I have just set up a media pc using gbpvr which works great. I have one problem. I have set S3 power saving and hibernate on pressing the power button, and am using the Vmr9 renderer. When I hibernate the machine with gbpvr (pvrx2, latest version) it's fine. When I come out of hibernation, the screen is just black. It's the pvrx2 window, as if I get task manager up and kill it, it goes to the desk top. It looks like the renderer is not refreshing the screen. I'm using onboard graphics with 256MB memory allocated to it, and running in 640x480 mode.
Any ideas what could be wrong? I've not put a tuner card in yet (planning to get a nova-t 500) as this hibernate issue will stop it being so useful.
Hey,
I have a Conexant Falcon II (PAL) and Windows XP, installed the latest GBPVR which includes PVRX2 etc, they look like two different dash interfaces, though I have a problem trying to access divx files, no live TV but the Tuning Wizard picked up some channels. Also the TV Guide section freezes up and I have more than enough RAM.
Can someone tell what to do being a New Zealander as to how to get live TV working via Attenna which I did click the option to select, but still nothing.
Device Manager says the cards in, I know the card works picking up feeds via webcam and the XBox360 via RCA/AV In and the TV Attenna on other applications.
Note MediaPortal wouldn't pickup the card and MCE+WinDVR wouldn't detect the sound.
Hey just joined as I said, was looking to find something to support my new capture card, plus I don't believe in MCE is great, it's made by M$ ffs.
Plus since it's related back to old Aoetearoa I'll definetly use it. As my sig says, I believed the 800k download was amazing, and the attenuation rate mean't the server was close. It was.
I recently purchased a Panasonic Plasma TV that has a VGA input which I want to use with my GB-PVR computer.
When I install the ATI catalyst drivers, the PC input on the TV goes blank, but when I remove the drivers and use the plain old windows VGA driver (screen resolutiun 1024 x 768) I get a perfect image.
However GB-PVR does not run using the windows VGA driver.
Here is the end of the PVRX2.exe-native.log report

Does GB-PVR need ATI drivers?
It is strange that the latest ATI drivers produce a blank screen, I smell a rat, probably a DRM feature. If so does anyone know when this was introduced?
I am going to try some older drivers and see if that helps, in the mean time does anyone have any feedback on this issue?
... to watch. I've been away for quite a while and haven't been following EWA, but I suspect it is the most likely plugin/utility to have what I'd like.
I'd like to select movies to watch, based on IMDB reviews. If I could run a predefined search that would find only movies and then sort them by their IMDB ratings I would be beside myself. Whew... it would be such a HUGE time saver.
Is IMDB still really hard to auto search for an exact match? (For instance, hit on title and one of the names of an actor in the movie to narrow it down.)
Right now, I bring up all movies, then manually look them up in IMDB to see if they are of interest. It takes forever.... and so I don't do it as often as I'd like.
Wondering if anyone has successfully set-up channel changing with the My Sky decoder?
I'm using a PVR150-MCE (remote is the same as number 4 in wiki but with a set of coloured buttons along the bottom and a teletext button). This card has the USB beanbag receiver with 2 IR blasters plugging into the beanbag. Reading the wiki I thought this set-up was internal of GB-PVR.
I have played with HIP and HIPSEND.
Perhaps someone already has a config file for HIP, or can list the settings one should make in GBPVR. I've spent many hours and read lots of wiki and posts trying to resolve it.
How do I work out where I am in a BaseButtonListUiTask?
I want to intercept mouse and keyboard events but I need to act differently depending on whether the user is focused on the buttons or if they're focused on the UiList.
The various virtual mouse and keyboard handlers only give me a Point or PointF or a mouse or key EventArgs neither of which tell me which particular list is focused.
Thought I had it sorted for a minute. After standby or hibernation machine comes back up, but can;'t get the hauppauge remote going. Not even a restart IR does the trick.
I could probably get it working by switching to usb-uirt - but the problem with uirt, is I don't know how to start gbpvr using that, and I have an external command to run powerdvd and so would like to control that with the same remote.
What would i need to do this, or does someone know how i can solve my first problem.
