I am using a dedicated HTPC with all my media (movies, music, recordings, downloads) and tv/sat tuner cards. We also have a Wii and Xbox360 (in the kids rooms) which I would like to use as clients for the HTPC.
I am wondering:
Is it possible?
If possible, what software and/or plug-ins?
Anyone currently running Wii or Xbox360 as a client?
I did some searching in the forums but I wasn't sure how current the info I found was nor if it was completely applicable...
I am looking for advice, experiences, and/or any suggestions...
PS: Sorry if I posted to the wrong subforum (I wasn't sure where the topic fit best) :o
Using 1.2.9 ... capturing STB via PVR150 and the volume is significantly louder than any of the digital channels via HVR4000. Have used Hauppauge Tweaker to dial this back, but still have significant difference.
Is there a setting in config.xml to set the default volume when viewing Live TV?
Would be nice to be able to keep watching something while hunting for something better.
Also, PREV button able to switch between a live-tv/PVR program and a recording, so you can fill commercial gaps with a recording if you don't have "credit" yet on the live-tv program.
Not too sure where too start but here goes. It seems that GBPVR adds capture devices without me telling it to. I configure the system to the card (Hauppage 500 MCE, Ive never had success trying to get both turners to work and i did use the util. that tells which tuner is one and two) start PVRx2 or GBPVR and everything is great, watch tv record everything i want. well after I restart the computer it all goes to hell. I start the program but I cant watch tv and recordings dont start or even tell me there was an error. Next i checked the recordng status icon in the taskbar and it says that there are 8 capture devices. I go to the config and it only lists the one. I have to delete the capture source and start again. this happens every time i restart the computer.
System Spec.
Windows Xp Sp2
AMD Athlon Xp 2500 1.83 Ghz

I am having an issue where I I make a change to the menu structure (want to hide FM Radio, Net Radio) in the config.exe, but when I open pvrx2 the menus are all still there. So I went to take a look at the config.xml which is what I understand is the actual configuration file.
If I double-click the file it opens in IE - I scroll down to the menu layout section and the menu items I want hidden still display as being enabled (see below) - in the config.exe all three of the below menus are un-checked.
If I right-click the config.xml (same file I double-clicked on above) and select edit, the menu layout section seems to be aligned with the settings I've chosen in config.exe (see below).
I'm sure I'm missing something simple but vital, but it seems there are two versions of this file (one for viewing and one for editing)? How do I get my changes to actually take effect?
FYI - I have rebooted the computer and the results are the same. This is a brand new installation so it is the latest version of GBPVR (1.2.9).
Apparently, some of the show times have recently changed but my system did not keep up. It seems like I have to wait for 2 weeks for it to show up (or not, that's just what I'm guessing.)
Yahoo listings did change, but not on my TV Listings.
Do I need to force a flush somehow and make it re-read everything in the DB? I'm guessing this is nothing obvious because I've hit every single "reload EPG" button I could get my hands on but nothing seems to change. It's like once it gets imported from Yapi into PVRX2, you can't get it out until nature runs its course, so to speak.
I tried to go to the next day at 2:00 AM and I get this error:
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.
Hi, I've decided to get my Technotrend 1500-S card running op GB-PVR. However, it gives the .NET memory is corrupt error when I try to scan for sats.
I've tried the old 4.4.1018 and the newer 5.0.0.12 BDA based drivers and it seems related to the DisEQC implementation:
