Hi !
When I start Live TV, I get this bubble "Recording has started". When I stop Live TV, I get "Recording has ended". Bug ?
Using Version: 1.6.2746.21588.
I saw in another post that you recommended trying to run the new interface with the -fse parameter. What exactly does this do? It seemed to help a little with the frame skipping that I am seeing on my system.
If I record a file and play it back in WMP, it plays without stuttering. I assume this is either due to a problem with the decoders, or possibly that WMP is using overlay mode.
Do you know if WMP uses overlay mode? If I change the GBPVR settings to use all 3 "System Defaults", shouldn't this use the same decoders as WMP? How can I tell which decodes that WMP is using so I can set it the same in GBPVR?
I have a 1.6 ghz core due laptop with intel 950 integrated graphics (Toshiba m115). I have been using gbpvr on this machine without problems, though it did require me to use overlay, and the only video decoder (fairly long list of ones that I have tried) that worked well was the Intervideo Video Decoder 4.0.11.30. I had tried many different decoders to try and get it to work with vmr9, vrm9 custom, vmr9 fullscreen exclusive, but to no avail always had choppy video, so I assumed my intergrated video was the problem (high cpu usage as well). With the release of pvrx2, i have been trying to get it to work again with "freely" available decoders. I have had best performance running from command prompt pvrx2.exe -fse and using Cyberlink Video/SP decoder version 6.0.0.3431. Unfortunatly, the output is close but has small jaggies along edges during movement and appears to be at a noticable (slow) framerate. It seems as if I am close. Any one with any ideas? I was wondering if I should attempt the nvida purevideo decoders?...I am not thrilled with the idea since I don't want to shell out for them once their trial period is over. Any one have luck with a similar laptop setup?
I finally got my MediaMVP after 5 months! But now I am very disappointed. I installed the original Hauppauge software and switched on the MVP. It booted successfully and the GUI appeared. On the FIRST key press on the remote the server application crashed and the MediaMVP rebooted. This could always be reproduced!
I didn't really care because I knew I would use GBPVR as the server. But I tried several combinations of GBPVR versions and dongle.bin or mvpmc. I applied all possible network tweaks. All configurations made the MediaMVP reboot at unpredictable moments. It happens while listening to mp3 music or watching a recorded show or browsing through the menus.
Is there anybody who has a Rev H4 model working with GBPVR? Is it possible that just my device is broken and should be returned?
(This is for the HDTV part of the system, I think I'm going to get a pvr 150 or 250 for the analog)
The card from geeks doesnt have hardware encoding (I think) but I want to know if hd signals need encoding, since I believe someone else said they dont.
thanks
Do I need any special video card for output to a TV? There is a discontinued card (ATI 3D Rage LT Pro 8MB PCI Video Card with TV Out) that I thought I would use. It does not have DVI or S-Video, but neither does the TV I intend to use in this first PVR interation. I could spend a little more and get these output options, plus DirectX etc and more memory, but do I really need it?
Like the interface very much, load time much shorter... I do notice a file called wmppia.dll is writtin to the root of my pvr HD. Inferred from date created (12-19-03)it is an old file from somewhere, but a search (including system and hidden files) finds none with that name. Deleting it does seem to initiate a reinstall of gbpvr, and the file is back in PVR HD root. Do dll's belong somewhere else?
