I ran into a thread on here a little while back that allows you to export the UK DVB EPG fom a BDA capture source to an xml file to populate the EPG for the equivalent UK analogue channels. Now I need it, can't find the thread again. CAn anyone point me to it or post the instructions again.
thanks

Hi

I've just upgraded from NPVR 1.5.19 having made sure that the three NRecord.exe/NTray.exe/NextPVR.exe processes were not running. I had already closed the tray icon so only had to stop NRecord.

Anyhow the setup seemed to install ok but when I checked the details I had loads of skipped files. Also my setup window says this is version 1.5.20.

Is this a problem?

I feel like I've missed something here. I've just installed 1.5.21 over 1.5.19 and lost the start NPVR option when I right-click on the tray icon. I also found that the window does not retain it's size when I change it (an improvement stated in the changelog), and the installer and Settings window still state that it is version 1.5.19.

I then unsinstalled NPVR and deleted the User-Public-NPVR folder then tried a complete fresh install (rebootng the PC each time), but with no improvement. Later I again uninstalled and deleted everything and put back 1.5.19 but I still can't start NPVR from the tray icon (just Show Status and Exit). I'm worried that I've overlooked something so obvious that I shouldn't even be posting this and showing how dumb I am, but I'm sure that I could bring up a start option by right-click the tray icon an hour ago! :confused:

Sorry if it's been covered - a search didn't bring up anything.

Will there be support for 'custom tasks' in NPVR? (To launch Hulu Desktop, etc.)

I'm sure a lot of people use this, would be great to have it back!

Hi, I'll be swapping across to nvpr in a release or so (client mode required etc), but in the meantime I thought I'd see if anyone had a simple solution to a problem I've had for a while - when I use filmstrip mode in Video Library (either in sub's blue or my modified CS4 skin), sometimes the image is fine, and sometimes it is extremely pixilated. It looks as if it is blowing up a cached thumbnail rather than using the actual image. If I exit out of the library and then re-enter, or simply cycle through the library modes, the image will usually change back to the high quality one, but other random movies have changed. If there is a simple setting change required etc, I would be delighted to hear it

DVB-S fine with the update.

Sadly I am still getting the hangup with DVB-T scanning with an exception if OK or Cancel clicked. Have to kill it with task manager end task.

I ran gbpvr config just after the attempt with npvr and enclose the logs in case they show anything odd with the data received?

thanks

Despite rebooting a couple of times under 1.5.19 my MVP continued to use the MVPMC dongle with mixed results - mainly playing older .mpg recordings and music library stuff. Having installed 1.5.21, after a couple of crash outs I rebooted and it has reverted to a Hauppauge dongle. Any recommendations? Thanks

I've updated the installer at http://www.gbpvr.com/NPVRSetup.exe.

If you're upgrading from 1.5.19, you need to make sure you stop the NRecord.exe/NTray.exe/NextPVR.exe processes prior to running the installer. In future releases I'll make this automatic, but thats not the case yet.

Changes:

Quote:- now defaulting to 9750/11700/10600 LNB settings outside of NZ.
- .mpg playback is now honoring the decoder selections. Previously only .ts files would, and decoders used during .mpg playback would be chosen by Windows.
- some minor visual changes to the Recording screen to make it clearer that left/right will switch between the various recording lists.
- fixed several PCH issues (some screen rendering problems, playback position, skipping, problem with switch back/forth between cover/list views)
- added tray icon support for starting N-PVR.
- added basic support for EVR aspect ratios with negative values. Its not perfect, but does work. Due to an EVR limitation, the OSD graphics are displayed in a slightly incorrect position on the screen (too narrow).
- fixed analog support for a couple of device
- added support for '999' disabling of auto comskip skipping (like GB-PVR used). Also fixes a bug in this functionality previously made available in a patch.
- added ability to press 'play' to manually skip inside a comskip block
- fixed a problem with parameters past to the PostProcessing.bat/ParallelProcessing.bat batch files
- fixed a problem with recording service sometimes not automatically noticing setting changes (like number of MVP servers, recording directory etc).
- fixed a problem where MVP server windows were visible
- window size and position now remembered between runs of the application.
- added a setting screen for selecting which plugins are visible in the main menu. (I expect to do more work in the future to allow reordering etc, but this is at least a start)
- added mechanism for plugins to provide a configuration form. The plugin needs to implement the NUtility.IPluginConfiguration interface, then the framework will call the GetSettingsPage() interface to get an instance of the form it can use. The form returned should be a form with no frame, derived from NUtility.SettingsPage. This base class has a SaveSettings() method which can be overriden by the plugin to save the configuration.
[SIZE=2]- added setting to specify the initial view first time you view the Recordings screen. (ie, start with Ready or Whats New etc)
- fixed a bug with certain pre-recorded transport streams not giving audio/video during playback.
- now looks for batch files (ParallelProcessing.bat, PostProcessing.bat, UpdateEPG.bat) in [DATA]\Scripts (ie, on Vista/Win7 it'd be C:\Users\Public\NPVR\Scripts)
[SIZE=2]- fixed problem with service being uninstalled during a reinstall.
[/SIZE]- added shortcut for stop/starting NPVR

Hi folks,

I just installed GBPVR and everything looks great but i have one problem, when i make changes in the config menu they are not getting applied to the interface, this is a problem as i store my media on external drives which aren't being picked up unless i configure the settings to do so.

I have just re installed my vista home basic and it is fully updated.

i am aware that this maybe something very obvious but i have searched the forums and the wiki but can't see what i am doing wrong, thanks for any help or advice....

Maybe one day, when i am fully conversant with it i could return the favour.

Cheers
