I have a strange setup. My tuner card is sitting in my home 250 miles away. recording my Tv shows and transcoding to smallish Mpeg4 files.

I want to have here my gbpvr have those recording show up in my recordings section. I already haveworked out the magic that will transport the recording from the generic linux box far away so the mp4 files end up on the gbpvr box 's hard drive in a folder called c:/recordings

is there a way I can make gbpvr see those files that appear once an hour as if they were gbpvr recordings and list them and play them?

I can change the remote recording box to be a gbpvr box, but the files MUST be transcoded to a very small compressed format to make it here over the internet in a timely fashon and not trigger the internet bandwith police alarms.

Can this be done? make gbpvr see recording and fake it out to believe it recorded them so it will display them in the recordings section?

I have GBPVR set up & have one server, one client, two MVP's & have streaming set up so I can watch my shows when away from home.

However, when I turn on the Windows XP firewall, the MVP's can't connect & I've tried two different 3rd party firewalls (ZoneAlarm & Comodo) and even though I click allow (and tell it to remember) for every alert that pops up, it blocks all clients, MVP's & EWA accesss.

I tell ZA & Comodo to trust my entire local network & the MVP's still can't connect...

Do I have to enable the specific ports? If so how do I do this (anyone w/ experience on ZA or Comodo know how to do this?)

Not sure if this has been pointed out before, but When I check when my tuners are recording the bottom tuner gets cut of, see screen shot

Just wondering if the size can be increased in the next release

Thanks

Hello,

I recently upgraded my system (I am running XP pro on a 2.4ghz Sony Vaio) so I updated to 1016 at the same time. I am running an Avermedia 113 card, which has served me well in the past. Everything seems to be working fine, except the PVR crashes when I try to play recordings I have made AFTER the upgrade. Most old recordings play fine... except my daughter's recordings of Clifford the Big Red Dog, which I am not really all that upset about. However, these recordings seem to play correctly in other players (ie. Windows Media and VLC) Any thoughts on what is going on?

I don't have access to the system right now, so I will not be able to post a log until later.

Thanks!

So I recently bought a second MVP (my first was wired only, this one is wireless, although i'm using it wired).

When I'm watching live TV on the new MVP the video regularly (like every minute or two) stutters. The sound doesn't stutter, and as a result ends up getting ahead of the video (so they become out of sync).

I thought maybe it was an issue with the cables I had running to it, so I switched the two MVPs, and the old one still works perfectly, and the new one stutters in the old place.

Any suggestions as to what's causing this???

I emailed Hauppauge as well, but you guys are always great so I thought I'd try here...

This pops up on me every page, it's huge...
Any chance of a "Kill all reminders"? It doesn't go away even if I unckeck include in Autosearch ...

k.

I copied jpg's named (ex: 2 WBBM) into the dir c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\media\ChannelLogos

I am unable to see the jpg's in the TV Guide, but when I use the Search Guide I can see the jpg's fine.

Anyone have an idea why this is happening?
Thanks so much!!

Hi,
I have problem playback DVD format movie in GBPVR ver 1016. I checked the configuration under the DVD&remote setting, the video decoder only choice is system default. I also check the playback folder setting and choose other video decoder option but still fail to play DVD format movie. Any advise? Thanks.

Last week we scheduled a number of recordings, some of which were overlapping. Notably, we had two recordings on the same channel, directly after each other and another on another channel which overlapped with both. With my crude ascii art skills, it would look something like:

channel 1:......,.............|==hellow-world-show======|..........................
channel 2:......|==foo-series======||==bar-show================|....

We used the default prerecording of 1 minute and postrecording of 5 minutes. When I scheduled the recording I wondered whether GBPVR would signal a conflict on this (because of the pre- and post-recording) and checked, but it though everything was ok.

Now the following happened: the foo-series ran a few minutes late (as usual) and when playing the recording, my wife (it's her series ) went ballistic when the end was missing. Luckily, I remembered the almost-conflict and started the bar-show, so she could see the end and be happy... Try that for a happy end!

Now I was wondering, what would have happened when bar-show would have been on channel 3 (would my WAF have dropped?). I haven't tried though, but it was interesting enough for a discussion anyway (I may still try it).

Shouldn't GBPVR raise a conflict-warning on this, stating that the postrecording cannot be executed?

Hi all,

i got some major issue with this card. I have set up
- Windows Server 2003 +SP2 +.NET2.0
- TerraTec drivers 4.8.0.17
- TerraTec HomeCinema 5.26.01.206

All installs fine and TT Home Cinema starts up, finds the card. Only, it doesn't find any channels.

Then i installed GBPVR 1.0.16, added the capture source (the card was detected correctly by GBPVR), clicked "Map digital channels to EPG channels" and the search window popped up. Then i got the following errormessage:

GB-PVR was unable to start the BDA device you have configured. Check the device is configured properly, and not arleady in use

When i click ok, GBPVR starts searching for channels, but crashes with a .NET exception

System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.

My guess is that there is something wrong concerning BDA.
Does anybody know how i could proceed in pointing and fixing the problem?

I have attached the config.exe logs showing the progress of the GBPVR-scan.

Many thanks in advance and best regards,
