I'm still fighting audio sync on these recordings, with the latest GBPVR.
Plain old mpeg-2s from the hauppauge hvr-1600 (analog) play back in perfect sync no matter how long the recording.
HD recordings - clear QAM, 5.1 surround audio... seem to start out ok, but over time drift so the video is WELL ahead [1-2+ seconds] of the audio. No amount of stopping/restarting changes it - it stays exactly out of sync further out.
Tried different muxes (TS, MS, etc) tried differed audio decoders, nada... no difference.
Any suggestions welcome. I am going to check the file itself in a different player (say, VLC) and on different machines (Plex on a mac) to see if the file itself is ok.
Hi, I have set up my HD homerun according to their guide. I have loaded xmltv epg data and mapped it to scanned and found stations. The video preview in the channel mapping program even even works.
But when I go to watch live TV in PVRX2, it says "no tuners are available to watch the requested channel". This seems strange since I was seeing video in the mapping preview window.
Attached is the PVRX2 log.
thanks for any help, I'm exited to get this working.
P.S. what is the best deinterlacing highdef mpeg2 decoder?
Help Please:p
My Hauppauge HVR-2200 (analog) ignores Quality Profile settings set in GBpvr.
The Mpeg encoder filter defaults to VBR 6000avg/6800peak & 384kbs audio for all recordings, regardless of the settings I set inside GBpvr card Quality profiles and recording option.
I would like to set the medium profile 3500/7200 224kbs audio as the default and I can live with not being able to choose quality profiles inside GBpvr, just not at the current default bitrates.
I can set the desired bitrates and record from both analog tuners simultaneously to dump files in Graphedit and verify the recorded bitrate in gspot.
Does Gbpvr snapshot the encoder filter's settings on first (re)install ?
I can set my desired defaults first in graphedit. This was the way I set the default bitrates for way old Ati550 Pro card before starting MCE2005 for the first time, which then snapshot-ed the filter settings and saved them as permament settings. The ati 550 pro ignored quality profile settings too.
Or is there any other way to change the recording bitrate for this card in GBpvr?:confused:
PS I used the following Hauppauge reg file to get Channel scanning running in GBpvr and the TuningAssistant
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\hcw89\InstanceFallback]
"hcwRawEnabled"=dword:00000001
Unfortunately the Hauppauge_tweaker tool does not work with this card.
I finally made the leap from 1.0.16 to 1.2.13 tonight. Nice upgrade, thank you! (I now have to retrain my wife, however.)
After running the program, everything seems to work fine in a default install (no plugins other than comskip, and I manually created a 'skin' directory in the GBPVR folder).
However, NetRadio does not work for me. When I try opening the top 25 streams (or any of the other listed items), I get a message saying 'no favorites have been loaded'.
That is true, but then, I didn't have any in the older GBPVR version, and it worked.
I've read in other support posts that the mp3 file is now being made in C:/temp, but my root drive is H: (I dunno why, its been like that since I built the machine, and I can't seem to convince windows it can call it C, but in your other support post responses, you say the buffer is built in the config file named location. My LiveTV buffer file is supposed to be being built in my I:\ drive, where it used to be built last version.
is it possible to have the Fast Forward button work in steps, hit once and go 15 secs, hit twice and go 30 seconds, hit 3 times and 1 minute, 4= 3 minutes, 5=10minutes etc?
the current system just doesn't work with a conventional remote

How about this TVguide layout, that could present a TV picture or show an image from the TvArt folder. Perhaps channels could be tuned while scrolling down in TVguide. The skin file is ready and waiting for the Image object.
It it just me or do things seem a bit quiet here (picture tumble weed blowing across screen)
Sub might disagree - there still seems to be a few support questions.
I just boarded up the house for hurricane Ike.
I live on the coast between houston and galveston. (Seabrook if you are looking)
my house is 12' above sea level
storm surge is reported at 18'.
house has been here 30 years and has NEVER had water in it.
we will see if that trend continues.
the worst part is that I am leaving tonight, and wont be back until saturday.
that is 3 days of recordings missed. (shutting off power when we leave)
it will probably be more than 3 days because when the last big storm came through here (alicia 1983) power was out for a week after. (cable was out for 3 months)
I get to sit in a hotel in houston for a few days wondering if I will still have a PVR to come home to.
I will have my laptop with me, so if the hotel has internet, I will be using whurlstons netflix plugin to keep me occupied.
There isn't too much in the wiki about ATSC tuners for GBPVR (and it looks a little out of date as well). Is there a better list of supported ATSC tuners that 'just work' with the current release?
Also, does anyone here have a recommendation for an ATSC tuner? I'll be wanting 2 tuners, but I have no special preference that they are or aren't on 1 card (well, 2 on 1 card would be great if there were no other trade-offs, but there almost always are). I was sort-of against USB tuners, thinking they somehow aren't as good as PCI or PCIe tuners, but I haven't seen anyone actually say so.
, but in your other support post responses, you say the buffer is built in the config file named location. My LiveTV buffer file is supposed to be being built in my I:\ drive, where it used to be built last version.
