I've just moved and am trying to setup GB-PVR to recieve the DVB-T signal (aka Freeview UK) at my new house but I appear to be missing an entire MUX.
I get the signal from the Sandy Heath transmitter near Bedford and I can recieve all the available channels on my TV, but MUX B (the BBC Four/Cbeebies one) is simply missing. I've tried scanning for channels on the specific transmitter and also tried using "All Regions". I've also done a manual scan for the specific frequency (842kHz) but to no effect.
The only thing I have noticed on the UKFree.tv page is that MUX B is on channel 67 and the others are in the 20s & 40s and that a Wideband aerial is needed to recieve them all, but since I can get this MUX on my TV can I assume that my aerial is OK?
What can I do to fix this? Are there any troubleshooting or diagnostic steps I can perform which will help you help me?
So, I have several shows set to record the season. Only one (Red Green, PBS) actually completes. The rest say they have completed and the folders are created but there are no actual files created. Not only that but when I go to 'Recordings' and then select the show and select the episode and look at the time recorded it will say 6:00pm - 5:59pm or 8:00am - 7:59am. Why would this happen? I use schedulesdirect and the guide looks correct. It matches up fine with live TV.
Tell me what info you need to help diagnose. I have HDHomeRun.
I have replaced my PVR-150 with an HVR-2250 and have been unable to get any kind of live TV in GB-PVR since setting up the new card. I ran HWclear to remove all old PVR-150 drivers and apps, and have installed latest drivers for the 2250. I've set up two sources in Config, one as Card #1 and the second as card #2. My issue is I only get a black screen followed by a blue screen. My receivers are set top boxes and I do get a picture if I go through Windows Media Center(shudder) setup, so I know the card is working to some degree. Anyone gone through this mess before, any ideas?
I have had everything working with my popcorn hour for quite some time. I've had a few small issues and saw there was an update to mvpmc at the link below. So I decided to upgrade.
I ran the exe, but did not remember my mac id number. I read that if I was just updating I didn't need to worry about that, so I didn't type anything in for the mac id and ran the update. Everything installed without errors but after the update I could get to the GBPVR menus fine but when I went to play something everything just went black. I thought maybe I should have entered the mac id so I looked it up, ran the update again, and this time added the mac id. Now I can't get to the gbpvr menus anymore. It just goes black before it gets to the gbpvr menu. I looked in the logs, but I don't seem to get any, it looks like it locks up before it can generate anything.
Running your checking utility I get:

There seems to be a problem with GB-PVR.html
but the file exists at D:\shares\MVPMC\GB-PVR.html
and seems to be fine.
Hi, Im a newbie to tv on the PC.
I am using an HP DVB card, with Windows Vista.
I have a good signal to my aerial, as never have a problem on my TV. I have used this aerial wire to connect to the laptop.
In configuration, I receive a TV picture when mapping to the EPG, and can see this moving picture in the small thumbnail window.
However, after 'OK'ing' out of the configuration tool, and going to use the PVRX2 program, the Live TV shows EPG details, but no picture or sound, and the two bars for signal and quality have nothing in them, with a message saying no signal is detected.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
This is going to be our TV for our caravan, and our first holiday is in 2 weeks, so I would love to get this sorted. I have a feeling I am nearly there, but can't work out where Ive gone wrong.
Thanks.
Martin....sorry been occupying you alot recently...I can't get Web radio working on my PCH. The plugin loads but when I try an play a station it looks like it does on my server but I never get audio. It looks like the mp3 file in temp never gets created. I've attached logs but looking through them it doesn't look like they reveal much.
Maybe this is normal (it has been this way for me since day one) but I just thought I would ask. I have noticed that when watching recordings the OSD works great on my PCH. I press the blue button and I get the timeline on top and the details about the show on the bottom. If I am watching live TV and I press the blue button I only get the description and no timeline. Is that by design?
I also notice that I only get the OSD for the first blue button press with live tv. Any other press after the first nothing happens. If I press the green button to see the guide info then press the green button again to clear the screen then it resets and I get one more blue button press that works.
To be honest I do not really watch live very often so it is not that big of a deal for me but I have always wondered if my setup was wrong and I could fix this by changing a setting or installing an update.
I love being able to us the GBPVR interface on my PCH! It is great! Sub and Martin you rock! (sorry if I forgot anyone involved. My speech writer is out of town so I just had to wing it.)
