If you've been holding off purchasing AnyDVD or AnyDVD HD, now would be a good time to do it. They are doing away with there free lifetime updates and moving to an annual subscription plan. All purchases made before the change will continue to receive the free lifetime updates.

SlySoft announces new update policy

Since Slysoft's beginnings in 2003, all Slysoft product licenses have
been sold with free product lifetime updates included. While standards,
technologies and SlySoft's product range have changed significantly
since 2003, only now has Slysoft's free lifetime update policy been
reviewed with respect to converting to an annual subscription fee format
for new license purchases.

According to SlySoft CEO Giancarlo Bettini, this change is justified and
will ensure first class products and future development:
"Our portfolio already contains eight products, and there is another
program in the pipeline. Each product is continuously being enhanced by
first-class developers; each product gets 24/7 top-notch multilingual
support. Our premises became a bit crowded in the last couple of years,
and, to be honest, we may not have reached our limits yet. Something
needs to be done in order to not only ensure Slysoft's continued
commitment to excellence but to also promote future improvements:
namely, growth and development. With respect to current financial
challenges the current economy presents, modifying our update policy
seems to be the only fair and reasonable step in lieu of a substantial
price increase. Details are yet to be determined and will follow."

In fairness, SlySoft announces this probable step well in advance of its
implementation in order to provide all interested parties with the
opportunity to purchase SlySoft products with guaranteed lifetime free
updates. Those buyers who act quickly during this time can also save an
additional 20% with the special ongoing Christmas promotion.

Having problems with PVRX's TV Guide. “No Show Details” is being displayed.

In config.exe (for each of the two SiliconDust tuners) use EPG Source: XMLTV Plugin and set to C:\Program Files\Devnz\GBPVR\EPG\xmltv.xml- > Empty EPG -> Update EPG.

Start PVRX -> System- >Update EPG-> “ reads in updated XML file”
Goto TV Guide -> “No Show Details” is displayed.

I can watch TV but no EPG functionality.

Any suggestions? Attached is the config.exe.log for review.


Thanks

Trying to re-do my SkipTool install.

I have installed now the older version 1.2.13 of GBPVR should i uninstall this version before installing the newer 1.3.7 version of GBPVR??


PC is windows XP pro service pack 3

This looks like a cool way to "take it with you" to a friend or family member's house.

I just started messing with GB-PVR, here's what I have so far.

-An older workstation with a Pentium 4 (don't know the speed off the top of my head, it's descent) and 1gb of RAM.

-HVR-1600 card

-Radeon 7000 going out S-Video converted to RCA and into a normal TV (nothing fancy, just a plain old TV). I don't need HD, as long as I have a clear picture I'm happy.

-Using on board sound card

-Windows XP Pro that I leaned way down using nLite

Here's my situation:
I've been messing with live TV, haven't started trying to record or anything yet. Everything works fine for the most part except the audio occasional stutters, mostly when changing channels, no big deal, but the picture looks somewhat pixelated. It keeps up and is pretty smooth, but it isn't as clear as I think it should be.

And here's my question:
I have an extra 4x AGP slot (but it has to be low profile so I think my options will be limited), would a better graphics card help with the pixelation? I guess I don't know what is causing the pixelation.

I also have an old sound blaster card I could throw in to help out with CPU load.

Just heard about this:

'World's Smallest Desktop PCs with HD Capability'

There are 2 models, both with 802.11n, GigaNet, 4 USB, and card readers.
One has a built in UPS and Bluetooth.

The original Eee box was around $300.

I finally got around to upgrading form a very odl rev...

and now on the MVP when I pause a recording..the timer that used ot be at the top of the screen that showed your location in a replay..is missing.

This does still show up when using the PC, and I ma not using the minimal OSD

I tried searching through teh condig GUI and also the forums and I can;t seem to figure this out

any help is much appreciated!

I just rebuilt my PC, and everything is working fine - except for when I went to set the autostart MVP servers to 1.
Now when the recording service restarts, I get a window showing titled "MVP Controller" which says "This window is an MVP server process, if you close it your MVP session will end"

I can't see the window initially, but if I alt tab without another window open it pops up - or if there is another window open, it shows on the list of open apps.

Has anyone else had this problem, and more importantly know how to stop it appearing?
