Any idea why GBPVRrecordingservices.exe service would have 96-98% CPU usage while recording status is "Sleeping"? I have a Hauppauge 250 on a P3 1G, 512MB PC800 memory. Memory utilization for GBPVR is only 33,000K.

My old avermedia card died about a yr ago and I am considering a new perchase , I miss being able to time-shift my favorite shows.

I am looking at the hvr-1600 card. I have extended basic cable from my local Suddenlink distributor, my question is this: when the digital conversion takes place in '09, will this card work? I can't afford to buy a card for analog now and a new one for digital later. Suggestions please.

hey great program

Just wondering if anyone has plans to create a cool CD+G karaoke plugin support so you can view the lyrics and sing in a mic on screen.

this gbpvr is tops!

cheers

Occasionally my video card doesn't fully wake up correctly in time before pvrx2 launches and so I receive a dialogue box saying "VMR custom renderer not supported" for which I have to click the OK button.

Once I do this I can restart pvrx2 fine so there is no problem with the card, it's just a timing issue.

Is there any chance of a config parameter that could change this behaviour so that the dialogue box times out after x seconds, dissappers and just writes an error to the message log (or even never appears but just writes an error to the log).

By doing so, my gbpvr_monitor script will be able to detect that pvrx2 is not running and restart it automatically.

thanks

hi all,

volume osd on vista for latest pvrx2 should work?

aint on mine - not a big deal, but i liked it...

I get my HVR-1600 working with QAM recording. Nice!

But I notice recorded shows use DVR-MS format. Can we record shows directly into wmv or mpg format? Is there any reason we can't?

It would be great if I can watch recorded HD shows directly from Xbox 360 without transcoding.

I bought the Remote Wonder Plus recently to control my media pc that is in another room on my television.

It says the range should be 60ft with RF. However, I cant get more than 10 feet away even with a direct line of site.

Im guessing I must be doing something wrong or there is some stupid config problem that I am overlooking.

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello,

When I try to play DIVX files recorded from GBPVR I get the following error in PVRX2 and GBPVR.

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Buffer overrun detected!

Program: c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\PVRX2.exe

A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated.
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

This happens on two of my three machines. I can run the DIVX files correctly through Media Player and VLC on all three machines. Any ideas?

Thanks

Graham

I installed this version
http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Utili...ed.v69.zip

followed these instructions:
* Download a copy from a link above
* Stop the Recording Service
* Delete all contents and directories in the gbpvr\web folder (except for the bin directory…removing this will cause GBPVR to reinstall the default Web Admin)
* Delete only the AjaxPro2.dll, eWorld.UI.dll, Rss.dll, Rss.pdb and Rss.Net.dll files from the gbpvr\web\bin directory
* If a gbweb.dll file exists in the gbpvr\web\bin directory it should be deleted
* Extract the zip into your gbpvr folder using the option to use directory names. This will load all the files into your gbpvr\web directory and subdirectories.
* Restart the Recording Service
* Hit Refresh in your Web Browser (important to reload cached files that might have changed)
