I updated my drivers yesterday on my PVR-500 to add closed captions (this was a big requirement from my wife).

I've got mpg2srt running in post processing and creating the file .srt file. I then went to the Misc tab and enabled the SRT viewer.

When I watch the recording in Media Player Classic (which supports captions), it displays correctly, but when I watch in PVRX2, I get double captions as shown in the screen shot. They aren't always offset like the image. I've also seen them on top of each other too.

I'm new here so this is probably something really simple (aka stupid).

I've got an HVR-1600 and an SB Audigy sound card. I just set up gbpvr and it looks quite promising.

The only problem I'm having is that I get no sound when playing back recordings. When i am watching Live TV, both sound and video work ok. I have the MPV Video Decoder filter installed.

All of my MPEG-2 playback settings are set to System Default but there are other options in the pulldowns.
Video Decoder - System Default, MPV Decoder Filter
Audio Decoder - System Default, MPEG Audio Decoder
Audio Renderer - System Default, SB Audigy Audio, Default Directsound Device, Default Waveout Device, DirectSound: SB Audigy Audio

Hi Sub,

I am having troubles with the EPG update, and it seems that GBPVR is crashing (or exiting, or stopping) right in the middle of the update.

The EPG is missing two or three channels, and the log files are chopped off in the middle of completing something.

I've attached the logs, pls let me know if you need anything else.

I've done a fresh install tonight (not upgrade) to try and get around this issue of missing EPG channels with no luck.

Many thanks,
Dane

Hi,

Just purchased a new MVP. Was hoping I could just disconnect the old one and plug in the new one and that it would happily use the very old GB-PVR v. 0.98.8b and associated dongle that has been working perfectly for over a year now. Unfortunately it gets to the loading GB-PVR application and just hangs.

Can someone just please tell me if the new revision is incompatible with the old dongle.bin and, if so, whether it is actually possible to get a rev 1.0 D3A working alongside a rev 2.06?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Regards,

Steve

I just emptied my database of the zap2it data and got an error message when trying to pull the new data in from schedules direct.
I did the update from the survival guide for the last minute change to schedules direct.

Your EPG Source does not appear to be configured correctly. Please check the EPG source settings and try again. System.Net.WebException.
The remote name could not be resolved:webservices.prod.schedulesdirect.tmsdatadirect.com

sorry for the cross post. I also posted on your annoucement about leaving town.

It would be extremely helpful if there was a way to setup a channel range when setting up a capture source.

For those of us who split tuners between using a cable box and using the basic cable. So I'd be able to set 1 card to channels 1-99, and another from 100-999.

Then, no matter how the channel lineup changes, I don't need to reconfigure the sources at all.

I'm going to be a bit of a globetrotter over the next month, so wont be around as much as normal. I'm here for couple more days and then will out of the country for four of the next five weeks. Two weeks in China/Sydney, followed by a few days back home, followed by two weeks in New York.

I'll be on the forums, but it'll much more sporadically than normal.

This is obviously not great timing with the zap2it termination about to occur, but I've had several people testing the SchedulesDirect service and its gone pretty smoothly, so everything should be ok. I had hoped they would have the service live by now, unfortunately they still a couple of days away.

I have GB-PVR working with a Dreambox 500C

Is it possible to record video from this box in it's native Transport Stream format i.e. with no conversion to mpeg as currently happens?

This would allow the Dreambox to see all the recordings made with GB-PVR as if it was made with the Dreambox

I've downloaded HDTVpump but this seems to only give TS playback capability to GB-PVR.

I don't understand some of the settings available in the DBoxrecorder plugin settings - such as in the Grab Engine tab "use UDP-streaming"

Where can I find the help files for this plugin? Looked at download area http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Plugin/DboxRecorder but no explanation of the options

After updating from 1.0.8 to 1.0.16 I have noticed that the TV Guide on my MVP is different then the TV Guide on the PC.

The guide on the MVP shows the channel number then a space then the channel number above the channel name.

Something like this:

2 2
KXLY

3 3
KHQ

On the PC it only shows the channel number above the channel name.

Is there any way to have the MVP TV Guide look like the PC TV Guide? I have never had this difference before upgrading to 1.0.16.

Other then that, this new version rocks!!

Thanks Sub
