I just upgraded to GB-PVR 1.3.11. This is a drastic upgrade, because I was previously using 0.99.5.
I installed the .net 20, the runtime files, and installed GB-POVR successfully. I went through the initial setup, where some of my previous settings were retained, and some weren't. I went through every menu, and set things up.
Looks like instead of the old gbpvr.exe we now have pvrx2.exe. Every time I try to run it, nothing happens. I get no splash screen, just some drive activity, and the machine locks up. If I bring up task manager, I can see the application in there, but it doesn't seem to do anything other than lock up the machine so all I can do is end the process to get my machine back.
Are there some minimum requirements for running this new application? I tried to find some by searching around the forum and the wiki, but couldn't find it.
I am using:
Dell GX280, P4 1.5GHz, 512MB RAM
NVIDA GEForce FX 5200
Hauppauge WinTV PVR PCI II
Windows XP Pro SP2
..but it does if I come out of automode and select a specific section.
Would it be possible to add the ability to do this? It would definately speed up the alignment of my comskip cut-points.
I stopped using skiptool for a while as I was busy building a new pc plus I had managed to break stattik's script. Now that everything is working again and I have a dual core cpu AND I have comskip working reasonably well, skiptool and stattik's script are doing a really excellent job of producing ad-free, high quality xvid files for archiving.

What is the reason for this error? This is a recent complete clean install of 1.3.11 with an import of existing recordings from a previous version (1.3.7). I did not import the season recordings because i have noticed problems/corruption in the database with this.
I also have sometimes the problem that deleting a recording takes a rather long time (up to 10 seconds). Are the problems related?
I'm looking for a cheap solution to copy all of my old home videos/VHS tapes to disk. Since the card will only be used for this purpose and probably not again then I am looking for something that is cheap, and because I'm cheap too. Any suggestions?
I installed Kworld 330U USB ATSC tuner and the Arcsoft TotalMedia software it came with. I tested with TotalMedia first and it worked well. Then I tried to playback the same video with GBPVR and the audio is out of sync. I used every audio filter I have including AC3filter and ffdshow but I still couldn't get the audio to sync up. I decided to try and add the tuner to GBPVR anyway to see what happens. I can get sync'd AC3 audio on some channels and others I can't. I am still using 1.2.9 in order to continue using Raven's MyVideos5. What should my settings in Config be? Which decoders should I be using? Or do I just need a faster PC?
I am not able to run GB-PVR beqause probably I am missing a Microsoft directshow component. From the loggs I have created it is not possible to tell wich one. For more info regarding my problem see this thread: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=40526
My wish is better logging so I can tell whats missing in my setup.
I'm trying to use Skiptool, but for some reason I can't get over to the right side to pick a directory and file - it just won't jump over to the other side with remote or keyboard.
Has anyone had this trouble? I haven't tried the mouse, that will be next, but I shouldn't have to, right?
