There are two episodes of American Idol on ITV2. The information panel at the bottom is showing the same time for both of them (see attached screenshot). The second should be showing 20:15 - 21:15. If I double click the second one, the popup correctly shows the time.
Actually - just done a few tests. If I use the arrow keys to step to the right (onto Supernatural) then step back, the second episode shows the correct time in the information panel. If I then step on to the first, it shows the time of the second. Stepping to the left of the earlier one then to the right again shows the earlier time for both.
This seems to be consistent - it does it with two back to back episodes of Reality Bites on ITV1 tomorrow morning.
I'll try to remember to bump this thread when you're back from your travels sub.
Apologize if has been answered before, but spent 30 min searching forums/web to no avail:
I have movies that are split into several (say 2) files (first half and second half of movie). Can I use moviewiz to have one (viewable) entry in the search screen but play the files back-to-back?
Still not able to make either GBPVR or PVRX2 work smoothly. I tried to install various different MPEG2 codecs to see if it makes any difference. Strangely, not all codecs are recognized by config.exe, among which are Bitcontrol, ffdshow, Elecard, and some others that show up in DECCHECK program. Should I do something special to get them recognized?
Another serious problem is the choppiness building up. No matter what codec/renderer/driver/... I choose, after random minutes the program starts to go choppy. Once it gets choppy, it doesn't go away after channel change or program restart. I have to reboot the computer. The log is attached. (I'm using HVR-1600, but I see the name of other card. Is it OK?)
BTW, I'm using onboard graphic of 690G chipset (stripped down Radeon X1250), 2GHz AMD dual core, 2GB ram. I tried to overclock it up to 2.5GHz, but it didn't help solving the choppiness problem. Any help is appreciated.
I have connected 2 MVP`s via homeplugs, the homeplug is connect to a pc via a router, but the mvp`s won`t connect to the pc to load the dongle, I`ve also tried mvpmc dongle, the MVP`s get to the last 2 bars but no further, I`ve tried turning the firewall off but still no joy.
Anybody got any ideas? anyway of checking whats blocking the network?
I`ve have got them working twice but when I turned them off I couldn`t get them to work again.
My XP SP2/GB-PVR 1.1.5 setup was scheduled to pull a recording last night. Checked this morning, recording is marked as "Available" but there is no corresponding file.
Dug a little further in the RecordingService logs and found this:

I have been running GB-PVR for quite some time but haven't seen this sort of error before. I don't want future recordings to fail, but have no idea what to "fix." Anybody have ideas?
I have a freecom dvb-t usb stick that was originally supplied with wdm drivers and awful s/w.
finally freecom released the bda drivers and so i saw gb pvr as the sw solution.
Unfortunately the tv guide doesnt populate and the epg doesnt seem to work.
I have set the epg to dvb epg broadcast and when i try and 'import' the process freezes on channed 35 (iirc) with 1 second remaining. the pc remains functional but i have to cancel the epg import to continue in any way.
ive read the wiki on epg, is the xmltv import necessary in uk? i also tried this but the dos dialogue returned that the file could not be loaded as site or data unavailable (sorry memory is a tad woolly on the exact message)
After I upgraded to 1.1.5 I do get a black screen after resuming from standby.
I run in VMR9 full screen
Killing pvrx2 (CTRL+ALT+DEL does pop up the task manager window) and restarting pvrx2 solves the problem
The pvrx2 native log shows some errors
