I posted this in the main support forum not realizing EWA had it's own forum. After a few months of trouble free operation, I've run into a problem. I have 2 SD capture sources and an HD-PVR. Recently, wen I try to schedule a recording on an HD channel through EWA I get a red "recording failed" box. No problems scheduling recordings on SD channels through EWA, and no problems scheduling recordings on the GB-PVR UI for both SD and HD. I installed the latest version of EWA this AM but that didn't help.I am trying to figure out what is going wrong, but as far as I can see no logs are created by EWA. Any pointers on how to chase this down? Could it be a corrupt extendedEWA.db3?
Would it be possible to get an Initialise(UiList.ViewMode viewMode) override so that the list does not have to be populated twice if you want to start in ViewMode.COVERS? Or is there a better way to do this?
Code:
protected override void Initialise()
{
base.Initialise(); // PopulateList called here.
uiList.SetViewMode(UiList.ViewMode.COVERS);
PopulateList(); // refresh list after changing viewmode.
}
Due to me not having much luck with various codec configurations, I decided to choose a clean slate to try and get dxva working, if I can't get dxva working I am not fussed anymore!
This is currently my issue at present, note the only thing I record as doing differently compared to the original installation is I didn't update power dvd to the final latest... (on the original nstall)

Monograph remporting cyberlink splitter & divx codec or power dvd , and monogram/cyberlink audio filters,
this isn't correct whats happening the filter won't budge!! ( powerdvd demux not acccessible?) and for some reason powerdvd cyber link h.264 codec isn't accessible via gbpvr and possibly monograph. But works fine locally in power dvd.

Power DVD Cyber Link was installed, locale update installed via cd and registered locally.
Updated to final 7.x version 7.3 (online)
Local playing of MP4 (H.264) media fine via cyber link power dvd but monograph / gbpvr can't play video, presume because of Demux is listed as cyberlink and for some reason once latest update was installed no 3rd plarty software,
can access the codec h.264 of cyber link. Was this a copyright issue?
divx player can play h.264 locally with its codec, which I tried reigstering with bpvr and monograph but the demux is still currently listed as cyberlink...
Can't get the sattelite side of this tuner to work at all, the DVB-T works fine.

Attached is a copy of mvpmcx2 designed to run with both NPVR and 1.4.7. Unfortunately sub ignored my requests to make a change that would have helped mvpmcx2 auto detect the version so you will need a to add a command line option --em-npvr to use NPVR. Any firewall rules will need to be changed too, you now need to allow NextPVR.exe and the NRecord.exe through the firewall.
Overall IMO NMT support is not ready to use as a primary client, but considering this is an early beta version sub has done a really good job of keeping NPVR's functionality and thing look good for the future. By far the biggest weaknesses come in video playback, the correct location in the file is not being used to calculate the internal timeline so navigation including seeking by time, resume and com skip can be questionable, (sh*tty).
Other than that, I have a continuing problem with files and livetv restarting. LiveTV processing has changed and I miss some of the features of 1.4.7 (programmed view) and being able to save LiveTV. Hopefully these will come before the beta is over since that will probably keep me on 1.4.7
The OSD alpha over video need to be corrected, what you are seeing know is a hack turned on with this command line. Unfortunately NPVR has not improved the OSD flicker problem, if anything right now it is worse the OSD seems to be sent more times than before. Sub mentioned at one time he might be able to do incremental updates, my fingers are crossed.
There's also a minor annoyance where the screen will go blank after video or when a screen saver comes off, just hit a remote key, it usually won't be frozen.
If you have any comments let me know. Basically mvpmcx2 has not changed, we are waiting for sub to finish NPVR
Also Don't forget to update the <MVP> section of config.xml with your <MAC-> section from
GBPVR's config.xml
(Edit file removed this is an obsolete message)

Hi Sub
I got NPVR to see all my channels now and have the epg data with them(Great work!!!), but when I goto play the channels I just get a blank screen. Have tried other decoders but still no luck
XP sp3, Divico fusion dual digital
It still works in GBPVR though.
Here are the logs and config
Any help appreciated
Thanks
Dave
I have an hvr-1800 and am trying to scan for QAM channels. I tried editing down the QAM file so it only scans a few frequencies, but it will only scan the default ATSC channels. How do I get it to scan my QAM set? I am now on my Vista machine since I had such good luck on my test machine
if im playing a recordgin or dvd when I skip forward it doesnt show the play position and the show description on the bottom. im sure i am missing something or someone has already posted this but i couldnt find it. i am running the beta side by side with 1.4.7 which works beautiful. let me know if you need more info.
thanks!
