My recording information are all corrupt and I have now started to restore the information but I am running into problems.

Using the tool VidImport I have restored the information but all Swedish characters are incorrect. I then exported the recordings and corrected the characters in the recording_dump.xml file.

Now, I would like to import the corrected file but I get the information that all recordings already exists. How do I clear the stored recording info in the db so that an import would take?

Thanks,

Hi folks,

After some time of observing the forums looking for answers while building a test rig the time has come to bit the bullet and get a system built for purpose.

I have a Silverstone GD01-MX case turning up in the next couple of days, which brings me to my point; As the case has an inbuilt IR receiver I'd rather not have to use an external USB reciever to hang an IR blaster off to control the Sky box (I plan to feed the Sky box in via a S-VHS connection on a capture card for recording).

Is anyone aware of either a USB or Serial IR Transmitter that would be supported or usable? Hardware wise I've found a serial transmitter usable with MythTV, but with out software of some kind it's pretty useless. All suggestions welcome.

I've done the usual forum search, but couldn't find anything, which could well be me. Apologies if the answer is there I couldn't find it.

I use a .exe channel changer that simply gets the channel information from GBPVR (by selecting to use a .exe. channel changer in the TV source settings config). This then simply runs eventghost to transmit the 3 digits.

It works great when I change channels but doesn't seem to be executed with a scheduled recording. The recording takes place but to all intents and purposes it looks like the channel changer is not being called.

It works no prob with v1.3.7.

Any suggestions as to what I can try ?

Thanks.

I look after a friend's GBPVR and he has reported that recordings aren't being stored. I have remotely accessed his system and found it said it was recording a program from a week ago! But there was no file in the recordings folder. I killed that and looked at his pendings. There are three there that have earlier dates (like a week ago!) and they won't cancel.

I guess it looks as if the database has got corrupted. Any advice as to what to do would be welcome.

I upgraded recently. I beleive my problems started upon upgrade, but not certain.

I am recording in dvr-ms, as I had trouble in prior version with TS. I am recording QAM channels. the particular cases tonight are with channel 13, which is CBS, in std def, as HD had issues with CBS.

When looking at NCIS (recorded 7 to 8) and Mentalist (8 to 9), there were almost no commercial breaks showing. Mentalist had a part of first commercial.

I have GBPVR set to use comskip, and comskip to make info available during show. It has worked great until Monday. On Sunday, superbowl comskip was just fine.

I have no parallelprocessing or postprocessing bat files active.

I am attaching the comskip files from the run during the recording. I then ran comskip manually (twice), and both time it stopped around 85-89% complete (got most commercials). Including those files as well. Finally, including all gbpvr logs from tonight.

I also changed early Sunday (or Saturday night) from Symantec AV to Macaffee. Howevver, taht change was before the superbowl. I doubt that was the issue.

Monday night program also showed no comskip results when we played a show back (also channel 13).

Could be something wrong in config after the changeover, either comskip or gbpvr. I did not change comskip program. Running 80.007, been fine for some time.

Thanks

and it it called by pvrx2 or the recording service?

I'm thinking about trying to get a s1 based standby working to let the hard drives spin down every so often.

So to get that working i need to shut down pvrx2 to get the windows screen saver to take effect. And so on wake up it would be nice if I could restart pvrx2.

I have STB that can record using ip pvr. I have a special program on computer what can receive ip stream from receiver and save it in file. Generaly I dont need a capture card. Recording functonality on stb is very basic so I want use GBPVR to control FTA, just sending commands using usbuirt.
Do you know any plugin or how I can config GBPVR just to send command to record but do not actually record and take file from folder. I don't know GBPRV, I just learn possibilities.
Thanks

Hello

I'm not getting sound when playing various types of video file in GBVR (1.3.11) but when I load up lastgraph in graphedit straight after they all play fine.

I've tried just about every combination of decoders and renderers but I can't get a peep out of it.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

Hello,

I'm probably missing something simple here, but the options to configure streaming do not show up in the EWA config page for me. I have 0.8.6F installed on the server currently. I also do not get the streaming button for live TV.

Any help would be most appreciated.
