Hello All,

I have just installed the latest GB-PVR onto Windows7 and am having problems.

I have a Kworld-115 ATSC/Analog card (it is a Philips SAA713x). It is functioning properly in Windows7 (the TotalMedia app that came with it works).

I can actually run PVRX2 but cannot run the Config.exe to customize or configure GB-PVR. It hangs and gives me a pop up that says "GB-PVR Configuration has stopped working" and I have to close the program.

I have tried running as administrator, all types of 'compatibility' but cannot get it run. I've attached the logs (i think)

Thanks

Hi All,

Would like to say well done on a great stable, light, easy to navigate product!

After trying nearly every product on the market that will do TV/Media I found GB-PVR to be the most stable, with added plug-ins it will do most of all the other products on the market.

Thanks for a great product!

I will try to release a new theme in the next couple of months when time lets me

I've just built a new system to use a second HD-PVR. system specs at the end. running Xp Pro sp3.
Installed GB-PVR 1.4.7 and set up everything. Great Work as Always Sub! I had to put in a pvr-150 just for the remote and blaster. The HD-PVR is rev E1 and the blaster is still very flaky even after over one year on the market, no recording off the pvr-150. Stb is a Pace hd.

1- no option to delete or transcode or anything on the left side in the video library, it's in the 1.3.11 on my other similar system which as been running since last December with a rev C1 HD-PVR, also with a pvr-150 for the remote and blaster. The firewire control stopped working after 2months and it never worked since:confused:

2- no volume control in music or net radio, also works on the other system. All the options in config are the same.

3- The HD-PVR does not show any sign of activity when recording but records fine, the other system at leasts lights up when recording or trying to watch live tv. Also no live TV, get a black screen for 2 seconds and goes back to the main menu.

Any clues?

The system: M3A78-EM (disabled on-board hd3200),Athlon 2 250, 4gb corsair, ATI hd4670 hdmi, 2 seagates 1tb,1 wd 500gb, LG bd/dvd writer,
HD-PVR, LG 42" 1080i TV.
GB-PVR 1.4.7

NB: the HD-PVR is powered off the Antec 650 ps, so turns off and on when the system does. So it as a clean filtered 5.16v when on.

Sub, another donation coming your after this is sorted out
Thanks.

I have just built a new PC and installed Windows 7 home plus 2 Hauppauge cards taken from existing machines Nova DVBS2 and Nova DVBT.

I have managed to tune in both cards and download the satellite channels using XMLTV and in the case of the DVBS2 card and directly from Freeview for the DVBT card. I have 2 problems :-

1. The Channel page in config shows approximately 38 channels but tv guide in PRX2 only 20. The Freeview channels are not showing

2. I can watch live TV DVBS channels but recorded TV does not start.

Both cards were working fine in my older machines.

Thanks for your assistance.

I'm 80% ure I've seen this on this forum previously, but just can't find the magic word to find it...

Whenever I open Preferences an installer process starts. It canot complete so I stop it at the end.
It says "Please wait, until Windows configures GBPVR"
The it asks for the GBPVR09912.msi file, which I've downloaded and tried to use, but no luck.

It starts again, and sometimes again.

This is when the preferences oen and everything seems to work perfecty - it is just annoying.

GBPVR 1.4.7, Windows XP SP3,

I have spent some time seeing if others are having this same issue but not found anything. Most seem to have issues right through recordings.

My 1080i recordings (TV3 NZ DTT) play fine until I use skip or fwd. After I use either of these I get and almost strobe effect on video with movement. A pause and un-pause will sometimes fix it as will a small skip back. It only seems to be an issue with the 1080i recordings, the 720p seem fine.

My first thought was my video card drivers and settings, but I have found changes to these have no effect on this issue. I can live with it but would like to sort if possible

Cheers

Hi

I would love to hear about some HDTV setups. I have a fairly low-spec setup(see signature) which i fine for MPEG 2 recording and playback. Some channels now broadcasts in H.264 MPEG4 and HE-ACC audio. I have tried many setups (Cyberlink, ArcSoft, monogram of sound), but the system can not cope.
The Media Center should be in the livingroom, so it should be relatively quiet. It should also be not-so-expensive!

What are your HDTV setups/specs??

The only thing I now use my tv remote for is to power the tv on and Off. I habe bouth a pvr-1600 and an HP media Center recome. Is is possible to reconfigure a button on one of them to do this? I assume that would involve haveing the PC remove send a different device code for that one key. I have looked around for a program that would display the incoming IR code so I could figure out what I need to send -- but so far no luck. Iknow I could buy an expensive Harmony but we have three tv's and that would be a lot of money to add just 1 extra function I need.

I think its been asked for before but here goes

wish #1
In tv guide it would be cool if it showed like it does in the web scheduler
as in once its finished recording it shows a different colour and you can watch it from there

wish#2
in recordings have a tab called "today" or "recent" or similar
which shows pending,while recording and recorded all in one list so you dont have to switch between folders/tvguide to find a recording that you know is happening that day

Thanks for considering my wishes :p

Hi. I have multiple tuners installed and had a scheduled recording going on on one of the tuners. However for live tv I was prompted that no tuner is available and I will have to cancel a manual recording. The live tv was working ok yesterday during multiple recordings going on. I changed or installed nothing new except that i set up a huge list of scheduled recordings last night and there were some conflicts also.
For your kind advice. Regards.
