Hello,
I was able to modify pvruser's Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 950 analog settings to get analog working for the 950Q.

Make sure you have the Hauppauge MCE soft encoder installed and add the following to the direct.ini file in the GBPVR folder.

I've been pretty happy with my regular old analog tunning GBPVR machine. it works with no problems to speak of. but I have been reading a lot about QAM, ATSC, and digital stuff. I have a HVR-1600 and always wondered what goes to it's digital side? and what do these terms mean.

my service is basic cable, and comes in @480. I know my provider offers digital, but nothing that says HD. is digital/qam/atsc automatically HD or can it be 480 as well?
also do the antennas marked for digital over the air hdtv ready, do they tune 720 right over the air? (I'm surrounded by local tv towers) and is this antenna only for my digital tuner?

Sorry if these questions are basic, I've been reading through the forums a lot, and just can't get a grasp on what you guys are talking about. Especially qam, that seems the most complicated...

I am trying to build a GBPVR client machine running Windows XP PRO. I am looking to add a usb receiver. However, all the ones I found so far within my price range ($30) only support Vista MCE or XP MCE.

I am less concerned about the remote because I can use a basic one, may be an MCE remote.

Anyway, I have looked through many forums, but was not able to answer the question whether a usb IR receiver the supports MCE (Vista or XP) will work at all on XP Pro.

If you have a suggestion for a decent USB receiver and remote, please let me know. I do not need any tuners, or a blaster for this client machine.

Thanks in advance.

I have the Firefly remote, & I am using LM Remote Keymap to map the buttons. I have everything working in GBPVR with this setup but cannot get the mini-guide (CTL+G) & the OSD (CTL+B) to work thru the remote. When I use the keyboard these key combinations work perfectly.

I've read the instructions at the LM site & these two keyboard strokes are the only ones I can't get to work.

Anyone else run into this?

Happy Holidays to all from cold WNY.

Hi, converted a movie from .ts to .avi with an external xvid converter.

Should the recordings plugin pick up this new .avi file where before it was .ts??

Does it require a recording service/pvrx2 restart to make it take effect?? At the moment pvrx2 thinks that the recording is missing and only gives me the delete option.

Hi
hope you all had a nice X-mas

I am building a new gbpvr box (old one been running since now -05)
This time I am going all digital and have a dvb-s card (hvr 4000)
I have a dreambox with one local subscribtioncard and one remote over wan
everything is up and running with switches,signal and so on.

I have GBPVR 1.3.7 on Vista and have done the XML, capture source config.
scanning worked fine all channels showed up but only FTA ones in preview window. Watching free channel works great.

I then added MDAPIFilter and the Vista trayicon from the latest ver.
starting a decrypted channel via tvguide now gives me the tray icon.
I started with wincsc as client-plugin and have solved the connection to the dreamboxs port and it reports reading the local card via the gui from the tray.

I get no picture in livetv on this decrypted channel just black and after a while it hangs.

From the MDAPIFilter.log I find this error:

29-12-2008 22:45:39 [ERROR] [MAIN] Decrypter::LoadFFDeCSAdll() LoadLibrary failed with error 14001: Programmet kunde inte starta eftersom programmets sida-vid-sidakonfiguration är felaktig. Kontrollera händelseloggen för ytterligare information.

Translation from 14001: (onward due to non english OS)
"the program could not start due to the programs side-to-sideconfiguration is wrong. check eventlog for more information."

from the event log i find (also translated)
It was not possible to create activatingcontext for C:\Program Files\Devnz\GBPVR\MDPlugins\FFDecsa.dll. The depending composition Microsoft.VC90.CRT,processorArchitecture="x86",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="9.0.21022.8" could not be found. Use sxstrace.exe if you want to diagnos further.

I cant find the sxstrace on the system!
does any one have a suggestion?

I have noticed with some programs I record on channel 5 (Freesat DVB-S) that the frame rate isnt correct, sound and picture quality is good, but frame rate seems like it's from a flip book (hope that makes sense)

anyway tonight I was watching live TV through the PCH and it was the same.

I am guessing it's something specific to the channel

Anybody any ideas?

This is where we can discuss changes, additions, and omissions to the \_CoreImages folder.

None of these changes have been made yet.

I have studied the images further, and am re-doing the list on..
http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Devel...mmonImages

On the wiki I am adding a column to indicate what is an editable image item by the skinplugin (may not be up to date). Suggested sizes may also need to be revised. I also indicate which images are used by blue, to confirm compatibility.

Apart from making it easier to read, do the channels have to be at the top of an xmltv file or can they be within the data....

Example:

Hey the title says it.

It's the 150 XP-home model with a 120G HDD and 1G RAM. There is heaps of info here:
http://www.aspireoneuser.com/forum/index.php

It motors along very nicely and is plenty powerful for everything except graphical games and serious image/video editing.

I got it for a bargain AUD$418 after cashback! It looks like some are ~USD$300 and even less if you are prepared to sign-up for a 3G contract.

I also see on a few sites that Nvidia's new Ion chipset will have some decent graphics http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3478 This would make for a killer netbook.

Just think - with this sort of kit you could keep an eye on the GBPVR forum from any cafe, beach or bar.
