Hi.

Here is situation:
I create sheduled recordings, then my HTPC goes in to sleep mode.
When it is time, HTPC wake up to start record.
HTPC is recoding.
Now if i put TV (monitor) on, i only see black screen instead of desktop.
I need to wait until recoring is finished, and HTPC go in to sleep mode, then manualy wake up - now desktop apear.

The question is - is that normal? I there a way how to use HTPC even if sheduled recording?

I am using XP SP3 on Intel HD4500

Thanks for any tips!

PS: sorry for my english.

First off I want to say that this looks like a fantastic piece of software!

Now on to my problem. I installed gbpvr just fine and the configuration went smoothly. My problem seems to have begun when I opened the software for the first time and changed the theme from blue to the other one. (cant remember the name) After I changed that, the program locked up and I had to force quit. since then, whenever I try to launch it, I get a generic error that pvrx2 has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling. when I reinstall, everything is fine until the very end of the install process and then it gives the same error and closes.

I am attaching the zipped log files and would appreciate any help!

Thanks!

Hi,

Hopefully a stupid question, how do bring up Teletext with GB-PVR??

Thanks

all i see is 'next recording', but i'd love to see what's recording now if possible..
and maybe next underneath that...
what do the @nowNextSoonNamePeriod mean? should it cycle thru now,next,soon?

completely forgot about this feature! [busy putting same info up on my vfd..lol]
man i missed it...

Hi,
I've done some searches on the site but haven't really gotten the straight answer.
Is there a free EPG (Program guide) for US? It seems like the instructions are sending me to scheduledirect, which is $20/year. Not terrible price but wanted to double check first.

Thanks

I have the latest version (1.3.11) installed in Windows MCE. Due to some security concerns with browsing the web, I wanted to change the primary account to "limited" rather than "administrator".

PVRX2 still runs and records just fine. However, I found that I could not delete a program after we watched it. I tried a number of things. I then right-clicked the icon on the desktop and selected "run as", and ran as an admin. Then I was able to delete the files. So, for now I have returned the account to admin.

I don't know why MS only gives the choice of Admin or limited, but that's all that is there. I do not see any user-based permissions on the folders, or I would try changing that.

Recordings worked fine. Just delete (so far).

Is there anything I can change to allow running everyday as a limited user?

Thanks

Okay, so I have a cable splitter on my OTA antenna with one output going to the tv directly and the other going to my HTPC connected to the TV via HDMI port.

I'm watching the Leafs vs Canadians game on live ATSC TV and switching back and forth between the ATSC TV input and the HDMI input. I find a very noticeable difference in smoothness for fast motion action scenes such as the side scrolling down the ice that is done frequently on NHL games.

Firstly, I assume that the quality of components in my $100 Theater 650 PRO tv capture card and my integrated ATI 3200 HD GPU should be lesser than my those components in my TV that are decoding and displaying the ATSC signal.... but should I be expecting a noticeable difference in quality on fast motion?

Secondly, should I expect that i can bring the HTPC closer in-line with the performance on the ATSC tuner of my TV? If so, how do I go about tuning the performance of GBPVR and/or my HTPC to provide similar performance to the TV alone? Which settings should I be looking at tweaking? Is there a FAQ somewhere to help me along?

I'm trying to set up the second analog tuner for my 2250 now, and it's been giving me problems. When I first create it under Capture Sources in config, and try to click Ok, it give me an error message: "The Drivers for the device you have configured do not seem to be installed. Are you sure you want to save these current settings?"

This time, just to be sure my logs would show it, I said yes, updated my epg, and then went into pvrx2, set up two analog recordings (convertx = device 1, 2250 analog 1 = device 2 and the new troublesome 2250 tuner = device 3), and then tried to watch a 3rd analog channel to see if the new tuner might work anyway, predictably, it doesn't--there was just a blank screen when I tried to watch the show, and then it went back to the TV Guide when I clicked, though the other two recorded fine. This was the last thing I did before zipping the logs, so it should be right at the end.

Of course, the drivers are installed, and GBPVR works fine with the first analog tuner. Just not the second one.

My drivers are listed in my sig. Thanks in advance for any tips you might have.
