I just downloaded GBPVR and I can't wait to use it. My only problem is this: I have an ATI All-In-Wonder x800tx video card with capture. Now, I read in these forums that it won't work because it doesn't have a hardware MPEG-2 encoder.
Well...I don't want to record anything. I have Dish Network and two actual DVRs in my apartment. All I want to do is be able to watch TV on my 22" widescreen computer HD monitor instead of my crappy little 13" old school TV/VCR on my dresser. Again, I don't want to record anything with PVR, I just want to use it as an interface for my satellite TV stream.
Sooo...will it work to just view the satellite TV? Gotta know!
Is there any reason why PluginHelperFactory.getPluginHelper().IsPlayListPaused returns false if the music I am playing in Music Library is paused? Or am I interpreting how this method works, or using it incorrectly?
IsPlayingMusic seems to work ok (ie it returns true when playing music, when paused or playing, but not, for example when watching LiveTV).
Can similar methods be added for
IsPlayingTV; IsPlayingDVD; IsPlayingVideo, and similar 'IsPaused' for each of these players? Or are they already available?
I am sure I have seen this posted elsewhere, but it bears repeating:
Last night I deleted a video file from the video library UI, and as it was the only file in the directory, I moved up to the top "directory..." icon and pressed delete. I realised what I had done a couple of seconds later when the MVP crashed out to "Cannot find UI" (or whatever it says) and I remembered the earlier post.
When I checked the GBPVR folder, there were only a handful of files remaining - presumably those that were in use when I pressed the self-destruct.
Good news though is that all meda files appear intact, so it's only a matter of a few hours doing a reinstall. PITA, but not a catastrophe.
Moral of the tale:
a) Don't delete the directory while you are still in it... :/
Hi, I'm using 1.0.16 and PVRX2 with default Blue skin. NextRecording information doesn't show up on the main menu. I would also like to display weather, and music now playing on the main menu. Under the old skinning system, I can see how it's done, however with the new way I can't figure it out. I've tried installing Video Archive plugin, but also didn't have luck using that to display the info. Can someone help? Thanks!
Using the latest GB-PVR
I have my system working with one pvr150 connected to the set tob box through composite and everything is working great.
Just added a second capture card and since I don't have another available STB I want to connect it through the antena and use the card's tuner
Searching the forum regarding how to tune channels through the aerial I read about a tool called tuning assitant, but i can't seem to find it at the config section.
Can someone please show me where it is and how to use it in order to set the system for the new demands
thanks
I have a Hauppauge 1600 which has an analog and digital tuner so I can receive OTA analog and digital signals. I want to list these channels separately in my EPG. Iâm using MceEpg2XmlTv to get guide data.
I know Beyond TVâs EPG can separate this out as can WinTV (Analog numbers start 2 and up while digital channels start numbers 1022 and up), but GBPVR will show the same line up and numbers for both digital and analog channels.
Is there a way to change this, even if it has to be manually?
So I am a newbie and kind of stumped by this. Attached is the graphedit file. When I use this setup and play ATSC in Graphedit it looks fine. It also looks fine when I play it in Windows Media player. However, in GBPVR it is very choppy when I watch live or recorded ATSC. I have it configured to use the same HCW MPEG-2 Video Decoder. I have also tried VMR9, VMR7 and Overlay. Is there something I am missing? Are there additional overlay settings somewhere? Thanks for the help!
