I have been using GB-PVR to great success for such a long time now that I rarely get into the forums these days, but I did and found out that a new version was about to be ready. Great news indeed!
But I cannot fins a list of what is new and noteworthy anywhere. I guess Sub has deleted that info as it might have been obsolete during the beta releases. But I am still interested in the list to see if I should upgrade now, or wait for a stable release.
Being here for many years now, one re-occurring theme has always been the mapping of remote controls.
In NPVRs roomy new Settings area, would it be possible to add a section for mapping remote control keys? Both Hauppauge Remotes (Remote.ini) and MCE remotes could be supported since there is a way to map MCE remote keys in the Windows Registry (I use this and it's spiffy). A simple "Restore Defaults" could do just that.
You might even consider leaving this a bit open so those of us with slightly different/odd-ball remotes could add our own settings in a community based fashion.
I think this is the one area that's "rough around the edges" for new users.
I downloaded the Web Radio plugin from the wiki, unzipped it to my Public Downloads directory, went into the Plugin.WebRadio directory, then double clicked on Batch-Installer.exe. I authorized it to run as administrator when the box appeared, then a cmd.exe window appears for less than a second, then the windows box appeared that says "this program may not have installed correctly". When I then run PVRX2, the plugin does not appear.
I opened an administrator command prompt in the Plugin.WebRadio directory, and ran the Install.bat file from there. This was the result:
Code:
C:\Users\Public\Downloads\Plugin.WebRadio>Install.BAT
--- READ PLUGIN DIRECTORY NAME FROM PLUGINNAME.BAT ---
--- GET CURRENT DIRECTORY ---
--- LOCATE GBPVR INSTALLATION DIRECTORY ---
ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
ECHO is off.
--- LOCATE ACTIVE SKIN INSTALLATION DIRECTORY ---
\Devnz\GBPVR\\config.xml`) was unexpected at this time.
C:\Users\Public\Downloads\Plugin.WebRadio>
Does anyone know how to get this to install on Win 7 Home Premium 64bit?
When I add a bitmap to a UiList.ListItem, does it manage the bitmap after that?
So if I use uiList.SetListObjects(list) again to change the contents of base.uiList
, do I need to clean up the old list?
How about a UiStatic? If I change the image like
// myImage is a UiStatic, previously created with another image
Hashtable h = new Hashtable();
h.Add("@image", MyNewBitmapImage );
myImage = new UiStatic("myImage", h, mySkinHelper);
I have comcast cable and it's the time of the month to move channels around so I'm attempting to rescan and reset channels. My first rescan found channels but I couldn't select them in the dropdown list nest to the channel so I tried okaying my way out but then I couldn't get back to the mapping screen, config would just stop responding. I then deleted the scan cache for all my devices and left the app run a scan which worked but now when I try to view a channel in the mapping screen I get an active movie screen which pops up and when I x out of it I can get sound but no picture in the mapping pane.
I really need to be able to launch an external prog from within NPVR (for Bluray playback by TMT3). In GBPVR this works very well using a custom task. Can the ability to do this be added to NPVR?
Yesterday I made a recording from Cartoon Network, when trying to play it I get no sound at all. If I try to select an audio track manually NextPVR hangs. Log attached (see end of log), and a 4 min sample can be found here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3IPB2W1O
