I have a Hauppauge WinTV PVR 150MCE card that didn't come with a remote. I'd like to be able to do basic things in GB-PVR like change the channels, record, etc, with a remote. Can anyone recommend a good remote that's widely available and plug-and-play for use with GB-PVR?
Not really a question but more a warning. The computer on which I run GBPVR rcently became infected with a new variant of Trojan.DNS-changer. I noticed the infection since, when booting the computer, it would immediately reboot at the point when GB-PVR Recording Service started. I was only able to boot the computer by going into safe mode and disabling the Recording Service. This is a symptom of the virus which I have not seen reported elsewhere and is only of interest to those of us running GB-PVR. Thinking the problem was with corrupted GBPVR files I unnecessarily reinstalled GB-PVR although the program itself is in no way affected by the virus. (I expect sub will be able to explain why it causes the crash).
Other symptoms of the virus are inability to open MyComputer by double clicking (although you can Explore it by right clicking) and clicking on a link, after doing a Google search, will redirect you to different link.
The virus is transmitted by opening an infected networked drive, USB stick or USB drive or if you download dodgy video codecs.
Howsit?
Had 1.2.13 installed no problems at all. Upgraded to 1.2.7 and get live TV really good. BUT - Blank screen no audio on playback of recorded TV. Blank screen no audio when in timeshift mode as well. ie when pausing during live TV. I noted all settings of 1.2.13 and applied same but still have this problem. I have installed PowerCinema6 as I heard this may help with codecs but still no go.
I note that the muxchecker finds no multiplexors on my system however I have TS mux enabled and am recording ok to a TS file.
1.2.13 was working so well. Why the probs with 1.3.7? I suspect it is a decoder problem but it worked with the previous release?:confused:
Log files attached - Can't seem to attach files - link broken?
I have installed a Hauppauge HVR-930c USB at a friends place. It worked fine after adding the below entries to bda.ini - both can be added to device database (second one for the DVB-T side, untested).
However, the DVB-EPG update (unecrypted channels only) gave me an error after 59 seconds and at a second and subsequent attempts empty listings (=no EPG). Two sets of logs are attached. Is this GBPVR related or does Kabeldeutschland use a non-standard DVB-EPG?
I used GBPVR on a number of non-client machines simply as a multimedia GUI.
I would be nice in these instances to be able to have an option to not starting the recording service. It's just less clutter on start-up. (one of these machines is an atom netbook - which is great - but with limited power you appreciate lean
I have tried disabling the service in windows admin - but from memory that caused the config to hang (?)
Every time I put in a new DVD If I try to play it, it just goes black screen. If I exit GBPVR and restart works again every time, just a hassle. Any known issues with this?
