Well I work for one of the BIG companies going cap in hand to the Governement, exhange rates have screwed me over wrt my inherited house in France....the world will return to the Barter economy (a bit like mad max)
So what you got to offer (keep it clean please)?
I'll raise you :
engine building, tuning, blue printing
Vehicle servicing and diagnostics
a bit of plumbing
a dangerous knowledge of wiring (though not nearly as dangerous as the French)
Programmable Engine ECUs, closed loop Lambda control, Jenvey throttle bodies etc....
A bit of electronics
Early Golf GTI like the back of my handism
Type 2 VW camper tech
...rust
Dish pointing
Engine oil/fuel tech (job)
MatLab/Simulink (job)

I dont think anoying Sub counts..
So who wants to come round my house and build my extension in exchange for a litre of oil??
OK, I've been a long-time Meedio user but wanted to try GB-PVR out. First off I downloaded the plugin from the wiki and get this when I try to load:

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
Any ideas how to remedy that?
Also does this plugin handle multifile movies at all (i.e. Movie CD1.avi, Movie CD2.avi, etc)?
I find it rather frustrating that the application overrides Windows screensavers but have been rebuffed on that one so will drop it.
But, what I now find rather annoying with the latest version is, when the application is run, it overrides the on screen keyboard.
Now I do not have a keyboard connected to this machine as I simply do not want one in my living room so, if I need to change the aspect ratio for a movie, I exit, run on screen keyboard then change the ratio using F7.
Divx videos in the video library play just fine on the client. Also, if i copy the recording to the client and then try to play it it plays just fine. Im guessing there is some problem with the way i have the network setup but i cannot figure it out. Im using file sharing and i can see all the recordings on the client machine but when i goto watch them the screen goes black and then eventually it brings me back to the recordings screen. Ill attach all the logs from both machines. Thanks!
I reinstalled my test box since things were going slow and programs begin to crash......started fresh. After adding to the bda file all the hdhomerun info and using the QAM tool/center freq. to scan, I got a number of channels but upon reviewing them to map, I see or hear nothing on all of them (probably close to 150 or more). On this same system with same drivers etc. last time I had no trouble but I think I must have missed something when I reinstalled things......can anyone tell me what that might be?
I've just installed GBPVR on an XP machine to control a new HD PVR. I was able to create recordings in TME and control the IR through BlastCfg.
Now that I've got GBPVR installed, whenever I try to record something, it creates a 0 kb .ts file that never grows. I am going to the TV Guide and selecting a program to QuickRec, and the first time through it will change the channel (using haupblast), but create a 0 kb .ts. When I cancel the recording and try to record another program in the same way, it won't change the channel (and BlastCfg will now say there is no IR hardware). Then it creates another 0 kb .ts file. Sometimes is will create a 128kb .ts file, I think maybe the first time after a reboot, but I'm not sure.
Anyways, I hope someone can point me to some answers or suggestions. I tried to search the forum, but it says most of my search terms are too short or too common, so I haven't found anything relevant yet.
I tried uninstalling the Arcsoft software thinking it might conflict, though I don't know if that was a good idea or not. I seem to have the same behaviour though, so no change.

I can't find a lot of comparisons on GBPVR vs MCE surprisingly so I thougth I would list a few of the things that bug me about MCE and tell me if it would be better under GBPVR.
1. I run MCE full screen on my TV (2nd monitor) and it locks the mouse so can't use the computer for anything else if someone is using MCE.
2. No easy way to close MCE with the remote. Have to Alt-F4. This is only a pain because I have my computer digitally outputted to my stereo and I don't turn it off so don't want to hear my computer in the middle of the night.
I guess after thinking these are the only two things that but me at the moment.
I would love any links to anybody who has done a good comparison of the two programs.
For cost reasons I'm working if phases to get my ultimate theater set up in my house.
My first stage was a surround sound.
Check.
Second stage was setting up a PVR solution for our living room.
Check.
Third stage was getting a client set up for our bedroom.
Almost Check. Just need to finish dropping a network cable and all will be
done. (thanks to a coworker who had a box of "junk" to get rid of)
My next stage is to upgrade our current tv sets to one's that can display the new digital content we are recording. We have a 26" in the living room hooked up via S-Video and a 20" old tv/vcr combo set in our bedroom with composite video.
So long story short, I've saved enough to possibly upgrade the set in our bedroom but my quandry is this. Since the client is a PC I was considering purchasing a monitor instead of an actual TV. Here is what I've found.
ASUS VH226H Black 21.5"HDMI Widescreen 16:9 Full HD 1080P LCD Monitor
$189.99 shipped.
Vizio 19" Class LCD HDTV, VA19L 720p $197 + tax
My thoughts are, the monitor is bigger and has higher resolution and is cheaper but is only good with a PC.
The TV would still be usefull if it needed to be moved to say the kids room as a seperate tv later.
