A similar server in windows that would then transfer the image to, say a popcornhour, would be a great feature.
Now I can relate that it wouldnt be easy, but, since the popcorn hour has no bonjour support (that I'm aware of) it would be next to impossible to do it there.
My problem is that my recordings show up in the correct directory, but there is nothing in the file (0 mbs). I cannot get live TV to show up in PVR as well.. Here is the path I have been following to create this mess.
installed NPVR along with GB-PVR ver 1.4.7 and couldn't get it to work ... hasd a hard time getting my channels to show up. So I uninstalled everything and went back to GB-PVR 1.4.7 and during that also changed my media hard drive to a 1.5TB WD green drive which was formatted as a dynamic drive, simple partition.
Ever since all that my pvr hasn't functioned properly. My last attempt at correcting it was to uninstall/re install everything (MS Runtime, etc) again.
As far as my level of technical ability goes, I know enough to really screw things up, but not enough to figure out how to fix them So it would not be too far fetched to find out I have inadvertently deleted something, installed something or corrupted something that I am not aware of.
Due to severe resume/skipping issues when using .ts files I've decided to transcode all recordings to .mpg using postprocessing.bat. (the transcoded file retains the same filename) This works perfectly using the default npvr recordings plugin as it just 'falls back' to recognising the .mpg if the .ts doesn't exist. All metadata etc. remains intact.
I was hoping the same might happen for TVrecordings but it doesn't and the transcoded file doesn't show up. Is there any way to make this happen?
I newer used one. I had a Sinclair Specrum that had the Basic commands on the keys. I did some programming at that time, but I ended up working with hardware installations at Intergraph.
But it is fun learning some programming again by exploring PHP.
I'm having difficlty adding a DigitalNow Quad DVB-T tuner into the bda.ini file and would appreciate some help.
In graphedit, the 4 tuners appear under BDA Source Filters only (no entries under BDA Receiver Components). When I add one of these source filters to the graph, it has only one pin (Input0).
How should I configure bda.ini ?
I'm using GBPVR 1.4.7 (in NPVR the tuner is natively detected and works fine, but I prefer using GBPVR)
is anybody else seeing CBS last few nights being dead? right about midnight it dies...
it's like they don't want me to see the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson...
[tonight it died exactly as the program was starting..]
i double checked and it was same on both my ant. atsc and directv dish...and even checked with antenna straight to tv...black screen no signal..
i had 2 recordings fail...or rather they just stopped recording as the signal disappeared..
no notices of testing or emergency broadcast anything either...
just wondering if other people/cities had same experience with that channel..

My system has suddenly developed a new problem, apparently only yesterday. When I try to manually cancel recordings, it sometimes behaves strangely. Sometimes it cancels normally, but often will not cancel the recording until as much as five minutes later. This causes a number of related problems (for example, starting other recordings), and the problem may or may not relate to a recording being skipped entirely overnight.
Despite the fact that the recording remains in the "pending" list, the light on the DVB-T tuner extinguishes immediately, so I don't believe it is a driver problem. The strangest thing about this is that I have performed a full restore of my system drive (including the GBPVR folder) from a backup more than two weeks old, when I was not having any such problems; I only retained my current CONFIG.XML, GBPVR.DB3, and some batch files I have developed myself. This system restore has had no effect on the problem described.
Attached are some logs from soon after I experienced the problem.
I should have said what "Blaster.exe" works, I want to use the IRBlaster from the 2250 to change the STB channels...
Am now trying to use my 2250 for IR Blasting my Motorola DCT2224 STB for changing channels (under Win7 / nPVR 1.5.33)
So far, under: Device Setup/Hauppage WinTV-7164 Analog Capture I have tried the following executables:
1) WinTV7/TVServer/Blast.exe (Args: {channel} )
2) HaupBlast.exe (Args: {channel} ) (from previous GB-PVR installed on WinXP-SP2 box - which BTW worked flawlessly on same STB)
neither of these .exe's so much as flashes a red light at the STB - but I worry that the 'args' are not correct - but have found no alternative)
I ran the WinTV7/BlastCfg.exe (v 7.3.28035) and to confirm electrical connection, the "IR Channel Test - Send" does push a red flash at the STB (yes. the blaster xmitter is right up against the STB receiver)
However, proceeding to "Learning Action" section the result is failure due to "Remote does not support toggle bit - retry learning" this was a never-ending loop. In a phone call to Hauppauge Support, they walked me through the same steps - but no joy, and no answers.
Being unable to control the STB for channel changing is a show stopper here.
Anyone out there running the HVR-2250 by blasting their STB ??
I'd really appreciate any light you might be able to shed on this.
