Apologies if this is a known issue, I have searched for it and the only similar fault I found was in the MVP section.

Basically, live TV stops every time there is a program transition and I get the menu screen.

Is there any way I can stop this?

I'm using 1.0.16 with a Hauppauge Nova T 500.

I've seen some posts lately where folks were a little dejected about this fine program.

I just want to offer this to those who are getting a little frustrated... it's worth it!

It's a free program, with a great community. Have some patience, and we'll work to help you out as best we can.

Many of the folks here are very clever, and have done some great things, but we don't all have the same setup. (One of the bonuses of this!) It may take some time for your answers to come, but believe me, it's worth it.

When this PC, the client comes up, a recording Status window comes up.


Here's how I have it configured:

I'm now using Qwest IPTV which the Reciever controls the Channels. When i try to record something all i get is static... I hope someone has a setup like this

TV1 is set to channel 6
TV2 is set to channel 7
TV3 (PVR) is set to channel 13..but i want it like it was where it's could pick up the channels on it' own.

I am running the latest gbpvr, compskip version 111, automatic.

I recorded a few shows, and the commercial cuts are way off. In looking into it, I realize that on the Tonight Show last night, the OSD shows commercials during the first half, but none in the second half. The commercial cuts are all wrong. A careful look shows that the commercial cuts are exactly halfway to where they need to be, explaining why the second half of the show has no cuts.

In other words, if there is a commercial from minute 10 to minute 12, it displays (and skips) from minute 5 to minute 6!

So, I think the search is working well, but something is wrong.

I have the MUX set to DVR-MS, Vid decode is MPV, Audio is ffdshow, Audio render Direct Sound Realtek HD Audio, and video render is vmr9 custom -fse (started with a separate shortcut to get -fse)

I have comskip set up in gbpvr. I used the supplied comskip.ini, except changes the live_tv to 1 and the live tv retries to 120. I also deleted all the comskip files in the Tonight Show folder and re-ran comskip manually, same result. Logs of that re-run are attached.

I have seen this on a few shows, particularly Tonight Show, but I suspect it is on all shows. I switched to Cyberlink MUX, and now the commercials are OK in newly recorded shows. So it looks like an issue with DVR-MS format.

I think I got Cyberlink to finally give me proper mux, so I'll probably stay with that, but was happy with dvr-ms (no mux problems, audio always matched video). I can try things further if you like.

OK. As many of you know, I have moved to Australia. Here's a status report...

I have not had my computer up for several weeks. Only recently have I been able to get it fired up, and can get at my code to tweak and add features.

I'm only on Dialup at the moment (can't grab large files for testing)

I haven't got an MVP up and running yet. I haven't been able to play with the difference in PAL or NTSC yet.

There have been several people with ideas, problems, and suggestions posting here. It's great to see the activity, in spite of my move. Cheers for the support and interest.

I'd like those that were waiting for me to get things going again, to post a note here and remind me of what you'd like to see me work on.

I think there are still many people that have not switched over from ZProcess version 1 to 2 because certain features are missing (like queuing). We can start working on that list too.

You might not have to repost your entire issue. Just a reminder, and I can dig up the thread.

Thanks for helping get back up to speed.

I get poster pictures and trailers and there is a list of movies in the log file but no show times. Attached is my log file. It shows in the log file that it doesn't find show times. Have I got the configuration messed up some how?

Thanks,
Raymond

Hi

I never normally like upgrading as you end up with problems, although looks like ive been lucky lately UNTIL the above version.

I was already on .NET2 (that was minor issues), downloaded v1.0.16, also downloaded the MS C++ update do-dad as well.

1. Killed all running GBPVR and stopped service
2. Installed C++ update
3. Install v1.0.16, this failed and rolled back (this is where the problem starts)
4. Install v1.0.16 again, failed and rolled back.
5. Restarted PC (first time since doing any of this).
6. Install v1.0.16, now installed OK.

HOWEVER
Lost capture sources, KEPT the recording DIRs which i found odd and LOST the database with all recorded stuff in.

Heres where i am now, setup capture sources again, cleaned any plugins (Webcams2, Weather, EWA) these all work, still having problems with MVPTRAYICON but working on that now, think its an INI file issue.

The question is this, i NEED the database with all my recordings in, i have the files but need them to show in the READY directory.

I cant find a GBPVR.DB3 file (i have a super good backup system and its never been in there ever), however i do have the GBPVR.MDB and thats about 256Mb in size, but when i copy this over i get MVP crashes in the Recordings menu and the software doesnt work on the PC (get windowed database errors).

So was v0.98.x database compatible with v1.0.16?
Is there a way of pulling all these files in?
There physiclally still on the hard drive i just need them to show in the READY menu with the descriptions and times (girlfriend going to KILL me, this has been super stable since i started with it years ago... its early AM here now and cant go to bed till this works).

Hi
Can anyone point to me to how to instal a second tuner card? I currently have a Hauppauge PVR250 installed and I have bought a PVR150 to use as a second tuner card. I've tried installing it once but it caused a few problems that led to me busting the system so I took out the 150. I think my problem was caused by me not installing the new drivers properly. Do I need to run HCW Clear before I install the driver for the second card? If I do this will that uninstal my first card - and if so will the drivers for both cards then be installed?
Apologies for what seems like a rather basic question!
Any help gratefully received
Cheers

Right now I have two standard def televisions, but I plan on getting an HD set for our rec room - since MediaMVP doesn't support, HD, I plan on building a client (likely using XP).

Any recommendations for specs?

Would I need quad core? or is dual core sufficient? What are you guys using for display cards?

Thanks.
