Logging Error â can not start tray, config, pvrx
When trying to start tray, config or pvrx all immediately end with the windows message âthe program has encountered a problem ⦠and is being closed ⦠do you want to send a report to Microsoftâ
In the logs I find an immediate error âUnhandled exception â¦. Font â¦â
While the logs are in the correct place âC:\Program files\Denze\GBPVR\logsâ,
It seems that it is looking for fonts at âF:\Windows\Fontsâ.
I will not go into the many hours, etc. it took me to figure this out. I reinstalled GBPVR a number of times.
If I mount an empty drive as âF:â create a folder named âWindowsâ that contain only the folder âFontsâ in which I copy all the fonts â
EVERYTHING works and runs fine.
I can even start pvrx and while it runs go and delete or rename the âF:\Windows\Fontsâ folder,
It keeps on running fine. It seems to be looking for the fonts for logging at an incorrect location.
Obviously there is some setting somewhere that is causing this incorrect path.
BUT after many hours of searching, etc .
I have no idea on what setting or where or how to change it or fix this problem.
I just got a MVP to play around with and I read that ZProcess was designed to make things easier. So, I followed the wiki and installed the newest Ztools prerelease version.
After installing it I tried testing it by transcoding the 16-9 Pattern.wmv test file. I'm not having much luck.
If I choose mencoder, it fails with the following on the debug console:
Cannot find codec 'mp2v' in libavcodec...
Couldn't open video filter 'lavc'.
Failed to open the encoder.
If I choose ffmpeg, it fails with the following in transcode.log:
I tried VLC as well. At first, it failed because of a syntax error in the arguments; apparently, vlc:quit is no longer valid (it is now vlc://quit). I installed an older version of VLC (0.8.6i), and finally got a transcoded video file, though distorted.
I'm sure I am doing something wrong, but so far I have not had much luck. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
I'v been looking at the Leadtek WinFast DTV2000 H, does anyone know if this card is supported? Can it be used for reception of cable signals? HDTV? How about pay-tv (with some soft-cam perhaps)? Any other suggestions?
I recently installed a HVR-2250 in a new XP computer and watching Live TV is very choppy with almost no sound. When I open WinTV my reception is excellent and smooth - perfect.
I have Videotron Illico plugged right into the card. And in the configuration I have the correct card selected.
Hi I have previously installed MVP succesfully but chose to go the way of GB-PVR to have live TV access through MVP. With the initial MVP install start up MVP had a hard time finding my server but on re-searching about 5 times it found the IP and everything ran fine.
I then installed succesfully installed GB-PVR. I then uninstalled the MVP software and checked that the Hauppauge services were deleted. Rebooted everything and my trouble started!
The MVP gives the error message "No streaming server found" I press OK to rescan (it takes around 5 rescans) and the server name, IP and preferred server show on screen. I press OK to accept it saves (takes up to 30 seconds) then shows the "Checking network status" message. Then the error message appears "MVP unable to detect your previously saved ..."
I am running a wired connection of MVP to the router and have tried both wired and wireless connections between the computer (Asus notebook) and the router (Netgear). I have tried with the TrendMicro firewall disabled.
I tried searching the forums and simply can't find this question being fully answered.
1. How many HD PVR(s) will actually work on a single computer with GBPVR?
and has anyone actually got more then one working with it and can you
provide details?
2. How much is supported using a popcorn hour A110? What works what does not? etc.
My personal goal is to try and build something similar to AT&T's Total Home DVR (a.k.a. U-verse)
And I am very ... very tired of waiting for my provider to actually catch up with technology when the products they offer have been replaced with multi room versions YEARS ago
In the TV guide there are always randomly placed missing entries. i.e. "no data" is displayed. The worst case is film4 and film4 +1, where I can see program details for the next few hours but no further.
When I turn the pc on the next day and navigate the guide to film4, there are the listings for the next few hours but no further.
Film4 is the worst, but other channels do it also.
So clearly the data exists, I have double checked by opening the xmltv file and manually scrolling through and can confirm the info is there.
Can anyone offer any advice on how to begin to attempt to resolve this.
I am sorry, I've been trying for a week to setup my system with an ATI 650 pci -e card.
I cannot be sure I am doing this correctly, because none of the Wiki's have screen shots of ATI cards & alot of the label's seem to not agree to the option's I find in GBpvr Setup.
Currently, this is how I have my Capture source's configured.
I have 1 labeled ATI1.
The "recording source" is set to "digital recording plugin"
I only have that and
"analog recording plugin" and
"analog HighDef Recording plugin"
Available.
Under settings for that, which calls itself "digital source configuration"
Currently I have a field labeled device type & when I choose "only show detected devices"
It shows ATI 650 pro (ATSC) - Selected
or (DVB-T) or (QAM)
With that set, it shows up in my Capture source list as "BDA Recording plugin"
When I go to GBPVR to test live TV, it seems to go away from the menu for a second & fail back to black.
Things I forgot :
OK w/EPG from Schedules direct. It populates the channels.
Channel check box's don't seem to stay populated & the column's are different depending on whether editing my analog or digital
The tuning checker can scan thru channels.
The web interface seems to not be working.
OS is Vista32 bit...
Drivers downloaded vista 32 & 64bit, XP 32 & 64 bit... not sure what my cards are using. I only see "AVI Unified AVStream Driver" in my device manager. Do not see an ATI tuner card.
I have two lineups setup in Schedules Direct. One for analog and one for digital. I am trying to setup channel logos. I already had logos setup for my analog channels. I am running XP SP3. The Channel Logo Tool only shows the previously setup analog channels, so there is no way to assign logos to the digital channels. I also get an exception when entering the mapping screen. The popup has a continue option and it seems to work. Is there a way around this. Can I delete my analog tuners and maybe just map the digital tuners and keep the mapping for the analog channels? And then add the analog tuners back. Or do I need to delete the lineup for analog channels in Schedules Direct, map the digital channels, and then add the analog lineup back? The checkbox for SchedulesDirect Detected is checked. Using CLT 3.73.
I just installed PowerDVD (tried 7 & 8) to check out it's de-interlacing capabilties in GBPVR, and indeed it is the best of those I have (Intervideo, nVidia and various others), quite obvious with BBC News 24's ticker.
However, it has a habit of freezing on black or even very dark scenes, while the audio continues - only leaving and returning to the channel will get out of it (I was watching "The Descent" on More 4 last night, so this was about every 5 minutes - gave up and went to another decoder).
Interestingly, a similar thing happens in Hauppauge WinTV using 'overlay', but bringing up any in-picture info (volume etc) gets out of it.
