I have a dvb-s card and a multidec compliant softcam setup and working, I can view all fta and encrypted channels in gbpvr. The problem comes when you try to pause or record livetv on an encrypted channel. From what I can tell the recording service attempts to start another instance of the multidec softcam instead of using the the one that is already running. This function works perfectly on fta channels.
1. I have a DVB-T and a PVR-350. With both cards I can receive the same Programs. Since the EPG from the DVB-T card is getting a lot more information I wonder if i can use the Data for the PVR-350 too. At the moment I am using XMLTV.
2. My Internet Connection is via WLAN, so it takes some time before I get Internet Access. I am afraid that is not enough to receive the data, if I use the automatic wakeup. I am using TVXB.
By the way the wakeup for getting EPG, what do I need to do to first download the xmltv with tvxb and then get the EPG ready. I guess I do need any answers to Point 2 if Point 1 works somehow
I'm about to set up my first PVR solution and have a few questions.
Firstly I'm not really sure if I'm gonna use Windows Media Center or some other application, like GBPVR, but GBPVR does seem like a nice product.
My first concern is regarding the hardware. I have some spare parts that I was thinking of using. The CPU is an Athlon XP 2000+, and I was wondering if this is enough? I'm planning on buying a Haupauge WinTV PVR-500 that has onboard MPEG2-encoders.
I'm only gonna use the machine as a recording device, so no viewing or time-shifting.
Secondly, is there a EPG available for Sweden? (There probably is, although I haven't studied the docs all that much).
I have been modifying the MovieWiz skin to go with my Blue-Retro_SHV skin.
I have basically got it finished but have run into trouble with the details (I think from memory you call them movie info) displays, with my larger font sizes they are all out of line & look rather bad.
I noticed if I select blue skin all the headings etc line up perfectly but if I select community3 they have started to go out of line & with my skin they are WAY out of line.
I have two Hauppauge Nova-S Satellite tuners. All my recordings are being recorded by both tuners so I end up with two copies of every show. I have upgraded from 1.0.16 to 1.1.5, and earlier versions before that. I have tried setting up the recordings via MVP and PVRX2. Have also tried deleting cards and reconfiguring them, and still get doubled up recordings. Any ideas appreciated!
When I set up a reoccuring season recording for Record Season - all episodes on this channel it does not show up in pending recordings. This does not happen for all shows (i.e. it works sometimes).
howdy sub. While I was away, vibe and Crime investigation channels started on TelstraClear. What can I do to get the EPG data for these channels via your dvbtoxml utility?
Anyone come up with a plugin that allows choosing a different skin per MVP? The MVPMC dongle allows to control different aspect ration per MVP, but what about skin. The skin you would want to use on a large 16x9 is not the same skin I would want to use on the other 12" 4x3 TV.
