Here is a problem I haven't seen before. I've been recording a couple new shows (both on the same channel) for a week or two. I started to watch it and the video looks bad. All of my other recordings have been looking ok. The way I'd describe it is that it appears that each row of video is offset from the next and then they jump back and forth.

So I decided to try and record something else to see if it just that show. I turned on the same channel these other shows were recorded on and it looked ok. I then started recording and also watching at the same time. I've got a Hauppauge PVR500 so I am able to use both tuners. The show looked fine all the way through. When it was over, I looked at the recording and it looked bad. I've also watched the recorded mpg on another nonpvr computer using 3 different media players it looks bad in each. I took the video and cut a small part out and also cut a small part of another show recorded recently from another channel and have uploaded it here. The first part shows the messed up video and the second shows what a good recording looks like.

I've got it set up to record a bunch different shows over the next day on that one channel to see if I can find any that look ok. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Hello, I am using two Plextor 402U tuners. When recording with both simultaneously the audio has static in both recordings. I have tried everything and cant get rid of the static. I realize that unfortunately the developers here for some bizarre reason have decided to discontinue support for the Plextors.
One unit works great with GBPVR so is there any chance of correcting this problem in future releases?

In GBPVR, I can scan and find stations in the FM-radio, but there is no sound from any channel. Sound in LIVE-TV, recording playback, video library, DVD playback and music-library is all fine, what could be the problem?

And where is FM-Radio in PVRX2???

ATI Theater 550 Pro
Gbpvr 1.0.16
XP SP2

BTW: Radio audio is fine with Chris-TV, same channels found

Is there a way I can pause something I have recorded, leave to go watch live tv, and then go back to the recording and automatically resume where I left off?

I guess I am looking for functionality similar to when you hit power on a dvd player, then turn it back on, it usually asks you if you would like to resume where you stopped.

thanks

GBPVR becomes unresponsive when I test my plugin (an LCD external display handler), and I need to ctrl-atl-del to end the GBPVR process to regain control. The end of the logs show:

The video and audio start stuttering and eventually windows wants to end task and send out a report. Logs attached

A friend just gave me an ADS Tech MCE-3000 PCI TV+FM Tuner Card, model MCE-3000-EF

will this work with gvpvr? I didn't see it on the wiki list.

here is a link to the manufacturer's product page if that helps:

I have recently purchased the new at&t "tilt" smartphone, and I'm looking at streaming Live or recorded TV to it. Has anyone tried this with gbpvr, what are the options?

I've seen this work with a slingbox and it's very very good quality....anyone found a way (free, hopefully) to compete with this.

P.S. I know ORB does this, but ORB and gbpvr didn't get along on the same machine last time I tried this. Basically both wanted exclusive right to my tuners, even if they weren't being used by the other program. ex: If I shut down gbpvr, orb would work....but I then had to shut down orb for gbpvr to start working again. I can't have that since I need both running to catch shows, and stream video whenever I want.

I have recently obtained a YUAN Ub680 USB2 TV Tuner with hardware MPEG encoding. Its apparently validated to work with MCE2005 but I would like to try and get it working with GBPBR.

The device has the CONEXANT CX23416 chipset which is apparently the same as that used in the PVR250. So would any of the currently available pin configurations defined in direct.ini be suitable for this UB680 device, or am I looking at using Graphedit to determine the configuration and adding a new entry to direct.ini?

The device is reasonably inexpensive so it might be worthwhile getting it to work and submitting the pin definitions back into the community.

Sub, would you be willing to give me some guidance in getting this to work - especially in using graphedit?

Cheers Mike

Hello,

I ran through the quick start. I added a capture source with BDA Recording Plugin with my Hauppage HVR-1600 ATSC Analog source. I set the EPG source to an XMLTV file I generated with the Yahoo! api 2 xml utility. I clicked "Update EPG" and it shows all my channels with enabled being checked.

However, GBPVR still says that I need to add a recording source and click Update EPG. I already did this several times with no errors or anything. What am I missing?

Thanks.
