I just made the change to 1.2.13 and noticed that my second MVP gave issues: it would only update parts of the screen, leaving the background black. Strangly enough my first MVP worked flawlessly. The second MVP unfortunately was left unusable and even rebooted quite often because of this.
After disabeling the "Use incremental screen updates" setting in the MVP&NMT Tab both MVP's seem to work fine. Just thought I'd mention it...
Ok, so when I open GB-PVR to the TV Guide, my CPU levels are at 0-5%, but when I select to watch a channel, the CPU levels go straight up to 100%! This makes watching the TV program unbearable!
this is not really the place to post this as its not a problem with the plugin, but does anyone know of a tool which can be used to remove certain games. WHat I'd like is to remove all games that are a clone of another game and all games that do not use a joystick. Googling just gives me a load of ways to remove roms from within the games to reduce the size of 'em.
GBVPR tray menu hangs on test PC and will pop-up a minute later wherever the mouse is on the screen. Then I can't select any items on the menu and it causes my other windows to also hang. Everything else with GBPVR and all other programs run fine otherwise. I always have taskmgr running and it never shows the CPU at more than 3% with just this window and system tray menus.
I've currently got things setup with an old AMD Athlon 64 3000+. I notice when watching realtime shows (with timeshifting enabled), my audio starts to go out of sync. This is an issue with both dedicated and mobo audio, and I've got a Geforce 6200 video card, so I figure it's the CPU being bottlenecked.
Do you folks think moving to a Pentium E2200 would be enough? Any other recommendations? Preferally, a lower power solution (maybe with a mobile type CPU).
Or for $20 more, I can get a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+
Thanks
Current setup is
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
1GB DDR
Hauppage WinTV HVR-1600
GeForce 6200 LE
Firstly, thanks for a great plugin. Its sent the WAF through the roof .
I have installed project64 1.6 and have obtained some roms. I have run project64 and set a rom directory, and it lists all the games and I can play them sucessfully. I went into the config and set up the required info for the path to project64.exe which was 'c:\program files\project64 1.6\'. That seemd to be all the configuration I could do. Then when I try to go to N64 in GameZone in GBPVR, I just a message at the bottom that says (something along the lines of, I'm at work and can't check) 'No games available' and nothing in the list.
Have I done something wrong? Do I need to do something extra? will logs help? if so which ones?
On my test machine I have installed a DVB-S tuner and TS streams seem to the way to go.
When I try to watch live TV or recorded .TS shows, the PCH says "buffering" but nothing happens and there seems to be no network activity.
With the native PCH interface, the files are playable.
Looking in the logs, it would appear to my un-educated eye that some options are not being picked up from the MAC-address section. Although the gbpvr menu size/position does change if that section is removed.
In MVP-PVRX2.exe-2.log at 13:00:29 is the following

and at 13:02:35 is

These would appear to conflict with what is in config.xml which I have also included in the zip log file, along with a telnet dump of ifconfig to show the hardware address.
EDIT: SOLVED (but don't know how to mark thread as solved, apologies!)
Maybe this is silly, but there are only a handful of forum posts which mention DVR-MS metadata, and none addressing this issue.
What I'd like to do is be able to take selected recordings from GB-PVR to another computer, yet keep show info associated with that file. This could then be read on another device where the GB-PVR database isn't present.
In the past I've manually kept HTML files with this info next to mpeg-2 recordings. But now that I've switched to Windows and GB-PVR, it seems apparent that unlike the MPEG standard, an advantage of Microsoft's DVR-MS is enabling fairly extensive metadata (or DRM if you are particularly twisted) to be kept within the asf container itself. Thus the recording plus show info can be portable, not reliant on the database.
I've found a tool for editing DVR-MS metadata here, but the only problem is that GB-PVR doesn't seem to populate the fields with things like the show name, description, episode number etc which are in the GB-PVR database (I've only looked at a few files though).
So what I'd like is a tool which would enable me to export a selected recording to a new DVR-MS file, to which extra metadata - including show name, description yadayada as above - from the GB-PVR database pertaining to that show is added. Please note, I'm not dissing the database, just want to make certain recordings more 'portable'
Does that make sense? I'm fairly new here so please correct me if I'm missing the bleeding obvious
using the config as per sig. Now, i have got a pace box to go with my motorola box for sky - however, i cant figure out how to make ir server suite allow two instances of remotes for the two boxes, and subsequently, gbpvr cannot send seperate codes to each box.
Basically i can just blast the motorola box codes, and the pace is in the dark.
Is there something i can add to the channel parameters to say, add a digit at the start of each channel press?
ie, i have the {channel} part, ideally i would like say, button 3 on my pace box to send 13 instead of 3, so i can program 13 into IR server suite for 3 on the pace remote... is this possible? that way i can just put a 1 ahead of all my pace box ir codes.
or will i have to ask the writer of ir server suite for a fix? googling doesnt help me, unfortunately.
Cheers
