Is there any reason why a brand new Hauppauge HVR-2200 (PAL version of the HVR-2250) is only recording at 3500 Kbits/sec when I have set the medium quality (default) settings at 6000 Kb/sec and peak at 9000 Kb/sec?
This card is a replacement for a PVR500 which worked o.k. but I had a sometimes the famous timeline problem in spite of the registry patch and was not so happy with the analog picture quality. It was however recording at the correct bitrates.
Is it still true that the HVR-2200 cannot record at more then 6000 Kb/sec?
The webservice mvpmcx2 (2.5) starts GB-PVR without any problems. However, after quit the application (hit USB-Eject twice on the remote) and activate again mvpmcx2, the message "Request can't be processed" appears on the screen. After reboot the NMT (Egreat M34A) mvpmcx2 starts GB-PVR.
This utility is for anyone who is having issues with the channel scanning reporting the wrong video PID or video type for channels found in the scan. It will only work on ATSC/QAM tuning strings and should not be used for DVB.
It can also be used to remove all encrypted channel entries from your scan cache.
Unzip the package to the folder of your choice. The recommended location is:
Code:
[GBPVR Program Folder]\Third Party\Tuning String Repair
But it can be installed anywhere. The included System.Data.SQLite.dll is the same as the one in the GB-PVR 1.4.7 package but a copy must be in the same folder as the utility so I included it.
Usage:
GBPVR scanning should be performed before using the utility (it can't repair tuning strings that don't exist).
Channels do not need to be mapped.
If Config is running, exit the channel mapping screen before using the utility.
Run the utility and select the capture source for which you wish to fix the tuning string information. (Only digital capture sources will be listed.)
If you have already mapped channels for that capture source, select the "Fix database entries" option to avoid having to remap.
Selecting "Remove encrypted channels" will clear all encrypted channels from the scan cache file to make mapping easier.
Press the "Fix" button to apply the changes to the selected capture source.
A popup will appear informing you of the number of changed entries in the scan cache file and in the database (if applicable).
Restart the Recording Service. (If Config is running, the service will be restarted automatically when selecting "OK" to exit Config.)
Considerations:
Database entry fixes will only apply to capture sources that have a scan cache. If you used JavaWiz's BDA Channel Mapping tool to copy mappings, this tool will not work on the capture sources that did not have a scan performed. You can run the utility on the capture source that you scanned and then use the BDA Channel Mapping tool to propagate the entries to the other capture sources as you did before.
Only unencrypted entries are changed in the scan cache file.
Only database entries that correspond to scan cache entries are changed. If your channels were renamed using the Silicondust lineup server, you may need to remap them from the new scan cache entries. (I may provide a fix for this later.)
Is anyone else having problems with mc2xml program guide? Worked fine until updating Monday afternoon, now "no show details" for the OTA guide. I have not made any changes on my end. I'm thinking the problem is not with GB-PVR but with the service, emptying epg, then updating epg does not help. I use mc2xml also for my cable channels and that portion is working as it should.

Been using gbpvr for a lot of years now... re-installing upgrades in the same directory. I noticed the other day that I still have jetcomp.exe in .\gbpvr with a datestamp of 8/11/1999... since gbpvr isn't using the .mdb database anymore, I wondered if this was just left-over trash that I could delete without messing up my installation.
I've got a HDHomeRun running the latest 20090830 firmware and GBPVR 1.4.7 on a fresh install of Windows 7 (32bit). Windows Firewall is off. I run a channel scan in the HDHomeRun software and pick up 44 channels, and the tuner light blinks on the front of the HDHomeRun while the scan is in progress. I then configure a tuner in GBPVR config and attempt to scan for channels, but get no channels, and no indication that GBPVR is even communicating with the HDHomeRun. Any ideas?
I have GBPVR working fine with my HVR-2250 tuner card, but I am having no luck setting up my client/ server so I can watch my files and stream live TV from my server box in Cleveland and watch on my client computer in FL.
Sever is XP Home and Client is Vista Business 32 bit.
[COLOR="Sienna"]
My goals:
1) Stream live TV over the net like the sling box pro.
2) Stream live TV over the home network.
3) Set my server computer to record using the web and home network
4) Watch files on my server over the net(not home network) to my client[/COLOR]
I have read the WIKI and many of the threads on Networking, but it just is not clear on how to set up the Client to to search the web for the proper DSN address. I have turned off my firewall on the Server and still can not see the web page to set the recorder over the web. http://000.000.00.00:7647/gbpvr/index.aspx (using my DSN number for my wifi router).http://111.222.33.44:7647/gbpvr/Login.aspx does not work either.
Should I be using the DSN of the computer itself? If so where do I fine the DSN in XP?
I have set the GBPVR file folders on the server for sharing over the network as instructed on my C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\ and F: drive (record folder).
Under instruction #6 on the WIKI under Networking it says: At the right side of the page, there will be 4 fields (Server, recordings share, live tv buffer share, Database share. Fill these in with the serverâs name and the three shares that you created.
Do I need to place the DSN number there and then the folders of just the home network name and destination?
Any cheat sheet instruction sheet would be helpfull. I will try again from the Wiki under PC Client. Thank you for your help
