The Hauppage PVR 1600 has two inputs and tuners. Does that provide capability to record two shows at the same time as long as they each have cable feeds?
I just started using MovieWiz and I'm currently testing it against a few files. I've got a bunch of transcoded TV episodes, either ripped from DVD or recorded using WatchHDTV + ATI HDTV Wonder. It doesn't seem to be checking thetvdb. Whenever I do a lookup, it seems like it's just getting the details from imdb. Help please?
I know this has been mentioned before, but I can't remember if a solution was suggested or not.
I'm looking for a way that I can control my GBPVR server (in the living room) via my mobile phone screen. I've tried "Bluetooth Remote Control" but it is too laggy to be of much use.
My main objective is to be able to control the music library / net radio without needing to turn the TV set on, useful for parties. This really requires that music filenames are displayed as a list on the phone.
I've gotten through all steps, until I click on the GBPVR link in the html file. My screen immediately goes blank, and I have to unplug and plug it back in.
Any idea what would cause a failure at that point?
I have been used GBPVR for the past 3 years and have found it fantastic. Currently I used PVR350 card and use wired MVP connected to my TV. A couple of times I've tried connecting to the video-out of my graphics card but the picture quality is crap.
So now I'm ready for an upgrade. I'm in NZ and I want a dual tuner Hauppauge card which will allow me to watch and record freeview (DVB-T)
I would also like to do away with the MVP so a graphics card with a fantastic TV output and one which is a must. Can anyone make any good suggestions?
Lastly I need a remote control.
Would appreciate any advice anyone can give. I'm on my way to Hong Kong in a weeks time so I'm hoping to pick up some cheap components
I'm not a programmer so i guess that I don't know what I'm talking about.
But it seems like every programmer that start making plugins for GBVPR
reinvents the wheel over and over again?
What happes when a programmer leaves GBPVR for another MediaCenter?
I guess someone else has to invent the functions again.
Programmers that have "left" GBPVR that I remeber are Reven and Jeff.
Both made great plguins that died...... and good code with them.
One problem is that the programmers distribute their common DLLs with the plugins,
so when a user downloads a plugin, he might get old "Common Libraries".
I download a code browser tool and had a look at the Classes in the DLLs to see
how often the wheel has been reinvented.
I can see that many programmers amd the same functions.
I suggest that you programmers work together and "donate" code into "Common Libaries"
thar are open source code with a "Code Project License"
This would help new programmers to get started and the Common Functions would have lifetime
that goes beyond the programmers presens on the forum. Perhaps we would see more plugins also?
Perhaps Sub and you bright guys could organize something like this and maybe the "CommonLibraries"
could be distributed with GBPVR and get better and better, just like EWA.
Which programmer will take the first step?
Suggestion that Libraries are separeted into functions.
CommonUILibrary.dll - for UI related stuff
CommonMetadataLibrary.dll - for internet and metadata download stuff
CommonInterfaceLibrary.dll - for interfacing hardware stuff
Common Libraries by plugin developers.
