Hi,
I'm using the following settings (below) to point moviewiz to a directory containing art for some of my films. All the filenames in that directory are exactly the same as the names of the corresponding video file (except extension). On the 'Manage Content' tab, Image lookup is set to 'config order'.
However, when entries are automatically loaded from batch file, moviewiz is using images from yahoo. I would like it to always use the local file if available, and not even look for it online if it is found locally. Is there another setting I need to configure here?
Anyone else having bogus channels popping up in the lineup? Every few months I have to go into config and uncheck boxes for bogus channels that popped up out of nowhere.
What I think is happening is MC2XML occasionally downloads a incorrectly formatted or otherwise flawed .xml file containing bogus channels. GBPVR then dutifully assigns the channels to a tuner - even though the channel does not exist.
Does this sound like a plausible explanation? Anyone else experiencing something similar? Is there a more stable tv guide fetcher I could be using?
I have doubtfull fortune of living at the fringe of 3 separate DVB-T tranmitters which deliver the same content. (Dutch Digitenne). So I get them all equally good, or equally mediocre as the case is, and sometimes equally bad, depending on the weather.
After testing with GBPVR for quite a while, and reading a large chunk of the forum, wiki and FAQ, I come to the conclusion that GBPVR does not deal well with artefacts. Of which I have plenty in the signal.
I have done the quartz.dll thing, in fact, checked all the items in TweakPlayback and more.
The following is what I observe:
- Sometimes (often) the playback is extremely choppy, even though CPU is not too high.
- Even if I record, and then play back the recording, it is still choppy.
- When I rename the recorded .ts to .mpg, and play it with WMP, it does play without choppyness. I see a lot of artefacts, but a continuous video.
- At the sections where in WMP the artifact increase, in GBPVR the choppyness increases
- Also Hauppage native app plays the same channel with artefacts, but no choppyness.
So far, I have replaced the quartz.dll, used the various playback codecs and renderers. I also tried the various stream (de)multiplexers but believe the WMP playback proves that is not the problem. I also deselected and deinstalled multidec. I could buy and place a directional high gain Yagi antenna on my roof, but I want to avoid that if possible.
I welcome any other idea's, but suspect GBPVR may benifid from debugging the playback mechanism when dealing with artefacts
I have XP on a 2.6Ghz P4 with ATI Radeon 9100 and a Hauppage Nova Dual DVB-T. All latest drivers, except where they have known issues (quarz.dll & usbehci.sys, and yes, I am certain I successfully replaced those)
I'm a newbie, having just installed a Hauppage HVR-2200, and got it working ok. The only problem so far is that when I select a program to record, I'm only offered the option "record once". No option to record season or whatever. Is this something I have to configure, or an extra plugin?
I've been playing around with colorspace (sic) 601 and 709 because apparently 709 output will look better in HD on some monitors. An better explanation with some examples are here http://www.sigmadesigns.com/Support/chromaticity.html When I look at the examples I really can't decide which is better or worse. I am curious to hear what GB-PVR users feel about setting the colorspace.
As I mentioned some people on the NMT forums think this is is a major problem and so I have updated mvpmcx2 to support BT 709 as the default on the NMT. I figured it wasn't working because I trully don't notice any different but I have confirmed it works through the use of another NMT users's utility.
Hi! I found this website today and wanted to try this software. The capture card in my system is listed in the title. So far I've installed the software but could not find a hardware profile that would work. Others have posted on the website that they have been able to get the card working, but alas they are smarter than me! I could not! Additionally I did try the technique listed for "unsupported cards" but ran into a dead end on that as well.
Does anyone have some advice that I could try to get my card working with GBPVR?
Does anyone know why my picture library plugin shows the folder picture like the attached image?
I have a Dev box with same Skin and it shows correctly. Also If I go the pictures folder using explorer I see the folders thumbnail.
