Have any Vista users with WinTV PVR's gotten an Windows update notice? I can't find much info on exactly what it does but it does say it's a 'recommended' update. I don't trust MS with updates so I choose to be told when they are available but I've not yet allowed it to be installed yet. I'm just not sure exactly what it's for.
After watching digital channels for 5 to 15 minutes, it WILL crash. Tried a number of different audio/video decoders and different demuxers. Same deal. I'm not sure which log to attach, but will once I find out.
Using HDHomeRun software scans and receives 156 digital and HD stations, when I scan throught GBPVR for "digital mapping" scans only 68 digital stations. In all cases I'm using the same HDTV tuners for scanning...very puzzel by this...can anyone explain why!
Is there a way to convert component to s-video/composite without spending a lot of money?
I am building my next PVR and will be connecting it to my older HDTV with a component cable. I would like to have the PVR also drive my other SDTVs in the house from the same cable. That way I can watch TV from other televisions without another client (My family never watches 2 different programs at once). I thought about splitting the component output and using one side to drive a converter.
I use GB-PVR now for almost 2 years without any problem. Since a few days I have problems with the audio volume during live TV programs and recording DVD's on my PC (thus, no cable issues). The volume of the sound is minimal with the speakers on maximum volume. The audio volume of the music files in GB-PVR are, on the other hand, normal. The volume of the GB-PVR recordings, are normal too, if you use an another player. The config of GB-PVR config is (mostly) default and nothing is changed. Nevertheless, I have tried the several possibilities of the Audio Decoder in config without any result.
I use GB-PVR 1.1.5, XP-SP2, Hauppauge 150MCE (the Hauppauge applications WinTV and WinTV Radio, works very well). K-Lite codec & XP codec packs are installed. Repair GB-PVR 1.1.5 doesn't solve the audio volume problem.
I use GB-PVR now only for recording TV programs which automatically delete the commercials with comskip. Because the audio volume of the recordings are normal with other media players (I use pczapper for displaying on the LCD-TV), the problem isn't a big issue for me, but it's still annoying. I don't know why suddenly the audio volume problem (except for the music files) in GB-PVR is arise.
I have installed & reinstalled GBPVR and Yapi2xml numerous times and no matter what I do I get no TV Guide no Live TV Nothing. I am totally lost. I have recently moved to VIsta and just can't get GBPVR to work as it did in XP.
Hi (probably sub)
I have a Hauppauge HVR-1600 which came with the Hauppauge 45 button remote. I know this remote has native support in GBPVR, but I was thinking it would be useful to map those extra buttons at the bottom (green, red, yellow, blue) to do different things, like aspect ratio for example. It would also be cool if I could get the green power button to load PVRX2 so I don't have to get up when PVRX2 crashes in order to restart it.
I was looking at the forums and the wiki and it seems like using HIP could do these things that I want to do with my remote, so I've been trying to set it up but I can't get it to communicate with the remote. I found the files here http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Hardw...eyMappings
but it isn't clear on how to set things up. Do I disable the hauppauge IR service? Any advice here would be awesome.
Also, if HIP isn't the best choice I'm open to suggestions for alternatives. Anything that works.
Like the topic says i cannot find a way to get either digital radio or any kind of information about the tv guide i am using the newest gb-pvr version...
