I have been working to setup up GBPVR using a Hauppauge HVR-1250 card to Comcast cable north of Boston. I have verified with Hauppauge's WinTV that the cable uses HRC frequencies. I have also used the GBPVR TuningAssistant and verified that indeed HRC frequencies are needed to tune in cable channels.

My problem is that I can not figure out how to get GBPVR set up or QAM channel scan to use HRC frequencies. So, I have no channels/no TV.

In my searching on this forum and the Wiki for a solution I came across reply made by serisman that said:

"For my setup, I also had to import HRC frequency overrides into my registry. You can find the registry file I used here:
http://www.fusionhdtv.co.kr/ENG/Support/...&SCATID=44"

The link gives a file that clearly puts a US cable HRC tuning set of frequencies into the registry. But, how to make GBPVR use them? Or, in other words, putting these numbers into the registry did not solve my problem.

If it matters I am on Vista32 Home Premium with SP1.

What step am I missing/how to make GBPVR use HRC cable tuning????

I currently have an analog TV and running GVPVR with it. I have set up a four device component switch to switch between my wii and GBPVR (and a DVD player). If my computer running GBPVR is running and I switch to another component and then switch back, my screen display is black (as if there is no signal going from my computer to the TV).

The only way to do it without error is to make sure my computer is in standby and switch devices. Has anyone encountered this? Anyway of fixing this? It's starting to get annoying!

I recently made a fresh install of GBPVR 1.3.7. I installed the new config.exe to correct the BBC channels not being found. I have a number of channels empty in the epg(ITV1 ITV2 ITV3 ITV4 C4 C4+1 E4 MORE4).

I have refreshed the epg several times and unset 'completely reload epg'.

Any further ideas? (logs enc.) Thanks in advance.

I have been looking for a solution to this problem for days now...

I have got a HVR 1800 MCE Kit and a pvr 150 card.
The kit comes with the "beanbag" receiver and option to run 2 ir blasters.

I have 2 Sat. receivers that I want to change channels on. Problem is, only the #2 port blaster works. #1 seems dead. I have tried Girder,Hip, and every combo of the replacement drivers for the MCE remote.

Pouring over 100's of posts, and many forums, looks like I'm not the only one stuck with this problem?

When I got the pvr150 card way back, it too was a "MCE Kit" back then I tried to use the #1 blaster port and it didn't work. I just used #2 with no problem, since I only had one sat. box.


So, could this be a hardware issue? Both my old "Kit" and my new "Kit" don't seem to be blasting on port #1.

I am running XP pro. latest PVRx2.

I have installed the latest version on a new Vista machine and am having problems on replay. Initially I had no sound and in desperation installed Pinnacle TV Center Pro in the hope that it would add all necessary codecs.

My files now play perfectly through the Pinnacle program but on GBPVR the sound is in slow motion. Live TV plays fine as do Netradio and MP3s. Does anybody have a suggestion?

Hi sub, can you find what transponder the EPG for fashion TV, and if there the weather channel??

Ta.

I just moved my TV tuner to a computer running Vista. Now when I watch live TV, I'm only getting four buttons on screen: +, -, ||, X.

For every channel, I can't rewind the live video unless I press the "||" (pause) button first, then I get the extra buttons for timeshifting such as rewind and fast forward. But when I switch the channel, only the four buttons show up again. Isn't there a way to always enable the timeshifting buttons for each channel by default?

Sub,

Can you provide a little explanation on this flag.

the change note states
DVB EPG will now harvest listings for channels on other muxes if <DvbEpgHarvestOtherServices> is set to 'true' in config.xml

Hello all,

I am new to this HTPC software and am comming over from the snapstream crowd.. (This is much better )

I have installed everything (Did a fresh install of Vista, etc. Capture card works, blaster works in the config utility but not in GBPVR... One interesting item I noticed is the blaster flashes look "stronger" than when GBPVR does the call out. The flashes seem more like "flickers" (Or incoherent giberish). If you have any ideas please let me know.

BTW, I am using Haublast.exe and have set it up in the capture devices.

Hey all, another new guy to GBPVR. I'm using a Hauppauge 1600 card with OTA hooked up to the ATSC connector and output from a satellite box to the QAM/Analog connector. I'm using mc2xml for the EPG and haven't had any problem downloading info from Titantv. Where I am having problems is in the Guide.

I have the set-top box captured as an analog device where I've added only one channel named "Dish". I have added the OTA to the digital recording plugin, updated the EPG, and mapped digital channels to EPG. I can see the channels, about 50, in the preview window so I know it's seeing the channels, I enable the channels I want, I then press Update EPG again and exit the program.

When I start the Guide, the only channel that shows is the analog one. I tried to Update the EPG from the Guide as well, but still only get the analog channel. What might I be doing wrong?

Thanks for your help,
Dave
