I like the new skin, and I don't want to sound ungrateful, but ...

in Video Library, the thumbnail sticks. The first video that has a thumbnail has the piccie displayed correctly, but then as I move down the list, the thumbnail stays put, until I get to the next entry with no thumbnail, at which point the old picture disappears. The next movie with a jpg displays correctly, but this new thumbnail then hangs about until I get to the next movie with no thumbnail.

Is anyone else out there seeing this, or is it just me?

Any suggestions on how I can fix it?

PS. Many thanks to JavaWiz for his neat little WizMetadataGrabber utility

I'm going to be getting a 37" LCD 1080i, and I'm looking at Dell referbs for a system ($400)

W/ a decent video card (probably an 8600), would this be enough for a 1600 card or HD PVR to run full screen?

Inspiron Desktop 530 Mini-tower: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E4600 (2MB L2 Cache,2.4GHz,800 FSB)
3 GB DDR2 NON-ECC SDRAM 667MHz (4 DIMMs)
500 GB SATA II Hard Drive (7200 RPM)

Also, how have people's HD PVR experiences been? The newegg reviews are good, but I see people putting a lot in the "cons" section.

I was hoping in the next release that maybe you could make it so that the Green button will Re-lock the catagories set for password protection if it has been unlocked. maybe even relock if you go back to the main menu. The only way I know how to relock the content is to exit PVRX2. Awesome plugin btw.

Hi,

I was wondering would it be possible, and maybe someone has done this, to have a modification to the 'Slick' theme to make all the music/video/photo, recordings and other such lists darker so that lighter background images can be used.

Thanks

I know I must be doing something wrong but I just can't workout what. I have used the installer for my PCH A110 and all seems to be well and I am able to browse to my share on the Vista PC running GB-PVR.

I am presented with a blue PCH screen with Start and four icons (reel, note, camera and page with play symbol). I select the page with play symbol and I get to a new page.

The new page has a single item which is GB-PVR.html which I select. The screen goes blue with a white box and three selections (GB-PVR, GB-PVR via Network Browser, GB-PVR via USB). Whichever I select (although I normally go for GB-PVR) I get a new screen with "Request cannot be processed" Press Return key to return to the previous screen.

So what have I done wrong?

GB-PVR 1.3.7
Vista 32 bit ultimate
Vista PC part of Windows 2003 AD domain
PCH with latest firmware and HDD

Many thanks

Paul

Can I change the display name of a plugin in the menu?

for example: I want Movie Wizard to say "Watch a Movie" in the menu. Is there a way to do this? thanks in advance.

I can't seem to get my cover art to display. I tried naming the Jpg both "default" and "folder" and It won't come up anywhere (could you please make an option to search for cover art in the same directory in your next release). the ctrl+K feature doesn't seem to work. Any help is appreciated.

I've got other posts concerning not being able to use the Schedules Direct choice for EPG and am still working on it. However, for now, I'm using XMLTV. But, when using the xml files genereated by TVG and the XMLTV found in the wiki, I get no guide info. If I use the xml files generated by the MSN scrapper, they work great.
I can see the update working and have also emptied the EPG before updating with no luck. Is there something special about these grabbers that stops them from working with GBPVR? These are small files and upon opening them, it's obvious they're full of guide info.
Sorry but I've been spoiled with Zap2it and SD and even though simple to operate, I know very little about xmltv.

I am using the following in the latest version tp convert to ipod mp4
<Conversion name="Video Ipod" cmd="-y -i {SOURCE_FILE} -title {TITLE_SUBTITLE} -f mp4 -vcodec mpeg4 -b 1200k -s 640X480 -r 15 {DEST_FILE}" targetExtension=".mp4" />

However, I am getting large lipsync issues - being out by LOTS (ie 20 seconds) by the end of a 1.30 programme.
Any thoughts on how to solve this ?

I'm using mc2xml to download EPG data to an XMLTV file. Upon parsing it, GB-PVR reports the following:

2008-11-22 11:22:57.458 ERROR [1] XMLTV: error reading xml: The 'LF' start tag on line 188213 does not match the end tag of 'title'. Line 188213, position 64.

Curiously, the XMLTV file contains 5 occurrences of the <LF> tag, such as this :

<programme start="20081121043000 -0500" stop="20081121050000 -0500" channel="I65.28460900.microsoft.com">
<title lang="en">New Cricut Expression Crafting Machine<LF></title>
<desc lang="en">Introducing the Revolutionary new Cricut Expression, the hottest craft machine on the market. 6 new modes and several new functions. Cut through chipboard, etch glass, create your own quilt patterns, mass-produce the same cut quickly.</desc>
<category lang="en">Paid Programming</category>
<episode-num system="dd_progid">SH01102722.0000</episode-num>
</programme>

So after this entry, I get no EPG information in the TV Guide. Is there a way to tell (i.e. command line argument) PVRX2 to ignore rogue tags from the xml file while parsing?

Thanx
