I intend to purchase a new hi-def TV soon, either plasma or LCD. Screen size will be around 40".
I have a dedicated HTPC running GB-PVR with a ATI Radeon 9550 (DVI output) which I want to connect to the new TV.
I live in Australia, so I want PAL resolutions at 50Hz.
So my questions are:
What specifications such as screen resolution and input connections do I need to look for when shopping for the TV?
Can anyone recommend a TV (sub $2000AU) to be used for this purpose?
I am considering using the DVI output of my ATI card combined with a DVI to HDMI adapter/cable but I expect there could be video card driver issues or hardware restrictions of the TV that prevent high quality output from PC to TV.
I am also willing to purchase the right video card for the job to get the best result.
Thanks in advance.
I have recently upgraded my computer and reinstalled everything.
I reinstalled GBPVR in probably a way I shouldn't have, I replaced the gbpvr folder then ran the installer I shortly found out there was another new version and then upgraded. I now have two errors I'd like to fix, I believe they have always existed in this install.
I have two recordings, a manual recording that span sevel hours on saturday and sunday night. I have three manual recordings but only the longer one that actually starts before midnight and stops afterwards does not record, it fails for no reason.
Also I get an error when trying to access gbweb, I have reinstalled the web plugin and get the same error.
Also when installed windows I installed the .net 3.5 runtime which was said to include .net 1, 2, and 3.
The computer's name has change since it was installed.
Windows XP sp2
.net 1-3.5 (2 had to be reinstalled separately)
GBPVR 1.15
Hauppauge PVR 350

I've been working with putting my pvr box into Standby. I am able to manually put it in standby both from the menu and from the Windows Start Menu. gbpvr wakes up correctly for the EPG and recordings.
However, I'm having trouble getting it to sleep on its own. With pvrx2.exe running, I set Windows to standby after 5 minutes and it went into standby fine. However, when I change Windows to Standby after 1 hour with pvrx2.exe running, it will not go into Standby. If I exit pvrx2, then it will Standby after 1 hour.
I disabled the Log Flushing feature. Is there anything else that pvrx2 could be doing to keep the system awake?
As a work around, Can I just program my Haupauge remote to start pvrx2 and thus just leave gbpvr not running when not in use?
i'm in over my head here. i'm trying to record pbs in austin, tx and only get 0kb recording on the primary pbs channel, 18.1. sure enough i don't get anything when i try to view live tv. i can view programming on their secondary channel 18.2, but schedulesdirect doesn't link to it as a channel. their webpage doesn't mention 18.1 going down so i don't know why this happened. it was working a couple of weeks ago and i didn't change anything that i'm aware of. i've messed with the settings subsequently to no avail. have missed 3 or 4 programs over the past week or so now, all with 0kb. but like i said it's not coming in. all my other channels come in fine and i have a good antenna, so i'm baffled. but i must admit i haven't been able to figure out a lot of stuff about this program so i guess i'm dumber than i thought i was.
I've recently freshly installed v1.1.5 and it starts in 'TV Guide' I'm sure on the older version I used to use there was a tick box or something to get GBPVR to start in Live TV mode. I have had a poke around and can't find how to make this happen, I'm sure I'm missing something really simple,
im new to gbpvr and i already got everything set up and running, overall great software but i have some problems.
1. while watching live tv there no OSD, i cant pause, play ect...
2. when theres a fast motion (especially in sports shows) there a noticeable distortion, what can i do about it?
im using PVR150MCE, and the renderer is VMR7.. tell me if u need to know anything else
I didn't know GBPVR had got icones, so only when I was looking at the logs for an other problem I found that message and I understood that I never seen icones on PVRX2.
Do you know how can I resolve this?
Not sure if this should be in the skin part of the forum but it seems more like a general problem to me. I can't change the appearance of GBPVR on the PC. Whatever skin I choose on the first tab of the config utility, GBPVR on the PC remains unchanged. The appearance on the TV via MVP changes but the host PC display never changes.
Still gettiing to grips with the MVP set up. I just upgraded to 1.1.5 and "play all" only plays one mp3, the first listed on the screen, then stops. It works fine on th PC. It plays the whole folder. What could be going wrong?
