Can 1.4.7 still be downloaded? The 1.5 version uses ts mux which doesn't work well with comskip and I'd like to have a backup install file of 1.4.7 in case I need to reformat in the future.
today it is possible to use Popcorn hours as a client to GBPVR.
is there a plan of being able to use other media players as extenders to NPVR including GUI?
if so are there any media players that is on the list of being a future client?
tried this new release out this evening and i have to say it is the best yet. Took me 10 mins to setup without any hitches. Live tv comes up faster then i have ever seen.
Just one thing missing. Can channel logos be added or is that not currently supported?
Now that NPVR has been released publicly, I can announce that I have resumed working on a plugin for Netflix Watch Instantly. It is not quite yet ready for release but it soon will be. Look for it over the next few days.
The "bad" news:
This is a complete code rewrite due to the changes with both NPVR and the Neflix data service. So the first release will just be a basic plugin that lists all available Watch Instantly titles by name with a basic player. Additional features like queue management and list sorting will be added after the initial release.
The good news:
The new plugin pulls the current list of available titles at the when first activating the plugin (or selecting "Refresh List"). The data is pulled directly from Netflix which means that there is no interim server like there was before so you do not have to wait me to update the list.
Refreshing the list takes minutes depending on your connection.
After the initial basic plugin is released, the code will be made available on Google Code and additional project developers will be assigned (all of those who offered previously). This way the project will hopefully continue with or without me and other developers can step up to add additional features.
Other thoughts:
Everyone should now be on the Silverlight player so there is no downloading of titles to watch later. Everything will be streamed. Silverlight does however create some challenges for trick play with a remote (ff/rew). I can remap remote keys when the custom browser (the player) is in windowed mode but when switching to fullscreen, I cannot remap the keys. So for fullscreen, you will need a programmable remote or programmable remote software like HIP.
All of a sudden I am getting ffdecsa.dll not found when I try to scan for channels. Any ideas or where I could find it. It is not on my hard drive

It's been nearly a year since I've had a problem like this, although I used to be plagued by them. I have a recording that simply didn't start when it was supposed to. I now can't cancel it, and any recordings pending behind it have become similarly stuck. Restarting the recording service and/or the computer itself does no good; I've tried about a million times.
It's been awhile since I've logged in, and I am now discovering (to my dismay) that the best freeware ever released is now considered "legacy"; I can only hope that community support for it will continue for years, as I certainly can't afford the time to start from scratch. Hopefully, someone here can help with this problem with 1.4.7
I have a Hauppauge HVR-950Q (ATSC/QAM/analog) but its being listed in NPVR as a HVR-950 (ATSC). Any help on configuring this thing to work in NPVR would be much appreciated. Worked perfectly in GBPVR 1.4.7 (using tweaks that no longer seem to apply).
I am pleased to announce a new version of the Web Radio plugin with NPVR Support. Since NPVR no longer has Net Radio, I though that is important to simplify Web Radio so more of you can enjoy it, hopefully you will agree. Here are some new features
- improved installer
- more meaningful error messages
- native playback of mp3 files (no external player required)
- direct support for several NMTs and MVP running together
- basic install provides Net Radio's Shoutcast listings, plus they are not limited to 25 stations and they show "now playing art"
In addition for those that have only used Net Radio, you are missing out on a lot of music. The Web Radio Add On file http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/uploads/Plugin/N...AddOns.zip 4.5 MB is worth a look. In this new version I have added itunes-style Podcast support to the many listing shown on the screen shot. Again the native player will be used for mp3 files, and vlc is used behind the scenes to playback other stream types.
Thanks to Jaggy for the help skinning this, to sub for helping figure out NPVR and for adding some plugin support this needed, and to the beta testers from help and feedback
i'm having a hard time installing softpvr also..
i found my original pvr150 card cd, but the download still says no driver found, [pvr150 died long time ago] and aborts install..there is no softpvr on my original cd tho..
i have an old softpvr install, but it won't upgrade it..
so i'm at a loss...
shouldn't there be some easier way to get at least the mux? as it is required for the app to do analog at all..
Here is a demo skin for NPVR basically created by sub and greatly enhanced for Web Radio by Jaggy. It's really unsupported and unfinished currently but I like Mayhem a lot I thank both sub and Jaggy for doing this. I am hoping MixMan will build on this after Icon View comes back.
