Hi!

Would be nice if the preview of scanned channels could use the mdapi filters, so that preview of encrypted channels would work. As of now only FTA channels show up in the preview.

This would be nice for situations like we have in Sweden where some channels show up in different Audio configurations. And sometimes the description is more than cryptic like "(Audio #2)". If preview worked one could test and try the channels before selecting which ones to eventually enable.

Not absolutely neccessary funtionality as there are other ways to get around this, but very nice.

Not sure when this happened, but I'm seeing a recording show up in the logs that I've never created. I noticed only after upgrading to a fresh install to version 1.4.7.

The mysterious log entries are in the pending.log file:
The View From the Bay 9/16/2009 3:00:00 PM - 9/16/2009 4:00:00 PM capture-source:2 tuning:7

I only noticed this when I went to record Mad Money and got a conflict with "The View From the Bay".

I don't know if it occured due to the export/import from 1.3.11 to 1.4.7 recordings or it was due to the way I setup another recording called "The View" for my wife. When I did that from the backend PC (my server using PVRX2) I performed a search to find all the "the view" entries. Then I selected only "The View". Then I selected to record entire season on the channel and keep 5 episodes.

Even though I don't see "The View From the Bay" show up in my recordings, it keeps getting listed in the pending.log file even after removing "The View" reoccuring recording.

How can I delete this mysterious recording?

BTW, I looked into my previous version 1.3.11 log files and this issue didn't appear there. I've attached my log files from current 1.4.7.

Clarifying steps:
1. Saved all recordings by exporting from 1.3.11
2. Copied 1.3.11 directories and files to backup location
3. Uninstalled 1.3.11
4. Install fresh 1.4.7
5. Setup 1.4.7 capture sources
6. Imported 1.3.11 recordings into 1.4.7
7. Deleted the reoccuring recordings
8a. re-entered reocurring recordings manually (not sure if this step was necessary but read when you remove a recording device and re-add it back that a prevously re-occuring show may attach to the old device and not record properly)
8b. Re-entered re-ocurring schedules by using the search Guide Setup to record "The View" (all episodes on this channel) to save last 5 recordings by performing a search and typing "The view" in the search. found the entries and selected 1st date.
10. Search for "Mad Money" and did the same setup to record season (all episodes on this channel) to save last 5 recordings
11. Searched for conflicts and Mad Money was conflicting with "The View from the Bay" ?????? (appears "The View" is getting confused with "The view from the bay"
12. Removed Mad money schedule and rescheduled it.
13. Searched for conflicts and again saw it.
14. Removed "The View from the bay" conflicts
15. Removed "The View" reoccuring schedule
16. Recreaded "The view" reoccuring schedule
15. pending.log file still showing entries for "The view from the Bay" even after removing the "The View" re-occuring, but can't delete tall the "The view from the Bay" recordings from the console...

- added ability to schedule to watch a future show. In TV Guide, press play on a show in the future and it'll highlight blue. App will start live tv and switch to that channel at the specified time. Pretty basic, no popup reminders on the screen.

Hi Sub,

I was experimenting with the above feature and this is not working right for me. Not a deal breaker by all means, consider it more as a report. Many more important things to work on.

When I am watching live tv, I open the guide (guide is overlay on live TV) and select a future program for GBPVR to switch to by pressing play in the guide, it does turn blue, i then press guide again and continue watching what I was watching. When the time comes to switch, it does not, it continues on the same channel i was watching before it was suppose to switch channels.

At this point, I hit Exit on the remote (esc) and it then switches channels to the channel it was suppose to switch to.

I am using 1.4.7 and it setup to always timeshift LiveTV. Today I went to channel 8 and watched NCIS. I had to leave so I recored from 8:52pm to the end of the show 9:01pm. Then I returned and exited LiveTV and went to the Recordings and whatched. I exited and if I use the GBPVR Tray or EWA the tuner shows that it is still recording NCIS. I look in the LiveTV Buffer directory and the file NCIS_1_20090915_20002101.mpg is still growing. So I am not sure if this is normal. I have posted this question before, but I did not post the logs. The logs are attached. THANKS!

I often archive my recordings to another dirve - which I access through the 'video library' feature. The comskip works great but once I move it, I loose the metadata. Is there an 'easy' way to move files, yet retain the program information?

I have Weather2 set up so I can view the weather for several cities. In Weather plugin Version 1, I seem to remember that I could switch between cities while looking at the Forecast. In Weather2 if I am viewing the Forecast for a city and switch to another city, the plugin drops back to the Current conditions screen.

I would like to see it be able to stay on the same type of screen when switching between cities.

There are some channels that I used to receive that I no longer receive from my provider. I can't seem to get rid of these channels from my EPG. I removed them from schedulesdirect but they still show up in my tv guide listing, which is frustrating. How can I remedy this problem?

I am considering adding a "Tips & Tricks" section to the wiki for the NMT, as we are now telling users to not read old messages as they may not be relevant any more where do they (me ) find out what can be done & how to do it (in really simple step by step terms so simple people like me can understand).

Something like to quickly start GB-PVR from the selection screen on the NMT

The software finds the device as ZAP E3C but does not power on when tuning in the channels or when using the software ? (red light should come on the usb stick) the rubbish software that come with it turns it on but crashes half way in the scan for channels so only half the channels and the software is :eek: to use any ideas please

I have a slight problem where PCH wont connect to my GBPVR server.

I issue the WOL command through the PCH which wakes the server without issue but mvpmcx2 wont launch the interface and the PCH just return to the main interface.

I have tried a PC client to connect the the GBPVR server and this connected fine.

If I reboot the GBPVR server then all is OK.

Currently running 1.4.7 but the previous version of GBPVR was the same.
Also running mvpmcx 2 2.5 installed through the NMT Community Installer.

I have attached the logs, but nothing has been written to them with the latest attempt to connect.
