Any chance of support for this?
My PVR500 finally packed it in, and i'm looking for someting more cost efficient for a single tuner. (and i'm getting tired of 150's)
Thanks for the help on my Daylight Savings Time issue, a 3rd party patch for windows 2000 fixed me up. gbPVR seems to be working fine now, but for 1 small glitch. When I start the program, a tiny dialog box titled "Fatal Error" shows up with a red X and the word "error". The program starts up fine, and seems to run w/o a hitch, but below is a section from the GBPVR.exe log:
This is a straight install, no plugins (yet). Any ideas? I thought I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling but I'm not sure how to back up the database (no big deal I suppose, only 2 days of shows so far)
Thanks, and thanks for this great program. It's very easy to use.

Hi
I have an extensive collection of archived films, in various flavours and sizes, xvid, divx, xvid with ac3 and so on. I have generally converted these to dvd to watch at best quality possible using TMPEGEnc and various other tools like BeSweet. I need to know the optimum size, bitrate, cq/cbr/vbr, mp2/wav that MediaMVP will display via a wired connection and scart so I can set up TMPEGEnc to convert them for archiving. The manual says for video PAL, 720 x 576 and "up to 8 MBit" (ie 8000 kbps), I assume Audio Mpeg 1 layer 2 44/48khz? 448 kbps Bitrate ? Will it also support PCM audio ? Has anyone already built a template for TMPEGEnc ?
I have a machine that is fast enough to do on-the-fly conversion, but would rather test mpegs for sync issues etc beforehand !

If I install gbpvr on two machines and set one up as the client, could I use the client copy of EWA to access the servers DB?
I've been looking at moving some stuff off my server so that i can start making it hibernate etc, so I'd like to set up EWA on a client machine and access the servers gbpvr.db3 across the network (if the server is up).
When using media-portal, I had my list of videos stored in ant music catalog, which can output in xml/amc format, of which mp could read in with the right plugin.
Is there a similar plugin for gbpvr that can read either of these formats, to save time in having to re-enter everything for gbpvr
hey guys - i was thinking about one of threads from a while ago where someone wanted to know how to do screenshots of the machine without a keyboard / mouse attached - and just thought about a way of doing this remotely - the steps that would be followed are:
on a random computer that have networked you run a exe which prompts for the HTPC Machine Name, Username , and Password that can connect to create a scheduled task
this scheduled task will run in 15 seconds time which will then countdown 10 seconds and take a screen shot then save that info to a file in a temp folder
not sure how much use this would get but thought it might help people out for creating screenshots... if any interest is shown i will take a crack at it....
can't seem to work out when this is happening (ie. what the pc is doing at the time...) - todays failure the pc should was coming out of standby....(or maybe it never went in)
I had setup a recording on channel 11(channel 11 in my area). I checked the recording and it was all black. I then noticed that channel 11 was not listed on the EPG listing in GBPVR config. I redid my line-up on Direct Schedule and checked if channel 11 was there and it was. I updated the EPG but the channel was still not listed, as well as several others. Is this a GBPVR problem or Direct Schedule problem? Is there a way I can check the info downloaded from Direct Schedule to see if it is there or not?
