The latest SearchWizX2 (1.0.16.1) install is missing one of the dependent dlls (IIRC WizGenHelper.dll) so it will install but then GBPVR's config will throw an error on start up. For anyone who hits that issue, it is in WizDLLs.zip which is easy to get separately:
Nice compiles of mencoder for win32. I've switched from ffmpeg to mencoder. It handles audio/video realignment better and supports xvid options and 2 pass is much faster. Without reprocessing the files ffmpeg would almost always get the audio off.
Can I create FLV/SWf files from dvr-ms files that I can play on Wii console? I suspect ffmpeg can do it but I can't find a simple example of the command line.
Plus, I can't find a simple example of the HTML I need to put in a web page to play the file.
Thanks to anyone who can point me at the info that I didn't find.
I'm in trouble with the wife again over GB-PVR. I scheduled it to record the Oscars, and also added a 30-minute end pad to the recording since the Oscars always run long. I told it to cancel the shows that it said were in conflict, and figured all was well. Of course, the show went long and GB-PVR did not honor my padding request, so she missed the end of the show. Immediately after the show's scheduled end time, there was a recurring recording scheduled; so it recorded a re-run of the Simpsons at 8:30 rather than finish recording the Oscars (my other tuner was already in use).
This is an error in the scheduling logic. Padding explicitly specified in a one-off recording should be hard padding; it should take precedence over all other scheduling concerns. I shouldn't have to try to out-think the scheduler to get my program recorded.
I just installed SearchWiz but having a bit of trouble figuring out how to define a filter that will match on a particular episode of a show. For example "Star Trek" and "Tribbles" (to borrow from the MovieWiz example I turned up) - the MovieWiz syntax "Star Trek | Tribbles" does not seem to work with SearchWiz. It seems like the filter should have had 3 boxes for strings to match on Title, Episode, and Description.
I tried following the setup guide from a thread in this site.
i got to the capture sources tab and added a digital source. the recording source is digital recording plugin. the setting for the device type is ATI 650 Pro (QAM). device number 1. type ATSC.
I tried using XMLTV as my EPG but it doesn't look like it has comcast listing for USA pacific region, only directv so i couldnt use it. I tried then to scan for the digital channels but i got no channels.
the coax is plugged into the DTV port of my video card.
if i instead plug the coax into analog port then i could use tuningassistant.exe to get some of my analog channels but i want the digital channels. help?

I am having pixelation problems with a Hauppauge Nova-T 500 dual DVB-T card. I also have a Hauppauge HVR 1300 which performs without pixelation on HD signal. Also, when both of these cards are installed there are some IR/IR Blaster compatibility problems. Can you suggest another dual DVB-T card that will work well with the HVR 1300?
I see on the Hauppage forums that they say they will have a DVB-T2 USB PVR stick out "before the world cup".
I know it's early days, but will GBPVR support it?
In my area they have been broadcastiing DVB-T2 BBC & ITV HD since last December. I can already view them in HD through my DVB-S tuners, but when Channels 4 & 5 join in later this year would be great to add a DVB-T2 tuner to GBPVR...
I have an intermittent problem with some recordings not playing. When I hit PLAY, I get a black screen and PVRX2 becomes unresponsive and I have to kill it with Task Manager. The most recent instance was with a cable box recording via firewire, Graphrecorder and the ATI mux. PVRX2-native log snippet attached. If this is something related to the firewire recordings, that's OK, cause I realize they are "unsupported". An additional note is that this has only occurred after switching to Win7. I could provide a chunk of the recording if that would help.
Hi,
Newb to GBpvr here. It works fantastic and I was loving the Xsuite.
Today, Xrecord is not available in the menu tree and isn't in the Config scree, although the programs are in the plugin directory and were working.
Note the same thing has happened to TvListings. Latest GBPVR Version on a Windows XP box.
