I really like the Weather Plug-in. I certainly can use it the way that it is right now. But here are a few ideas that I think would improve the weather plug-in.
If you're like me, you live in an area where the weather services usually only provide a simple radar image of your state (or half of your state) that shows about a 200 mile range. That can be a two hour period in many instances. To get a complete idea of what may be coming within the next 24 hours or so, you need to add several more radar sites.

I live in Minnesota and I currently have the weather plugin set up with radar stations to cover: north and south of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and eastern Colorado (weather in Minnesota rarely comes from the east). Along with the radar data, the plugin also downloads the complete forecast information for each of these locations. I would like the weather plugin to limit its data from other locations to just radar images. I would also like to see this radar data on a composite image that comprises all the land within my selected radar image (instead of having to key from radar site to radar site to get the information from all the sites).

Similarly, I would like to see temperature and current condition (rain, cloudy, sun) for some selectable cities within a selectable map area. (for me, that would be the entire state of Minnesota, and then show cities such as Minneapolis, St Paul, Rochester, Albert Lea, Duluth, Fargo, Grand Forks, International Falls, and my home city).

I certainly can use the plug-in the way it is, but in this day of having live weather images that you can zoom in and pan around on, I don't know why the GBPVR plug-in would want to settle for something less.

Having just moved from Windows MCE, one thing that I used constantly was the 'original air date' in the EPG. This quickly told me if the program was new or a repeat (as they often are in the UK!). Although the MC2XML EPG grabber works fine, this information appears to be missing so I have no idea if something is new or not. Anybody know a workaround or another EPG source that provides this?

This was working before I added the STB to the HaupRCA.

I have my 2 cards setup as follows:
Aver150 Coax: Analog linup - Working
Aver150 RCA: VCR - no linup channel 91 - Not appearing
Haup150 Coax: Analog linup - Working
Haup150 RCA: STB - Digital Linup - Working

The Aver150 RCA is setup like this:
Rec. Source: Analog Recoring Plugin
Source: Composite, External Tuner
EPG Source: None
Channel Changer: none
Channels:
Name: VCR
Enabled: True/Checked
Source Channel: 91

Those settings were working before my whole mixup w/ adding the Digital linup for the STB.

I try UpdateEPG for the AverRCA, but it doesn't help.

Any thoughts? Where should I look?

Logs attached from right after clicking UpdateEPG in case they're needed.

Hi,

i have a HVR-3000 and i would like to use it in GB PVR for analog TV. First i've checked the site of GB PVR and found that analog was not supported. But i've read on a Tweakers post it is experimental supported. I have to install the SoftMCE from Hauppauge. I've done that, but was not able to make it work. Does somebody has some hints?

Regards,

From the log, it appears that the web admin thinks there are no tuners available.

However, I checked and there are no recordings scheduled at the time (last attempts were ~12:07 at times I knew I wasn't recording anything else).

I'm at work, so the only log available at this time is the one I got from the Web Admin.

If others are needed, I can collect them tonight.

BTW: I called my wife & she is able to schedule via PVRX2...

I am setting up a GBPVR system. Currently we have DirecTV and a digital antenna converter box. I would like to be able to watch live TV and record at the same time from either input source.

Any recomendations on a Capture Card?

Hello,

Thanks to the helpful information on this forum I have managed to get the EPG set up (I get the list of channels and got the capture source to recognise the device type.

I am then trying to map digital channels to EPG channels.

The scan reports - "no channels found"

I am getting a good signal on the compro DTV program.

Has anyone got suggestions how I can get gbpvr to find the channels?

I have a Dazzle DVC-80 I want to use as a capture device for my DirecTV. Is there a way to do this? I have attached a filtercheck.log

I've noticed some users struggling to get plugins working because they are set to use the "Slick" skin and many plugins only supply a "Blue" skin.

• Is the default PVRX2 skin on a new install the "Slick" skin?
  
• Isn't the "Blue" skin the only required skin for plugins?
  
• Did I miss the policy change? (I don't follow the forums that much except to help XSuite users)
  

I hope some day you can separate the HD and SD channels in the Guide so we can actually pick what show we want in HD or SD. Kind of how Snapstream Beyond TV does it. For instance. Have ABC, CBS, NBC in SD in the guide, and then have a different HD guide data for the same channels all mashed together into one guide. So two different lineups all into one guide. That would be awesome. Look at Beyond TV. Thats how they do it and it works awesome.

Love the program. But I can't use it until it does that.
