My observations from installing the test version from yesterday.
First run on MVP:
Only "What's new" populated on first run. Same issue when restarting the MVP.
Using "Down"-navigation from What's new resulted in the rest of the directories getting updated in previous version (if it was stuck). Not so this time.
Pressing GO resulted in long update process (20+ minutes)
Less aggressive on CPU usage. In stead of 100% its goes like shown in the attachment.
Memory usage looked good from the start, but then increased again up to normal 7-800MB
Regression: Some of my subdirectories only show a few recordings (e.g. example below). In fact, after approx. 20 minutes the recording list emptied completely.
Similar experience running from PVRX2, only with a more aggressive CPU usage.
A thing that I'm puzzled about. In the box below is an extract from one of the MVP-logs. It shows that it finds all 55 files, only mentions some in the logfile, and only show the bottom four in the MVP UI. :confused:

All in all - previous version worked better
Logs and CPU/mem usage pattern attached. Correction: The forum currently don't allow me to attach it. I'll try again soon.
After a long period of trying to deal with XML plugins i decided to just go the schedule direct route and pay for it.
I installed 1.0.16 over a much older version, 9.x.xx. I get the same problem when I installed over it, as when I reinstalled after uninstalling and deleting hte devnz folder.
I put in my schedule's direct name and password, I have a subscribed linup with all of my channels listed, but when I tell it to update the EPG I get this picture:
I've checked multiple times. My name and password are correct.
Thought I finally had everything ready to go but when I clicked on "Live TV", I got the above message. I'm using the PVR-250. I see all the channels for my cable system but I must have missed something or done something not quite right. I know the card works because I had watched TV with it earlier using a different application. Is any additional software required to enable gbpvr to talk tot he 250? I thought just the regular drivers was all that was needed.
just wanted to let some people from Ottawa know that PC Cyber is offering the Antec fusion for $99 with the purchase of any OCZ ram (even the $40 ram) which makes it a really good deal. You'll have to buy it on a Monday in October.
I just bought an NSK2480 too!! Still pondering though...mayb another HTPC.
Anyway, hope it helps somebody.
Oh yeah, these guys are really nice. They've given me cable adapters and stuff like that for free in the past tha aren't necessarily related to my purchases.
I'm considering converting my CaptiveWorks 3000HD box to GBPVR.. because of all the wonderful things I've heard about it.
However.. I'm wondering if you might know if my PCI DVB cards are supported.
This is the only info I could find on them.
"The card is roughly equivalent to a Digiwave 103g. Those drivers may work. The PCI-ID is not the same and that may cause a problem. We don't use them in Windows here."
This looks really cool. I was wondering if there are instructions some place that tell me how to do some basics. How do I add a source? Can I really record internet streaming radio? How do I do that?
If I get one of these cards can you set it up as an ATSC tuner and then use the analoge input for say a VCR at the same time? In other words, I currently have to plug in extra cables and close down GBPVR and then open the native program that came with my tuner card to record VHS tapes to my hard drive, or from camcorder and such and would like to just do in all within GVPVR so there is no hassel.
