I recently had to rebuild my GBPvr server and ever since have not been able to change channels properly from the client PC. If I start watching a channel from the TV Guide, then escape back to the TV Guide menu, then select another channel, everything works properly (this is currently my workaround). However, if I change channels while I am already in LiveTV mode, either by entering a channel directly or by Channel UP/Down, I get the following errors. I should note that the server is configured for TS Mux and file sharing.
1) Occasionally, after a couple channel changes I will get sound with a black screen
2) After the second channel change, if I press F1 for the guide, it appears to be somewhat garbled, and the background is transparent, even though I am running in Overlay mode (the OSD has the normal black background when first entering LiveTV mode).
3) If I press escape from LiveTV, instead of returning the display to the menu, I get an still image of the show that was on the previous channel (before the channel change). GBPvr appears to be locked up at this point, at least it will not respond to any keystrokes such as escape.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Edit: Still cannot figure out why channel changes are broke, but I reinstalled the old image of my server, resolved the original issue I was having with it, and not channel changes are back to normal.
I'm trying to get GBPVR going with a Pinnacle HD Pro for ATSC and a Pinnacle HD Mini Stick for QAM.
The sticks work in the Pinnacle TV Center Pro software
They are recognized by GBPVR as "present in the system"
When I get to the step for mapping the digital channels to the EPG I get a message box beginning with "GBPVR was unable to start the BDA Device you have configured.... ". Config then crashes
I'm a including a zip file with
bda.ini
filtercheck.log
config.exe.log and
config.exe-native.log
For episodic shows that I would like to keep around for a while, it would be fun to have an extra feature in the record dialog.
When some of these repeat, I'd like to rerecord episodes that already exist, and remove the older entry. That would let me get rid of some items that might have comskip/ quality/ hardware / whatever differences.
I am not sure if GBPVR is meant to be like this, but it would defeat the object if it is so.
Scheduled recording does not select the channel to record. I have seen that there is no flashing of the IR blaster led's when recording begins. This is the same for quick and manual recording. So it seems GBPVR is not sending channel change to HIP.
However channel changing works fine in other respects, ie viewing manually or selecting from EPG. I am using an MCE which is configured okay.
I have trouble recording. Sometimes it works but more often it do not work at all. I have no problems watching TV or switching channels though.
I have submitted the logs for one scenario.
I start watching one channel without problem.
Then I start recording the same show by pressing the record button.
Now the screen gets black and I have to close the Live TV and go back to the menu.
OK, I was monkeying around last night, upgrading to PVRX2 1.3.7, and I did something that has removed the choice of Music Library2 in the config app. I've tried to re-unzip the files from the download, but I must be missing something.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Jeff
I just started over with a clean load of XP and GBPVR. I am trying to use the Multi-Record feature but I am not having much luck. I think I am missing something real simple, btu wanted to check with some of the experts.
I have the following
Hauppauge 1600 setup as QAM
Athlon 65 3500+
1gb memory
plenty of disk space
I am able to watch live tv and recorded shows. I have not completed a recording yet so I do not know if I am having the issue with 0kb files yet.
When I try to schedule more than 1 show at a time, I get the message that there is a conflict. I can post logs if necessary, but I think this is a configuration problem more than anything. I do have the multi-record checked and TS-Mux selected. is there anything else I should do to get this working.
