I'm still struggling with some misbehaving DVB-T recordings (NZ w/ AAC) although they seem to be limited to channel C4.
I used graphedit and built a graph that seems to work (in the graphedit viewer) and re-registered the h.264 filter and Mpeg Splitter, then edited config.xml to set my preferred tools.
The graph that PVRX2 builds, however, is not the same as the manual one I built and contains "extra" bits. And, as a result, PVRX2 can't play the file without severe skipping and freezing.
So, is there a way I can mandate an existing graph for watching a recording, or is there more I can tweak in config to result in a graph like the one that works?
The attached logs from pvrx2 are before I tweaked GBPVR (pvrx2.exe-native-1) and after I tried tweaking config (pvrx2.exe-native).
Also included config.xml, the graph built by pvrx2, and the graph I built that works (30_Rock...grf).
Finally, as a side issue, anyone have any idea why only C4 seems to give me issues?
Actually probably 'alpha' might be a more honest level to start.
Many thanks to those who helped with 'private' DVB-S radio testing, but I ground to a halt if for no other reason than I started losing track of communications via email...hence this thread.
Any previous testers and any new testers interested in persuing this then please PM me.
This release now uses a batch installer and the wiki page is (at least slightly) less verbose.
NOTE: Due to the name change, this version will install alongside (and co-exist with) previous versions. I'll post instructions and/or an uninstaller to remove previous versions ASAP.
Changes...

Project renamed âDVB Radioâ and now installs into a new plugin folder (plugins\DvbRadio).
x64 operating systems now supported.
Now warns if the DVB Radio service is not running.
Changed power event handling to (hopefully) stop the service from preventing hibernate (not fully tested).
I had mine set @ 13Mbps constant (constant bitrate mainly because it made skipping easier with my PCH)
I have my cable box set to 720p (even though my set is 1080p) because I thought it would give me a better bitrate/pixel ratio. Does that matter at all?
Would a given bitrate be less prone to smearing & artifacts @ 720p than at 1080i? I could probably set the bitrate lower since Comcast compresses the crap out of everything anyway...
After I map my Channels to the EPG, using the Map Channel button, I cannot view some of the channels in there. I don't know what information to post for you all to help us out. I am Using a Happauge HVR-1600, I can watch all the channels using WinTV, but some of them I CANNOT view in the GB-PVR Preview Window or PVRx2. It's just certain channels, mostly the main ones for my area. I was wondering why. If you need some more information, let me know what to post for you guys.
I just did a system reinstall, and everything is working fine again except movies I shot w/ my blackberry. They play in Quicktime, and even in WMP (I installed a directshow adapter). In GB, they just don't play (no error, just a pause then nothing). They played just fine before, as well.
Hey all, I did some more scanning after upgrading to 1.3.11 using the base qam.ini file and again it didn't find anything. After upgrading to the latest version of Haup drivers for my HVR1600 I was able to scan by country instead off all countries (that never worked before). After doing that I was able to build a qam.ini file that works perfectly. It's pretty much the same as the base except each entry is shifted by either 1250 or 1150 KHz. Give this a try!
Hi, I just installed gbpvr. Running XP, Service pack 3, 4 gigs ram, AMD dual core AM2 processor with a brand new Hauppauge 1600 card. I have two real annoying problems and a question.
1. In the config program, anytime I hit the OK button to exit an area, it takes FOREVER to close the window I was working in. I've mainly noticed it in the capture setup area, but that's the part of setup I'm using the most. Also, the config program has locked up on me a few times as well.
2. I've setup a QAM capture entry, and mapped some channels to QAM entries, but when I go to the viewer, the mapped entries don't work. When I go back into setup to check them, they are checkmarked and assigned to the proper channels. What am i doing wrong?
3. Is there any way to view the raw QAM channels in the viewer. I'm having trouble identifying some of the channels, and it would help to hear the audio.
Hello, I had an issue with my second hard drive not showing up earlier due to a faulty SATA cable. I have all of my recordings saved to this hard drive and since this happened none of the old recordings show up in GBPVR even though they are on the hard drive and have not been moved. Is there a way to add them back to the recordings in the program? If not is it possible to pull the episode information from the video files so that I can rename them with the episode number and title? Thank you for the help.
I'm new to home theater, and have a few questions.
Here is my setup. I have a Pinnacle PCTV 310i TV Card, Nvidia GeForce 8600GT video card (512MB memory), Core2Duo E6850 CPU, 4GB Memeory and Vista Ultimate 32-bit. I have the Imon remote (and display/remote device mounted inside one of the DVD bays), and I have a Logitech Harmony remote, although I'm not yet too crazy about that.
Now, I want to set up the system so I can change channels on my Technomate (5400) sat receiver. I understand i need an IR Blaster to do that. I also have a cable box and it would be nice to be able to control that from time to time. I'm willing to buy another TV card if I need to in order to get this set up. If I do that, I'd prefer one with two tuners in it and one that is USB as my motherboard only has 3 slots.
Any recommendations on what I should do here? I did a search and wasn't able to find something that made sense to me as the solution, so pointers to other posts is welcomed, as are new, fresh information.
