I'm running N-PVR 1.5.33 and had two USB DVB-T tuners working,
a Nova-T and a cheap generic one.
These showed up in the Devices window as :
WinTV Nova-T Stick DVB-T Tuner (Dev1 Path0)
USB DVB-T TV Tuner
Today I got a dual tuner to replace the generic one, its a Nova-TD stick (model no. 01273)
That shows up in the Devices window as
Hauppauge WinTV MOD7700 DVB-T Tuner (Dev2 Path0)
I expected it to show up twice. There doesn't seem to be a way of telling NPVR that it should look for another tuner.
As the new tuner came with a CD, I used that to update the drivers and re-boot the machine.
The old listings in the device window are still there but show NO in the PRESENT column.
The two new listings are:
Hauppauge WinTV MOD7700 DVB-T Tuner (Dev1 Path0)
WinTV Nova-T Stick DVB-T Tuner (Dev2 Path0)
i.e. still only two tuners showing.
I have restarted NPVR after every attempt to change anything.
I have searched in the forums but can only find how to configure dual tuners in GB-PVR, nothing which applies to NPVR.
could some kind soul point my old brain in the direction for the keyboard entry needed to bring N-PVR back from Full Screen to Windowed mode? I bet it is on a thread somewhere but I haven't found it!
I either knew it and have now forgotten, or never knew but know want to know
I bought Leadtek WinFast DTV 1800 H on Win XP platform and my picture freezes, or to be more precist lose frames.
Also, how can I start teletext?
Can you please help me with some advice?
How do I configure multirec using MDPlugins in GBPVR. I have set it up and its working in NPVR but I am also trying to get it in GBPVR as I have not yet completly transferred to NPVR.
Setting it up in NPVR only required to add all the MDplugin stuff in the folders created by the config
Code:
Hauppauge WinTV 885 Alt BDA Tuner_Demod #1-1
Hauppauge WinTV 885 Alt BDA Tuner_Demod #1-2
However, in GBPVR no folders are created. How do I set it up in the MDPluginfolder in GBPVR to have more than one instance per device?
Currently I have it working for one instance (all files are directly in MDPlugin folder) also in GBPVR but that does not allow me to multirec on my DVB-S tuner.
I'm not able to watch Live TV, and I believe this is because of:
2010-10-19 08:28:50.156 VERBOSE [1] GBPVR.Backend.Common.GbpvrException: No channels have been set up. Please run the Configuration utility and setup the EPG source. Use the 'Update EPG' button to force the system to import the latest set of channel and programme information.
But.. I don't have an EPG source. There is a selection for "None" so, I assume not having one is OK.
To scan for channels, I tried tuningAssistant, but it fails to find the crossbar. I have two AverTV M150 Analog capture cards. I downloaded the MPV and MPA decoders, and registered them.
It seems I'm missing something rather basic, but can't determine what. Was thinking to upgrade to NPVR, but may have same issues, as there are hints that the setup is quite similar.
I occasionally have problems with re-encoding video that I capture on my HD-PVR and I believe the source to be with the channel change (I use USB-UIRT). The reason that I believe this is that it appears whenever the channel/program prior to the change is 720p, the entire video shows up in TMPGEnc 4.0 at that resolution regardless of whether the targeted channel/program was actually 1080p. The end result is that TMPGEnc crops the desired portion from 1080p to 720p even though WMP and Videolan render it properly. A temporary fix is to demux the video with txMuxer and cut out the first few seconds (the channel change).
I would like to avoid this extra step, so I'm curious to know whether it's possible to have GBPVR delay the start of recording until after the channel change has already occurred. Thank you for any input that you can provide.
I've just installed Win 7 64bit and imported the recordings from my old 1.4.7 setup. I've just about got it running ok except when I select the recordings menu.
I have to wait anywhere between 30-60 seconds before my list of recordings appear
I had a look at the logs & saw this;-
'Unexpected error saving scheduled recording: System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteException: The database file is locked database is locked'
I see this has been reported before, did anyone find away around it?
