Is there anybody out there like me who has missed programs because the program that is being used to create the XML file failed to get all the data? I have, therefore I wrote my own program http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Utility/Djkxml
Which I will start a new more effective version shortly.
But that's not why I started this tread. Regardless of what XML program you use, wouldn't it be good to have an external program to check it?
Check out the above link and go to the category "Others"
Also, please if you find either of these programs useful, let me know, even just a reply to this tread so that I know that I'm not wasting my time!!
The UK Radio Times EPG give a star rating for movies and I used to search the guide for ***** to find what they call good films to see what they were. I'm having trouble finding how to get the * from the PC keyboard. The chars above 1 to 0 don't do anything other than ^ and _
I have been using version 1.1.5 very successfully until about 1/2 hour ago when I lost mouse\keyboard and remote control. I had been planning on using the computer for something else and noticed that it was allegedly recording a show that was not scheduled at this time. I shut down the computer and rebooted which was successful in eliminating the message about recording "Life", a show that was not scheduled for this time and not listed as a pending recording for this morning (I had seen the same message yesterday even though the program was last broadcast last Wednesday but I digress).
I have attached all the logs but the log pvrx2.log has a lot of messages that seem to be related to the problem. I tried to fix remote and "restart ir" but to no avail.
Any ideas about what I may have done and how to correct the problem?
I've been using Vista so much I hardly ever go to the XP side of my system but did today to do some updating and realized I had already updated to 1.1.6. However, both the System menu and Config shows 1.1.4. I tried both a reinstall and repair install and it stays the same. Did I miss a post or two with some explanation or am I just a freak? (Don't answer that).

I have just set up gbpvr using my admin account on a multi account machine and am very surprised that gbpvr does not appear on any of the other users program/start menus. Is there an easy way to fix this - so any user can access the TV guide and set recordings etc. The pc will never be used to watch live tv - if that is he issue - and pobably won't be used for watching recordings, just for recording.
I have tried copying the 'C:\Documents and Settings\Dad\Start Menu\Programs\GB-PVR' stuff to the All Users section. Although gbpvr then appears on everyones menus, it will not launch - error message 'Problem with shortcut, parameter is incorrect'.
Logo Cutter is a tool to automatically cut recorded shows by still images that represent show start, so that when you watch it, it starts right from the beginning. I wrote it because I'm lazy to do skipping every time I start watching
Full instructions and download are here.
Any questions or suggestions are welcome.
Not really sure what is going on here, but I am having a problem with channel mismatches.
I have a MCE500 and the current version installed on a fully rebuilt machine.
The issue is this:
When I watch live TV, I can channel change and the channels are correct and in the correct order.
When I record, however, the channels are wrong (NZ, TV2&TV3 are switched).
The other issue is that if I am recording two channels at once, one works and the other fails, even though it says "pending" in the Recording/Pending menu.
TV1 = 2
TV2 = 4
TV3 = 7
C4 = 9
I have the above set up on my MCE500, and have set Tuner 1 to be the tuner with the Radio.
i now have 3 tuners in my PC and apparently the recording order of the shows is 1-2-3 instead of the expected 1-2-1-2. or at least if there's a recording running on 2 but 1 is idle then it will go to 3 instead of 1.
first 2 tuners are HVR-950 (device 1 & 2). third is a twinhan 3250. i intended to have the 950s do all recording and the twinhan just the live tv or potentially help out if there's a third show at the same time. i dont want to completely remove the twinhan however i'd prefer to have it record as a last resort because its signal from the same antenna is not as good as the 950s.
is there any way to determine that? should i set it as device 3? as far as i know the device number is just to tell apart same model tuner on a different port.
Is there anything more that I have to do other than set up the conversion on the processing tab in config? It seems like it's never starting. If I set it to begin ASAP then shouldn't it start running as soon as I close the config?
