I am have a nightmare of a time trying to set the alpha level for a particular rectangle transparent in a region that is managed by many elements.

Is there an order of priority that the layers are applied?

Is the last item in the last active Element in the last RenderList always applied last or are there other factors?

Do items in the Element override the Element's attributes?

Does the Background Element get added first or last?

Finally what is the difference between alpha"##" and using fillcolour="#ARGB" and does this affect priority?

Sorry for all the questions, but I can see why Hairy gave up on skinning the trial and error is driving me crazy.

I'm using N-PVR 2.0.3 on a XP Pro PC that is not on 24/7. If the EPG Update Hour = 2 and the PC is off then, when will the EPG update? Will it update when the PC is turned on? If not, how can I get EPG Update to happen without leaving the PC on 24/7?

Thanks for your time!

PS...I have a Windows Schedule Task setup to run mc2xml.exe everytime the PC is turned on and that appears to be working fine.

I'm stuck with a Server / Client install. Server works fine. Client is a laptop, but it must work, because it did with GBPVR.

For this error, I modfied the hosts files on both C & S by taking away the ::1 - No Change??

OK, I've been digging around in the forums for quite a while now, and maybe I'm just being dense, but I can't seem to figure out how to get comskip support on my MVP with NPVR! With GBPVR, if I paused a video, you could see where the commercial breaks were, and I could press the play button to manually skip the commercial I was in the middle of. I've bumped into several threads talking about the postprocessing.bat file to get compskip to process the recorded videos, but even there I'm not certain of exactly where to copy the comskip.exe and supporting files.

Does anyone have it working with your MVP, and how did you get it going?

Thanks,
Kevin

Title says it all.

Server has the PVR150 with the Filters installed - Do I ALSO need to Install the Hauppage SoftPVR Filters on the Client?

While trying to add a second video card to supplement my ATI All-inWonder HD, I got a message when I tried Live TV as a test: Unable to locate filter tuner(ATI BDA Digital Tuner). I went to Settings and Devices and this is how the card was shown.

So I apparently did something to "Win XP" or drivers. Can I tell NPVR to "go to that card" again?

I think I was trying something "unworkable"....a second video card is apparently not "allowed." AMD/ATI said the AIW won't work properly with a second card in the system.

Oh well...

Thanks in advance! NPVR works great when a semi-noobie isn't throwing curves at it!

I use a Kword ATSC 115 PCI card. Everytime I use device set-up and scans the channels it crashes. It get's through a partial scan and then crashes out and stops scanning.
It keeps saying something like JIT debugger. then crashes out/
And help or Idea on this.

am I configured incorrectly, but NPVR seems to discard the EPG data for the HD channels.

Hi,

Can anyone advise. Since I installed a new graphics card, I am getting interference on one of my DVB-T multiplexes. It is Mux 2 that I lose ( C33- 569.8MHz ).

- My graphics card is an ASUS ATI HD 5450.
- My DVB-T card is a Hauppauge Nova-T-500 PCI (new model, solid state tuners).

The TV tuner actually sits at 90 degrees to the graphics card due to the orientation of the PC case (it's a Dell). It works fine if the lid of the case is off, but as soon as the lid goes on the DVB-T signal breaks up.

My solution to continued reception is to put a 23dB amp on the input of the DVB-T card and add a sheet of tin foil to the back of the graphics card to give it a ground plane.

Anyone have any better ideas?

Thanks
