I've switched over to 1.0.16 and am curious what would be a good replacement for My Music. I have my music in individual folders for artist, album... My music was great because I could play my entire library and shuffle it. I can't seem to do that with the stock music plugin. I'v tried running Music Library and even the beta Music library and it keeps crashing.
What do most of you guys use for music and for being able to shuffle your entire music collection?
Sorry for the confusing story.
My first attempt:
I just upgraded from a 99.XX version of GBPVR to 1.0.16 now I am not able to connect to my MVP server I am also not able to run PVRX2 because the PC is not VMR9 compatible. When I power cycle the MVP it goes through the network verification and then it just sits trying to connect to the MVP server.
Now the rest of the story.
Given the above problems and desire to get down to 1 PC, when this happened (the update to1.0.16 and loss of functionality) I decided it would be a good time to migrate my HTPC from an old junker PC to my new Dell running Vista. So I moved my PVR150 to the new computer and installed GBPVR (1.0.16). I was able to get the new PVRX2 version up and running but again I was not able to get the MVP working.
I have tried a handful of the obvious things like rebooting, I tried installing the Hauppauge MVP software. None of these efforts worked.
I currently have my config set up to launch 1 MediaMVP server using the mvpmc.bin dongle file.
Am I missing something really obvious?
Is there some alteration I need to make in order to get Vista to let the MVP connect to it? Disable the UAC or Windows Firewall?
In the old GBPVR it opened a little window and had a little instance of GBPVR for the MVP server, the new version does not seem to have this. Has this been integrated or am I doing something wrong?
I am sorry if this is a repost but I was not able to find any concise explanation of how to get the MVP working with Vista. I appreciate any help.
I didn't think attaching a log file would help as GBPVR seems to be working fine (and I don't know how to get the log file). If a log file will help a brief explanation of where it is and what I should do to make it useful would be great.
Thanks

When I hit the plus and minus signs to change the channel, sometimes the + goes down and the - goes up. Or sometimes they just go back and forth between two of the same channels.
Digital Everywhere has drivers for the FloppyDTV DVB-C for Microsoft's MCE. This emulates the DVB-C as an DVB-T, making it usable in MCE. This even works with encrypted channels (using an Alphacrypt CAM). I thought MCE doesn't support encrypted channels, so I wonder how this works. And could this also work for GB-PVR?
I was using 1.1.51 and FF/RW is smooth. With MVPMC it works well except is sometimes goes to a black screen when I hit FF or RW. I have it set to actually FF or RW and not short skip (it has a high WAF). After going to the black screen I can play the file again by pressing play. If I was trying to FF or RW it has actually occured, I just wasn't able to see the video moving while it happened. I see "Rewind" or "Fast Forward" on the screen but the rest of the screen is black. The problem occurs in live TV and in recordings.
Logs attached. I saved the logs right after spending 5 minutes trying to FF/RW in a recording and in live TV. My specs are below.
I just got SchedulesDirect working and the lineup is correct. My only problem is that most of the channels don't have numbers before them. I set the header type to 1 and it didn't make any difference. I also loaded the pvrx2.exe (as mentioned in another post) and that didn't help either.
Also, where can I find channel icons?
Ok, one more question. The hauppauge remote doesn't work with pvrx2.exe. I stopped ir.exe and that didn't make a difference. How do I get the remote to work with pvrx2.exe?
Just had a recording flagged as 'failed' that doesn't appear to have failed. It is present on disk, but only visible under the subdirectory name of the recordings, ready menu as failed. (1).
Three recordings set up earlier.
BBC1 'Outtake TV Weakest Link Daytime Special' 1745 to 1815
BBC1 'question of sport' 1815 to 1855
ITV1 'all new you've been framed' 1755 to 1825
The failed recording was the ITV1 1755 to 1825 one although as I say it is present in the right place and name on disk.
They all seem to have been recorded on the nova-t-500

(1) p.s. for my wishlist - recordings that 'fail' - could they be listed under the 'new' recordings bit to help find them??
