to Colossus, DVI from PC to TVs HDMI (Panasonic S30)
Is this message produced by the STB? I could not find anything after some serious googling.
Thanks in advance to anybody who can shed some light on this.
How do I keep the programming information (EPG info, channel number, timeline bar, etc.) from appearing at the bottom of the screen when I am paused using CTRL-Q - it is in the way and most annoying. Thank you.
I finally decided to move from GBPVR to NPVR. I noticed a small glitch with all of my imported shows. When you select each show and it brings up the option to play, the channel icon and channel number in that info screen are incorrect. For all of my imported shows it put the icon and channel number of the first channel in the guide, in my case it is channel 78 MSG. All new recordings have had the correct channel icon and number in that info screen.
I just picked up a second Hauppauge HVR-1800 card off of ebay. It was only $23 including shipping! And it is new and it does work. It is a special version of the card and only has the tuners, the analog one and the digital one. No FM, IR, etc. But it does work just fine, and it arrived only 3 days after I ordered it.
NPVR is marking most of my recordings as 'failed' - status = 3 in the database (table SCHEDULED_RECORDINGS), with reason as 'no errors, but no data delivered....'. However, the recording .ts file is present and plays OK. If I manually change the status to 2, then I can play the recording from NPVR in the normal way.
I've looked at the NRecord log, but cannot see any problems (copy attached covers a number of recordings, all of which were marked as failed).
I'm running NPVR 2.2.6 with cumulative patches R2, plus patch 41 with the CollectEIT flag set to false (I was seeing crashes which this patch seems to have fixed).
My install is client - server with the server running on WHS2003 and PCH and PC clients. The main recording device is a TBS 6984 Quad DVBS2 card.
