I have setup my zap2it account to show all of the DirecTV channels for Atlanta. Using zap2xml I can pull all of the data. I have looked at the xml file that it generates and I see all 400 or so channels.
The problem is the gbpvr epg doesn't see all of those channels. When I look at the TV guide via the gui I see only channels below 100. No show details.
The config app only shows channels below 100.
I have emptied the epg via the config app.
I have uninstalled / reinstalled gbpvr a couple of times to no avail.
What next?

Thanks,

Hi mvallevand

I've tried to get mvpmcx2 to work with Show Center with no luck, probably because of the complicated set up for the server connection.

Using Swiss Center with Show Center is a doddle as the installation is completely automatic.

From the Swiss Center forum I see that the Simese server now works OK with all Syabas based units including PCH.

Is it possible to use the Simese server with mvpmcx2 so as to get automatic connection for all Syabas based systems?

In your Installation guide I see that you say that any server can be used but there are no instructions for non programmers as to how to achieve this.

Thanks for the good work so far. I use gbpvr with freeview for all my recording and being able to use the interface from the TV would be great.

I bought this DVB-S card for about £25 as a gamble (I am on a tight budget and can't afford to go all Hauppauge!). It's all up and running perfectly- I had to add the entry to the bda.ini and download the latest drivers, however. Even better, it features a pass through to the ATX power button, which means that you can use the remote control to start the PC- I trained the "TV" button on my MCE remote to emulate this, as the supplied Compro remote does not work with GBPVR.

I'm left wondering what the catch is (apart from lack of Diseqc) and why the card is so cheap in comparison to the Hauppauge cards?

Hi Folks

I'm a newb, as you can see, so apologies for any faux pas, etc. I have searched for an answer to this question, but so far I've come up short.

I have been using GBPVR for a few months now - what a great piece of kit. Thanks to everyone involved, especially Jeff. I'm now settin up a dedicated PC for PVR. It's going well. The only problem that has really stumped me so far is ripping DVDs. I have used ImTOO DVD Ripper Platinum 4 in the past. This is pretty good. On the new PC, however, I'd like to use the DVD to MPEG plugin. I've got everything working, but I get file size at around 6GB.

How can I adjust the default file size/quality to allow a smaller file to be created?

Should I be adjusting one of the command lines in the DVD to MPEG Command Lines plugin config dialogue box?

Regards, Rob.

OK, i'm in Auckland New Zealand and am having trouble with the sound.

I've downloaded the MONOGRAM aac codec the 0.0.9 ?? version and registered it, but I still have no sound. I am obviously missing some important step, I just have no idea what it is.

I've also got a simple question around jittery video playback, mainly on TV3 (higher definition than 1 and 2). I'm running on board graphics, is this the most likely reason (before I start trying the things in the sticky).

Thanks in advance.

The PC is dual core 3.2Ghz, 1GB ram. OB sound and video.

Have recently set up a GBPVR system with my 32" Philips LCD. Everything fine hardware-wise until I got round to connecting the IR receiver and using the Hauppauge 45-button remote. Basically, the thing interferes with my TV - the green LED on the set that blinks when its own remote is pressed, does so when any key is pressed on the hauppauge remote, and this can make it difficult for the computer's IR receiver to pick up the signal. Equally annoying, it works both ways - when I use the TV remote to put the set onto standby, it opens the Net Radio App in GBPVR!

Anything I can do about this, or am I stuck? Can't think of a solution of any sort at the moment!

Cheers

I am been searching for some time now for an easy media center program that is free. So far most take hours of tinkering to get the program to work. So far I like the interface of gbpvr but I cannot get the live tv to work. I have the guide set up and it is working well. I have the tv cards set up but when I click on live tv their is no image or sound. I have tried several different decoders and renders to no avail. If any one could help me that would be great. Thank you.

My System
AMD X2 3800+
evga 5500 FX Video card

Thanks :confused:

I´ve just upgrade to 1.2.52 and notice that the dropdown box used to select the language is gone and replaced by the donation button (... does it mean something?

EDIT: Codepage selection is gone to (but I never needed it).

When watching live TV using PVRx2 it's jerky and CPU usage is high

is this a processor issue video card issue or both

I'm looking to get a new motherboard cpu....

the problem is that i currently have a agp video card so i was looking at AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ & Asus M2A-VM Motherboard

it has onboard video... I currently have a 5900FX ultra 256.

Well, I'm starting using VB .net. One of the things that I think I will like is that the code is translatable to C# and back. (I figure going from VB6 to C# would hurt too much)

I'm terrible at starting all over, tonnes of questions and a bit lazy ("man, I already know how to do that, why do I have to learn THAT again!!!!)

Anyway, I'd like to hook into the System.Data.SQLite.dll from the gbpvr folder. (Finally I can use the same stuff as you guys)

BUT

I checked out the creator's web site and can't seem to find docs for hooking into it.

By the way, is that actually called 'binding'.... (I'm so embarrassed. I'm such a hacker)
