I can't setup these cards. Not sure what else I should be trying. Have registered HCW_MCMPEG2MUX.AX successfully.
Attached log and screen of error popup.
Thanks

I have been trying to get the video library to show metadata when I browse the folders.
It works fine when I browse my TV shows, then NPVR show what is written in tvshow.nfo
But for movies, I have to select the video file in the folder to get the movie data to show.
The folders contains various meta data files (movie.nfo, mymovies.xml and [filename].xml and .nfo), so I had hoped it would select one of them.
Do I have to use different syntax than with tv-shows? That seems unlikely.
My apologies in advance if this looks familiar, but this is a follow on from what I was trying to do with USBUIRTSEND.exe in the GBPVR Legacy thread, but actually it applies more to NPVR because that's where I am trying to use it.
My problem is that the parameters you select for the Svideo Input of NPVR with a a PVR-150 seem to be different to GBPVR. The input I selected is from Cable and the Tuner I select is S-Video Ports.
However I can't see USBUIRTSEND.exe sending a signal to the USB-UIRT. It seems from the log below that it wants to change the Device's (PVR-150) (internal) Analog channel changer even though the SOURCE and INPUT apear to be correct (SVIDEO and CABLE resp.).
What I did was selecetd the above import the channels via an XMLTV file.
Q1. When I try to do this, I can select "SVideo" and "Cable" but what do I select for Country? I tried where I live but it fails to change channel. I tried Analog Tuner - it fails. I tried Analog Tuner RF Input. That fails, horribly.
Q2. When I look back into NPVR settings it seems to revert to "Analog" under the type for that device - I also get the fuzzy analog screen (because I do not have an Analog Antenna), and it doesn't seem to be sticky choosing SVideo and Cable?

I also got a couple of nasty errors when I chose RF (I think) esp. when I selected listen from the menu.
I have set up the digital tuner on my HVR2250 and the results are disappointing. More often than not, the TS streams are empty. I see mentions of failure in the logs, but I have no idea why. I do know sometimes when watching the HVR usint WinTV, I need to tune twice to the channel
System:

GBPVR - I need to keep GBPVR until I get a NMT in house.
I am attaching the logs. Does NPVR do any better? Does NPVR handle the HDHomeRun any better? Is there a more detailed set of instructions for manual scanning with the HDHomeRun?
I appreciate all the work you put into GBPVR. It really is a great piece of software. I am just getting caught up in the cycle of failing tuners and the digital transition.
I feel bad sharing what I'd like to see in NPVR since I've done nill to add to the experience but I'd like to be able to view both recording programs as well as scheduled recordings while in live tv. Or at least a box showing live tv or in the background.
I know I can use the settings menu do this but it's not as nice as having pressing a button on the remote or a hot key on the keyboard and viewing the info much like the tv guide below live tv.
I'd gladly donate a few $$$ to anyone who takes this on.
I am running GB-PVR 1.4.7 using a CableTV source. I cannot see analog on my ATI 650 using GB-PVR. TuningAssistant.exe shows all analog channels. GB-PVR shows the Clear QAM.
I have attached my logs. All suggestions appreciated.
Sub, would it be possible to create a PluginHelperFactory() function to normalize filenames for storing to the Media\Show folder. Using this there would be a consistent way to write and look files in the folder?
Some of the things I would like it to do,
- ToLower();
- parse out invalid path and filename characters.
- remove trailing "®"
- TrimEnd(' ');
- Replace(" and ", " & ");
