I am thinking about setting up a client PC in the bedroom of the house that I have just moved into.
I was looking at getting a Intel D201GLY motherboard which has only one PCI slot . I was looking as using a ATI Radeon 9250 has anyone got any experience with this graphics card with the new PVRX2 interface?
The other option would be to buy a Nvidia 5200 or 6200 but I would like to try a ATI graphics card as I have not used one for a long time and I have had problems recently with stuttering which seems to plague Nvidia and not ATI.
I am having trouble with using Hauppage remote (45 button) in PVRX2. It seems to work fine on the TV Guide screen, but not on the other screens. On the other screens, any time I try to navigate up/down/left/right using the remote, I get kicked back to the main menu sceen.
My tv is setup as the 2nd monitor, my primary monitor is an lcd on my desk. I sometimes use the PVR machine as a second computer if I need two screens.
With GBPVR.exe, when GBPVR was running on the tv I could double click on GBPVR on the task bar and bring it to the first monitor. I could also right click and get a context menu to shut GBPVR down. This was handy if I wanted to browse the TV guide while talking to my boss on the phone or to occasionaly watch tv from my desk.
None of this works with PVRX2. Right clicking on the PVRX2 button on the task bar gets you nothing. PVRX2 needs to be shut down from within the app or by using Windows task manager.
Is there any quick way to move PVRX2 from one screen to another quickly (without launching the config app)?
Running 1.0.16 GBPVR. MY cpu sits at 100 percent usage is this normal? Have a sempron 3200+ with 512 meg of ram and a diamond7000 series 64 meg pci video card card and Hauppauge 250 tuner cardp. I am repalcing the video card with a Thinkcentre 128MB Ati Radeon X700 hopefully might reduce the strain some. Thanks
I just noticed that my EPG on 30 Sep is screwed up. I'm on 99.12.
If you look at the attached screen shot, CSI appears twice which is incorrect.
I suspect this is related to Daylight Savings now being a week earlier. I already have the correct Microsoft update for DST installed http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=933360.
Does anyone know how I can clean up the EPG and fix up my pending recordings?
I am a huge fan of Antec's NSK2400/Fusion line of cases. They are SUPER quiet and cool extremely well. The link in my sig will prove how much I love these cases.
They have released a new version with a black front panel, front VFD (lcd display) and volume knob. I could care less about the volume knob, but it does make it look more like a piece of home theater equipment than a computer. I saw a review of it the other day on the net and it was well liked for HTPC case. It is a dedicated HTPC case and will only hold a uATX board, but I think for 90% of us uATX is what we run? I know I run uATX, and don't feel like I need anything more.
