Hi,

I'm considering buying an Acer Revo R3600 as a Christmas toy and using it as a replacement server for my faithful P4. Attracted mainly by the low power consumption, since I leave the server on 24/7.

I've read a lot about this unit as a client, but is any experienced using it as a server? Any pitfalls that don't seem obvious?

Thanks

The power button on the MCE remote works fine to wake the PC from full standby, but if the PC has half woken itself to record a show (i.e the monitor is still off) then no buttons on the remote will fully wake it and turn on the monitor.
Pressing a key on the keyboard wakes the PC fine.
I can't figure out why a key stroke emulated through HIP is treated differently to a real keystroke by windows.
Any ideas?

I have had my system for a couple of years and everything works pretty well considering I have a fairly low end system from HD. My problem is I have a couple of HD QAM channels that when you first run GBPVR the video is nice and smooth. However, after a minute or two it starts stuttering. Going back to the menu screen and then back doesn't help, you immediately get the stuttering again. The only way to take away the stuttering is to shut GBPVR down and then run it again. And then again after a minute or two the stuttering is back. This doesn't happen on every channel, just a couple. I was hoping someone might have an idea or two to solve the problem.

I have tried both the PureVideo and Cyberlink decoders and get the same results. Other decoders such as FFDShow and others simply can't put out smooth HD video on my low end system. Like I said, on other channels(others that are 1080i) I have no problems with stuttering.

Hi all,

Can I get some info on any cards you are using by Avermedia that "WORK" with QAM and analog. I am trying to decide on replacement of HVR-1600 and HVR-1800. These do not tune clear QAM on Windows 7 64bit. I also have the HVR-1950 and it will tune perfectly on the same two cable drops and two different PC's but the 1600 and 1800 won't. Also the hi-def Toshiba tv will tune on the same cable drops that these cards won't.

I'm afraid of the 2250 now because of the problems with these and the reviews on NewEgg about the 2250.

Thanks

Hi all,
Firstly, MovieWiz is just superb - well done and thanks.
Unfortunately though I really do think that Tahoma font looks completely aweful and I want to change it.

Have navigated to the skin2 folder and selected 'Slick' which is the skin I am using - but for some reason there are no entried at all in the MovieWiz folder so I am presuming it must be finding its skin setting from somewhere else.

Have gone into all the .xml files for MovieWiz for the both the Community and default skin packs and changed all instances of Tahoma to a different font then saved... yet the Tahoma font still displays.

I have no idea now why I cant change the font and really hope somebody can help.

Thanks so much in advamce

Could anyone using this remote successfully with GBPVR please let me know what software they use and the configuration file?
I'm using HIP & its working fairly well, I just cant get the auto-repeat to work well.

For some reason all my recordings for the the past 2 days were only 6 bytes long but didn't show up as failed.

I rebooted and it works again now. Enclosed is my log file which has the above error when tuning. Can someone tell me what can cause this error and how I can prevent this from happening again?

Sub:

Old problem returned.

Recording hangs, locking up the tuner. Status says NCIS recording, but time is over. Nothing else can record or watch TV. File size not growing, failed at 8:27pm. Reestart recording service and next recording starts OK.

Has happened a few times in the last week. Am running prior version (one back, I think), have not got around to updating.

Recording DVR-MS format. In the past tried removing comskip, tried TS, etc.

This ONLY happens on CBS (ch 13), only in HD shows. I beleive but cannot confirm that it happens at the start or end of a commercial break, possibly a change of resolution. The portion recorded is un-watchable in DVR-ms. In TS, it was watchable up to the failure.

This is happening nightly, but not every show that is set for record. Happens back-to-back and single shows. More importantly, last week it happened when watching live TV (no timeshift, plane old live). Screen goes to black with the lost signal notice. Switch to TV, and the show is playing, but recording service is locked on PC. Shows "live TV ch 13" even after exiting GBPVR.

I am betting the logs don't show anything.

Is there any other type of logging we can do to capture this? Unfortunately, cannot repeat on demand, but it WILL fail within a night or two.

Willing to work to help solve this.

BTW, I solved for quite some time by going to SD instead of HD for that channel. All other channels record fine in HD. Then in AUgust I changed back to HD, and it was fine until about two weeks ago.

Thanks for your time.

Hi JW

I just downloaded Episode Tweaker from the wiki as some of my recordings got messed up during when importing mpeg files.

During the install, I received a couple of messages about "already having a newer version of this file", so I kept the latest files intact.

When I try EpisodeTweaker I get the error message below.

This is running 64-bit windows 7

Any help gratefully appreciated.
