I have put the patch dll files from the sticky on and that seems to help alot with the searches.
I cannot download off isohunt, it now returns what seems to be the best results but after selecting the file for download and then looking at the torrent filelist it doesn't appear. I have just tried with TPB and that is downloading the file different source with less seeds however :-(
Does anyone know if / how to configure PVRX2 to delete two (or more) files from the recording menu when the files are different formats of the same show.
Background: I record all my shows in MPEG format and convert each to a AVI (for the playback in the kids room) but I'm not deleted the orginial file.
eg I record Bones I'll get
Bones_Man_In_Well.MPG
Bones_Man_In_Well.AVI
When I select delete within PVRX2, the system deletes '
Bones_Man_In_Well.MPG'. Can I change it to delete all files with this filename eg
Bones_Man_In_Well.*
I'm currently having to manually delete files via the video menu but it's not ideal as I'm having to confirm each file and it a pain.
I've been reading this forum for a while getting GBPVR setup with a new box in my living room. Have got everything working nicely except for the Hauppauge IR Blaster changing the channel on my Sky Digital (New Zealand) set top box.
I have the 45 button Hauppauge remote with the PVR150. I have the channel changer plugin set to .exe channel changer in the GB-PVR config app, and the IR blaster flashes to indicate a code is being sent, but the Sky box does nothing. I've read on these forums that the blaster is weak and needs to be placed very close to the receiver on the STB - I have tried all sorts of positions but nothing seems to work.
Can anyone shed any light? Is there a way to confirm the blaster is sending the correct information? I have a Motorola DTH-335 Sky decoder.
So I just updated my dedicated pvr system to a newer mb/cpu and video card so it could handle HD videos. I also switched to Vista Ultimate so I could use EVR. My tuner cards and cable are all the same
On my old setup, I got about 40-50 working QAM channels plus another 30 or so music channels. I got roughly the same in WinTV
In Vista on my new setup, (same Hauppauge 1600), in WinTV, I only get the music channels, In GBPVR, I get nothing at all. I have not tried the built in Windows media center yet. GBPVR tells me 0 channels detected.
My TV detects 438 digital channels that are not encrypted (so it says, I have not gone through them yet).
I am probably missing something small, but I can't figure it out. I have been looking over it for about a week now and at am a loss.
My new system is as follows:
MB: Asus A8N-SLI Delux
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3500
Mem: 1 Gb
Video: ATI 3650 512mb
Tuner Cards: Hauppauge 1600
Hauppauge PVR-150
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks for any help and Thank you Sub for a great piece of software.
I can't playback m4v or mp4 files (H264 codec). They play fine in Windows Media Player. I have installed the Haali media splitter. When I select the file from the video library the screen goes black for a few seconds and then returns to the library. Graphedit looks ok, too.
I know I could just watch them using media player, but it would help my marriage if I could make it easier.
I am beginning to see a pattern with failed QAM recordings that I think started when I installed 1.3.7. If I have two QAM recordings that are back to back (one starts immediately after the other) and they are on different channels, the second one ends up being recorded on the wrong channel.
For example, last night I had it record Terminator at 8 on FOXHD followed by Heros at 9 on NBCHD. The Heros recording ended being recorded as one of the SD weather channel feeds for the local ABC station. I am pretty confident the NBCHD channel is set OK since it record the NBC nightly news at 7 OK and again tonight at 7. I saw a similar problem over the weekend with different channels.
I have been scanning other posts and I don't see anyone else with this problem, so I guess I am skeptical about it being a GBPVR problem. My cable provider has been moving a few QAM channels lately, but I don't think it is the cause of this problem though. Those problems usually result in a zero length TS file.
I have attached my logs. I can see recordings going off in GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log starting at timestamp 2008-11-10:19:59.
I have also noticed the COMSKIP does seem to run for the second recording automatically either.
Do I need to rescan the QAM channels again with 1.3.7? I don't think I have rescanned the channels since installing 1.3.7.
I have setup gbpvr, it recognizes the hardware and it starts "recording" based on my schedule, but the files never show up. I can see it recording and I dont see anything meaningful jump out at me in the logs, everything seems to be working it even creates the directory for the show I am recording but no file ever shows up.
I am using gbpvr 1.3.7

Please find attached my log files. Hopefully this is something simple.[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
I've noticed that whenever I record a digital channel, it records 1 small file and then the 'regular' file. The small file is ALWAYS 6kb in size. This happens whether it's a scheduled recording or an on the fly recording. Maybe this has been covered before but I don't recall.
As B3V seems to be down for a while I've pointed the dish over to 110 (119 later) and I'm having some issues and hoping someone else has too that has solved it.
I selected "Direct TV 5, Echostar 8,10" as the transmitter and when I do a scan I get a lot (and I mean a lot) of Unknown channels when I know by their SID they are valid channels. Is there a way to change the scan time? Also when doing the EPG scan, I get nothing even though I am scanning TP 12516 (according to lyngsat) with a harvest time of 300 seconds.
I know you're reading this Sub and you're the best......I can't wait to the version where you solve our NA EPG blues!

OK - I'm a little stumped here - am I supposed to GUESS what digital channels map to the call sign/DVR display on my cable DVR??? 300 channels?? Is there any website that CORRECTLY shows digital to DVR channel mappings for areas (I'm in Houston south side Comcast, and I've googled for hours, and NOTHING is even close to accurate - at least as to what channels are showing up in the Tuning Request dropdown!).
