sub,
I see that NPVR doesn't have a tag for <AvoidDuplicateRecordingsIfPossible> in config.xml and that it schedules all showings of the same episode to record for season recordings. Will this functionality make it into a future build, or is it there now and I just need to add the tag to config.xml?
I'm unable to set the desired channel on my analogue tuner. I have a WinTV-HVR-2200 and NPVR 1.5.25. The DVB channels have set up fine but I have a cable STB with an analogue output fixed to 815.25MHZ = cable chan 332 = TV chan 64 which I wish to set the analogue part of tuner to. However when I go to Settings-Devices-Analog-Device Setup and add a channel e.g.:
Number: a program number not used by any other program in NPVR e.g.100
Name: I'm calling it "Cable"
Input Source: Fixed Channel
Country: New Zealand
Tuning: Cable
Fixed CH: 332
and hit OK it assigns Channel 72, not 332.
I also tried a similar thing with Input Source = Tuner and a seemingly random channel is assigned.
I had expected that I could edit the programming by double clicking on the channel but the only thing that can be changed is the Number.
I've attached some screen shots in the order that I've just described.
Hi I am having trouble getting my pinnacle 320e capture card to work it isnt recognised.
It will not auto detect the device
Error message:GB-PVR was unable to start the BDA device you have configured. Check the device is configured properly, and not already in use. (Reason: Failed to locate configured BDA capture device)
This is the BDA.ini file section and I have attached a txt version of the filter check log.
[Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid Pro stick (type2)]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
FILTER_TUNER=PCTV 320e BDA TVTuner
FILTER_CAPTURE=PCTV 320e BDA Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
Does anyone have any ideas how to get this to work
I beg you: Please integrate the FM Radio function. This one is for me important and a must have for any MediaCenter. It's not for the music... i don't like hear music via radio, it's the news and culture channels. I love my pcs. I love my mediacenters. And of course i love your PVR Software.
So it`s no wonder, that the mediacenters are running the whole day at home. And for breakfast it's just a must go to listen to radio.
Please, please, please dear sub, bring back my lovely fm radio. ^.^ (a basic function would be enough, station entering one time manuell via notepad into a xml, recording isn't needed).
My Vista box won't sleep with nPVR now. Anyone else have this issue? It used to sleep fine, but now it won't, even with the network cable unplugged. I tried stopping the recording service for a test, but that did not help. I don't have anything scheduled to record. My XP machine sleeps fine. It might just be a coincidence, but wanted to know if anyone else has seen this.
UPDATE: I found some strange windows stuff was going on and fixed it. It was NOT a nPVR issue (as you all probably expected). She is sleeping like a baby now.
Once NPVR is launched, you can right-click and choose that it always stays on top. What would be great is a command-line switch that could be used when starting NPVR which would do the same thing. I.e.
Not sure which sub forum (if any) this belongs in....
While browsing, I came across a website that keeps an up to date satellite transponder list for various bits of software. Near the bottom are the generic zipped up ini files that look like they could drop right into g/n-pvr as transponders come and go. I'll try to do a scan with the standard ini file and then the new one to see if any channels have been found or lost and report tomorrow. (for Europe, the " Ku-Band Linear" would appear to be the standard one).
Here's something I've noticed with a few VM tests and fresh installs:
I'm working on a duplicate of GBPVR's System plugin, which I've named "System" in its GetName() method.
After dumping its DLL in Plugins\System it shows up in NPVR's settings dialog as "system" (with a small 's'), both in the plugin list, and in the bit where you can enable/disable it.
If I restart, then it appears in the app's main menu as "system", but looking at settings again, it's now there as "System" (unticked) and "system" has gone. After reticking it, it then seems ok from then on, and appears in the main menu as "System".
Is this expected behaviour at the moment, or is there something else I need to be doing?
