I was configuring settings in Gamezone and got an error message on closing Config. Afterwards I cannot see any plugins in Config. I receive an error message and the logs read...
Code:
2007-12-30 01:31:41.859 VERBOSE [1] Error loading plugin list: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I'd appreciate a push in the right direction. Thanks.
I've had my setup for a few months now, and it's all working smoothly, but there's one minor thing I've noticed that would be nice to address (if possible). I have my storage drive set to spin down after 1 hour of inactivity. What seems to happen is that once the drive is spun down, if I go to an MVP and try to browse the Recordings (I use XRecord), the MVP will pause for a few seconds then crash to the blue screen. When it reboots, everything is fine. I am guessing that the delay caused by the hard drive coming up ( whcih takes 5-10 seconds) is causing the MVP to timeout. Is there any way I can get gbPVR to compensate for this delay?
I'm using searchwiz2
1. First question may be a sily question, so apologies if it's something obvious I'm not doing. When I search for programs, all results seem to display only up to 31st December 2007. Is this a limitation of the Radio Times listing as I'm in the UK. I'm using the XMLTV GUI grabber and it runs and updates (at least it has done to date) every time I start the computer.
2. Everytime I hit a found film or program item to get more info from the Net, searchwiz bails out. This is happening only since I started using community3 skin.
I have an issue with my HTPC setup. My machine is a dedicated GB-PVR server that also runs a torrent client in the background. Other than that, the machine is not used for anything else. A problem appears when the torrent client is downloading. Randomly, whatever I'm watching (Live TV/DVDs/AVIs...) skips a couple of frames periodically. I don't think it's the CPU since it runs below 50%. Whenever I notice the studdering, the Hard Drive light is illuminated (leading me to believe that the torrent client is writing to the disk, causing the problem.) It that possible? What can I do to rectify it?
FYI, the disk is a Seagate 160GB PATA drive, 16MB cache.
I have a pvr150 and have just installed a hvr1600. Before proceeding with the channel source configuration, I want to be sure I have the hvr1600 installed correctly (the device checker used to determine which tuner is device one and which is device #2 available from the wiki does not see the newly installed card). The computer itself found the new hardware and the related drivers have been installed; however, the pvr program is not recognizing it. Is this because I have only one tuner (the old one-pvr150) hooked up to the cable feed?
Also, I now have 3 hookups at the back of the computer: a tv connector for the pvr150, a tv connector for the hvr1600 and a atsc connector for over the air digital channels. Since I intend to use the digital tuner for QAM, I think I need to connect one cable hookup directly to the hvr1600 and then take the cable from the setbox and connect it to the pvr150 connector. Is this correct?
With respect to the remote controls, do I need to install both ir receivers or will the one remote (they are both identical) control the channels from both tuner cards? The reason I ask is that the remote for the pvr150 has stopped working since I installed the hvr1600. At first I thought it was because I had made the mistake of allowing both tuners to be listed as device 1 but I have since deleted the new capture devices and rebooted and still the remote does not work. I have also reinstalled the latest drivers from the Hauppauge site.
Moviewiz is the 1st plugin I installed after I set up GB-PVR. Great piece of work.
I have a few questions thougH:
1. Why the font inside movie description window very ugly? It is like mono spaced 10 pt courier front.
2. Can get about 1/3 of my the movie descriptions. File names are properly named and some other program can get it. Eg. <15 minutes>, <cars>
I can play .mp4 movies via MovieWiz fine using VLC. However, when VLC launches, I would like it to launch full-screen directly, instead of having to press 'f' to make it full-screen.
I tried the following in the config (in the field for the location of the VLC executable)
(path)\vlc.exe --fullscreen
(path)\vlc.exe -f
"(path)\vlc.exe" --fullscreen
"(path)\vlc.exe" -f
None of these work.
VLC launches fine if there is no additional option. All of MovieWiz otherwise has worked flawlessly.
I think this may just be a function of incorrect syntax when passing the command. Is there any other way to force fullscreen playback when a movie is launched through VLC via MovieWiz?
I'm a first time user of gbpvr. I have hauppage pvr 350. I can't get EPG to work. So I would like to know if it's possible to use gbpvr without epg ? Is it possible to install channels without epg ?
When I run the tuning assistant it finds all the channels.
Hi there, first let me thank you for such an amazing piece of software, none of the alternatives come close to what GB-PVR offers.
However i'm having a problem with MDAPI, let me explain the setup first.
I've got a windows 2k3 server with a technotrend budget 1500 dvb-c card working on UK cable. I'm running MDAPI with fenrir/yanksee. This is running the latest version of GB-PVR as a server.
I've also got a client windows xp pc running the latest version of GB-PVR as a client.
Now when I view the tv guide on the client pc it shows me all of the servers cable tuner channels, I can view all of the FTA channels fine. Just when I try to view an encrypted channel it just sits there doing nothing and a 0byte file is created in the servers capturing directory.
Now if i view the tv guide on the client pc and set a show to record from an encrypted channel on the servers cable tuner it starts recording fine and if i play it once its started recording it plays fine in the GB-PVR client.
When doing either of these the MDAPI icon does not show up in the tray on the server pc or the client machine (i assume it should be running/must be running on the server or the encrypted channel wouldnt record).
When i put the dvb-c card directly in to the client pc and view an encrypted channel they all work fine and the MDAPI tray icon shows up.
Any idea what is causing this?
Thanks for any help/info.
