I'm experiencing infrequent NRecord.exe crashes with acamd.dll.
I get this in event viewer:
Faulting application NRecord.exe, version 1.0.0.0, time stamp 0x4d6be204, faulting module ACamd.dll, version 0.6.2.0, time stamp 0x4d1dcdcd, exception code 0xc0000417, fault offset 0x0003a967, process id 0x13c4, application start time 0x01cc22fa73b450dd.
Had the same problem (but more frequent) with 0.6.1.8 of acamd.
A bit of searching suggests that exception code 0xc0000417 means
STATUS_INVALID_CRUNTIME_PARAMETER. Sounds like an invalid parameter was passed to a C runtime function.
No trace of the crashes in any of the logs (npvr logs or acamd logs).
I noticed this yesterday but didn't have time to look at it closer. Basically, the TV Guide is 'empty' (no grid and no show details anywhere). Some issue with a KeyNotFoundException...

Recently installed GBPVR on a new motherboard (Asus E35M1-M Pro) with Windows 7. Everyhting seems to be working fine so far, except for one problem...
During playback of a recorded show, playback will suddenly pause. After about 30 seconds it resumes by itself. While PVRX2 is in this unexpected pause it is unresponsive.
There don't seem to be any errors in the logs. Only thing I can see which could be of interest is the following:
Is it possible to add "windows screensaver" to screensaver options? Then there would be a host of options available from windows. I liked GBPVR plugin that allowed this option.
I've just uploaded a new version of the TVListings plugin at the wiki.
Changelog:
Quote:- added new images and different font for selected programme
- added option to use the default schedule popups (to use advanced rules etc.)
- added option to change the sort order of the guides
- added 'Categories' popup that lists all upcoming shows of a genre
- added logic to move the guide to the current time after playback has stopped
- added support for the inset rectangle
- the panel no longer tries to clear the now playing area when the application exits
- added option to disable the panel on the mvp
- on the mvp, the panel no longer tries to call ForceRender() after updateing the panel
- added logic that wraps the first line of the description when a star-rating image overlaps
Please note the following when upgrading:
- NPVR 2.0.3 is necessary
- the new version contains skin changes, so if you're not using the default skin, please wait until your skin officially supports v3.5 of the plugin
- there's no need to overwrite an existing "TV Listings.db" database file during upgrade
- for genres/categories, version 3.1 of the XmltvExtras tool is needed and needs to be run after each epg update, see the wiki page of the utility for details
- by default, the plugin sends information about the next recordings to the 'now playing' notification area on the main screen, this can be configured through the settings form of the plugin
I'm trying to update the next blue skin for tvlistings version 3.5 Beta. I've tried to run xmltvextras to populate the tvlistings database but I seem to be getting an error. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
This is the dos error I get... I'm running WinXP SP3 and npvr 2.0.3 with all update patches.
Code:
C:\Program Files\NPVR>xmltvextras
Error connecting to database: The type initializer for 'System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteFactory' threw an exception.
Exiting.

Does Comskip work on a Client? I have just decided to give Comskip a try anf it appears to work on the server with Bars on the Timeline where it thinks commercials are. However when the same file is run on the client nothing shows on the Timeline.
When watching a ts-file recorded with NPVR on my LG 42LD450N the picture quality is slightly lower than if I'm watching live TV with a cable directly into my television set. The quality is equally low when watching live TV through NPVR on my LG 42". I'm using TerraTec Cinergy HTC USB XS HD as capture device. When watching 720p mkv-files via the pc on my TV the quality is higher.
The picture quality through NPVR looks a bit like when the weather is misty. There is no pixellation or deinterlacing. The colours are fine as well.
On a Danish forum a guy told my that slightly lower quality was to be expected when recording with PVR. Is that true? And if not how can I improve the quality through NPVR?
Lately ive noticed that the audio seems to be choppy during live tv.
however if i hit pause and then take it off pause (so its essentally a recording) the audio is then perfect.
This happens regardless of DVB-S or DVB-T signal - but only on Live TV. Never an issue when viewing a recording.
Im currently using Cyberlink PDVD10 codes for both MPEG2 and H264 decoders.
I seem to recall there being a parameter in the GBPVR menu that was some sort of buffer for live tv. Is there a similar setting for NPVR? if so - could someone enlighten me pretty please
