It's odd but since i started using the MVP somewhat more i noticed that the remote keys for skip & jump FWD/REW sometimes do the opposite or do nothing or work just fine. the funny thing is that i see the timeline indicator on top of the screen changing time but the video does not (in the cases where no skipping at all happens).
is this common or just my issue? the remote has 34 keys & i use the ffmpeg for transcoding (pretty much the standard settings):
I've been on NetFlix for a while, but had to reinstall my OS the other week so I'm now on Silverlight.
I just installed your plug-in yesterday, with Silverlight as the external viewer. I put in my regular DVD queue for the RSS feed.
But I can't get it to work. The queue is unavailable, and when I just go to the top movies, and pick one (say Spotless Mind), it hangs on the retrieving information window until the GBPVR screensaver kicks in.
I've tried it both full screen and windowed mode to see if there's an IE log-in screen.
IE doesn't even start up (as I expected it to with Silverlight).
I can watch NetFlix fine in IE through the NetFlix website, BTW.
I have a problem with the new version . It cant find any channels . The old version was uninstalled and the folder was erased . I made a small video clip to show the problem.
I have had 2 MVPs for some time now. This last Christmas I got a PCH A110. Initially I had lots of problems with it so I sent it in and they replaced the motherboard. Now I have it back (finally) and it is much more stable. I have it set up for GBPVR and it works well. My issue is that when the unit sits with the power off and I come turn it on, I can't navigate the menus. Every button I push I get the eternal "working" circle in the top left. The only thing I can seem to access is the setup screen. My work around for this is to press the stop button then the setup button. Once on the setup screen if I go to network options and click save for both the upper and lower settings then everything starts working as normal.
I am hoping that someone knows what I am talking about and has a fix for this. I am using a static IP for my PCH. I have a home network that consists of one PC with XP, 2 MVPs, 1 PCH and my DSL router. My MVPs work wonderfully. No problems at all.
Would it be possible to add an option to set the recording quality? It doesn't look like the recording quality in GB-PVR controls the HD-PVR's quality settings. I realize I can open up Arcsoft and change it there and it will stay until a reboot, but that is a pain and I always seem to forget.
I've successfully set up my dvb card, the preview works fine and the EPG channel finder thingey worked perfectly. However when I try to actually use Live TV it drops back to the schedule.
I am finally building my first pc-based client. The setup is straight forward. However, if I use Streaming, liveTV works perfect even for ATSC channels, however, recordings stutter. If I use Fileshare, recordings work perfect including HD ones, but liveTV stutter. I tried changing the client pre-delay to 4000 and 6000 with no difference. I am using a fast GB Ethernet with no speed issues.
It seems that it is either livetv or recordings will work well but not both. I am grateful for any insights you might have. I am using mpg files with cyberlink mux on the server.
I bought this a few years ago for my server build and it has been working great for us since then. With my client machine I'm looking for one of these again but they don't seem to be as common anymore, I think they have actually been discontinued.
Searching on ebay I find alot of the "Dell" ones that don't appear to have the tv power button as the other Microsoft one does. Is there a replacement for this remote out there?
I've read a few reviews saying it doesn't have enough power to do HTPC. However, in the new ION config., does the GeForce 9400 chipset offload enough of the processing to make the atom a viable platform?
I want to playback 1080p as well as handling 1080i OTA source.
Are there any functionalities I'd miss?
