Using cyberlink PDVD 11 decoder from SAF6, skipping forward on a UK freeview HD recording results in the image becoming corrupted (massive pixalation) about 70% of the time. The only way to resolve it is to exit back to the menu and then resume.

Any ideas as to the probably cause or suggestions for alternative decoders to try?

Hi, as i have a HVR 2250, i know it has a hardware encoder.

I assuming this means its commanded to save data then sent a stop command when its it needs.

However the resulting file plays about 20 mins, then after this i cant get it to continue to play, even with VLC, this leads me to believe the actual file is damaged somehow (also meaning nPVR cant skip to the place you stopped last time as VLC cant do it either).

There’s no antivirus scanning in the save directory.

So first question is (as i never had this problem with PVR150 cards) how do i change the "quality" settings for the card?
Next, would a bad cable signal do this (ive seen that before with the PVR150, glitch in the video sometimes do over the saved file, once skipped it was fine, however i cant skip past this error, all the video is in the file though).

If i get time i might import this in to a video editing software and see if it finds any problems.

I don't *need* this, but it would make configuring the AudioAdjust plugin a bit easier for users...

Could you expose the list of available audio renderers (that I assume requires some native code to determine) as a nice simple list/array of strings somewhere, eg:

This is the (new) support thread for AutoRefresh, an NPVR plugin designed to automatically switch your graphics card's video output refresh rate to match the content rate of the video file being played.

If posting bug reports, please ensure to include the log files from either C:\Users\Public\NPVR\Logs or C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\NPVR\Logs.

Is anyone working on a writeup of Comskip for the wiki? If not, I'll (at least) port and update the old Comskip page from the gbpvr wiki.

wiki says "to do", so I ask here...

These skin things - are they a sub standard (sub as in the boss rather than below standard) or are they based on some generic skinning idea?
If generic, does anyone have a link?.

I am trying to tweak, very slightly the default skin to optimise it for my TV via NMT. Is there a "comment out" facility? when playing with other stuff, I prefer to comment out the line I am tweaking and fiddle with a copy - I can't see anything like that in the supplied skins.

Are there any tools to help view changes to avoid my slow hunt and peck style of Edit, Save, Npvr, TV Guide, Sigh, Exit ??
any ideas most welcome.

I succesfuly installed TV Listings some time back (after forgetting to activate the plugin in settings:o), but still haven't been able to convince the better half to use it.

So it's been a while since I know the plugin worked, and now, when it doesn't, and I have no idea what might have changed in the interim.. Needless to say, standard TV Guide still works, so the EPG is loading, but I don't understand the error below..

For some time I have had a problem with NRecord stopping about once a week overnight usually at the end of the EPG scan. The easy way to get NPVR back working is to reboot but there is often half a dozen failed recordings by the time I realise there is a problem. Another solution is to Stop then Start the NPVR service which could be put into a batch file with NPVRServiceControl.exe stop then start. What I am looking for is a command to detect if NRecord is running then if not I can restart the NPVR service. This would be so easy in Linux but seems difficult under Windows.

Will a TBS 6981 PCI-E DVB S2 DUAL HD Satellite Tuner TV Card be ok with NPVR?

Im using a USB2 DVB-S device at the mo but im missing some HD channels. (Im in the uk)
