with a simple reg change i changed my mce remote to send control-b and F7 for aspect on the # and * keys...with no software loaded!
no HIP, eventghost, IRremote.ini, nohing to startup, nada...
basically there's a scan code translation table that windows uses and is in the irbus.inf that provides all that's needed to send the keys you wish...
that and the translation table of key codes possible..
so far i've just done those keys as proof of concept but i will be making a complete .inf with as many keys mapped as possible...
and post instructions on how to modify it for your own customizations...
[it's pretty easy actually]
to install all that's required is a click on the .reg select 'import into registry'...
this only works with mce remote selected in gbpvr config app, and if pvrx2 has focus...
to this end, [SIZE="3"]i just figured out a way to start pvrx2 and/or re-acquire focus![/SIZE] [SWEET!] make a shortcut to pvrx2 on desktop, and set a hotkey for it [i use ctrl-alt-p] and use that as power button send code...
[also starts pvrx2 if it's not on already..]
Some folders in Video Library, and perhaps some recordings too, may have content that are not suitable for children. There should be a function for specifying a pincode that must be entered before the folder is allowed to be opened/watched. This code can be specified in the Folder tab in config app, ie. if no code is given gbpvr will not ask for a pincode when attempting to open a folder.
When starting PVR2 and looking at Live TV i get the "No signal detected..." and empty bars on signal strength and quality.
Recordings work fine, and I can preview the channels in the capture sources menu. I can also switch channel in LiveTV and the EPG info is correct.
I have version 1.3.11 and a pinnacle PCTV DVB-T dual PCI card and run XPProSP3.
It has occasionally worked before but lately not at all.
I have installed a Blue ray player and have PowerDVD ver 7.3 installed as well as K-Lite codec pack 3.85 and VLC media player.
I have one of these devices installed in my machine. It's a dual tuner hybrid. I currently have both DVB tuners setup. I also have one of the analogue tuners connected to the s-video connection. There's only one physical s-video port, so I have the second analogue tuner configured, but with no channels setup.
What I'd like to know is, how can I configure my card, or GBPVR, so that it knows that one of the dvb-t tuners and the analogue tuner are the same physical hardware? It does technically work at the moment, but as it's configured, it doesn't detect recording conflicts where one of the programmes is to be picked up from the analogue side of things.
I cannot seem to get HIP to work on Windows 7 64-bit. Whenever I try to open HIP, I keep getting a generic error message that HIP has stopped working. I also get a popup stating...
Runtime error 216 at 00404866
I have tried running HIP in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode but that didn't work.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I have Directv and I'm using AC3 for both audio decoders in the playback tab and it works great for every channel except TNT. While watching TNT, all kinds of background pops (that sound distorted) almost make the channel unwatchable. I've tried lowering gain levels in AC3, changed from PCM 32bit to PCM 16bit, and tried various other combinations to no avail. It's funny how it only happens on this channel even though it seems to be in an MPEG-1 Layer 2 format (according to gspot analysis). Any ideas? Thanks for any info.
I've come begging for help. I've had my refurbished PCH for two weeks now, and I've been unsuccessful at getting GBPVR to work on it.
I've followed the Dummies Guide, entered my MAC address without colons or spaces. I didn't check "mode" because it it is labeled "obsolete". I confirmed that the share name on the screen matches what's in GB-PVR.html. I've confirmed that my Firewall has exceptions for GBRecordingService.exe and PVRX2.exe.
NMTInstall.exe appears to be so easy to use. I've gotta be missing something very obvious.
I should mention that the PCH replaces an MVP that has been working for more than 2 years. I'm grateful for any suggestions.
I have installed a KWORLD USB435-q tuner stick. I finally got it working thanks to all the help in the forum. THANK YOU.
Now it is working fine but it is recording the TV in Microsoft TV show format which plays OK on computer but not through MVP to my TV.
I read about the BDA Mux's and am contemplating that solution. Although I haven't found a "real clear" solution to where to get one and how to exactly install it. Also using the Mux, will that let me watch TV shows as it is recording or will it convert as a finished file.
Secondly and easier solution: is there a way to get the Kworld stick to record the show in MPEG 2 instead of MTVS format. They seem to have a way to change output of Video format in ARCsoft total media SW but that does not seem to work for the TV signal only alternate Video (eg Camera) signals.
