Hi,

I just set up a new system with a DVB-T (Technotrend budget card) and a DVB-S (Nova SE2) I can watch Live TV with both, but can only record with the DVB-T. If I record with the Nova Card it shows me after record an Entry, but If I try to watch it I can not choose "play". I can only delete. Any sugestions?

Hi there,

My pvr has been working perfectly up until a week ago when it seddenly stopped.... it recorded a show at 12pm and has recorded anything since. I didn't make any changes to my system. I also can not watch live TV and am unable to update the EPG. I have attached an extract from the log file when trying to watch live tv. There is an error that says ERROR_DEVICE_NOT_CONNECTED but I am not sure what this means. Is it saying that there is a problem with my satellite or my TV card?

Any ideas would be greatlt appreciated.

Cheers.... Robert

hi - went totally crazy and got a new-ish PC from HP running Vista 64. Installed fine (had to run the mc2xml.exe as admin) but No Channels Found during scan. I ran Re-registerfilters.bat sucessfully (as admin) - still no luck.

Any suggestions? Its an HVR-1800.

I am using the same TV coax that I used last night on my old system which also has an HVR-1800 (normally get 20 channels or so)

Logs posted - thanks!!

Hi all,

I recently had to rebuild my machine for various reasons and have everything working as it should be with the exception that video inset no longer works. The home key is mapped on my remote correctly and responds as it should in TV Listings(it takes me back to the menu) but in live tv/recorded tv, etc it does nothing. The showkey utility registers that I am pressing the Home key when I press the menu button. I have VMR9 Custom set, installed Direct X 10, have tried disabling all my plugins/codecs/comskip, and i'm at a loss at this point. I have checked the logs and everything looks fine as far as I can tell. It registers that I request video inset and from the logs it would appear to be doing it but it's not. I have attached my logs. Has anyone run into this before?

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

In the next 2 weeks or so, I'll be buying a media extender for my parents. It doesn't need to do much, just let them watch and schedule GB-PVR recordings from their TV. I'd rather not build a computer for this.

I'm planning on getting them a MediaMVP or NMT, used on ebay if necessary. I'd like it to be not much over $100. Is there any consensus, on what is the best extender for basic needs, or any big drawbacks to certain models? If I get a NMT, should I just go for a PCH A-100, or are some of the other options listed here good/ok?

Popcorn Hour (PCH) A100, A110, B110, EGreat M34a, HD Digitech HDX 1000

Thanks.

I there a way to set up the EPG so that these two import as different channels (one is HD digital from the HDPVR one is standard SD analog cable)

I got the Wiz Fanartgrabber in this post and have used it of and on since then. So first, thank you for this very useful tool!

It have done the work well but there are some features that can be enhanced.

There are three radio buttons: Banner, Thumbnail and Vignette. I don't think they work as they are supposed to. I guess it where supposed to switch between the image categories, but this do not work.

I suspect that it is difficult to get correct info on the different type of images stored on thetvdb.
But as it takes a long time to browse the images, my suggestion is that you replace the radio buttons with a dropdown. The dropdown would be populated with as manu integers as there is images for the series.
Or as alternative to a dropdown, buttons that jump five images at the time (forward and backward).

The reason for this is that the images I want is usually placed in the middle of all the stored images. So it is no help to be able to jump to the end. I have to step through them all one by one...

But as i began, the tool have saved me a lot of time when I have added new series. It is simple and there is no need for more features as it does the work well, except the one mentioned above.

I have been using GBPVR for years and just this weekend set up a Popcorn Hour A-110.

Let me just say how impressed I am with GBPVR AND the NMT working together. I know that this is a collaboration of more than one person, but I just wanted to say thank you to all involved.

I think its time for me to hit the "donate" button again.

I have a Terratec Cinergy S2 HD CI capture card with an Ideto Cryptoworks and a ORF card.
I set the common interface to multidec but all encrypted channels will not be decrypted!
With the Software "TerraTec Home Cinema" it is possible to view all encrypted channels! Also the HD channel works.
Gbpvr found the channel (ORF1) but cannot decrypt it.
The channel "ORF 1 HD" not found by gbpvr (11303, SR:22000, FEC:2/3)
