When I press the off button on the remote, the NMT menu screen stays on. I press remote a secon time and the screen flickers and the menu stays on. I can repeat this over-and-over again and the menus stays on.
I have two A-100s setup: one on a 720 HD TV using an HDMI cable and the other on an old standard 4:3 tube TV using a S-video cable. The problem only occurs on the the HD TV.
Also, on the HD TV the GBPVR menu only covers the upper left hand quadrant (more-or-less) of the screen. How can I make it cover the entire screen?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks again folks (esp. mvallevand)for all your advice!
Hi, I've double checked the following, but I hope I'm missing something simple...
I've got 1.4.7 installed as a server on one machine, client on the other. The client uses File Sharing and the shares are correctly mapped (and the same for the Directories tab).
I can view recorded programmes happily, but when I go to the EPG and try and watch live TV, the screen goes blank for a few seconds before reverting to the EPG.
I've poured over the log files and it looks like it is finding the server and requesting the channel... but then nothing happens.
I've attached the log files for both machines. I'd be grateful for any pointers.
I have a Hauppauge HVR 850 USB HDTV adapter plugged into a desktop running Vistax32. GB-PVR installed fine, but my question is this: is my particular device supported? I follow the super easy instructions, and my DEVICE TYPE is listed in the DIGITAL SOURCE CONFIGURATION, when I select it manually. If I select SHOW ONLY DETECTED DEVICES, only Hauppauge -HVR950Q and HVR950Q(QAM) pop up. So I uncheck that box and pick the correct 850 model, follow the other instructions(Schedulesdirect for EPG), and get:
YOUR EPG SOURCE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE CONFIGURED CORRECTLY. PLEASE CHECK BLAH BLAH, random(to me) words and numbers follow after that. Everything on my screen looks as it does on the tutorial file.
The ugly Haup software works and the tuner is fine, so I know Im just missing something dumb, sorry. Trying to get it myself though, a little more info on my hunt:
my pc:
.net Framework: 3.5
microsoft installer: dont know. downloading 4.5 now.
visual c runtime support: yes
directx and windows media player: 10
Thought Id found an plan b in XMLTV, but it seems like EVERY guide for it is made for experts. Anyone have a tip or trick for me to get this awesome stuff working? Or maybe a TRUE XMLtv (or alternative) tutorial for people who are used to installation wizards? Thanks much, in advance. Ive been at this for 5 hours straight. RC
Heading back to GBPVR due to the recent addition of CI support.
Glad to say the CI support works with my FireDTV satellite.
However, diseqc doesn't work correctly.
Using the diseqc options when selecting the capture source channels are found and can be successfully mapped. However, when trying to view live TV no signal is found from one of the LNB's.
Interestingly, if I change the BDA.INI FireDTV entry for SUPPORTS_BDA_DISEQC from 2 to 1, live TV will select the other LNB.
Any help in getting diseqc to work would be appreciated, as GBPVR with CI support would be the perfect solution.

Plays fine on PC with several media players. MediaInfo program says it's 720x480 resolution MPG2 file. GB-PVR immediately exits when I try to play this recording. All other recordings do the same thing since I changed codecs today to get Live TV and DVD playback working. Why is it that this process is endless and doesn't just work?
The video decoder that ships with WinDVD9 (InterVideo, now owned by Corel) causes the config utility to crash when you click on the ivivideo tab. You need to get to this tab in order to adjust any of the video settings.
If I check the .ax file I believe is involved, it's reported as IVIVIDEO decoder version 9.0.14.84.
Anyone know of a fix for this, as this decoder seems like it would be really good.
What has to be done to get 2 A-100s working on the same system? I wouldn't think running the install program a second time is the way to go. Can someone shed some light on this for a NMT newbie.
Considering the E-Great EG-M34A - is that the present "state of the art" NMT device now?
Also, currently using 2 mvp clients - can the GBPVR server handle a setup with 1 E-Great EG-M34A and 1 mvp ... or do I have to buy 2 x E-Great EG-M34A if I want to change setup?
