I was wondering what the working options for LCD's (2x20) on 1.4.7 are these days. I see iMon plugin with LCD Smartie is one option reading from a text file. Are there other working options for a non-MCE PC I can try?
I would like it to display what's playing now in PVRX2, and during standby what/when the next recording(s) are going to be, if that is possible.
I have just installed NPVR for the first time, having been a GBPVR user for years.
I have followed the instructions to get everything up and running, and am now happily recording from freesat and freeview.
However... for some reason, PostProcessing.bat just doesnt want to run. I have tried putting just a very simple line in there:
echo %date%,%time% - PostProcessing.bat invoked on %1 recorded from channel %2 >>processing.log
but am getting nothing at all. Nothing do to with PostProcessing.bat appears in any of the logs (see attached).
Any thoughts ?
I've seen a couple of posts about Blackgold cards recently, and I am impressed with their new offerings; the BGT3620 dual DVBT/T2 and BGT3595 dual DVB S/S2 and dual DVB-T.
The current Hauppauge range looks a bit dated in comparison - the Nova HDS2 seems to be the only DVBS2 card and is only single tuner, their quad tuner card supports neither DVBS2 nor DVBT2.
Sure the BG cards are more expensive, but still cheaper than 2x Nova HDS2 or 2x DVBT2 sticks (which are not branded Hauppauge anyway).
However my only experience of a non-Hauppauge card is the Compro S350, which is less than impressive. Highest priority is robust support in GBPVR / NPVR, which is where the Compro lets me down and the Hauppauge have always been excellent. So I wondered if any owners of BG cards can report on their use in GBPVR - do they scan OK for example?
first of all nice peace of SW. Now to my problem I can not get the right channels then I scan my DVB-S card. I can recieve to satelites thats why I have disque. But I only want to see the channels on ASTRA. In the past with gbpvr I used the attached INI that worked fine for me.
Any clue what I have to but into lof1, lof switch and lof2? I made a "X" at diseqc with my configuration?
Can I make a homebrew list, like the list I have attached under npvr?
tnx
I just donated some money towards my Cousin's B-Day present. In fact donated is not quite right.... I helped search for a front end for his MythTV Set Up. Of course I was not happy about this, I don't do Linux anyway. But if I did even understand Linux how does this look?
I had some free time this weekend so I thought I'd see if I could get PlayOn working to the NMT from the NPVR and it is working out pretty well.
Basically the Universe plugin uses UPnP (via Microsoft COM) to find content and then it uses UPnP URL's to stream. From the NMT it is easy I just tell it a new URL and voila. I do expect to have it working on the MVP too. From the PC it is a little more challenging because I can't play http in NPVR but I can launch ActiveMovie or wmplayer etc.
Is there any interest in this from anyone? I am looking for people with PlayOn installed (that is the UPnP service I showed) to try it out, but other UPnP services should work. I have also used Twonky
After recording I convert the MPG files to another format. The conversion works well but ever so often - perhaps 10% of the time - the original file is not deleted, even though that option is selected.
This is creating a space issue for me, so I'd like to know if a) this is a known issue, and b) if there's any workaround. I know the simple answer is don't convert and buy more disk capacity, but I'm at to 2 TB on this machine now and would have to go to 4 TB if I didn't convert.
Thanks,
(Unfortunately I don't have access to this machine at present, so can't provide any log files.)
which means I have a single PCI Express card, 2 x DVB T and 2 x DVB S Tuners. This card also features support for analague input. I have replaced a PVR350 card with one of these....
It's deteched it in NPVR and shown me four tuners, but I'm not able to configure the analague support.
I know NPVR should autodetect but I'm not sure how to configure for the analogue support ? Are you able to help ?
I've been using a dual core ION Atom with Win 7 and NVPVR and its starting to get sluggish. It has 2 gig of memory and from time to time runs utorrent in the background but apart from that it is dedicated to NPVR.
It plays TV (including BBC HD) fine it the laggyness with the remote when moving through the menus that is the problem.
I suppose a move back to XP would fix it but I absolutely love the EVR renderer.
Does anyone have any idea if say an install of Win 7 home basic would be quicker Or how about the 32 bit version would that be faster than the 64 bit that I have installed currently.
I'm trying to make a LCD/VFD interface plugin for all iMon.
Problem is that the API should be written in C++...
I already got the code for IEventNotification up and running but only in c#...
Would anybody care to help me out (short) converting this code to c++ code?
I've been trying all day but sinds I'm an embedded programmer, no luck...
Also searched in the forum, downloaden source code from the wiki... still crap...
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using NUtility;
using NUtility.Base;
using NUtility.Controls;
namespace nPVR_iMON_API
{
public class TestEventNotify : IEventNotification
{
//
public TestEventNotify()
{
Logger.Debug("nPVR_iMON_API: Testing; Debug Message System...");
Logger.Error("nPVR_iMON_API: Testing; Error Message System...");
Logger.Info("nPVR_iMON_API: TestEventNotify v" + this.GetType().Assembly.GetName().Version.ToString() + " called by 'nPVR_iMON_API'-plugin");
EventBus.GetInstance().AddListener(this);
}
public void Notify(string eventType, object eventText)
{
try
{
Logger.Debug("nPVR_iMON_API: EventType; " + eventType.ToString());
Logger.Debug("nPVR_iMON_API: EventText; " + eventText.ToString());
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.Error("nPVR_iMON_API: Exception Message; " + ex.Message);
Logger.Error("nPVR_iMON_API: Exception; " + ex.ToString());
}
}
}
}
I already have this:
Code:
using namespace System::Text;
using namespace NUtility;
using namespace NUtility::Base;
using namespace NUtility::Controls;
using namespace std;
public ref class cTestEventNotify : public IEventNotification // Defining the class
{
public:
cTestEventNotify(); // Constructor
//~cTestEventNotify(); // Destructor
virtual void Notify(System::String^ eventType,
System::Object^ eventText);
};
///Constructors can accept arguments, but this one does not
cTestEventNotify::cTestEventNotify()
{
Logger::Debug("nPVR_iMON_API: Testing; Debug Message System...");
Logger::Error("nPVR_iMON_API: Testing; Error Message System...");
//Logger::Info("nPVR_iMON_API: TestEventNotify v" + this::GetType()::Assembly.GetName()::Version::ToString() + " called by 'nPVR_iMON_API'-plugin");
//EventBus::GetInstance();
//EventBus::AddListener(this);
};
void cTestEventNotify::Notify(System::String^ eventType,
System::Object^ eventText)
{
};
// This is the main DLL file.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "nPVR_iMON_API_cpp.h"
//cTestEventNotify fTestEventNotify;
But I can't seem to figure out how to convert the following lines into cc++ code:
Code:
[COLOR=darkred]EventBus.GetInstance().AddListener(this);[/COLOR]
Logger.Info("nPVR_iMON_API: TestEventNotify v" + this.GetType().Assembly.GetName().Version.ToString() + " called by 'nPVR_iMON_API'-plugin");
also, am I working the correct way? Declaring the entire class in the header and just create an instance int the code file?
