For the past year i have been using GBPVR on my little shuttle with a pvr 150 and it has been great (thanks guys)
However with the new fall lineup I figured it would be best if I added another card. So I went out to BB and got myself a WinTV PVR USB2. After installing it I tried recording a show while watching an old recording and it worked like a charm.
LiveTV on the other hand is not good. It got the jitters and sound gets bad when flipping.
I have tried modifying the settings for video and audio (although it was working fine before the new card) and that didnt make it any better.
I have double checked and it looks like the USB2 is now the default for LiveTV, and unfortunately there is no way of changing that. If I run WinTV everthing looks/sounds fine.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
PS I'm still on 98.13B as it is a very stable version
I'm having problems with digital jerkiness with both viewing & recording digital stations whether it's a QAM channel or OTA ATSC signals. Analog channels aren't a problem. I've tried different muxes, Cyberlink, Nvidia pure video decoder, Intervideo non-CSS etc. The last two are better than the Cyberlink one. I checked the signal using VLC with the HdHomerun tuners & the picture is perfect on both the LCD monitor & the the Mutsubishi TV. I have plenty of machine, so I'm not sure what to look at next to solve this problem.
Any ideas?

I'm using GB-PVR 1.0.16, and O2Grabber to pull EPG schedules. I live in Denmark.
The problem I have is that when I look at the TV guide for today, it is showing me yesterday's schedule.
I vaguely recall having heard of/experienced a similar problem before, and I believe it may be related to the time of day that the EPG download is performed?
I currently pull the schedules around 4:00 AM and update the GB-PVR EPG around 5:00 AM.
Can anyone enlighten me as to how to get this right?
When I first set up my client PC, it would not run VMR9, just kept saying "your system does not appear to support"
Then randomly it started working with VMR9. Recently the PC has gone back to the old ways, and I can only use overlay.
Is there any reason why my system would not support VMR9?
The client is a 1.6 Ghz Athlon, 256MB ram, Radeon 9250 128MB card, Win XP pro.
I can't understand why it would randomly working, and then stop again. I tried to update the Radeon drivers to the latest, and this did not help - except for breaking my support for Overlay, so had to go back to the old drivers.
Could it have anything to d with only having directx 9.0b installed? When I try to update to 9.0c it goes through and instantly says all files are installed, but the version info does not change.
sorry, call me old fasion, but i or my wife cant stand the new version. we want our old 99.xx interface back (i believe it was Blue default) none of our plugins work anymore (weather and cinema listings) And the whole thing with zap2it was the last straw. how do i do a complete uninstall of gbpvr. i still have a 99.xx version i can reinstall. thanks in advance for your help. pete

Now if I could get the cable company to get out and hook up the Internet at my new home, I could actually switch these from manual recordings to something with a more descriptive title. haha
I am using a Hauppauge remote with my pvr250 card and cannot get it to work with gbpvr. I went into config select it then hit the 34 button option. Then went out and restarted ir.exe with no luck. Any ideas?
i have dual Dell 2407WFP-HC's and I like GBPVR to be on monitor #2.
This is possible in windowed more, however if I uncheck windowed mode, it only pops up on monitor #1 even though the "start on second monitor" is checked.
Even if I uncheck that, it still starts on monitor #1, which no difference.
Ok, this is hard to explain, so pictures tell a 1000 words.
Basically when I do a search and bring up a possible program I would like to record, gbpvr.exe has channel number call sign (84 WXYZ) where PVRX2.exe only has call sign (WXYZ)
gbpvr.exe:
PVRX2.exe:
Normally this is not an issue with most people, but I have dual PVR150's and one is set up to record through a digital box (Motorola 2524), and the other one is simply analog cable. I prefer ther digital when I can, but since it shows both at the same time, I get confused with just the call letters. Which cannel numbers I know that 05 is analog, and 84 is digital even though they have the same program on at the same time.
I tried the edit somewhere I saw for the channel number to be listed, but no luck as it only showed up on the main page.
