I have just done a virus scan and PVRUiPublic.dll has been indicated as a suspect file. Is this yours and is there anything I can do to check it further?
OS: Win XP x64 with SP2
App ver: 1.1.5 (although this issue has been present for quite a while)
Extra plugins: None
Card type: ATI Theater 550 Pro
RAM: 4 GB
When the GB-PVR Recording Service starts recording a show in the background, my system RAM decreases and goes down to less than 100 MB free, making my system quite unusable. It stays this way until the point the recording is complete, after which I suddenly and instantaneously recover all the lost RAM, and end up with about 3 GB available. Something thus gobbles up 2.9 GB of RAM! This apparently is indicative of serious memory leaks in the GB-PVR Recording Service application. What can be done about this? Thanks.
At this time I do not have a perf graph, but I suppose I can get one.
Could we get an ICal or the like feed from the webadmin. That way you could plug it into to things like outlook and GoogleCalendar. Of course it can only be readonly.
I have found that while some channels seem to play back just fine (either in live TV or recorded mode), I am having problems with certain channels. For the problem channels, what I see is a picture that has been compressed into the left portion of the screen, leaving the right 1/4 or so of the window black. Using F7 to change the displayed aspect ratio will change the rest of the picture but the right 1/4 portion remains black. The best result I can get is to use letterbox which results in a small window that has the correct aspect ratio, but it only occupies part of the window with lots of black all around it. I see this both with live TV and recordings on those channels.
The other problem is with HD channels. Either the screen is just black, or else I only see a portion of the picture, as though I am viewing it in full resolution instead of it fitting into the GBPVR window.
I tried using different video decoders, and that does seem to make some difference. Here is what I got with the available choices on my system:
Cyberlink Video/SP Decoder: Compressed picture on problem channels, only a portion of HD picture shown in window
InterVideo Non-CSS Decoder: Pictures are not compressed but playback freezes periodically and quality is poor; no HD picture at all
MainConcept MPEG Video Decoder: no picture on either the problem channels or HD channels (I do get picture on other SD channels)
HCW MPEG2 Video Decoder: Compressed picture on problem channels, only a portion of HD picture shown
System Default: Coompressed picture on problem channels, only a portion of HD picture shown
The video renderer was set to VMR9 in all cases.
Does anyone have any suggestions for getting better playback? I am running Windows XP Home with an older ATI Rage 128 Ultra video card (AGP).
I've ran into a snag trying to update my EPG using the Schedules Direct EPG source method. I've been using this method previously but after shutting off my PC and restarting it after being gone a week I've found it no longer works. I've checked my login/pw about 15 times and while they work on the schedules direct webpage they aren't working in the "create capture source." Below is the error I'm receiving...
Your EPG source does not appear to be configured correctly. Please check the EPG source Settings and try again.
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. ....
Again I've used this method previously and my login/pw work on the schedules direct webpage....as well as using I-xmltv. I'm assuming this is something really simple that I'm overlooking. Suggestions?
1. Does anyone know a way to define rules to delete recorded shows? (using age, quota etc) These days I have to clean up my harddisk once every few days.
2. From within GB-PVR, Is there a way to delete all eposides under a show? For example, I have 20 recordings under NBC News. (manual recording) When I delete them, I have to bring up each recording and delete one by one. Would be nice if I can delete them all together. I can delete all the files on the harddisk at once, but still has to clean up within GB-PVR.
Both times I load the .xml file and I get channels but no shows. I checked the .log files and apparently the shows can't be found in the .xml files.
I have tried on a brand new install of GBPVR 1.1.5 (out of the box - no plugins) and get the same problem.
I am under the assumption that the TV Guide gets loaded to a database file. Can any one tell me where it is?
I have been in contact with the author of djkxml, but we haven't managed to resolve it yet. And I thought as this is happening with another .xml file from another source it might not be specific to djkxml.
Here is what I do in the config program
-Run Config.exe
-Select 'Capture Sources' tab
-Press 'Edit' on the source Name
-On 'EPG Source' put 'XMLTV Plugin' and press Settings and select the .xml file (e.g. TVGuide.xml)
-Then press 'Update EPG'
