I'm at my wits end. I am running 1.3.11 in an AMD Athlon 2400+ with a hauppauge PV-150 capture card and an ATI Radeon X1300 video card. I am using Vista business SP1. When I run in timeshift mode for about 10 mins everything works fine. But after that if I pause the video never comes back sometimes, other times only the audio comes back. In all cases I have to exit to the main menu and come back to live tv. The problem happens in all codecs I have tried (intervideo, MPV filter, ATI)

I am attaching my logs. Thee is an error at the end saying

m_pD3DDev->Present() failed
Error code : 80070578
ERROR_INVALID_WINDOW_HANDLE
n/a

Any ideas as to what might be causing this?

Thanks

Wonder if these could be better "clients" for GBPVR than maybe even the PCH, i.e. closer in size to an extender like the PCH and also the flexibility of a PC with enough power to run 1080p content.

Issues I see for my own needs with this particular ION PC is lack of SPDIF, component video outputs as were demo'ed in Nvidia's reference box since my receiver and TV do not have HDMI, plus the single core Atom versus the dual core from the reference design.

Firstly id like to apologize for my ignorance.
Current setup:
WHS SP2
GBPVR 1.3.11
VerMedia AVerTV Combo PCIe ATSC/NTSC/QAM
HDHR should be here tomorrow.

So far this is what ive done. Ive connected my cable (no STB, but direct) to my analog source, I go into config and setup my capture source with Analog Recording Plugin, i go to schedules direct website and add my listing, then go back to config and setup my EPG, click update EPG and it picks up channels, but I cant watch all of 'em (scrambled). I cant see history, BET, etc. Is this specific to my area (90065)? Now the 2nd part. I tired setting up a QAM source the same way and when I update EPG I see all these listings, I enable them all then try clicking on the guide, but nothing happens, I click on Live TV and nothing happens. At least with the analog source I can watch some channels, but with QAM I get nothing. Now from what I understand the listings that are getting picked up are just what its referencing on the schedules direct site, correct? Im a total gbpvr newguy. I tried going into my bda.ini and reming out TUNING_SPECIAL=2, but not dice. I feel like im missing a piece of the puzzle. Anyway, thank you in advance. Peace

After installing CS4-SD (release), I still have the same minor cosmetic issue on the 8-channel tv guide as I posted in the beta thread. There's an extra few lines of black border below the 8th channel line. Is this something that can't be fixed for some reason?

(this screenshot is the same as I posted before, but it looks the same now)

Hi all,

just done a complete re-build of XP based GBPVR.

Clean install of v 1.3.11.

Seem to have run into a problem with Live TV on my MVP's.

All I've added since testing the system over the last couple of days is the Utility MVP Server Checker and Community Skin 4.

Am getting no tuners available message on the MVP's but recording service isn't even green in the tray. Just ran GBPVR on the server and chose a channel and it played fine.

Logs attached, anyone can answer?

BTW ALL logs attached, lots of them, didn't know what to filter

Cheers

The title says it all really.

The wiki says that other themes will be available as separate downloads - any time frame for these?

My wife is very tolerant with me when I change things around but I agree with her that we'd both become quite attached to the Green Reflect from CS3.

Cheers,
Brian

Hi all, I've been running 1.3.11 on an XP3, 1.7Ghz AMD machine with a Hauppauge 1600 card and have been pretty happy with it, especially on OTA HD channels. I use the HTPC for Live TV, recording, and DVD playback. But of course like most of us who have home built HTPCs, I'm always tweaking for just a little better picture.

I'm using ffdshow as the decoder for the OTA channels and the ATI MPEG decoder for the output from a Directv box (SD). I keep trying to match the output from gbpvr to the output straight out of the Directv box, but just can't quite get there with the ATI decoder so I thought I'd try ffdshow there as well. The picture was markedly better, but when I changed channels back to OTA, those channels lost audio/video sync and became very choppy. I tried as many of the tips for ffdshow setup that I could find in the forums, but nothing worked so I went back to the original ATI/ffdshow config and everything worked fine again. My question is, could using the same decoder for SD and HD channels cause that kind of problem?

Thanks for the info,
Dave

I'm using the CS4 Widescreen version and have set the theme to the CS Blue Dark MVP.

On the Main Menu, some of the button text is truncated, e.g., "Video Librar", "Picture Libra" and "Search Guid".

The behaviour is the same for both the PC and the MVP - anyone else seeing this?

Cheers,
Brian

Hi, I'm new to this software and when it's working, it's very good but when it misbehaves it drives me to dispair.

I eventually got a configuration that seemed to work and I was using LiveTV last night when the picture and sound started to stall/stammer making viewing impossible.

After a few minutes of channel changing (to see if it would clear the hesitations) the sound stopped, the screen blanked and then I got the No Signal display - check connections etc.

Knowing the connections were fine, I fired up the software bundled with my tuner and it was working fine. I reloaded LiveTV and all EPG programme descriptions were blank (no information). A retune did nothing to correct this problem.

Does this indicate a software (gbpvr?) fault or is it in my configuration?
