I loaded latest comskip files (exe, ini, dlls and postprocessing.bat - the last one i put after recording was done) into default GB-PVR directory.
Since then all recordings have (besides MPG file) four files created by comskip (correct me if wrong):
movie_name_date_starttime_endtime.edl
movie_name_date_starttime_endtime.log
movie_name_date_starttime_endtime.txt
movie_name_date_starttime_endtime.logo.txt
But new movie file (without commercials) is never created (or i do something wrong).
My current config settings are set to convert ASAP-4am, MPG auto-convert to XVID (tried No conversion also) and I did not check running comskip on live recording (during recording).
Please let me know what I am missing or did wrong. Last recording has been taken on 01/09/2009 10pm-11pm. I have restarted system several times since then but my system usually runs 24/7 all the time (except for maintenance of course). Logs & created comskip files attached (do not know if they contain information needed for troubleshooting).
Can i run comskip conversion manually? what parameters do i use then?
I think the Runtime description in the Video Library has a bug, the @duration tag seems to be displaying the Rating text from the metadata.

I'm beta testing W7 and of course, throwing things at it so why not install GBPVR? For the most part, things are ok but after installing Graphedit, when I boot up, I appear to get 2 instances of GBPVR in the tray. At least I think it happened due to Graphedit. I only see 1 instance in startup but I also have the Recording Status showing 8 sources that starts in the 'new and improved' taskbar and can't figure out if that's due to Graphedit or just a conflict with W7.
Anyone else playing around with W7? I think the beta we testers have is the same as the public beta.
I have a fresh install of Windows XP and I'd like to install the minimum codecs for playback on most videos. I've heard installing a codec pack (k-lite) is not always the best method. Any recommendations/feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Why does the language always default back to English ... I'd like English US?
Hi all, just a quick question about the new multi record function. It is my understanding that in order to record from the same tuner at the same time the channels need to be broadcast on the same frequency. How do I find out what frequencies are being used and is this standard throughout NZ and also the same for DVB-T and DVB-S?
A question now for sub, is there any plan at all to add some kind of visual reference to gbpvr so users can easily tell when multi record is available? I imagine when a recording is scheduled the programs at the same time on other channels on the same frequency could have an icon to show they are available for multi recording on the same tuner. This would really clear things up and prevent the loss of padding when recording two channels from one tuner. This multi record is an awesome feature and a method like I describe would really allow users to make the most of it.
Using Antenna to HVR-1800 ATSC and Cable box to PVR-150MCE. When programs are scheduled to record on both devices simultaneusly the recording service crashes in less than 30 seconds - the antenna doesn't record at all and the cable box records less than 30 seconds and then stops. The GBPVR recording service stops altogether.
Attached are logs from tonight.
Any help would be appreciated.
This was happenning under 1.3.7 and I waited to post until I verified it on 1.3.11 as well.
Hi, I can usually play ripped DVDs no problems. However, I have just ripped one (using the DVD Ripper plugin as usual) and when I try to play it all I get is a blank screen and no audio.
lastdvdgraph shows that the graph has been constructed correctly, and if I load and play that graph in Graphedit then it seems to play fine.
The logs (zipped, attached) do show an error, but I don't know what it means!
Other ripped DVDs play fine, and the DVD itself also plays fine - it's only after I've ripped it I have a problem.
I've tried other codecs (MPC, Cyberlink, Purevideo, Nero) with similar results.
Is anyone having issues with the "prompt for resume" feature (besides me)? I'm using 1.3.11 and I can't get it to work. I keep thinking I've got something set wrong, but I can't find anything and it simply isn't working. Just asking for now. I'll post logs later.
Today I tried ZProcess for the first time as my wife wants to watch home videos of our small children with sound on our MVP's on GB-PVR. I am running version 1.3.11. I followed the instructions on the wiki for installing ZProcess (including MVPScreenPosition).
When I then started the MVP the interface was corrupt, with buttons shifted and the screen black. Finding a video was difficult and playing it would result in the MVP re-booting, even with the sorry mpeg in the correct place.
I then tried the pre-release version with the same results.
Deleting the ZProcess files and clearing the registry has repaired the interface problems but now trying to play an avi reboots the MVP. Tonight I will re-install gb-pvr to restore the functionality I had before trying ZProcess.
Does anyone have any ideas what I may have done wrong?
I have recently (last night) upgraded to 1.3.11 and had hoped it would solve a problem I have had for a while in version 1.1.5, but alas no.
On the whole the MVP interface is brilliant but when I skip (>|) or press (>>) whilst watching a recording on the MVP I often (but not always) have two problems.
1) Sometimes the audio gets out of sync by a fraction of a second. This can sometimes be corrected by stopping the playback and resuming it. If that fails pressing the replay (|<) button once or twice usually sorts it out.
2)Sometimes, usually after half an hour or so of recording playback, the (>|), (|<), (>>) and (<<) buttons stop working correctly. It starts when the skip button only moves playback on by 2 seconds or so and this degenerates until it actually makes the playback go backwards to a point before the current (much like a rewind button should). Nothing seems to resolve this for a particular recording. If I play another recording the problem doesn't appear but reverting back to one which exhibited the problem and it returns immediately.
I can supply any logs that you think may be helpful - just let me know which.
My PC is a 3.0 Ghz P4 with 2Gb RAM servicing 2 MVP's
