I find that I regularly watch maybe one letterboxed DVD, Use F7 to set it to remove letterbox, then I watch another show or movie which has the proper ratio set in the codec/container. Then I need to hit F7 to restore Auto. It would be nice if I could change a setting to configure PVRX2 to restore Auto zoom after exiting the existing playback.
After a clean install, I find that I am worse off than ever. I tried again to install the SAF, but even without any other codec packs present, it will not play MPEGS with one of my online TV players installed, so it is not an option for me. I then reinstalled what had worked for me before; QTAlternative 1.68 to handle MOV files, followed by the K-Lite Codec pack. I configured ffdshow exactly as before.
Many files play, including the Transport Streams generated by live BDA recording. However, certain MPEG1 files will not. These are the output of some of the online players I use, so I must be able to play them. PVRx2 actually crashes completely after a few seconds of trying to play them. MPC plays them fine. I haven't really installed anything else, yet.
One of the files I am testing with is a show that we watched successully and stopped halfway to go to bed, so I know that PVRx2 has been able to play it before. It was the next day that my system drive crashed.
I carefully registered (and unregistered) a few of the filters that I thought might have been on my system before (including MPV, which was definitely there and so I left it). I also registered (and unregistered) some of the more likely codecs with MPC. It occurs to me now that perhaps VLC installs some filters, so I will install it next.
However, I am no longer even convinced that this is a codec problem.
I've been using Slimm GB-PVR and GBPVRcli for a while and i've noticed that lately SOME recordings are missing from the tray menu and they don't show up even after restarting the PC or the tray util. the auto-purge for missing recordings is disabled in the config xml.
The PVRX2 is showing and playing all recordings without issues. is this a known issue for which there's a quick fix? i'm using the latest 1.8 version.
I have had a problem since I installed ML3 a while back. The database is populated, but the front end does not see any of the tracks. It has been unusable. I gave up based on the the app development stalling. As with the others, I miss the movement on the app, but fully respect and support the reason.
My issue is that I have not been able to successfully do a complete uninstall of ML to do a clean install of either version. They both show in the setup even when all the files are removed. Can anyone provide some guidance to correct this issue? I don't mind being guided through database changes, but I'm not strong enough there to do it on my own.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
i'm using a dvb-t dongle on windows 7 in israel, and i have a few problems:
1)the major problem - in almost every recording, every few minutes, it suddenly jumps a few minutes forward, and i have to rewind it.
i'm using ts mux. when i choose dvr-ms i can't multi record...
2)we have 5 channels broadcasted on the same frequency. the program allows me to record all 5 of them at the same time, but if i'm recording one and want to view another channel live, i can't. how can i fix it?
3)EPG - right now we have EPG for only 2 channels, and it's 2 hours late. until they'll fix it - how can i manually solve it? i tried importing an xmltv file, but when i do that, it just adds the channels on the xmltv as different channels, and for the real 5 channels that i get, i don't have EPG.
What is it:
sTranscode, as the name implies, is a media transcoder.
It's goal is to create a high-quality media file using modern codecs and container that is compatibile with both PC's and hardware decoders. A modern CPU is suggested for transcoding.
All required software for transcoding is included.
Input
- TS file
- MPG file
- VIDEO_TS folders from DVD's
- Techincally anything that mencoder can decode should work but focus is on the above three formats
- NOTE: DVR-MS is NOT supported
Output
- MKV
Video - AVC(h.264)
Audio - MP3, AAC, VORBIS, or AC3(copied from source)
Features:
- Cut/trim using comskip files
- Autocrop (via comskip or mplayer)
- AutoIVTC
- Auto-Deinterlace
- Supports Video and Audio profiles
- Auto scanning and queueing of files to transcode
- DVD Subtitle support (hardcoded and muxed)
- Animorphic output supported
- PCH(Popcorn Hour)/DXVA compatibility
- Logfile creation
- GBPVR database update with new name if running GBPVR client (PC, MVP, PCH)
- MKV chapter creation using comskip files if cutting is not desired
Quickstart:
- Extract sTranscode archive to directory of choice
- Drop source file on _guided_transcode.bat
- Choose options and wait for transcode to finish
Playback from PC
- Install Haali Media Splitter (For MKV playback) - http://haali.cs.msu.ru/mkv/
- Install h.264 decoders of choice (ffdshow, CoreAVC, MPC HC, ATI, NVIDIA, etc)
- Install audio decoder of choice (ffdshow, etc)
Comskip.ini setup (required for cutting, chapter creation, and one form of crop detection)
- Add the following lines to the bottom of your comskip.ini file
verbose=10
output_edl=1
output_edlp=1
2-pass encoding
- sTranscode performs 2-pass encoding using two methods
- You can specify a custom size or choose option 0 in guided_transcode to pick from some popular sizes.
- If no size is specified, sTranscode will decide the best size using pre-determined sizes that will make archiving to DVD5 media simple.
transcode.ini
- Because of the extra time used to perform auto-IVTC and auto-crop, those values are saved in the show directory and are used in future transcodes. Custom settings may be added if desired.
Profile
- There are a number of video profiles to choose from. To make a custom profile, open of the current profiles, change the name(no spaces) and add/change the values to your desire.
When I pass System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Next or PageUp to the OnKeyDown function is it expected that UiSimpleList scrolls by x-1 and UiList scrolls by x (rows="x")
