My EGreat M34a finally arrived & I have been trying to get it working using the dummy guide install on my development machine.
When I, following the guide Test Connection, using the network browser select open GB-PVR via the Network Browser I get the message "CP:Cannot stat'/opt/sybhttpd"
I had a 400 GB drive that GBPVR was set to record to, and store the tv buffer on. I pulled it out, cloned it to a 750GB drive I am upgrading to. When I put the new 750 in...and booted windows..for some reason windows did not assign it the same drive letter as the old drive.
I didn't notice this until after I opened gbpvr. I went to recordings..it sat frozen for a minutwe..and then listed my recordings as "failed". I realized the problem, and fixed the drive letter, but gbpvr now only shows like the last 4 things I recorded, and all show "failed".
Is there any way to fix this...I had probably 30-40 episodes of some shows...probably 100+ recordings total...I really really don't want to lose the link to them. I realize they still exist on the drive, but since gbpvr thinks they don't..I can't play them within gbpvr, and I can play them on my mediamvp in the other room.
It doesn't happen w/ every recording, but enough of my HD-PVR recordings have messed up time issues that it's a nuisance to manually run tsmuxer from the GUI every time.
Does anyone know how your supposed to run it from the command line so I can add it to PostProcessing.bat?
I have determined that my provider periodically sends out the pay per view channels in the clear, but does not appear to do it according to any predictable pattern.
Is there a way that a feature could be implemented where you tell it to record a show on a channel (like a movie on the ppv channel) and if there is a sync on this channel, it proceeds, and if not it automatically tries to record the next available show that doesn't conflict with other scheduled recordings?
i need abit of help I have been using a ati rage 128 pro as a capture source and tvout well it finally died of old age so i had a couple of old nvidia cards one big a tnt2/vanta it gives wonderful tvout on all my tvs(feedinng to a channel vision multi feed modulator) however it maxes out at 720x480 the other is a nvidia 6200 however it does a crappy job no matter what resolution i set it to so what i want to know is what is a good card that can handle at least 1024x768 composite or svideo and does not do major scaling i would prefer dx9 compatibility but not a requirement. heck if someone can recommend a direct vga to rf modulator that will work with nondigital tuners that would work also
I'm an Australian HD Homerun user (running Vista Home) migrating from Mediaportal.
So far GBPVR is looking great, except I'm having trouble with live tv display of the Australian ABCTV suite of channels (ABC1, ABC2, ABC HD) (DVB-T). The channels appear on the scan, but will not play (video or audio) in the channel mapping preview window (config), or in the normal live tv mode. I get a blank window that sometimes causes a hang - sometimes I can switch to another.
I have followed the HD Homerun instructions and installed the survival patches, and done a successful re-register of the filters using the .bat file. Then a re-scan. Still the same problem - all channels scan fine but no display of the ABC ones.
From reading other posts it seems one explanation may be lack of the right codec - but before I begin downloading and trying out a bunch of codecs (I hate playing with codecs!) I wanted to see if others think that's it. All commerical channels and SBS are fine. And if a missing codec is probably the problem, what codec/renderer combos are people using in GBPVR to get Australian DVB-T - particularly ABC?
If a log of the config would help I can post it but I thought someone might be able to guess the problem without it.
