I am trying to use the MediaMVP to play my networked media files. It does not work using the MVP software, so I have been trying to use the GBPVR software "PVRX2". Every time I start the MVP it tries to run the MediaMVP software which I have uninstalled. Please help I have spent hours on this. The GBPVR software runs on the PC.
The CommunitySkin version 2.x and the Widescreen version 1.x are closely coming to the end of the development and support cycle. These skins are strickly for what is considered the OLD user interface that has its days numbered with gb-pvr. No further development by sub is planned for that interface. Those wishing to stay with the old user interface can enjoy the features they currently have with the older skin and plugin.
Here is where the new CommunitySkin 3.x will take over.
The new CommunitySkin and soon to be re-released SkinPlugin is "breaking away" from the now legacy roots. These two items will now only be intended to be used with the new UI. We have taken this point in time to totally re-write the structure of the skin and plugin. More compatibilities are now incorporated, such as the move from having images stored in _CommonImages folder, to now _CoreImages. Some image names are changed to also be more in-line with blue.
What does this mean with legacy plugins not updated with the new UI???
No need for concern. Your favorite older plugins are still supported. They will be displayed with the older UI "look" and there will be a Community3 skin located in the "\GBPVR\Skin" folder that exists only to support new UI skin.
The re-write of the skin has been a very time consuming adventure, and I am certain there are mistakes, errors, and various bugs that are not identified. I at this time have not gone through and re-installed every plugin ever written and checked for errors. I would appreciate any bug reports or errors (please zip and include logs whenever possible).
Here it is...the pre release of CommunitSkin 3 with updated installer.(link removed due to updates).
When the update to the SkinPlugin is completed (and maybe a little testing done with it), along with reorganization of the images and recreating themes for the new UI, CommunitySkin 3 will be an official release.
I am noobian trying to get my HVR-1600 working with v.1.0.8. I have gone through the config but I cant watch live tv. I keep getting the error "no tuners are available to watch the selected channel." I opened the tuning assistant and it seems to find the channels just fine (the crappy WinTV the HVR comes with works too).
Can any offer any advice on what section of the config is set up incorrectly or provide the settings which have worked with their HVR-1600?
Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer!!
Hi SUB,
I'm trying the new version 1.08 and it's seem to work very well on my configuration, so my best compliments for your hard work.
The only minor problem I have is related to the two error message I receive when I close the application that you can find attached.
I tried 3 different version of mdapi (the original, the 2.01 and 2.05) but all of them return the same error, actually I'm using the original because it's faster the first time I tune a channel and work perfectly with my plugin (wincsc).
Is it a know problem or I can modify somethingh to solve it?
Hi Folks,
Juts installed the new version of GBPVR and it all looks very nice. However, i am unable to view any data in the programm guid. My EPG Source is set to DVB EPG Broadcast, which it was with the earlier version and worked fine. However since installing 1.0.8 Their has been nothing displayed in the TV Guid screen.
I have tried updateing the EPG data from the config utility and that works without any errors, although it does seem to di it rather fast.
I did mean PRE-hibernate in the title !!
How can i run a CMD-file before hibernate? Do you know of any program that will do that, or can i do that in windows ? It would be very cool if the GBPVRWake.exe had a before-hibernate-cmd :o
I am trying to setup a computer to run as a gbpvr client for the first time. Both the server and client pc's are running 1.0.8. The client is a fresh install of Vista, so there isn't any other software installed. Currently I'm setup as a wired network, so that shouldn't be an issue.
I am able to playback recordings just fine when in fileshare mode, but recordings and livetv are choppy in streaming mode. The logs don't show any errors. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I spent a good part of yesterday searching the forums and trying everything I could think of to get this working smoothly.
I had a brief play with ML2 in the hope of getting music visualisations to work.
I cannot use the built in standard music player as this only puts the visualisation window full screen after a timeout which lasts nearly to the end of the track. When the track finishes the visualisation is replaced by a screen saver. Very annoying as the built in music player is all the while taunting the me with a tiny visualisation window in the menu screen.
Anyway. It seems ML2 is really designed for MP3 type files which have been tagged. My collection of wav files is untagged and relies on directory structure.
Is there any way of making ML2 understand Wav files. The ML2 app has a box for file types. On my setup it is greyed out and so I cannot add .wav files (even if the app undertood them).
I just installed GB-PVR v1.0.8 on my system (fresh install).
It seems all went fine.
I only have one small question: I'm unable to choose the subtitle language to display. According to the log (gbpvr.exe.log) a file called "SubtitleLanguages.XML" is missing from the system. Is it possible to obtain this file somewhere? Or is there another way to define the language?
First off, Sub, thank you for a wonderful tool. I've been benefiting from your skill and generosity for the last couple of years (and as a side note, I'm one of those Canadians who is not so patiently waiting for a Zap2it alternative ).
I got a new machine, and installed a clean copy of GBPVR v1.0.8. The recording is working well, as I see the file that got recorded, and am able to view the file using VLC Media Player. However, when I try to access the file through GBPVR, it simply bounces me back to the screen where I made my play selection.
I am hoping that the attached debug-mode log file helps. All I can see in this log is the message "Received event code: 1", but I don't know how to proceed. (Yes, I really did attempt to play the file 10 times in fairly rapid succession - I wanted to make sure I was able to find the correct location in the log file when I was done). I copied the log file before I shut down GBPVR, so my attempts are right at the bottom.
Any help you or any of the other many helpful individuals who patrol these forums would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and the "Minimal OSD during playback" box is unchecked
).
