Hi,

I've set my nephews computer up with a Nova T 500 and GBPVR, and installed everything ok, or so I thought.

I was using the 1307 Cyberlink filter on my machine, and it's great for converting to DVD and everything, so I used this on his machine as well, but for some reason Live TV works fine, but any recordings made with that filter do not have any audio on his machine.

When I use another Cyberlink filter, the 813 one, it's all ok, with recordings working fine.

I'd prefer to use the 1307 if I can, but just thought I'd ask on here if anyone has any idea why there could be no audio on the recordings, but Live TV works fine ?

Cheers,

Highlander

A question came up in another thread about a guide for transcoding, I've got a good handle on the auto transcoding in the configuration (I typically transcode everything to Video iPod to watch on the daily commute). But I only actually transfer a small portion of all the video I record to the iPod/iPhone.

Recently a new option appeared in the Record Season sub-screen for Transcoding (can't remember which version, I think the first 1.x.x). How does this option work? Does it put new entries into the transcode queue? When are they processed? Does it delete the original recording? Does it update the database to point to the new recording? Does it just take these settings from the Processing tab for Auto-Conversion?

Ideally I would like to use Auto-Conversion to transcode everything to xvid, remove the mpg and update the database, and use the new feature to transcode select season recordings to iPodVideo in a separate location.

Sorry if this is the wrong thread.

I'm looking to write a RecordingStatus.bat file to update my LCD display.

Part of the code is shown below


set count=1

Rem Check current recordings

for /F "tokens=1 delims=#" %%a in ('gbpvrcli.exe /inprogress /mes "{Title}"') do (

if "%count%" == "4" echo %%a > lcd/fourth.txt
if "%count%" == "3" echo %%a > lcd/third.txt
if "%count%" == "2" echo %%a > lcd/second.txt
if "%count%" == "1" echo %%a > lcd/first.txt

set /a count=count+1

echo %count%

)

if "%count%" == "5" goto five

REM Less than 4 recordings got. Pad missed files



The aim is to get upto four recordings listed into four separate files and then display on the LCD, however I need to handle when there are less than 4 recordings active which requires me to keep a count of how many I have.

Currently count only ever has a value of 1. It never seems to be incremented.

Any ideas from the batch experts out there?

In the release info and a post in the forum it said that the piority is decided by which order the recordings appear in. But that does not seem to be working for me. I have the 2 feocurring recordings - the first recording in the guide as Pimienta going from 8pm to 9pm with 3 minutes of padding and then the next recording as Vida Loca going from 9pm to 10pm.
The problem is that the first recording always stops at 9pm so the 2nd recording can start.

after switching to .ts for the digital shows, my HD enjoyment has gone up considerably.

only thing that I need to figure out is how to delete the .ts files after I watch them.
after watching one of them, I can choose delete, then everything freezes for 2 seconds (just like any other time you choose delete), but when it comes back, the listing is still there. I also cant delete them from video library.

however, I can easily delete them after a reboot.

is something still accessing the file until reboot??
is there a way to force it to quit??

using nvidia purevideo.

Hi,

I have a WinTV PVR150 and Vista is running fine with it. I wanted to try gbpvr because I used it before and wanted to remove commercials and convert to divx etc.

Unfortunately, after the setup and updating the EPG, I can't get any picture or sound when viewing LiveTV or any TV for that matter. I've tried switching to overlay manager and different vm9 etc but no luck.

I'll attached the gbpvr log. Any help is appreciated!
THanks

I tried installing ICL on a new build and am running into some difficulty downloading data.

It looks like much of the data downloads correctly, but:

• The films.xml is missing much of the data, in particular ALL titles and synopsis
  
• The showings.xml looks accurate for each theater input, listing each title and showtime
  
• The log doesn't seem to show any hard errors, but it does indicate empty titles.

This has been an on going battle for me. I am recording OTA HD using an hvr-1600. Playback of the recorded files using either GBPVR or MCE has video and audio sync problems. Even the playing of mpegs recorded using a Hauppauge 250 (I think that is the card) has the sync problems. But if I play the mpegs or dvr-ms files using Media Center, there is no sync problems.

I replaced the quartz.dll with an older version, as per some threads, and I thought that solved the problem. But I guess that it just lessened a sever prior problem.

I have read some posts that indicate that the playback is just handed over to Windows. Well, how can I get Windows to use the same playback mechanism for GBPVR as is used for Media Player?

I monitored my CPU utilization during playback, and we are looking at a utilization of only 25%.

I have installed gbpvr v1.1.5 and all works beautifully except I am unable to play DVDs which play normally using WMP11, NeroShow or SMplayer. Nothing in the forums seems to address this so that I'm guessing that I have failed to setup/configure something basic. LiveTV, Pictures, Music all work well.

System.Xml.XmlException: Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 8, position 32.

On two different installs when I try to run gbpvr config I get the above .Net Framework error message, this occurred on a new install also. I have .Net Framework 3.0 installed.

Trying GBPVR again as I like it's multi-tuner support. Stumped as to why I'm getting these errors as I had GBPVR running on an MCE 2005 install previously on this machine.

Tried a fresh install on an XP Pro install on the same machine & after setup when I try to configure it I get system.xml error message also.

Any ideas?
