I have a problem playing recordings after the computer wakes from either suspend or hibernate. This is a fresh install of 1.0407 on my new machine (see signature) with a copy of the GBPVR.db3 file moved over from the old machine.
I can play mpeg recordings on a fresh boot, but not after a resume; GBPVR comes up ok, the menu works, but when I try to play a recording I get a frozen screen, looks like the first frame of the recording.
I noticed this in config.exe-native.log, but don’t know how to fix it.

when I check the "Allow Service to interact with desktop" under service logon options, I get the following in the event log:
"The GB-PVR Recording Service service is marked as an interactive service. However, the system is configured to not allow interactive services. This service may not function properly."
This also prevents the MVPTrayIcon plugin from working.
Has anyone else seen this or have any idea on how to resolve it?
I'm using an HVR2250. I have two capture sources set up with BDA Recording Plugins - QAM tuning - ATSC type.
I've read what I can find about the BDA Multiplexer setting on the Misc2 tab, but I don't understand the difference between the three options - Microsoft DVR-MS, TS Mux, and full TS.
Can someone briefly explain the benefits of each, and recommend which one I should select? So much to learn...
My cable provider just switched us to digital. The files are now saved in .ts format - they play just fine. However, I seem to recall a setting that allowed you to choose the quality of a recording when you set a recording up. There doesn't seem to be one now. Am i correct, and if so, why is that?
I've just installed DVB-T radio on Windows 7 64 bit. I had it running successfully on an older system, but can't seem to get it to work now. I have registered the lame directshow filter, successfully scanned and can see all the stations that I would expect, but when I attempt to play them there is no sound.
I'm running GB-PVR on a WinXP - x64 OS. And using a HVR-1700.
The channels are entered based on frequencies.
Besides not being able to switch channels (see other post with this title), there are also some other, minor issues.
Somehow, the web interface does not store changes made via the config tab.
Everything goes back to defaults.
Moreover, this Ajax web interface shows the time in AM/PM format. And not 24 hrs format like the PVRX2 client.
Updating the web interface to its latest version doesn't help. Moreover, in this case, another problem shows up.
Every time the configurator is started, the message 'Please wait while windows configures...' pops up.
I made sure I followed the installation manual to the letter by removing the drivers and GB-PVR. And re-installed everything from scratch.
I also noticed that the x64 version of ffdshow is not recognized by GB-PVR.
Anyone having the same kind of glitches? And was able to solve it?
We got digital DMB-TH at last (well in my area), so apologies for all different threads but I thought they were all new subjects .. :-)
Anyway, for some reason the channels thrown up are just plain e.g. "Pearl" and "Pearl AC3". As noted in my comment in a thread from Feb 2008:

In October 2007, both broadcasting companies had agreed in November 2007 to utilize [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG2]MPEG2[/url] video format for [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulcast]simulcasting[/url] channels (TVB Jade, ATV Home, TVB Pearl and ATV World), and the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC]H.264[/url] format will be implemented for all digital broadcasting only channels [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMB-T/H#_note-3][4][/url]. For the audio codec, usual DTMB [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-top_box]set-top boxes[/url] will support [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-1_Audio_Layer_II]MPEG-1 Audio Layer II[/url] (MP2) for [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereo]stereo[/url] audio tracks, and [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Digital#Dolby_Digital]Dolby AC-3[/url] for [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surround_sound]surround sound[/url] audio tracks.
Q1. So I guess the plain ones are MP2 and the other ones Surround Sound AC3?
The funny thing is the AC3 Filter Icon come up when I play back, even though I did not choose the AC3 Channel? Taking e.g. the Channel that has Pearl and Pearl (AC3) the attached is stream details from the TS file using just plain Pearl.
Q2. I guess this could be because "A/52 (A52) is essentially the same thing as AC-3 (AC3)". SO why would one be non-AC3 but has essentially AC3 audio and one is stated as AC3? Odd.

Q3. NICAM. When I play the recorded TS file via GBPVR I get Chinese but when I play the recorded TS file in WMP I get an English Track (I can select the Chinese one in WMP which is track 2). So how do I get the English one in GBPVR? I tried Ctrl-G as per the WIKI but no joy? How do you toggle the audio Track?
Hi, sub, been using GBPVR all this time now, but on Analog. Now got into Digital, so am bringing a few new problems to the table, hope you can help! (btw see the udpated ini for HK for your next release).
I have a long running problem with the GBPVRrecording Service which works fine ona acomputer reboot, but after a while, (at elast one PC sleep/wake session) when I go to change a setting in config the Config locks up. When I go to close the service down, the service says "Stopping" but does not stop and the only solution is a reboot. Not even a log-off of user helps.

How can I help troubleshoot this? or is it one of those items that can have so many causes, as it is on a PC which is not exclusively an HTPC? e.g. Antivurus software (AVG Free) or UltraVNC drivers or something?
