I would like to try and find a solution to my channel changing control issue. I had a working system that correctly changed channels through the serial ports on my (2) D10-1000, using the one integrated com port on the motherboard, and an add-on com port through pci slot. Anyway my motherboard died, and I repalced it with a new t-series Biostar board with the basic same configuration as before (win xp pro, .net 3.5, gbpvr 1.47) Now the directv.exe utility will not change channels on their respective d10's. The windows executable directv change control works perfectly, but the command line version will not.

I have run the debug version as stated in cheval earlier posts and have those log files, if anyone is interested. Any help would be greatly .appreciated http://forums.gbpvr.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Hi,

I have two TV tuner cards, a TerraTec Cinergy C PCI HD and a Techotrend C-1501 Budget. Both are configured and working without any problems when watching SD channels. But for HDTV it's a different case: every time I use the TerraTec card to switch to a HDTV channel the "no signal" error appears. That happens on various HDTV channels on various transponders. But if I use the Technotrend card, it works without a flaw.

Is there something I can do to solve this problem? I have added my logs: the last log was created when I used the TerraTec card to switch to a HDTV channel ("ARTE") and the log before when I used the Technotrend card. By the way when I use the "Config" program and click on such a HDTV channel I can hear audio but no video is displayed, with both cards. SDTV channels are displayed correctly.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Sorry, total noob here. I am trying to get my computer to work as a dvr, and have been looking into getting a remote for the computer.

I have a Hauppauge WinTV-PVR 150 card, but the one that came without the remote. I am currently running windows xp pro, SP3. I need a remote that will work with gbpvr, and at the same time control the set top box from direct tv. I have looked on ebay and have found mce remotes that come with a remote, receiver and blaster.

my question is, i don't have windows xp mce 2005 installed. Can i use this remote without having mce installed? Can i get it configured to run with gbpvr?

Thanks guys

Well all I've asked Santa for this year is to sort out the GBPVR Wiki Glossary page that some of us have worked very hard on here:

http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Manual/Glossary

It is now 'live' in as much as it is listed in main index under manual with a link to glossary.

I worked out that with the missing entries if we could fill a letter a day that would take us up until Christmas Eve. Then I could relax on the 25th.

I know that most don't bother with documentation threads but in Christmas spirit! Anyone?

All charity knowledge and word donations most warmly welcome with a virtual mince pie.

We're starting with C for Christmas:

Missing entries:

CAM - Conditional Access Module {more info needed?}. Also see SoftCAM.
Capture Card - {more info needed?}
CI - Common Interface {more info needed?}

Please fill in the C's? Just post it, PM it, I'll put it in unless you want to tweak Wiki yourself!

Cheers

OK I mistakenly called VideoLibrary "Video Archive" in my last thread and it got moved to nosupportland. Actually the issue is with the built-in VideoLibrary. If it's still being supported, please continue reading.

I have a corresponding jpg for each directory and media file in VideoLibrary so that VideoLibrary can display their thumbnails. After I drill a few levels down and navigate around for a while, VideoLibrary would invariably start "forgetting" thumbnails. Thumbnails that were displayed previously went blank. I had to restart gbpvr for the thumbnails to be displayed again. Anyone else see this problem?

I have been running GBPVR on a couple of client machines for about a year. Today I decided to conform the two and up loaded the FFMpeg codecs and uninstalled the old CC??? codecs. The FFMpeg codecs are what I am using on the host and the other client.

Now I can not get MP4 files to play at all. They start and then stop immediately without showing any video or audio. My MP2 files have audio but no video.

I tried a complete uninstall then reinstall and I still have the same result.

Any help will be appreciated. Logs attached.

I can't get Web Radio to work.

I set logging in Config to DEBUG and started PVRX2 and tried to play something in Web Radio. Attached is the PVRX2.exe log.

UPDATE: The attached file is not the one I meant to upload. Ignore it.

Hi - I just installed GBPVR today (looking for a good alternative to Media centre) I am running XP pro with a Leadtek Winfast DTV 1000T tuner card. everything seems OK apart from when I do the channel scan, no channels are found. I do not think it is anything specific to GBPVR as i installed the Winfast PVR 2 software and the same thing happens.

I know the problem is not with the tuner or drivers as MythTV running on Linux works OK mmm?

Hope someone can help as i have run out of ideas.

Thanks Andy

Folks,

First I want to say GREAT JOB on this software, I have reviewed and tested many otheers and I like this the best.

I have the latest GBPVR installed on windows XP SP3, on a e6600 dual core box.

Everything works great, however, I am baffled as to how to hook up the FM RADIO from the 1950 into the GBPVR software. I have FM Radio on the plugins list, but no edit options, I have the FM Radio softwar from hauppauge installed on my desktop and it works. I just can't seem to connect the dots to plug it into the GBPVR.

Any tricks to this? Stepped instructions would be greatly appreciated, if anyone has gotten this to work.

Thanks in advance for any help
