I created a new page and it shows up in the list of all plugins and the 1.0.16 and 1.0.08 supported list, but I don't see how to get it to show up on the left side under the plugin tab. Any help appreciated.

Ok-

I got an XP machine working well in my house. Now I amtrying to get a v`Vista machine to connect. I stop the service on the XP machine. Installed 1.08 on Vista, downloaded a dongle.bin file and disabled the firewall. Installed the vcredist file `. 2.0 .net already part of OS.

Is seems the process is running and listening on the port but mvp will not connect.

Have a look at the log.

Any ideas?

TIA

First off very cool idea to add this in!

I was messing around last night and when I first installed this I was able to stream recorded shows, stream live shows, set up recording times and look at the log, all through a LAN connection. I tried to get things to stream through a WAN and couldn't get things to work. Long story short I messed around with port settings and eventually part of this working. The weird thing is now I am able to stream recorded shows fine, however when I try and stream live shows I get an error "Stream Now Failed!" when I try set something to record I get "Recording Failed!", when I try and look at the log I get "Could not find a part of the path 'C:\LM\W3SVC\1\Root\gbpvr-2-128360144942812500.log'.". SO.......... at some point yesterday I must have really messed up some sort of configuration. I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions so I can get this all to work.

Info

Running IIS 5.2 - Default Port 8086 - Virtual Directory /gbpvr/
GBPVR Settings - Web Admin Port - 8087
Streaming Port - 7648
All ports are forwarded through my router and firewall.........any ideas?

Resolution at the end of thread...

I'm running 1.0.16. I have a Hauppauge PVR150 running on a P4 2.66Ghz machine with 1G of ram. The picture quality of live AND recordings is not very good. Attached are my log files.
The first image is a screen shot from wintv200 on espn2. The second image is a screen shot from pvrx2. As you can see the image quality is drastically different. The affects live tv from gbpvr and the recordings it makes. I can record using the hauppauge sw and the results are pretty good.

I am using the zap2xml plugin for the tv listings and I suppose that gbpvr gets it's channel listings from there. Could it be that the station frequency is off somewhat?

I'm not really good at image editing so the wintv one is really small while the pvrx2 one is kinda big but the screen shot isn't the issue.

Sub I'm not sure if you want me to report these as you never respond to my "bug report messages" a simple "noted" would at least let users & me know you have seen the message.

I seem to have found another one that I haven't seen reported (I may be wrong as I sometimes miss some messages in the support forum). On my test machine I have been trying to finish my skin ready for distribution & the other day I setup a recurring recording for something I was testing & then forgot about it & it recorded & shows up in recordings & whats new as "Ready" but this computer doesn't even have a capture card in it so shouldn't it have shown up as "Failed"??

I recently bought a NAS to store recorded shows. It is a SimpleTech STI-NAS/250. The folder for recorded shows is on a mapped drive in Windows. I did not have trouble mapping the drive. My computer, a laptop, and the NAS are all in the same workgroup and on the same network connected with a Linksys WRT55GL running hyperwrt_thibor firmware. Transferring, creating, deleting, and reading files on the NAS work just fine within Windows. I'm thinking that my problem is simply a permissions issue.

I did a search through the forums today and I did find a few semi-helpful posts, but nothing seemed to work for me. I tried setting gbpvrrecordingservice to run as a user instead of a system account, but that did not fix the issue. I even tried using the same user on Windows and the NAS (same name and p/w) and that failed also.

The NAS is set to allow user based or password based access. It is currently on password based, which is what it was on when I mapped the drive in Windows. Share authentication is disabled, and enabling it requires that I create a password. I never experimented with this.

GB-PVR records just fine to my local HD. If anyone needs log files, I would be happy to supply them. I did notice in a log file a few days ago that it had reported being unable to create [show name folder] on the mapped drive.

Thanks in advance!!

I am running into some problems getting my EPG to automatically update. I am using Zap2XML and an UpdateEPG.bat file. When I run the batch file manually from a DOs prompt, it updates the XML file correctly. I then have to go in to gbpvr and click Update EPG to actually get the listings updated in the guide. Simply selecting Update EPG or scheduling an update via gbpvr is not updating my guide. Can somebody please give me some ideas as to what may be the problem?

Nothing to do with GBPVR.
Is it possible to display some/all channels on a DVB-T mux simultaneously? Preferably with free software. I can seem to view one with tsreader and VLC, but can't seem to understand enough to get more than one stream running.
I have a feeling some of the software from Germany might do this, but my language skills are non-existant.
No absolute need, more a curiostity for an enquiring mind

p.s. Why does this forum software disable my Firefox spelling checker?

I finally have had to start using ZB2B again & all seemed OK with 1.0.16 but the first show recorded had major timeline issues (I know you have lost the code for ZB2B) but can you remember if the recordings should re-time automatically or do I need to setup something in my postprocess bat to do this??

I KNOW Sub doesn't do radio....

But there are a lot of us out here who do - if Sub doesn't have time to do it then maybe there is someone who could help out with the coding...?

Anyway...
I have played with DVB-T radio and it is almost there.
I manually added a DVB-T radio station to the channels / Source mapping tables. It played fine as 'live tv' (with a black screen obviously!), recorded with ^k & played back through 'recordings' OK. The mpg file also played in windows media player. The file was about 6MB for 5 minutes so 72MB / hour which seems OK. The EPG was even populated for the channel!

So it would seem straightforward to allow radio channels to be found on the scan and used through 'live tv' (I did find an option in config.xml something like 'ignoreradiochannelsonscan' but it didn't have any effect!).

As an extension we could have a DVB-T radio button (or integrate ALL radio feeds under one button?), but possibly better / more flexible would be to treat radio and TV channels as a separate 'groups' within the EPG and 'Live TV' so you would view just radio or just TV channels (or all channels if you wanted to!), An simple extension to this would allow other (user defined?) groups to be setup (eg Kids, Factual, Soaps) to save scrolling thorugh 70-100+ channels to fund the on you want!

At least in the UK a lot of the national radio stations (all the BBC national ones) are available through DVB-T so this might reduce the clamour for FM radio support!

(now I'm going to hit SAVE this time...!)
