I recently installed the 9.0b quartz.dll after carefully reading this thread and following the instructions: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=5600 to try and see if it would solve some stuttering I had noticed with GB-PVR recordings. The computer was working fine AFTER I installed the quartz.dll, rebooted, watched and recorded some shows.
However, the morning after (Apr 3 or 4, I think), I noticed Windows update showed a critical update needed to be installed. I was debating whether the update notification may have been triggered due to the DirectX change, but the details on the update mentioned something about a critical security upgrade, so I went ahead and installed it.
After installing the update, I am unable to login to my computer. When I try starting windows normally, it gets stuck at the "Windows is Starting up" screen. In safe mode (without networking), when I enter login name and password, it gives me an error "system could not log you on now as the domain <PCNAME> is not available". It does not matter if I try to use my regular user account or Administrator account to login, it gives the same message. I also tried rebooting into the command prompt, but it prompts me for login/password and gives above error. Irrespective, I cannot login to the computer.
Not sure if this was caused by the DirectX quartz dll change or due to the update installed by Windows (or if the Windows update was triggered because it noticed the older version of DirectX change?) so I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but hope someone more technically knowledgeable can suggest some options that can help me get past the above error. I can then try uninstalling the most recent hotfix and see if that fixes the issue. If that doesn't work, I'll try to undo the quartz dll patch.
Would appreciate any help or guidance to where I can find help on this.
My System specs: Athlon XP 2200+, 768MB RAM, 20GB HDD, AIW Radeon, Windows 2000 w/ SP4.
I downloaded the alpha version of dongle, which has dongle.bin and another file and I copy it to the dongle folder w/in gbpvr. I rename the dongle.bin file originally in there to 2.bin. However, it still pulls up the old blue theme and I don't notice any difference. What am I don't wrong?
any way to get gbpvr to be default gui for the mvp? Seems like it's 50/50 between whether i get gbpvr or the hauppage interface. What I have to do is restart computer, let mvp load hauppage interface, stop hauppage services, and then hope that mvp picks up gbpvr media server. sometimes, it's stuck "connecting....can't load media server" so no guarantees.
also, seems like if u press power on mvp before u disconnet network connection, u can resume from where u left off once u plug network cable in again. if u don't press the power button, it keeps searching forever.
I know this question has probably been asked 8000 times but I can't for the life of me find a thread on it on this forum:
I am using the 45 button Hauppage remote, the granularity of the sound adjustment with the remote is too coarse. Is there any way to change the granularity? Or perhaps change things to a log response from a linear? Or slow down the increment as you are holding down the button?
I turned on the timeshifting mode and now when changing channels it can take 1-2 secs for the channel change to occur and then you get another 1-5 secs of frozen, stuttering video before live kicks in. Is this nominal with timeshifting mode?
If it's not nominal are there any settings I can adjust to minimize the delay in changing channels, the stuttering? One quick note: I did bump the low/med/high quality recording bit rate settings up in the hopes of getting better quality recordings(bumped like 15% each). Would this have an affect? What's the default recording mode in time shift?
Or is the stuttering hardware related? System:
2.4GHz P4
1G RAM
Ti4200(changing to 7600GS today)
I have a couple custom tasks set up under GBPVR.
They just launch an exe program.
I set up the task so gbpvr will minimize when the task loads and restore when the task finishes.
The problem I'm having is after exiting the new application GBPVR does not restore. it stays minimized in the taskbar.
If I Alt+Tab gbpvr back into focus then it will pop up for a second, minimize, and launch the custom task again.
If I exit again, then it seems to be fine.
Any ideas why it would be doing this? It does it for multiple custom tasks as well, not 1 task specifically.
The card has both digital and analog tuners. Cable is hooked up to analog and is what I'm trying to get working. BDA Devise Config Type is showing ATSC.
I can search for shows and it finds them, so my Zap2It must be working.
'Map Digital channel...' on searches up to 68 and doesn't find anything.
Does this mean its onlly looking at the digital tuner? I can pickup a few digital over the air channels in Beyond TV, but they're listed as channels 1000+
Hi,
I don´t think this is a GBPVR related item but as this forum is so friendly and have so much knowledge I hope someone can help me anyway.
My problem is thatt my gbpvr server wakes up from standby regularly, approx every 30 min it wakes up. Acesses the disk for a while and then goes back to sleep after the set time of 5 min.
I have disabled all auto updates. The server is set to wake-on lan but I don't think anything in my network is sending a magic packet so regularly.
Is there some way I can log or in any other way determine what is causing this.
