Just playing around with the new Technisat CableStar HD 2. Setup and configuration went fine so far, i can view SD and HD channels (unencrypted) without any problems.
I just did a new channelsearch and ran epg update. A few frequencies was scanned without any problems, then just *plop* a message windows appears "nPVR just crashed..."
Ok, here are the logs and the crashdumpfile. This is the first dvb related crash on this system.
A nice simple wish this one, and hopefully it's on your todo list anyway. Can we have the equivalent of GBPVR's -direct "Live TV" command line option added in a future build?
At this point in time I really need to know if anyone has Horizontal scrolling issues with the way it displays. It should NOT have to scroll horizontally. If it does please let me know.
I would need to know
a) the browser and version you are displaying on
b) the screen resolution of your display
I dont know why, but sometimes my NPVR freezes up everytime I try to watch live TV or open the System page from the system plugin. I attached my logs.
Edit: it also happens after accessing the settings box. There doesn't seem to be any way to fix it other than rebooting. I also noticed now that the "Whats New" recordings screen was not updated, but after rebooting it updated and shows that all my recordings for the last day failed with "Recording service not running at recording time".
I have just tried to get my pch going again. I am on Npvr with the latest release. I used the NMTInstall2. Install went fine (I think). Everything is in the default locations. (Vista). From the NMT it gives me the Press to launch GBPVR screen. When I press it I get a white screen with "mount mounting \\192.168.1.1" and it dies there. It totally locks up and I have to pull the power to get it going. I searched the survival guides and forum, but could not find the answer. I am sure it is something dumb I did, but HELP! (Please) :confused:
I've got a Hauppauge HVR-3000 DVB-T which is listed as a "Dual DVB" card in the Wiki. Does this mean I can record two FreeView channels simultaneously, say BBC1 and Channel 4? If so, how do I set this up? At present I can record one channel OK but when I try to record another program it chokes and says there's a conflict.
I've trawled the forums but haven't found a suitable answer (or I've just missed it). A simple walkthrough of the steps required would be most useful!
Yesterday I had the system working well. 3 cards (HVR1600, HVR 2250 dual, and PVR 150) all recording and saving on a total of 4 satellite feeds.
Today, with no changes made other than a change in the destination folder for saving, all work except the 1600.
The log seems to indicate an issue with the WinTV 418 Encoder, but I don't understand what could be happening or how to fix it so it doesn't happen again.
Many of my shows record with the first 5-10 seconds cut off, and catch the first few seconds of the following show at the end of the recording. My HTPC's time is perfect down to the second, which means some of the broadcasters' clocks are a bit ahead or they're doing it on purpose for some reason. Either way, it's irritating. Pre-Padding is absolutely NOT a valid solution for this problem; padding doesn't work a great deal of the time, and I don't need a full minute anyway, just a few seconds.
I'd like to just have NVPR 'pretend' that the current time is actually 10 seconds later than it actually is. That way all recordings would start 10 seconds earlier, and end 10 seconds earlier.
Would it be terribly difficult to add a Time Offset parameter whereby whenever NPVR gets the current time for any reason, the Time Offset is added or subtracted accordingly? I know it could cause problems if the offset gets large, but for small values it shouldn't be an issue.
