I have 3 tuners (per my sig) that I feel the drivers are not the best. So I'm here asking for input on if there are known stable drivers for these tuners ? Also, are there any known incompatibilities between these tuners/drivers ?
I have a MVP but never used it with GBPVR. I had installed 99.12 on a stand alone pc with onboard graphics (svideo to sdtv).
So my question is this... if I hookup my mvp (crossover cable) to my htpc will I get the same functionality and more imprtantly, the same "feel" as I did with gbpvr and the onboard graphic connect to sdtv ?
I've been off doing the work thang and finally have some time to get back to this. I left off just as 1.0.8 was released.
To start up again I see that 1.0.16 is out so I'll download that but have a couple of questions.
I have some recorded shows, so what is the best way to keep those ? Just install 1.0.16 over 99.12 ? I would prefer to uninstall 99.12 and start fresh if possible.
I've just upgraded to 1.0.16. TV preview in the channel mapping dialog is fine, but I can't see live TV in PVRX2 - I just get the "no signal detected" warning. I've applied the patches from the survival guide but no improvement.
Hi,
I've had the MVP for years and last year I started using gbpvr.
I had it so tweaked I could play just about any video file, divx, xvid, wmv, mpg, etc...
The machine crashed and I'm rebuilding and I cannot find the codecs that I used before to make it possible to play all those video formats.
can someone please remind me? I tried klite and xp codecs but they didn't do the trick.
Just a short question: Is it possible to record the FM Radio of the TV-Card within GB-PVR? Buffering is possible, this is why i ask.
The problem: Within 27 hours comes on a german Radiostation a "AC!DC"-documentation of about 7 hours!!! I really want to record this for a good friend.
Should we all be trying to bring more users to GBPVR?
This occured to me as I was just setting up my sig for the Schedules Direct forum (I proudly put "GBPVR user since 2005" as the top line).
I am really unclear as to subs motivation / purpose for running GBPVR. I believe he has stated that GBPVR will never become a commercial paid product.
So... Are more users good or bad for the program?
DIY PVR's have been in the news / blogs quite a bit since the Zap2It announcement. These stories always include a mention of Myth but very rarely ever mention GBPVR. I am always tempted to make comments mentioning GBPVR (and sometimes do).
The Myth forums are full of frustrated first time builders (I know, I was one of them). Seems like it would be easy to pull in lots of new GBPVR users if we wanted to.
It has to do with the response to keyboard (remote) key-strokes.
For example, say you are in the main menu, and you hit quickly 3 times down-arrow.
It will sometimes move only two items down (depends how fast you hit). But what makes it worse, is that you will hear 3 response clicks, as if it did move 3 times down.
It's like it doesn't have a buffer of key-strokes - if it didn't finish the move (with the "animation"), then the rest of the movements are lost.
When I schedule a recording from MVP it records the show but labels it another name from another channel. For instance if I record ESPN sportscenter at 7pm, it does record it correctly, but it shows it in my recordings as another title and channel like Midwest Country on RFD. This gets to be a problem when I have a lot of things recorded because I have to guess which one it really is. This does not happen when I schedule the recordings from the PC.
Any ideas?
