Tonight I had a few programs set to record. One of them (Fringe) did not record successfully. There is a 13MB file for it (not a 0 byte), but if I attempt to play it via the NMT, it hangs.

Looking at the recording logs (attached), I see a couple of errors:

2010-01-28 18:59:00.046 ERROR [5] Unexpected error checking tuning on back-to-back multirecords
2010-01-28 21:00:00.234 ERROR [5] Unexpected error checking tuning on back-to-back multirecords
2010-01-28 21:00:04.125 ERROR [5] Unexpected error checking tuning on back-to-back multirecords

And since I don't see any tuning info for Fringe, I'm thinking that it was supposed to be just continuing using the tuner from 2 20:00 shows. But the logs show:

2010-01-28 19:59:00.171 VERBOSE [5] BDARecordingSource about to start multi-record oid:6 channel:T:553250,0,0~P:3~TSID:542~V:2045~A:2043~PMT:2046~PCR:2045~N:>9.1 KMSP-DT* (000(AC3)) file:\GBPVR Videos\Fringe\Fringe_20100128_20002100.ts

2010-01-28 20:02:00.046 VERBOSE [5] Stopping multi record: 1

Which looks to me like it started to record at 19:59, but then the tuner stopped at 20:02 (after the end of the original 2 shows).

right now it is constantly green. Is there an option so it turns red when it is recording? i dont like to right click on it everytime i want to check if it is doing something. Thanks!

I've done a search on the forum, and it seems that most people agree if you only want to capture from a vcr, it's better to use a program such as Wintv. However, I cannot get WinTV to work for me with Vista. I can't get any picture with it, and I'm tired of messing with it...

I used to use GB-PVR when I had digital cable about 4 years ago, and at that time I really liked it. But now I have Dish and a DVR, so I don't really need the EPG options and all that. I'm only interested in doing manual recordings, mainly capturing old VHS tapes, and very rarely I might hook up to my DVR to capture a pre-recorded program.

So I guess what I'm needing to know, is are there any special things I should do when I install GB-PVR to try it? I mean since I won't need and won't be using EPG, how do I tell GB-PVR that? Or is there a different program (not WinTV) that would be better for me to try?

By the way, I'm on 32bit Vista, and my PVR250 is recognized by Vista.

Thanks for any help or suggestions...

Wanting to playback a long list of videos (.avi files) in a single directory in sequence. Basically, just tired of trying to get my DVD image (VOB) files to work and would rather just rename the to .avi and get them to play in sequence. thanks!

Hello, I am having strange problems with my egreat. I have 2 gbpvr servers on the same network and I access them as needed via egreat. However, sometimes when I try to access server A it logs into server B. This is driving me crazy. How can egreat access server B when I specifically direct it to server A? If only one server is on then all is ok. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?
2 Gbpvr
1 Egreatm34a

Where are the capture source definitions stored? Please don't say that they are in the same database as the epg and schedule....

BTW: Sub, did you read my suggestion in whishlist (http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=45629)?

Hey,

I read the posts about windows 7 which was helpful, but not complete. I am going to upgrade in a couple of weeks and wanted to find out if anyone know which version is best for this?

First, can I use the 64bit version with GBPVR?

Does anyone have a preference of home vs pro? I read the comparisons, and am not sure if pro will benefit the PVR.

Thanks a ton.

Hi all,

I am having what seem to be unresolvable ongoing problems as seen here: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=45288

Now, I have decided to do a complete removal of GBPVR and all device drivers so to try an older version of GBPVR (if they are still available)... but would like to know if all the new UK freeview digital transmittrer muxes will be picked up with old GBPVR versions or have they made the previous GBPVR versions obsolete?

Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.
regards.
