Here's a test build including some relatively minor changes to improve the speed that the SkinPlugin can generate the previews when browsing editable skin item options.
In tests I found it to be about 2x-4x as fast, would be interested in results from the 'real world'. Please post below with your results and general feedback.
Just extract the zipped DLL to:

After a recent hard drive crash I have reloaded GBPVR and am having an issue with one of my channels. When I record anything on my local FOX channel it does not record in HD. Every other channel I have set up records HD but not FOX. I get a letterbox version of the show as if i was watching a HD program on an SD TV.
Before the crash it would record in HD, and I thought I had set everything up the same. I have tried rescanning the channels and it's still the same.
I tried to get this working but when run mvpmcx2 on the pch it works but the client only takes up part of the screen it is like its the equivalent to a folder in window that has been resized on your desktop to only take up some of the space
I have uploaded my logs and config.xml file as i still can not find <MVPClientType>PCH</MVPClientType> setting anywhere in it so i cant change it, but i might be wrong
I updated to the recent hdmi-version and something is wrong. All I get is a black screen and the PCH freeses totally and i have unplug it to get it working again at all.
Ooh.. It's just like Christmas day with a nice new toy to play with!!!!
Huge thanks as always to Martin, Sub and all of the testers for the latest release.
First the good news,
Upgraded mvpmcx2, sub's mods and config.xml. Both PCH-A110 and PCH-B110's work first time. Playback of cyberlink mux recorded programs works perfectly on both Component and HDMI. Speed is fantastic. Live TV has a tiny (and expected) buffer delay but plays flawlessly. I will give it all a good bashing over the next 24 hours and see if I can break anything.
The only bit of bad news so far is that BBC HD recordings (H264 with AC3 audio I think) appear to have a bit of a problem keeping track of the audio stream. When a recording is first started, there is a 10 second delay until the audio kicks in with a stutter. After that, the audio seems to be sync'ed OK, but gets lost again whenever I skip or pause. Also, in mono mode, the audio subtitles could be turned on and off with the 'Audio' button on the remote. This seems to be disabled in PCH2 mode and I seem to get random audio subtitleing.
I dont know if it helps but I've attached dumpts.txt
Let me know if you would like a HD recording snippet putting somewhere.
Once again many thanks for all of your fantastic efforts.
I used EWA across my local network with Windows XP, my host machine is now running Windows 7 and I can no longer log into EWA from other machines. I have tried to open port 7647 in Windows Firewall however the firewall interface is now quite different and need help in configuring it, can anyone help?
Hi,
I'm currently a MythTV user but trying to switch to GBPVR, but can't get my analog cable channels (2-65) to tune in. When I switch channels, it shows up very fuzzy for a split second and then I get snow and lines, except for Channels 14 and 17 which are very fuzzy but recognizable.
All the channels (2-65)show up perfectly when I use the Hauppauge WinTV app.
Config and Steps
----------------
1) Celeron D, Hauppauge PVR150 Card
2) Downloaded drivers: hauppauge_cd_3.4d1
- Ran HcwDriverInstall.exe to install drivers. After this install, GBPVR didn't pick up any stations from the Hauppauge Card, so figured it needed more Hauppauge drivers/apps loaded
- Ran setup.exe from the hauppauge_cd_3.4d1 directory and it installed WinTV and other apps. GBPVR then was able to momentarily tune into some stations, so at least it was recognizing the hauppauge card properly.
3) All the EPG and channels got loaded properly and stations using schedulesdirect account
Tried:
1) Changing settings between Cable and Antenna
2) Tried the TuningAssistant and got same results
3) Tried reinstall
4) Tried Re-register Filters
5) Tried FreqCopy
6) Experimented with WinTV and GBPVR running and noticed that if GBPVR tunes to the same WinTV station, it actually kills the WinTV reception, which made me think that something is pulling the signal away from GBPVR but can't seem to find a process that would be doing that.
