hip channel changing, changes channel perfectly every time when i use the remote or keyboard, however when changing channel to record, it often fails? not sure where to start looking... happens especially when waking after being on standby regularly. could be the stb i guess, i might swap it out on thursday and check... ive tried zero padding, putting an additional manual zero (which gives a nice pause) at the start of the channel change params... again, works perfectly when changing channel, but doesnt seem to when coming out of standby or doing a recording - blaster flashes but stb doesnt pick it up. I suspect its the stb, but i was wondering if anyone could recommend a way to test easily when returning from standby - or perhaps to add a channel change before the recording channel change when returning from standby (a bandaid, i know... but if it works, it works )
Also, transcoding doesnt seem to be occuring, not sure where to look to see why, logs are attached.
Which is better? Use ffdshow directly as the Video Codec (Listed as something generic like MPEG player in gbpvr config) or use some other Video Codec (Intervideo, in my case) and enable the ffdshow post processing? It would seem to me, that eliminating the middle man and using ffdshow directly would be better?
After I change channels in my STB, usualy there's a message like press this to start over, or press that to join this package and so on. The way to get rid of those messages is to press the esc. button on the STB remote.
I have a plasma screen and i'm afraid of image retention at these cases.
After I start a record, is there any way of sending esc. signal to the STB from GB-PVR to eliminate any messages?
I have a bazaar problem, that I am trying to figure out. Whenever I try to watch live tv , whether it be analog or digital (ATSC), the sound fades out after 5 to 9 seconds and stays away. I also just noticed that the video studders a little while the sound is on, but once the sound goes away, the video is smooth (obviously you can tell this more during an HD broadcast). I recorded an HD program last Friday and it recorded flawlessly. It seems to only be live TV.
Could someone suggest how I can figure out if my problem is with gbpvr, my video card (GeForce 6200 LE), my tuner (HVR-1600), or some other problem? Thanks
Been beating my brains out & read all over the Wiki, etc., but can't seem to find a fix for this: MVP comes up fine on my TV, but when I try to go to LiveTV, it either loses contact with the server (& has to re-establish it) or it does nothing at all. This works fine on my PC - just not on the television. I'm using a PVR 250 card, WinXP Home SP2, Celeron 1.7 Gig, 512 Ram, GBPVR version 1.1.15. Logs attached. Hoping this is a simple fix. Thanks!
Hi,
Anyone encounter there is an error message when switching from video mode to live TV. There is an error message on "Reference Object not set to instant of object" appear and unable to goto live TV. The only way is quit GBPVR and reload again and it will be fine.
