I have a Hauppauge PVR-150 which is working great with GB-PVR, except for one issue...
I have my Cable Box connected, and I can view my HBO channels through live TV just fine: the PVR-150 sends the IR signal and it changes the channel on the set top box.
The problem I am having is that when I schedule a recording on an HBO channel, the IR blaster doesn't change the channel, so I get a recording of whatever channel the STB is currently on. There must be some way to get the recording service to change the channel for me.
Up until a few weeks ago I could play a show while it was recording, or even switch to live TV for a channel that is being recorded. Now it stops at the first frame of video and does nothing. Any idea what causes this, and what may have changed?
If you have a laptop that u may take different places but is also connected to mvp, how do u manage disconnecting it form mvp? turn off mvp, leave it on, etc?
It seems like moving my system to HD Display is full of problems, connected my PVR though a Dvi to HDMI cable and set the resolution 1152 x 648 (orginall had 1280 x 720 but it expands lightly past my TV edges and I can't see the icons on the Taskbar or clock) Eveytime I go to watch in Live TV it crashes GB-PVR?
I am trying to rebuild my channel lineup unsuccessfully. I have removed all capture sources, and disabled all channels under the "Channels" tab, few are sticking and I am not able to remove them. Any ideas? Thanks
I just bought a wired mvp and open the package. I plug everything into the right spot, including putting a belkin crossover cable (yes, it's a crossover cable and has it written on the cable) between laptop and mvp. However, the mvp won't connect. On the little network symbol on taskbar, it says: "limited connection". On the tv, it says: "No streaming server found! Please check your network settings and make sure server is running.". I start gbpvr but I don't see any gbpvr on the tv. This computer is connected to internet by dialup..so no router. I did enable Internet connection sharing. On the ICS properties, there's like a dozen MVP boxes which I checked. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
I have installed Comskip and have told GBPvr to run it while recording and have told it to not run while recording. Either way doesn't matter it isn't cutting out the commericals.
I know this works because it was working before...Of course that was on WindowsXP.. I'm now running Vista.... may that be the reason and has anyone figured this out yet?
I am having a problem playing recordings on my client pc. After selecting play, it waits a few seconds then goes back to the recordings screen. I took a look in the logs and from I can tell it looks like the playback ended but nothing ever started. All of the files I tried on the client work fine on the server. Anyone have any ideas? Logs are attached.
Yesterday I installed the Security Update for Windows XP (KB925902) and rebooted. After that the recording service would not run at all. It would not start automatically after a reboot and would not start when I started the UI. I did get one windows error and here is the entry in the application events in the event viewer:
