EGP Solution

Posted by: Smoker - 2007-09-26, 05:54 PM - Forum: GB-PVR Support (legacy) - Replies (5)

	Greetings Folks I've looked unsuccessfully for a consolidation or summary of EGP solutions so I'm posting. I would like to determine a cheap (no cost) solution for the short term so that I can test my new setup (upgrading to 1.0.16 and going to digital cable. Is there a summary somewhere ?

Schedules Direct

	Per the v1.0.16 survival guide, I downloaded the Schedules Direct patch When attempting to unzip into the GBPVR folder, I am receiving a request for a password in order to replace the existing file. any help greatly appreciated.

Would like the ability to resume playback on pending shows

Posted by: andydrew - 2007-09-26, 03:17 PM - Forum: Wishlist - Replies (5)

Hi,

If I am watching a show that is currently recording (chasing playback) and stop the playback before I watch the entire show, I would like to have the ability to resume where I left off vs having to start over again from the beginning.

This works when stopping and resuming a show that is 'ready' but not one that is still in 'pending'.

Windows Media center and other PVR's (such as Tivo) offer this capability.

Thank.

Recording does not work _on some channels_

Posted by: Snowbird - 2007-09-26, 02:56 PM - Forum: GB-PVR Support (legacy) - No Replies

Hi,

I'm using GB-PVR as a VCR which seems to work pretty well in most cases. Unfortunately I experience a strange behaviour when trying to record certain tv channels:
In that case only one or two short video files, usually (but not always) each with a size of 6 kb, are written. This is reproducible.

For most of the channels recordings works great without problems. The channels which cause problems don't look special in any way when being watched directly with GB-PVR.

After experiencing this problem with version 1.0.16 I downgraded to 1.0.8 with the following result: The channels which worked with .16 work with .8 as well, the channels which caused trouble here are causing trouble there.
In .8 not one or two small files are written but on larger file instead. But as I saw in the task manager, only a few bytes are written to that file before the GBPVRRecordingService stops writing.

For version 1.0.16 I've attached all the logs in a zip file and added another file with excerpts from the logs at the time an unsuccessful recording took place.

GB-PVR is running under WinXP on an quite old computer with 450 MHz CPU, I use a Yakumo QuickStick (acting as a Freecom stick) as DVB-T receiver.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Norbert

	Anyone got one? if so how are you using it and how is it set? Are you sending tivo commands to it or sky remote commands? thanks

Adding new HD hardware *Please Help*

Posted by: jam4555 - 2007-09-26, 01:37 PM - Forum: Hardware - Replies (2)

Hello all,

I want to apologize for the newbie question in advance, but I just want to ensure that I have everything straight in my head. I am running the latest version of pvrx2 on a P4, 3ghz machine with 1gb of memory. I currently am running a Hauppage 150 tuner card. I am wanting to add another hybrid or digital card to my setup. (I would prefer a hybrid that could record both analog and digital at the same time.) I have standard cable service w/HD serv.

My question is this, I would like to get a digital tuner that could receive HD channels and record them without having to get a cable box. I currently have a Pioneer 50" plasma that receives HD channels via a cable card. (This setup does not require a cable box.)

Is there a digital/hybrid card on the market that will allow me to receive HD channels via my cable service provider, not over-the-air, and without having to purchase a cable box?

Thanks in advance.

Threads in Plugins won't terminate when PVRX2/GBPVR exits

Posted by: ralphy - 2007-09-26, 01:13 PM - Forum: Developers - Replies (6)

My plugin starts a thread, but I cannot stop the thread when PVRX2 of GBPVR exits - same problem as here. Unfortunately, I've tried OldDog's solution

Code:
Application.ApplicationExit += new EventHandler(this.OnExit);

without success.

Debug breakpoints in OnExit() confirm that it is not being hit when PVRX2 exits. What am I doing wrong??

Here's the test code I am using (sorry about the formatting - seems to get altered with the cut and paste).

Code:
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Diagnostics;

using System.Threading;
using System.Windows.Forms;

using CommonGBPVRUtilities;
using GBPVR;
using GBPVR.Public;
using GBPVR.Backend.Common;


  
  public class PluginTask: /*IMenuTask , */IEventNotification 
  {

    private Thread t;
    private bool stopRequested  = false;


    public   PluginTask()
    {
        if (PluginHelperFactory.getPluginHelper() == null) return;
        Logger.Info("PluginTask .ctr called by plugin");
        Start();
        Application.ApplicationExit += new EventHandler(this.OnExit);
        return;
    }
    
    ~PluginTask()
    {
    	// this is never reached on PVRX2 exit
    	Logger.Verbose("PluginTask: Destructor");
    	stopRequested = true;
    }
        
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// OnExit - Application exit event handler
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
	private void OnExit(object sender, EventArgs e)
	{
		//// this is never reached on PVRX2 exit either
		Logger.Verbose("PluginTask: Exit event.");
		stopRequested = true;
	//	t.Join();
	}
    
	
	
	
private void Start()
      {
	      if (t != null && t.IsAlive) //Already started?
          {
              return;
          }  
      	  Logger.Info("PluginTask plugin starting...");
          try
          {
 	          //Start the background thread
              stopRequested = false;
              t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(Run));
              t.Priority = ThreadPriority.Lowest;
         //     t.IsBackground=true; //http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=4891&highlight=thread+destructor
              t.Name = "PluginTask";

          catch (Exception ex)
          {
              Logger.Info("DoStart: Exception while starting plugin: " + ex.Message);
              if (t != null && t.IsAlive)
              {
                  t.Abort();
              }
              t = null;
          }
      }
	
	     private void Run()
	     {
	     	try
	     	{
	     	 while (!stopRequested)
            {
                Logger.Verbose("PluginTask Sleeping...");
                Thread.Sleep(15000);
            }
            
            Logger.Verbose("PluginTask  Stopping Plugin.");

       		 }
             catch (Exception ex)
            {
        	   Logger.Verbose(ex.ToString());
            }
        Logger.Verbose("PluginTask Exiting run loop.");
	  }
	     
   public void Notify(EventTypes eventType, string eventText)
	{    
	     Logger.Verbose("PluginTask EVENTS NOTIFIED: eventType= " + eventType.ToString());
                 Logger.Verbose("PluginTask EVENTS NOTIFIED: eventText= '" + eventText +"'");

PVR-500 Only 1 tuner works

Posted by: BigT - 2007-09-26, 11:44 AM - Forum: GB-PVR Support (legacy) - Replies (5)

I have a PVR-500 and a HVR-1600 in my GBPVR computer. I was never able to get the HVR-1600 working so I am going to replace it with a PVR-150 but now I can only get 1 tuner on the PVR-500 to work. I think I have everything set right but when I set 2 shows to record at the same time I get 1 good recording and 1 recording with the correct name but with 0 bytes. Anybody have any ideas? I have attached the logs.

Thanks,
T
