I'm assembling a PVR test box with an ATI 650 PCI capture card and a Radeon 9600 video card. Had both of these running fine on an old Foxconn/AMD XP2000 motherboard. When I moved them to a newer ECS motherboard with a Sempron 2800, it will not POST if both cards are installed (long beep and no BIOS screen). It will POST as long as either card is not present. I tried two power supplies, one 385W and one 400W, same results (they were running fine on the 385W in the old box). Could this be anything but power? Could the cheapo ECS board have such poor on-board regulation that it can't handle the load? This ECS board was the main PVR for several years running a PVR150 and the Radeon 9600 with no problem, but with a different 400W power supply.
I know the question has been asked before but are there any plans to include an option for recording based on keywords as was available in XRECORD ?
Now that XRECORD has gone I am not aware of any other options for this functionality. I know that EWA can be used for this if you are using a web interface but its likely fairly common for your users to use NPVR as a standalone PVR operated with a remote.
Is anyone aware of another option for recordings based on keyword search that can be operated with a remote ?
I sometimes need to look at my recordings via Videos instead. I notice that all new recordings created with NPVR display no metadata, but all those created with GB-PVR do have it.
Is this intentional, a bug, or just not implemented yet?
When I look at the list of recordings, the recording date and time is correctly displayed.
However, when I look at the detail of a single recording, the displayed recording date and time is 7 hours earlier than when it actually occurred.
At first I thought it was the displaying GMT time of the recording, but then I realized GMT time would be 7 hours LATER. Seems like it's getting a time value that's already local, and then mistakenly applying the GMT-7 correction again.
Is there a simple utility for converting the TS recordings I"m getting from GBPVR with an HVR2250 card - to MPEG 2 without rerendering. I can't seem to fine one...
I'm using GBPVR 1.3.11 (yes I know, time to upgrade. That's coming... one thing at a time), and I'm having some trouble with DVD playback. I have a DVD that a friend made for me from a DVR of some kind. It is a standard DVD (MPEG-2 audio and video streams. G-Spot confirms this). The disc plays fine on the GBPVR box with media player and VLC, but in GBPVR I get distorted video (compressed to about 1/2 height with a white flashing bar across the bottom 1/3rd of the screen). In the GBPVR config all of the DVD video and audio playback options are set to Default (in the case of video decoder DEFAULT is the only option available). I assume I'm lacking some DVD playback software or something, but I'm not sure what. Like I said, VLC and Media Player handle the DVD disc just fine, and GSpot says I have the proper codecs installed.
please may I first make this comment, which is not to drift off topic for this thread
I always knew from the release of 'N-PVR' that anyone taking up the idea for creating a wiki for it would be up for some question and answers sessions, and I am! But be gentle..... unless you are going to help create a new wiki from scratch, in which case just say 'that's my job' 'f***' off and quite honestly I might!
Please do not EVEN bother responding unless you've spent your time looking at the other threads in documentation etc about a new wiki.... (and I do know that I'm a bit rubbish myself for looking through threads sometimes, sorry Martin!)
I would suggest keeping with pmwiki as the wiki engine, but upgrading it to the latest engine, and perhaps with a few more recipes to enhance it even better?
I would suggest that at least 4 of us (no more than 6) were enabled as admin to grant wiki publication rights to those that wished to publish to the wiki. (Should anyone get bored of this job they could pass on the mantle to those they thought could carry this on) And please read this correctly, this is admin, we used to ask blader for publication access anyway.
The list of 'Link Navs' would be locked by admin and only decided by admin with consultation to enhance the wiki nav experience, in the past the fact that navigation links could be added by anyone I think helped to make the wiki a little more confusing than it should have been.
This is just the start of my enquiry, should I hit a brick wall, just reply, 'Brick Wall'!
My suggestion is to get this running on my local web dev server and when the time is right upload to sub's server with whatever URL N-PVR wiki will end up with. So like the beta play with N-PVR, this is beta play with wiki........
