I've just tried to get an MVP going for the first time and it connected to GBPVR ok and would play mp3s ok. However, it wouldn't play videos, recorded shows or live tv. It did muxchecker and it said that I didn't have a mux installed. I checked the GBPVR config and it said use Cyberlink so I downloaded and installed PowerDVD 7 trial. This had no effect of on the MVP video playback and caused the GBPVR live TV on the main box to flicker continuously. I had to uninstall it (PowerDVD). Even when powerDVD was installed, Muxchecker said that I had no Mux installed.
Can someone point me in the right direction of installing the MUX properly and 'registering' it. Also, is there anything I should do to get the MVP working properly?
I just installed the latest version of GB-PVR and have also just installed a new Sound Blaster Audiogy SE sound card. Drivers for the card are working fine when playing a file through WMP. When I start up GB-PVR and go to play a recorded show, the WAV volume is dropped all the way down to zero.
Now, the Window's "master volume" doesn't move, just the WAV volume bar. If I keep GB-PVR in windowed mode I can raise the WAV volume bar back up and the audio is great.
ONCE I have raised the WAV volume bar up when GB-PVR is running, if I open another video file, still in GB-PVR, the WAV volume bar is dropped to zero again!
My MSI mobo has integrated 7.1 sound and was doing this problem with GB-PVR and that is why I went out and bought a sound blaster card thinking that would fix it, but no dice.
Any thoughts? Maybe my config settings? Is there a way in Windows to "lock" all your volume settings?
Using Windows to uninstall has left some files in the program files directory after it was done. I deleted them before reinstalling.
When I reinstalled, some options such as the password for the web interface was still set. What other than the gbpvr directory need to be deleted to get a fresh start on installing.
I have released the 1.0 version of SchedulesDirect Utilities. This utility was cloned from the ZapTools utility that provided extended EPG data to EWA users.
I will be putting up a new release of EWA within a few days that will allow this new interface to work with EWA providing the same extended data that was available in the past.
You can download it from the wiki page or from here directly.
Source code is also available on the wiki at the bottom of the page or from here directly.

2 - Sky via STB plugged onto the same card Composite In
But to do that I must configure two capture sources, and this way I have lots of conflicts between then. Sometimes I´m already recording something from Composite In and start to watch another show via the Antenna Tuner, and things crash my previous recording.
This way, I thing I would be great to have a way to tell GBPVR that the two Capture Sources can´t be used at the same time.
Any word on when we can expect a version of TV Listings for PVRX2? That's the only thing missing from PVRX2 that I loved using from the original GBPVR.
I'm trying to run a video in gbpvr and the video is being resized automatically. It's in the avi format. When I run it in VLC outside of gbpvr it runs in widescreen format with bars on top and bottom, clarity is great. When I run the video in gbpvr, it's resized to 4:3, the video isn't as clear, and overall just disappointing. What can I do to fix this?
Also, I can't rewind LiveTV, I can pause, go to the beginning of the recording, and then can't fast forward from there. Also the jump forward button does nothing either. The only way I get back is to change channels. What do I need to look at to fix this?
I hope this is not a repeat or useless information, but I wanted to share my experience in setting up GBPVR with my legacy MVP this weekend.
I am an old time GB-PVR user and had left it for a while, but now have moved and desire to use it again. I was excited to see the 1.X level of the application, but have found that to not be a good choice when a MVP is in the mix.
I have found 1.0.16 and 1.0.8 to be borderline unusable when a MVP is the primary tool. I especially want to use the music playing and internet radio functionality, which I understand net radio is missing in 1.0.16 and maybe in 1.0.8.
Here is the process that provided the most joy...
1. Download and install the latest MVP software from Hauppage. I used the latest beta mediamvpsetup_33_25032.exe
2. Go to the services interface (Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Service)and stop, then set to manual the MVPMedia service. Leave the MVPMediaSvc alone.
3. Install GBPVR09912.msi, try ever so hard to resist the newer versions.
4. Place you pls files in the "C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Net Radio" directory. Add a leading number to the beginning of the file name of pls files to enforce sequence. (Get pls file from http://www.shoutcast.com)
5. Edit the config.xml and set the MVPHeight to 420 (this is the height I found to look the best on my TV). BE SURE TO INLY USE NOTEPAD when editing :mad: !
6. Do config gui edits then power cycle the MVP.
Wikipedia.org has lots of missing info about GBPVR, media PC's, and everything related. Anybody want to try and help get more and better info in there?
