I am using Schedules Direct. In my area the History Channel is on 67 (without STB). If you have a STB it is on 71. Schedules Direct has the channel as 71 as well. When I set up my capture device and get the EPG listings I unchecked the channels I didn't want and then edited History channel to '67'.
This has worked fine for a while, but today I noticed that I now have 2 History Channels. I removed the channel in using config (by editing capture device). Also - the History Channel (ch. 67 in GBPVR) now has no data in the TV Guide.
For last few days I am noticing that my XP machine is not able get any rest. As soon as I hit the sleep/suspend button or let power saving mechanism kick in, machine wakes up again in few seconds.
I tried disabling active programs one by one and everything is normal when I disable the gbpvr service. Are there any known issues with GB PVR that might be disabling the sleep functionality?
I am also suspecting (no proof yet) a memory leak in GB PVR processes somewhere. Though task manager shows nothing abnormal for the process, my PF file usage becomes very high and machine becomes almost unusable - it stops responding to mouse/keyboard strokes. Only button that works is power button on the pc - hard reboot. Again after disabling GB pvr service, everything is ok.
GB Pvr package and XP patches are up to date. I don't have anything extra for GBPVR apart from download from standard directory. Machine is clean with freshly formatted drive and OS reinstall.
Any pointers to solve this problem will greatly appreciated.
I have two different TV providers and was wondering if it is possible to configure GBPVR to read Satellite provider from S-video and Digi Cable from cable 3 (Analogue). I don't need to do it simultaneously, just need to have access to both inputs. (Some local channels are not on the Sat service, so I would like to record the cable 3 analogue for those).
If this will work can I map the guide to switch accordingly as well? For example, I am recording program 1 on satellite (S-video) and then I have a timer to record from (cable 3 input). Can this be done automatically?
So I've been using 1.3.11 for a month or so now and I'm having some weird issues.
From time to time it will fail to mark shows for recording.
In my recurring recordings I have GBPVR set to record all episodes of Scrubs on Comedy Central (channel 40 here). It's on every day from 7-7:30 and from 7:30-8:00 and is on at certain times on the weekends as well. For the last 2 weeks it simply stopped marking those shows for recording. Other recordings work fine. The episodes it's skipping are not already recorded and are not pending on any other channel. It just won't mark them to record, almost as if the episodes I deleted never actually got marked as deleted. It did work for a while, then stopped recently. I know it's not the EPG because I can see the episodes in the TV Guide listings on GBPVR that shows GBPVR does know the episode is listed.
[LIST=2]If I accidentally cancel a recording and re-schedule it it will not show up in the pending list.
Last night I was looking through my scheduled recordings (investigating issue #1) and I accidentally hit "CANCEL" instead of "CLOSE" when looking at one of the pending recordings. It canceled that episode, of course. I then went back and manually marked that show to be recorded. It never showed up in the pending list. I don't know if it's scheduled now or not.
[/LIST]
[LIST=3]Last night it recorded something but didn't the episode it recorded never showed up in the ready list!
It started recording a show at 1:30am. The show completed at 2am, and shortly thereafter I went into the list of ready shows, selected the show, went down to the episode it just recorded and that episode wasn't there! It wasn't listed. It was as if it hadn't even recorded.[/LIST]
[LIST=4]Occasional crash when exiting PVRx2.
When I exit PVRx2 sometimes I get a windows popup that PVRx2 crashed. When I looked in the pvrx2 logs I see a SQLite fault. This doesn't really concern me, but I thought I'd mention it.
[/LIST]
I am using mc2xml for the listings.
I'm attaching my most recent logs which do include at least one EPG update. Has anyone else seen these issues? I didn't have these problems with older (.96.X) versions, but since upgrading these are the issues I've run into and I'm hoping someone has some ideas. I looked through the 1.3.11 thread but I haven't seen any patches that reference anything like this.
When set to Waiatarua, I get zero signal strength and quality Scanning 1 of 3 and -20 and 100 for the scans 2 and 3. Does that mean a problem with my signal or my HVR2200?
Is there any way to record a digital show from OTA and gbpvr make the file with season episode information such as: //Recorded Tv/Family Guy/Season 4/Family Guy - S04E24.ts
Since I'd been having problems, I figured I should step up to the latest software & FW for my HDHR. I figured if I needed support from Silicon Dust, they'd want me to do that anyway.
So I followed the instructions here. I did a channel scan in the config app (as the instructions stated), and it found a bunch of channels, but I'm unable to even preview them to map them. Every channel I click on in the channel mapper window just gives black.
My next thought was maybe I don't actually have to change the channel mapping, but now every recording on every channel (from the HDHR) is 0 size.
I can preview everything fine in the HDHR Setup application...
I'm not sure where to go for support here or Silicon dust. If I go to SD, what should I collect for them.
Most DVDs that I try have not problems, I have some home-made DVDs that I burned a few years ago that will not play in GBPVR. When I go to the DVD module, it just goes to a blank screen until I hit the stop button. If I use MPC-HC, I get the same thing, except in MPC-HC, I am able to use the navigation menu to jump to Title 01.
The only thing different about these DVDs is that I had used IFO Edit to change the First Play PGC to force the audio and subtitle tracks to what I wanted as default. It appears that for whatever reason, the standard DVD Navigator does not process this PGC correct and does not automatically play Title 01.
The discs work fine in both my standalone DVD players. They also play fine in my WinDVD 4 software.
So, I'm wondering, what other DVD Navigators work well with GBPVR? I have Nero installed and used graph edit to build a graph using the Nero DVD Navigator. The graph worked and the DVD played Title 01, but when I tried to use it in GBPVR it crashed. I also tried using the Intervideo Navigator (from WinDVD4) which also crashed on some discs.
Anyone have experience using any of these or other DVD Navigator successfully with GBPVR?
Or, is there a way I can jump to a specific title on the disc within GBPVR?
I am very new to GBPVR so please bear with me. I have decided to make an HTPC out of an old computer so I have done a clean install of Windows XP Pro SP2 and GBPVR. It seems to be running great, but I can't seem to find the "transcode" button that should be in the Video Library tab. I did have see it when I first intalled GBPVR, but I had all kinds of conflicts so I completely reformatted the HD and reinstalled everything and now no Transcode. I can set the auto transcode up no problem.
