The Hauppauge remote seems to have issues thinking I pressed the down button when I pushed the up button, and is otherwise sometimes just slow to respond. I am getting an MCE remote given to me. Which one is better? Which one do you guys use?

I have one of the HVR1600 cards that allows clear QAM tuning. When I set up GBPVR, I noticed that there are 2 options on the remote config, 45 buttons and 34 buttons. My remote has 43 buttons, so I figure I should pick the 45 button option...is that right? What exactly is this doing to my irremote.ini file?

I know, if I see a problem with the wiki, I should probably submit some updates (which I have never done, so I am hesitant), BUT did anybody else feel that this documentation is kind of...inaccurate? Really, I'm not trying to be critical, just curious when the last set of updates was applied to the wiki and if that is what everyone turns to for help with their initial setup (I tried on my own first then tried the wiki's documentation, then turned to the forum when I still couldn't get it to work).

This may not be the appropriate place for this, I just wanted to say a public "Thank You!" (I also sent a PayPal donation to Graeme.)

I bought the Wireless MediaMVP (1016), although I'm using it wired for best performance. I installed the Hauppauge software from CD.

When my DivX movies stuttered and I could get no sound from movies or music, I removed the software, downloaded it from their website and installed that - thinking that it might be more current and would resolve the issues.

It was clearly not an issue with my hardware, which is way beyond their requirements, so I was kind of stumped. I started Googling - I wish that I had done that in the first place! - and found GB-PVR.

I removed the Hauppauge software, installed GB-PVR and within 15 minutes was using the MediaMVP device to watch (and listen to) nearly perfect music and videos on my TV. No stutter whatsoever and only an insignificant difference in video quality from DVD.

Now if I can figure out how to move through the listings a screen at a time, rather than by scrolling down, I'll really be happy!

Very well done, thanks!

I've upgraded from 0.99.12 to 1.0.8, still using gbpvr.exe as the GUI, and now whenever I go into Recordings, it takes several seconds of 100% CPU usage and continuous disk activity before switching into the Recordings screen. Deleting a recording takes a similar length of time, and sometimes gbpvr doesn't recover when the disk activity's stopped, and you have to kill the process.

I'm unable to reproduce the same behaviour with the PVRX2 interface.

(FYI, the only reason I've stuck with the old interface is that, while PVRX2 is pretty, the "mobile" GUI elements, e.g. the items on the main menu, make it a pain to use remotely via a mobile phone... )

Hi,

I'm just trying to get my tv listings plugin ported to v1.0, but now it seems that I'm stuck at getting the programme titles drawn into the grid. What should be the preferred way to draw strings without having a composite image defined explicitly in the skin.xml file?

Thanks,

To watch Live TV (DVB-T) sourced from a PCI Hauppauge HVR 4000 card (or similar) in one XP Pro PC (Or Vista) across my wireless N network.

Or is there something out there already?

After that little job it would be really cool to have a media server with a more than one card, maybe even duel tuners so that more than one channel can be viewed across a network (Bandwidth permitting!)

Every time I click on timeshift this is the error message I get, and GBPVR then freezes. A search of this forum didn't turn up anything but I Googled and discovered that this message is generated by .net Framework. Is there anything I can do to remove whatever is causing this problem?

Resume/Restart is not responding with keyboard or MCE Remote with AVI files. It will respond to the mouse. Resume/Restart responds with MPEG files. What do I need to do?

what i need to know is there a usb satellite card that is compatible with gbpvr
I want to build a mobile setup

It appears from my research that in order to map your remotes buttons to do different things, you have to dive into some confusing ini files. I would like to see it be able to be much easier in a GUI interface.

Specifically, perhaps you choose your remote, you get an oversized picture of that particular remote, you click on the button you want to edit and are presented with a list of things you can do, such as "change channel up" or "start a program".
