Hi Jeff

I am on 1.1.5 and I just did a clean install on VA because it would not find new shows in my recording directory. I have the latest "test version" off the wiki. I uninstalled the old VA and deleted the VA stuff from config manually and dumped the Jeff directory. Everything installed fine and it found and populated all shows that were in my recording directory. Problem is it will not add any new shows that I record. This happens if it is another episode of a show or a new show altogether. I just tried to update it using F11 and it updates, but does not find the new "Magic Schoolbus" program (which is in the same directory as all the other recordings). I have attached the logs. I am sure I goofed something up, but can't find it for my life.

Thanks for the help.

Would it be possible to have check boxes on the Manage Recordings page to allow you to select all the episodes (i.e., lots of duplicates/reruns, etc.) you want to cancel and then nix them all in one shot? Or has this already been done and I'm an idiot for not finding it elsewhere in the forums? >.>

Can you control the mvpmc through the web interface and tell it to play files? I am still a newbe

I love using the second monitor for displaying my shows -- displaying my shows on my TV helps it to feel like I'm not using a geeky solution for my TimeShifting woes

However, having to resolve conflicts and confirm recordings on my TV does leave me feeling like I'm using a geeky solution

What I have been doing is running the Config, then turning off "Start on second monitor" then turning on "Show in windowed mode", then reversing the process when I'm done cleaning up my settings. However, saving the Config settings has the uncomfortable side-effect of restarting the recording service, which chops any shows that are currently recording, meaning that I can't comfortably fix recording conflicts if a show is recording :confused:

If there was a command-line option for the "second monitor" and "windowed mode" settings, I could create a desktop icon expressly for this sort of task, without the bother of going through the config. I think this would be a good solution, but I'm open to better ones. :p

Thank you, Sub, for a great piece of software that truly has stood the test of time.

I have several films that are split into 2 recordings. Can someone recomend an easy to use and fast joiner?

thnx

I'm just finding my feet with all this so please excuse any stupid questions. With help, I got GBPVR working on my old PC (1G PIII, 768MB, Intel740 Video) using MVP video decoder, MPA audio decoder, VMR7 renderer and Cyberlink 5.0.0.1307 mux.

I know if "it ain't broke don't fix it", but, I kept seeing references to PVRX2 and VMR9, so, when I saw a very cheap Nvidia Riva TNT2 card on Ebay I thought I would try it out to see what this PVRX2 thing was all about.

Using the same settings as above all I now get with the new video card, while watching live TV, is jerky video, stuttering audio, 90+% cpu usage, and eventual system crash. I've tried a few other settings, to no avail, but before I give up and revert to the working combination can anyone suggest a morer methodical testing regime? In any case how does one explicitly start PVRX2? Does it start automatically when VMR9 is selected? If I start it from the start>All programs>GB-PVR>PVRX2 all I get is an empty window :confused:

Also, someone wrote that even though running GBPVR on the host PC, I could use PVRX2 on my MediaMVP? How do you set that up?

I'd like to understand a little more about HD on GBPVR. Mostly my question is about HD-DVD/Blu Ray playback, since I'm in the UK where HD is just Sky or cable. So...

- Can GBPVR playback HD-DVD/Blu-Ray disks today (with some tweaking/plugins)..?
- Will GBPVR+XP be capable of this, or will it need all the new Vista media foundation stuff..? (and if so, will GBPVR be moving to Vista only..?)
- What sort of video card/processing requirements are likely to be needed to support the horsepower/DRM..?
- Any ideas on handling broadcast HD, or will all the nasty content protection mean this is going to be an end to home-build PVR fun..?

It could be a while before I start work building my HD system - I don't think my current PC is going to hack it but I think it could help people if they are planning a new system build now.

Apologies if this is answered elsewhere...

I want to be able to have my freeview card & analog cards share some channels, so when the sat card is in use, it will try to use the STB.

I set up the cards, and they have been working well (but with the shared channels disabled on the STB source)

When I used the same xml file for both, I removed all of the channels on the freeview except for the ones I can actually receive. Unfortunately, this also removed them from the channel lineup totally.

When I left all of the channels in the freeview source (but disabled) everything was fine except when I scheduled a recording, it appeared twice (this may have only happened for recurring)

Is there anyway for me to have the setup I want, without create heaps on conflicts all of the time?

Thanks

1.1.5 does not start playing next song when one finishes.

I have set MusicLibraryAutoQueueFiles>true</MusicLibraryAutoQueueFiles

but this does not work any longer?

I've encountered a few issues lately with recordings showing unusual characteristics when played back. On 2 occasions shows that are 1hr long are showing a length of approx 18 - 30 mins when played back and pressing FFwd to the end of the recording it does have the full 1hr recording. If I watch the show without pressing FFwd it does take an hour to play back so the times are messed up somehow. If I try and play the video files elsewhere they appear to be perfect.

Any suggestions why GB-PVR seems to have an issue?
