I have been trying to track down a problem that prevents standby on my gbpvr server. It looks as if it is related to a Twinhan card running with V1.2.2.7 drivers. When I disable the card, standby functions as it should.

Has anyone else come accross this problem or similar and found any solution (or a driver that behaves correctly)?

This seems to have just started happening, or at least this bad.
I was running the last version and kept coming in to find the pvr was turned off.
Running xp sp3.
I though I might have buggered something up, so I re-imaged my machine back to when it was first working. Then I upgraded to the new version 1.3.11.
Everything seemed to be fine. But the settings were different, and my library drive was not part of the configuration.

Now I noticed in the previous version, and in this one, that if I have GBPVR loaded, and I try to do things to the files, the machine dumps and reboots, or shuts down. Same thing here, if I move a file, or start the defragger, I get a reboot.

I have 2 hard drives in this machine. The second one is a 500 gb drive I use as my video library. I transfer files over to it if I want to keep it from the main recording drive.
When I added this drive back to the library drives, periodically something must be accessed, because it shuts the machine down after about 40 mins.
If I play something from the library, it dies in about 5 min or so.

I cannot get any logs because it powers down first.

I am in the process of testing all the pieces of the machine incase it is a hardware issue, but so far everything has tested fine by the manufactuer's diagnostic tools.

Just wondering if this was a known issue I missed, or if someone else has seen it.

Program works great. Saves to file (mpeg) on hard disk. Using Windows Media player for the Playstation to read files. Select file and try playing recorded program, and it plays for about 5 seconds, and then stops. Start it again, and it plays for about 5 seconds and then stops.
Does anyone know what file setting / format I should be using for Playstaion 3.
I thought the mpeg format would work fine, but does not, or is there other setup issues I have missed.

Thank you,

Hi,

Any South Africans been able to get any ir blaster solution inplace to interface with the new Multichoice DSD 1110 decorder.

I have been trying the Hauppauge IR Blaster supplied with my WinTV PVR150 without any success. I have tried the default program as well as WinLIRC and few others.

Do I require any additional hardware?


Thanks,
Werner

Hi.

I've been waiting patiently for the VISTA x64 version to be released, so I can try DVB-T radio. I installed v1.6 last night; installed the LAME 3.98.2 DirectShow Filter; set <AudioDecoderName>MONOGRAM AAC Decoder</AudioDecoderName>.

When I start the plugin it asks to scan for channels, thinks about things, but doesn't appear to find any. I have a Hauppauge Nova-T 500 dual DVB-T card. I have attached a clean set of logs and my XML file. Only thing "unusual" in my setup is I am using the TS Mux option in GB-PVR. I'm in Christchurch, New Zealand, and using VISTA Home Premium x64.

Cheers, Simon.

I went in to settings to se if if could change the skin from slick and GBPVR locked up. Got out with task manger. Then just error (ms) Did reboot, and recording service pops up with 8 tuners listed (like when yor install GBPVR on a machine without any tuners) Checked hardwrae manager, all cards working, 2 of them.

Tried "repair" option, but that just bounced back just at the end.
Backed up GBPVR folder.
Reboot, uninstalled GBPVR
Reboot installed GBPVR - this went ok unil config, mserror again.

Pretty much stuck now. Not sure on what to do as uninstalling and reintall has worked in the past. Also havn't seen the recording service behaving like this before.

After making changes using the Config program, PVRX2 will crash when run. I then have to terminate the process in Task Manager. I can only get it to run properly by re-installing GB-PVR.

Also, I have not been able to get Live TV running using InterVideo nonCSS Video Decoder for Hauppauge (Hauppauge WinTV HVR-950Q). I have used this decoder successfully with SageTV (trial version), Beyond TV (trial version) and WatchHDTV 1.961

I have been playing with my htc touch phone and I am able to view the guide etc with opera and see my video library but cannot stream to my phone.

I have tried coreplayer and media player and nothing happens...

I can try the play option but the video is much to high quality for my phone so I am trying to get it to stream to my phone at the lower resolution.

I am on wifi.

Is there a way to make my computer re compress the file through the ewa and enable me to download the file or is it just streaming the only option?

Do I need a specific media player version number on my computer to enable the proper media streaming to the phone?

anyone tried this out?

thanks!

With all the new exiting developments hopefully on the way, I decided to have another go at getting component working.

Sorry, but I'm failing dismally.

HDMI works a treat and this is what I've done:-

On PCH set the video to component 1080p 60Hz (was at HDMI 1080p 60Hz).
changed the startup script from -o hdmi to -o component.

When the PCH restarts, its own menu pops up (softer to view than HDMI) and when I navigate and start the script, the screen just goes blank, needing a reboot of the PCH.

enclosed zip file with startup script (run from HDD) and output from manually running the script.

Any advice most welcome.

My ISP (TPG - Australia) provides IPTV as a multicast stream in the format of h264 video and mpg audio.

I am using the External/ Graph recorder plugin as a capture source and seem to have it (the plugin) setup and working properly using VLC to enable recording of the IPTV channels. Because it is h264 video, I have set VLC to record to ts file. I can replay this recorded file in a directshow player (windows media player) so I have filters ok (splitter, decoders, etc).

In PVRX2 (timeshift mode) selecting Live TV - I get no picture (black screen) and about 10 seconds of constant audio then the audio starts to break up. Looking at the lastgraph.grf, the file gets fed to GBPVRParser and it only outputs one audio pin, nothing else (no video/ h264).

If I select a recording from Video Library it plays fine.

The only thing I can think of is GBPVRParser does not like the stream produced. It is 544 x 576 frame size, would this make a difference? Is it the way VLC writes ts streams?

I cannot transcode the stream to mpeg2 video as my pc is not powerful enough.

Using the latest version of GBPVR 1.3.11 with the latest patch for that filter. Using VLC 0.9.9 for external plugin.

Much appreciated for any answers.
