I've just installed GB-PVR under vista (ultimate) and the program has odd behavior.. I'll be typing in a menu (arrow keys or letters) and the program menus go back a level. For example, in search guide if I start typing ulti... the prgram will go back to the main menu. It doesn't seem to be related to the key stroke or the speed. Any suggestions. I don't have a remote attached

We are thinking of buying a 50" Plasma TV but the only thing holding us back is that we watch most of our programs timeshifted. Right now we record all of our shows with GBPVR and watch them on the weekend skipping commercials with comskip. We would like to be able to do the same thing with HD but I'm having difficulty finding any hardware that will record in HD.
Does anyone know of a PCI Card that will record HD signals and then play them back? Ideally, the signal would come from a Directv HD box to the PC. I don't know very much about HD, can anyone help?
Hey guys, I know I'm like 2 years late getting in on all this action but i'm here nonetheless, and I'm a noob.
So I've installed everything, gb-pvr is working except that my epg is off by 30 min, which I'll try and troubleshoot myself, but my biggest issue right now is the output file. Is there a comprehensive thread around here for getting good quality smaller file sizes in divx, xvid, 264 or anything. I'm running good ol theater 550.
Hi I just installed gbpvr onto windows xp pro into an Elonex Artisan HTPC set up, everything is now working fine after an initial tvcard problem except that the lcd front display only displays a welcome msg on boot and goodbye on shutdown, these messages are driver default I think.
How if possible can I get the full function of the display to work with GBPVR ?
When I run the International Cinema refresh, it causes GBPVR to crash. I'm using zap2it as the data source. I had read in the forum there were changes to the zap2it data so I'm guessing this is causing the trouble.
I tried to rip a DVD tonight and it never seemed to start so I used to ctrl enter to go to windowed mode and dvd decrypter had a dialog up about region protection being found. I selected the US and hit ok, in about 5 seconds gbpvr crashes, and the DVD ejects. Any ideas?
EDIT: Tried it again and it did the same thing. This time I noticed that the information screen from VA moved very quickly from step 1 to 3 after I set the region and then popped the menu to rip a DVD again, and about a second later GBPVR crashed.
This is somewhat off-topic but still an issue with those of us that have built HTPCs with analog cards. I've currently built an HTPC with a PVR-150 and an HVR-1600 so that I can still get analog cable but also pull in OTA HDTV. So what will happen as we approach 2009 here in the US? Will the cable companies push out a digital signal that we can use other than QAM? What type of cards will I be able to use with my HTPC and digital cable in the future? Will the cable companies force us to rent a box?
