I'm trying to get this app working under linux, but am getting the following error (which does not look specific to Linux):
mono djkxml.exe
Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
at Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileSystem.FileOpen (Int32 FileNumber, System.String FileName, OpenMode Mode, OpenAccess Access, OpenShare Share, Int32 RecordLength) [0x00000]

at djkxml.Module1.Main () [0x00000]
This version does work on my windows machine - without error.
I have an HVR1600 in my system and although everything works fine with analog and digital TV I am left wanting to improve the analog TV visual quality. One of the things I am noticing is the MPEG decoding seems to be the biggest culprit in the quality. First, you notice the graininess due to the compression. I've moved the bit rates up to min 9000/max 12000 and that really doesn't seem to help much. Secondly, one of the things I am noticing is due to MPEG compression it appears the B frames are dominant so you get effects like facial movements where the face doesn't move for a couple of frames and then shifts. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions, especially using the settings for the HVR-1600 in graphedit. Or perhaps a suggestion on decoder that might improve quality. I am using the MS DTV-DVD Video Decoder on Windows 7.
but when you click on listen now, it brings up a new flash-based player which SDP cannot record. So I'm wondering if I use GB-PVR, will I be able to record this show and set it up like a vcr?
I just get the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1800 (OEM version, has one input for digital and one input for analog), and install the winTV 7 that come with it without any problem,
then I follow the gbpvr initial startup guide, to config the card, get the 7days trial to use the schedules direct, base on roger cable and antenna, to requesting listing and I get 30-40 out of it, when I try to map digital channels to EPG channels, I get no channel.
any idea what might be wrong? is there any basic test to see if GBPVR can watch any OTA and basic cable or not.
Since I know WinTV can see almost 40 basic channels from Rogers and 8 digital channels
thanks.
My cable provider just switched from analog to digital. I uninstalled GBPVR, and deleted the GBPVR folder. I then installed GBPVR and set it up from scratch. I set up all my channels, and all seems to be OK, except, once in a while, I'll tune in a channel, and the audio will be very very slow. It sounds like playing a cassette at half speed. All drivers and programs are up to date.
I've tinkered a bit with codecs, no change. I'm hoping someone has seen this, and can save me some time.
Thanks...

Hi,
I have recently purchased 2 hard drives model number WD1600JS-62MHB5.Both of these drives have been removed from Sagem IHD 91 pvr boxes.
When plugging these drives into an external usb caddy my pc recognises them but then wont let me do anything with the drive ie format, read or write data to them.
Having done a google search it seems that people are having the exact same issues with drives they have removed from the same sagem pvr.
Is it possible that the pvr is changing the firmware? If so then how can i get these drives back to factory firmware so that they are useable hard drives. I have a test system that i have used to test the drives but the message i receive is "drive is not locked", but the system can see all the drive details.
Does anyone have any ideas of where i can go from here?
Well, we knew it was coming for weeks (Starhub's change in channel numbering). But I foolishly thought that the on-line program guide would have been updated for the new numbers. Alas, not the case, and the new on-lineguide pages are in a completely different format, using java. And now it's panic time, as all programming must be handled manually!
So, does anyone know how to process this type of page with TVxb, or know of an alternative to TVxb if TVxb can't handle it? I've played around with the tagtr and tagtd strings without luck so far..
