I've noticed that the QAM channel mappings have changed on me 2 times now in the past 6 months. I'm on Comcast in Vancouver Washington. Has anyone else had this issue and is there an easy way to rescan without manually flipping through all the QAM list and typing in the corresponding QAM number for each station?
I just bought this nifty lil remote http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...0418068342
I got it because it has easy mouse functions and means I can avoid VNC most of the time. However the buttons dont appear to be labeled exactly like the hauppage remote I have now. Is there a program that I can run that will tell me the IR code (i think it is device & button number) that I am getting from each button so I can figure out how to remap it?
I have moved from the UK to Norway and am trying to make use of the tv card again (Hauppauge Nova-T-500 DVB-T) to get the unencrypted NRK channels available on the RiksTv service.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled 1.4.7 and the K-Lite Codec Pack and somehow stumbled into getting the video working (I thought from other posts this was not possible at all). However there is not a hint of sound available.
I have also noticed that a couple of old UK recordings now playback with normal video but the audio is nothing but static in PVRX2 and WMP. I guess this means something is missing/corrupt in general?
I've been using GBPBR 1.0.8 for a long time. It works well on my system, so I continue to use it. I just got through a fresh install of XP (due to a non-GBPVR related meltdown), and I am encountering an issue with closed captions (I am in the USA). I have captions working on my recordings, however, they do not show up in Live TV mode. This used to work for me on my previous installation (same version, same hardware - Hauppauge 500). Any ideas as to what is going on? Logs are attached.
I've recently installed the DVB-T Radio plugin and whenever I click upon it in GBPVR the program crashes. Further investigation in config.exe.log gives the line below - can anyone tell me what is wrong?
Thanks
Kevin

So far I've made about a dozen attempts to record, but only one has succeeded - and I can't tell what's different.
The first problem was with the machine not waking up reliably - this I fixed by removing Scheduled.exe, which was installed with the Kworld tuner software (seemed to be overriding gbpvr's wakeful requests)
Now I schedule a recording, the machine wakes up appears to do the recording; after the allotted time I go to the recordings section and my new recodng is usually "ready" (but sometimes "failed"), but clicking on the recording produces a couple of seconds of blank screen followed by the recordings menu again.
If I dig into the place where the files are being stored (in this case I've set d:\gbpvr and d:\gbpvr\live) I see the recording of the correct name and time, with a .TS file of zero length.

there is nothing obvious in the logs. For example, this morning it should have recorded Thomas the Tank between 08:30 and 09:30 (nice short program for testing), but the recording service log showed
there was nothing in pvrx2.exe's or native's logs between 8:27 and 8:47 when I went back to look to see whether it had recorded or not.
Live TV is pausable and replays after pause, and there are traces of non-zero length .TS files around e.g. [SIZE="4"]gbepg-TC46,674166,0,0,8.ts size 16.3 MBytes
[/SIZE]which suggests that the setup can record.
I noted at another time it should have been recording, there was zero cpu load with brief spikes to about 10% every 20 seconds or so.
I don't know whether it's significant, but there appear to be three entries in the pending log for each program, e.g.

Are there any other log files in other directories ?
Any ideas on what else to check ?
I am getting memory usage of 144,104 K in Task Manager for GBPVRRecordingService.exe and 90,732 K for GPBVRTray.exe - even when in standby and not recording.
That is a whopping 250 MB when idling. I remember earlier versions running about 30 or so.
I am running XP Home SP3 32bit. Is anyone else getting usage this high?
