Newb here trying NPVR for the first time. I followed guides on the site but could be possible that I missed something. I brought in all my analog channels using Schedules direct and the seem to function properly with the correct coloration and such. After scanning in QAM I noticed that some channels are perfectly fine and some have a thick yellow vertical line running through the middle of the picture and some ghosting effects. My guess is the codecs but I'm not quite sure what to do with them. Used the SAF 5.0 codec pack for starters, then uninstalled and tried CCCP. It got even worse! I'm using onboard video and maybe that is my problem. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. There is a couple different logs in my NPVR folder(not sure which to show you) so I'll list them and the SAF log. Thanks in advance!
looking at getting another Quad LNB for a spare dish I have. I don't yet have any DVB-S2 capable cards to experiment with my current Quad LNB (which was a good make and quite expensive a few years back, £20 ish).
Question for now is I see some pretty cheap LNB's on fleabay (around £6) described as HD Ready and then some others (much more pricey around £23.00) described as DVB-S2 compatible.
I get a very good strength Satellite signal from Astra2 & Eurobird where I am located.
Question
Any need to fork out for the more expensive option? Is this just a bells & whistles marketing ploy where a good old cheap and cheerful LNB will suffice or is a better quality LNB going to help me out?
My PCH A100 has stopped playing video from my GBPVR server.
It will play files stored on it's HDD and the menu functions of gbpvr are working fine, just when you select play the screen goes black for a few seconds and retudn to the recordings library.
I have updated the firmware of the PCH and run pvrx2 on a networked PC which works fine so the files and gbpvr setup all seems OK.
UiList has three views: "list", "horizontal_icon" and "covers", with each type being controlled via the skin.
How can I expand this and have multiple views within each type? Eg, Videos gives you a list down the left-hand side of the screen. What if I wanted that *and* another view that was a list down the right-hand side.
I'm assuming it'll be via multiple skins, but can you (and how do you) switch between them dynamically at runtime (when the user would press "view")?
I've been using GBPVR to record from my s-video input for some time... Its just the most stable program I've found to record from my analog inputs. (I was at version 1.4, I believe.) I saw that I've missed a few updates!!!
Anyway, under devices, it recognizes my Vixs PureTV ATSC Tuner, but there are no options for recording from my analog inputs.
I just the latest SearchLite with the addon for Genres but it crashes on me, I get an error message saying it cannot find the genres.list (but I have copied it into the correct folder) and after that the application crashes and reports it cannot open the nvr database.
I am running latest version of nPVR (including all the patches in the latest patch-package). Have not found a way to capture the output from Microsoft error reporting, I found it creates a DMP-file in a temp directory but that file is locked and will disappear after it is sent to Microsoft or if you choose not to send it. Do you need more information Martin?
Here is a copy from commandline (what I did), the genres.list is placed in the directory from here I executed the commad:
Code:
