I'm using GG-PVR 1.1.5. I have a Hauppauge PVR 150 for my TV Tuner. Running windows XP. Everything seems to work well except one thing. Whenever I view a recording, when I'm done watching if I try to watch another i get no sound and have to close PVRX2 and restart to get the sound to work on next recording I want to watch. Can anyone help me out?
I have an issue - while not strictly with GB-PVR - i thought someone here might have some ideas...
The Hauppauge 45 button remote that came with the NOVA-S-PLUS DVB-S PCI Card doesnt seem to be working - and im looking for items on how to diagnose the problem.
The device manager says there is a IR Decoder installed and running correctly.
The IR32.EXE is installed - and i can see the icon in the system tray indicating its running.
I have done the hauppauge fix from within GB-PVR.
The issue is not only with GB-PVR but also any app (even WIN-TV) - basically the remote is not working (or at least the pc isnt receiving signal).
I have the IR receiver plugged into the IR port as far as it will go - ive tried wiggling it etc (but to no avail).
Ive tried new AAA batteries just in case the ones that came with it were dead.
Failing that - is there anyone in Christchurch NZ that has a similar remote and receiver - so I could see if mine are faulty somehow?
Hi,
Installed moviewiz and enabled in GB-PVR plugins configuration.
However, the moviewiz tab is not showing up on the menu.
(using blue skin - gbpvr version 1.0.16).
I found out that there is something different in the two installations, but I'm not sure what the likely suspects are. I renamed the gbpvr folder on the "bad" machine and copied over the folder from the "good" machine, and the bad machine then started to work. So there's something in the files in the good folder that make it work.
I used WinMerge to compare the two folders and their subdirectories and about 90% of the files were the identical. Here are the different files:
gbpvr.db3 . Binary files are different
lastgraph.grf . Binary files are different
Config.exe-1.log logs Files are different
Config.exe-2.log logs Files are different
Config.exe-3.log logs Files are different
Config.exe-native-1.log logs Files are different
Config.exe-native-2.log logs Files are different
Config.exe-native-3.log logs Files are different
Config.exe-native.log logs Files are different
Config.exe.log logs Files are different
gbpvr.exe-3.log logs Files are different
GBPVR.exe-native-1.log logs Files are different
GBPVR.exe-native-2.log logs Files are different
GBPVR.exe-native-3.log logs Files are different
GBPVR.exe-native.log logs Files are different
GBPVR.exe.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe-1.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe-2.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native-1.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native-2.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native-3.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log logs Files are different
GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log logs Files are different
GBPVRTray.exe-1.log logs Files are different
GBPVRTray.exe-2.log logs Files are different
GBPVRTray.exe-3.log logs Files are different
GBPVRTray.exe.log logs Files are different
config.old . Files are different
lawconvert.bat . Files are different
recording-dump.xml . Files are different
recording-dump.xml.bak . Files are different
These all appear to be either log files, which shouldn't change the operation of the program, or the database itself, which also shouldn't make a difference.
The "good" does have more files in it though. Could any of these make a difference?
Hi,
I am using the latest version GBPVR and several MVP 1000 units. The TV Guide has always been too small to view on a TV or projector screen for our family. So in older versions of GB, I just edited the Skin\Blue\TV Guide\skin.xml file - increasing the size of fonts, increasing grid size, reducing number rows in grid etc. I just made same changes to newest version, but cannot get the changes to affect the Guide I see on my MVPs. My changes DO work on GB running on my PC though. Is there a different .xml config file for TV Guide on the MVP?
After making changes to skin.xml I also ran Config, and clicked on OK - which restarts the Recording service, loads fresh MVP servers etc. But Guide still does not change on MVPs. Even powered off MVP...
Many TIA,
-Mike
I would love to see a setting added to System menu that would allow one to pick from several sizes of the TV Guide. I see that we can pick the number of time slots that display horizontally in the guide. So another setting for "Number Channels/Rows displayed in Guide?" would be cool. It could then alter the font sizes accordingly...
I know the title sounds weired, but it is actually an accurate description of the problem. I'm using pvrx2 on a 150MCE. Generally, everything works fine: recorded TV working good.
But after a couple of days (my machine is on 24x7), recordings don't have any audio any longer. Also, live tv doesn't have sound anymore. When I restart the computer, it fixes the problem, meaning that live tv has sound again and new recordings have sound, too.
I should mention that when sound doesn't work in gbpvr anymore, it still works in other other applications. It seems to be related to either gbpvr, the tv card or a combination of both.
I also don't think that the audio decoder is the problem. I'm using the cyberlink decoder and that works with other applications, while recordings and live tv in gbpvr has the problem.
I'm really struggling to get to the source of the problem. What could cause this strange behaviour? Any pointers?
Is there any way to change the Live TV OSD so that when you press ENTER it just starts playing the show and you don't have to select watch? Basicly like it was in the previous version, it was great.
Along the same lines is it possible to change the config so when you select a show or watch a show from the OSD the OSD goes away?
I like the ability to see multiple time slots, but I liked a lot of the features in the previous version OSD.
I have some DVD's that I converted to divx format and then renamed the extension to .avi so Movie Wiz would pick them up. Everything works fine and the movies play, except that once I am playing the movie, none of the controls work (either with the remote or the keyboard). I can't even hit escape to get back to the main menu. Correct me if I am wrong, but I should have all of the functionality with .avi (pause, rwd, fwd, etc)? Any ideas of what could be happening. I can zip some log files if you let me know what ones you need. Thanks for all of the help in advance.
I have tried a number of xml EPG programs to get listings for my GBPVR. The programs work fine if you have cable, satellite or analog channels. I use GBPVR solely for OTA digital channels. None of the free EPG scrappers seem to be able to grab the local digital channel listings. Has any found a scrapper that does do this?
A few days ago I noticed the EPG starting to fail to update. I've played around with refreshing and rescanning. I've now updated to v1.1.5 but no improvement. I checked the other empty EPG thread, but I wasn't sure how to proceed. Advce please. Logs attached. TIA.
