I was testing some things on the NMT and I was wondering if someone who has an MVP plugged in if they could confirm some things in audio playback

- does pause work
- is there some visual display that the music is paused (maybe in plugins too)
- can you select just one song to play in a folder

Thanks

I finally managed to get GBPVR to automatically convert from TS to MPG2, so I have been going back through my old TS recordings and xcoding them outside GBPVR with the aim to have everything on the drive as MPG2 from now on.

I cant get the <checkforrenamedrecordings) to work the way I think it should, I have it and <autoremovemissingrecordings> set to true, but when I delete the TS file from the directory leaving behind the MPG it dissapears from the recordings menu.

When does check remaned run and what triggers it? PVRx2 startup or when you enter recordings plugin? Or Pehaps with the recordingservice?

I assume autoremove runs after check renamed, (otherwise it would never work?)

Ta

but I want a utility to run once the recording is finished how can I get postprocessing.bat to get PVRX2 to stop the playback automatically so it won't interfere with the utility's process and I don't have to keep looking at the clock in order to stop the playback manually?

So, some of you know I lost a drive recently. My recordings drive.

I was able to switch over to my main OS drive temporarily, but I missed some recordings until I did.

Could we get an option to have a failover location (or two) where GBPVR will record if it can't get to our main recordings folder?

I know the database comes into play, but for failsafe measures, I think we'd be able to live with the recording going into the alternate location while the database still has the entry as if it's in the main location.

(For my purposes, I made a new share with the same name as the original/main share, and now am copying the files to the new drive which will have the share name. The database won't know where the files really reside as long as the share path doesn't change.)

In the config app on the MVP & NMT tab, the 'Use incremental screen updates' check box is bound to the <MVPUseIncrementalUpdates> setting in config.xml.

Can I assume that this setting applies to any/all MVP's and NMT's attached to a server but can be overridden for a specific MVP/NMT MAC Address by specifying <MVPSendIncrementalUpdates> in an <MVPSpecificSettings> <MAC-hhhhhhhhhhhh> node?

Hello,
I am a newbie and please bear with me. I have been desperately trying to convert my 5 year old computer to htpc ( ADS Tech Instand HDTV pci, SONY VAIO pcv-rz14g ...2.5 GHz processor, 1.0 Gig RAM, 120 Gig hard drive, Windows XP with service pack 3) and after trying bunch of other software, currently trying to get gbpvr to work for its simplicity and its seemingly being fast to load.

Here is the problem...I have EPG working (OTA) and see TV GUIDE etc., but when I go to configure the source, and try the "Map Digital Channel", it coes back with error. I am stuck....please help me.

Using latest GBPVR...1.3.11

This is the error I get from Microsoft .NET Framework....."Unhandled exception has occured in your application....Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

I am also attaching the log files.

Thank you so much in advance.

Hello,
I have some trouble with series lookup in the new version. It works the first time, but the second time it doesn't look in thetvdb.com, instead it goes to IMDB.
The first was the episode "The Butterfly Effect" from Heroes. My title field was:
Heroes | The Butterfly Effect

The log shows:

The second was the episode "One of Us, One of Them" from Heroes. My title field was:
Heroes | One of Us One of Them

VERBOSE [1] MovieWizConfigForm: tsbLookupDetail_Click()- Lookup detail requesetd.
VERBOSE [1] AWizScraper: filterShowName()- Title: 3037 One of Us One of Them

This time, it didn't take the title, it took the filename instead.

How can this be fixed? I cannot close/open the MovieWiz Manager after each lookup, that take too much time.

Regards,
Gert

Thanks JavaWiz for a great add-on I have been playing with it and config files and have couple of notes.

Recording status is already marked in "program times list" and that's great but it would be quite helpful if you could mark also the items in the "program list". I tried copying eyeCatcher to ProgramListSelected nodes but it was happily ignored I guess you retrieve recording status only for selected show.

It seems @rating contains combined star-rating and categories. Same with @channel that contains combined channel, start and stop dates. Any chance to get all of them split?

Could you use locale settings for date/time display that goes into @channel variable, at the moment it seems to be hardcoded to US locale.

Cheers

I am stumped.

When I go to select live TV it returns immediately to tme menu. I have been searching for a soluction and cannot find out how I can fix this. Does any have suggestions that would fix my problem. I am working with NVidia DualTV. I have gone through and fixed the Direct.ini file to make sure that my filters are named correctly. A copy of the filter check is attached.

I believe the problem has something to do with an error I am getting in my pvrx2 log. I have attached a copy of the logs. The error I am receiving is:

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Thanks

I must be missing something stupid but I can't install the XSuite plugins. I am using the latest version of gb-pvr 1.3.11 and the beta v50 of Xsuite. Clicked on xrecord-setup.exe and enabled the plugins in the plugins tab of config. The plugins show up in the main PVRX2 menu but when I select them nothing happens. I found the dlls in the plugin directory. This all is in XP Media Edition.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
