I just pick up an AverTVHD Volar Max, it's media center is crap, and only picks up half my channels, so I decided to give GBPVR a try.
Cool software, nicely done! Picks up every channel I'm expecting, unfortunately there is no sound. The AverMedia center does have sound for the channels that it will tune.
System stats:
Windows XP SP3
GB-PVR v1.3.11, fresh install, no extra plugins added.
Comcast Digital Cable, channels scan as QAM AC3
For device type I click 'Only Show devices detected' to true and selected "AverMedia H826 Hybrid Volar Max (QAM)"
I have my videos stored on a Windows Home Server Share \\WHSERVER\Videos
with sub-directories like \\WHSERVER\Videos\Lightroom, in the Directories tab of GBPVR config I have browsed to the network location and selected \\WHSERVER\Videos and given it an alias of WHSVIDEOS.
I can select and play the videos in all the directories when I use the PCH Media Sources, Network Browser. When I start mvpmcx2 from the Web Services and select the Video Library in GBPVR I can see the alias WHSVIDEOS but when I select it nothing happens ie it does not drill down to the sub-directory.
The GBPVR Client on the server works fine and finds all the directories.
As a test I put the same video on the GBPVR server local disk and this works using mvpmxc2 on the PCH.
Where I am lost is if it is a networking problem why does the PCH have no problems using the Network Browser to find the directories and play the videos?
I have the Guest account on both the GBPVR server and the WHS Server.
Any ideas would be most welcome.

It seems teletext subtitles are recorded within the ts file, but they don't show during playback on the pc client. If I view the ts file in VLC the subtitles does show.
I had been using GBPVR a few years ago and started it again and in that time my zap2it account has been deleted so. I started another one and now the new account will not update in my configuration. Any advice?
It is an first time installation of GB-PVR but I get athe following error message.
"Installation ended prematurely because of an error"
.net 2.0 is installed on my PC and I also run the vcredist_X86.
I tried the SC delete service in the cmd as was posted here earlier but there is no such service present since it is a first time installation I guess.
Does someone know what might cause this error?
:confused:
I have a vista home premium sp 1, 3.0 GB RAM, 32 bits, ADM athlon 64X2 processor. M779 PCIe DVB-T tuner card.
I've just become a Dad for the first time, so naturally being the nerd that I am I went and bought a wifi web cam to keep an eye on the nipper......the main aim was to be able to flick on the TV in the bedroom (gbpvr from mvpmc) to see if the little munch-kin had spewed milk everywhere before stepping out of bed in the middle of the night.
So I have various mpeg4 and jpeg streams available from the camera all on a local IP, I can use the webcam plugin with some success, it works on the PC in the lounge, but when I move to the MVP it doesnt refresh. I had a look at ubustream but it seems that lack of maintainence has made it a bugger to get running on the PC.....and moving to the MVP just adds to the pain.
So I'm after some ideas.....I'm using MVPMC on the MVP I wondered if there were any way I could set up VLC to stream to the MVP.
This covers quite a few forum titles, but I'll post here for now and gauge the response.
As said in your announcement thread I am getting a black screen on my NMTs using your two latest versions of mvpmcx2. Attaching logs as requested. Let me know if any telnet testing is needed.
