I just upgraded to Windows 7 and NPVR 2.0.3. Have done a bunch of Windows udpates and just using what MS supplied for the nvidia graphics card.

The NPVR install went fine (best ever compared to XP/GBPVR) and everything pretty much works out of the box. BUT ... NPVR does not have any video when playing recordings or live TV. The sound is there, but no video. MCE is working fine.

I have attached the logs. Thanks heaps.

New dual tuner card. All configured with nPVR.
It comes with a remote control.
How do I configure this to work - is their software I need to run?

It has two buttons at the top - MCE and TV?

I tried installing the Hauppauge instructions here to no avail.

I used to be a GBPVR user and have only recently rediscovered the project as NPVR! I see great things and can't wait to see what you do with it! Right now I'm trying to do something a little unorthodox so let me explain my setup:

I have a HDHomerun that serves my TV channels as streams. I got one because I wanted all of my connected devices to have access to tv content without requiring tuner hardware. The obvious choice would be to use GBPVR in client mode. After trying it out, I discovered that it was way too choppy on client computers. Likely, this is because the host computer is reencoding the live stream and then trying to transmit it to the client on an already congested network. Could you consider adding special behavior to the npvr client code such that if the user is tuning a channel from a HDHomerun then it will just transmit the stream url to the client and the client can pull the stream directly. Hopefully that makes sense.

Until such a feature exists, I'm trying to cobble together a workaround. I am syncing the program folder and the database folder between all clients. This works well for syncing settings, database, and tvxml.xml but one thing it doesn't do is share the channel list between all clients (which is desirable in my case since all computers are identical and they are sharing an identical source, the HDHomerun). How do I transfer (or sync) the channel list from one computer to another? Secondly, is there a better way of doing this that I'm missing?

I installed a PCH2 with an analog TV. Everything works: shares, script, but only up to the gray screen saying "mvmcx2 is loaded killall: gay".

Here is the syntax check. Note: I do not use GB-PVR, and renamed the HTML in the mvpmc folder.

I am having problems getting NPVR to automatically update my tv guide listing. I use schedules direct. I can do it manually though. Logs are attached.

Unless I've missed it somewhere, it would be really nice to have the ability to stop, pause etc on a right click whilst playing an audio track. The same applies to Pictures, a right click to skip on to the next/previous picture and a random mode, would be lovely.

Hi there, I just upgraded from GBPVR to NPVR and I'm having problems right off the bat, it's not detecting my card at all. I've tried updating drivers/reinstalling NPVR and it just refuses to detect it. I haven't had any problems on GBPVR with it detecting my device. Anyone know what's wrong?

Sub,
It's getting close to Easter which is when I normally throw a donation your way...do I recall a thread a while back where you said that PayPal confiscated the funds in your account? If so then: a) I'm not going mad b) is the issue resolved?

I'd hate to inadvertently line paypals pockets.

Hi sub,

would it be possible to add the "Rating" to the cached epg event xml inside the scheduled recordings?

Thanks,

been away awhile, whats the best plugins for a large video library for NPVR? (assuming there are some?)

would like to handle both tv shows and movies and download metadata from thetvdb.com and themoviedb.org (or alternatives) and just work with little configuration and quick automate updates.

TIA
