align="xxx" & valign="xxx" for DrawImage filename="@xxx"

I don't know if I should be posting this in the wishlist or the developers forum but it is something I haven't been able to get working so if it already works please let me know what I am doing wrong.

I would like to at times be able to dictate where on the screen an image displayed like I can with text using align="xxx" & valign="xxx"

in this example

<DrawImage filename="RecordingInProgress.png" loc="0,0" size="100,100" fixedAspectRatio="true"/>
it displays the image full width & approx 1/3 height in the center of the screen

this example
<DrawImage filename="RecordingInProgress.png" loc="0,0" size="100,100" fixedAspectRatio="true" valign="Bottom"/>
displays exactly the same as does
<DrawImage filename="RecordingInProgress.png" loc="0,0" size="100,100" fixedAspectRatio="true" valign="Top"/>

I just went through 2 days of abuse trying to figure out why my 801e usb stick would scan for broadcast channels and not find any or return any errors during the scan. I can get 50+ channels with the bundled software, so obviously, something was wrong. After searching the forums I noticed I'm not the first one to have this problem.

I don't have cable but tried some QAM scans anyway to see what would happen and wound up getting a couple of broadcast channels. After a little more experimenting with whurlston's qam.ini's, and some comparison to the atsc freq specs, I realized what was going on. The frequencies from the QAM scans that pulled broadcast channels were using the video freq for the channels, not the assigned atsc carrier freq. In the lower 13 channel slots these are roughly the same but above that range the video freq. is roughly 1mhz higher than the atsc carrier freq for that channel. I.E., in slot 2 the video freq is 55250 and the atsc carrier freq is 55310 but in slot 15 the video freq is 477250 and the atsc carrier freq is 476310. It appears that whurlstons center freq based qam.ini is using the video freqs and without that I would never have figured this out, so, thanks man

I made an all.ini that uses the video freqs for broadcast tv and voila, I ran a new scan and had 50+ channels in the list.

So, for those of you wishing I'd just get to the point, sorry for being so long winded

Here is an all.ini file that uses the video frequencies for the broadcast channels, replace your current one with this one and you should be good to go for over the air broadcast channels.

Also, I had created my own entry in the bda.ini thinking that might be the issue, but the first "Pinnacle HD Stick Pro" setting in the stock bda.ini file works fine.

Hope this is useful to someone other than me

This is not a criticism but just wondered if this is the longest period of time between a gbpvr version update??

Having problems with my guide so I thaught I'd finally try this prog and see if it would help me out. Already stuck. How do I load my guide from SD?

I accidentally moved the directory (using windows explorer) containing the recordings. I have moved it back but gbpvr still doesn't "see" them. How can I get them back in gbpvr. Thanks.

So Rogers recently changed there channel lineup so I have had to re-do my SD account. I Deleted my recording profile and started from scratch (to make everything easier). But when I reload everything into GBPVR at least 1 channel is in the wrong place. Channel 303 HBO2 is not showing up in the 300's. It is however showing up at the bottom of my guide (right near the end). I have checked in my setup and it is labeled 303 and comes right between 302 and 304 on my channel list, but not in the guide. help?

EDIT: Just double checked, there are 6 channels added to the bottom of the guide and not in there correct order.

Having sorted out the main problems last night (Thanks) I'm just left with 2 lesser problems I'd like to get to the bottom of. I've actually had these for some time but I assumed they were because my Windows installation needed redoing.

Now with a new XP installation from scratch I'm still getting what appears to be a very slow frame rate. It normally starts OK for maybe half a mninute then appears to drop to 10 or 15 fps (at least that's how I interpret the jumpy picture), it's watchabl;e but annoying.

I'm also getting lag on picture, the picture can end up 5 - 10 seconds behind the sound, switching chanells resets it.

I can live with both but it does occasionally get on the nerves :-)

Thanks

So my local Microcenter had a deal on the previous generation Mac Mini (Intel Core 2 Duo, but no on board hdmi).
Still - for 350 bucks, I got a $100 OS, and a great little MVP at worst.

Anyway - my primary goal is to use this thing to run GBPVR in my spartan living room. My TV is only 720P, so I don't need to push 1080 for another few years. By then we will be driving to work in flying electric cars.

Anyway - I am giving it a shot. Any advice out there? I will update this with results.

We have 3 shows in recurring that do not overlap however they
are reported as phantom conflicts. The shows record fine but how can
the phantom conflict messages be removed?

I set GBPVR to record the Tudors on BBC1 for my wife last night as for some strange reason she wanted to keep it.

Sods law it started 13 minutes late because of the athletics but our Sky box detected the change of time and recorded the programme.

Is there any way that GBPVR can detect time changes for programs set using the Radio Times and XMLTV.

I presume the BBC sends out a signal that is detected by the Sky HD box or perhaps the EPG is updated.

Thanks for your help.
