The way GB-PVR reuses keyboard shortcuts is killing me. It would be nice if every function had it's own keyboard shortcut. I'm trying to use Firefly remote and EventGhost. One problem is I want to use the Up and Down buttons to skip over the commercials in comskip but then I have to assign those buttons with 0+cntrl+right/left. cntrl-B seems to be used a lot but I want to press the OK button for the progress bar to show up during a movie. I can't just assign it because cntrl-B is used throughout the app. If showing the progress bar had it's own unique key combination then I could just add it to the functions I want the OK key to handle. Has it ever been considered to make keyboard shortcuts configurable like in config.xml?
I've just acquired a Pinnacle 7010ix from eBay, which I bought because it has two DVB-S tuners - but GBPVR thinks there's only one DVB-S tuner.
I've installed the latest BlackGold 3450 drivers, which seem to work fine. In the absence of two detected DVB-S tuners, I created a second tuner entry in Config and used the same device name/entry as the first one but called it device 2. On scanning channels using the digital mapping dialog box however, no video appears for that 'second' tuner.
I have an encrypted channel that is also the one and only channel (to my knowledge) that has DVB subtitles. When viewing, regardless of DVB subtitles checkbox setting in config - the channel always opens without video, saying it is encrypted. Although I can see in the multidec plugin that it is getting decryption keys, and audio is working. After a minute or so it hangs with the message "No signal", which also hangs PVRX2...
I have a DVB-T 399UR PlusTV from kworld (can record 2 programs at once) used with the latest version of gbpvr - 1.4.7. I am located in Melbourne Australia and am looking for help or advice on the follwing:
1. The EPG source in the config is set to DVB EPG Broadcast.....this works as I get data for all channels except our local channel 9......Always displays "no show details"....only this one channel
2. If I record non hd channels, the playback is perfect but if I record any hd channel, I cannot play it back on the pc nor will it stream to my tv. When starting the playback.....I will see a few moving frames with audio but then it just freezes
My system is win xp pro sp3
1gb ram
sys disk = 160gb
250gb dedicated recording disk
Any help or assistance with the above 2 issues would be greatly appreciated as no doubt you can tell from my wording I am very new to this.
I have an xmltv EPG setup that works really well, but it lacks two channels, CNN and Kanal 12 which is a local channel.
DVB EPG works for these two, but xmltv is far superior for the other channels.
I would really like to be able to select per channel what EPG source to use. Now that is a global setting for the whole capture card which does not make much sense when xmltv (or other EPG source) coverage isn't 100%.
With the 1.4.7 version I cannot pop up the GBPVR client on my work room computer and schedule a recording from the TV guide. Tried this on two different computers with different OS (XP and Win 7 x64). All other things are as usual. I can view live TV and recordings etc, just not schedule new ones. From the server machine it works of course.
Hi,
In a fit of stupidity yesterday I decided to add a freesat card (hauppauge S2)
To the PC , it already had a Dual freeview usb (haupauge) which was working
fine and dandy.
Since I added the freesat card and tried to config its channels it has buggered
up some of the freeview channels now :-(
Is there anyway via some sqllite commands to extract out the channel tuning config for a particaular tuner ?
Is there any way to them modify the extracted info (to change to to another tuner) and then import it ?
That way when you have two identical tuners , you dont have to manually
configure the same data twice ( which is painfull )
Some changes to the map channels tab could makes things so much easier:
Such as a best guess button , it would read a channel name , the go through
the scancache file (from the bottom up) and do a best guess fit at assigning the names together.
A filter bar above the right hand side chane info , so when you have 100's of
channels its not such a chore to fidn the right one you are after (especially if there a duplicate entries and ONE is wrong)
And lastly , has someone got a freeview and freesat scan cache file for the last week they could post for me please.
hi
i was thinking about a feature that will continue to play a movie even if its split into multipule files.
i use bsplayer on my laptop and if i have a movie that is split into multipule files for example
The Abyss - cd1
The Abyss - cd2
The Abyss - cd3
then the gbpvr player will stop after each file (usually its in the peak of an action scene - murphy's law i guess).
can it be implemented that if a file is split into multuple files, the movie will continue?
i download ac3 or DTS movies and they generally arrive in 2 or 3 files.
i can always merge them into one but merging the subtitle files are a pain.
thanks for creating this awsum awsum program.
if you have 5 minute to spear, it will be cool to implement maybe skype with video and audio support plugin, that way you can really have a central computer.
