- added a menu item called 'Easy View'. My kids are getting big enough to control the remote themselves, so I wanted to give them an easy to use screen that they could control. It lists their recordings, DVDs and favourite TV channels as one list, with pictures next to each to make it simple, no menus etc (only requires up/down/enter keys).

Oh MAN.. this is a GREAT idea My kids are obviously the same age as Sub's..
How do I configure to denote which movies, channels, recordings, etc. should appear in the Easy View screen?
Installation goes fine and when it tries to automatically run the config for the first time it bombs and I lose my config settings and have to re-enter everything again. This happened on 99.05 also.
I copied off my config.xml and gbpvr.db3 to the desktop and once the installation was done my config.xml from the desktop was gone. Does that make sense?
Anyway I take it there is no way to get my old settings back and I have to re-enter. Is that right?
Everything was working fine and suddenly it never gets past the "Downloading Weather Forecast" screen. My internet connection works fine. I even re-installed the plug-in. I don't understand what could have happened.
This isnt a support thread! Dont post problem reports here - post them in the support forum. Any problem reports in this thread will be deleted. You welcome to post other questions or comments though.
If you're upgrading from a previous release, I recommend you backup you config.xml and gbpvr.db3 in case of unexpected problems.
HDHomeRun owners will need to redo their changes to bda.ini, since this file it not retained during upgrades
From the change.log
Quote:2007-02-27 v0.99.12 - reinstated favourite channel behaviour. When watching live tv, CH UP and CH DOWN will cycle through the favourites. You can still change to non favourites by typing the channel number or selecting from the tv guide or mini guide. - updated all DVB-S satellite lists with those kindly provided by joshyfun - added fullscreen exclusive mode option, which should help with video tearing experienced by some users. May also provide smoother video for some. Its still a bit "experimental", and I dont recommend using a mouse to control it. - fixed a bug with VMR9 Custom renderer that could cause a black flash immediately after changing channels, or a black screen when pausing. - fixed a bug that would cause the subtitle type message to not show when DVB subtitles were enabled by Teletext was not - improved support for diseqc switches with hauppauge/twinhan/firedtv devices - fixed a bug with OnAir GT QAM digital cable channel tuning - fixed a bug where that could cause the temporary Net Radio recording files to continue growing even after the user clicks 'stop'. This would only affect users that have <UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio>false</UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio> in their config.xml - fixed a problem that could sometimes occur with zap2it EPG updates - added ability to show some object in the 'next recording' panel when a recording is currently occurring. (via visible="@IsRecording" composite image element) - fixed a bug with the auto aspect ratio with Overlay video renderer. - changes to the way RGB -> YUV colour space conversion works on the MVP. Should improve colour rendition, and fix a problem reported by one user on an LCD screen. - fixed a couple of problems that could occur when playing music with Windows Media Player visualisation. Both related to WMP directly handling keystrokes it shouldnt have. - fixed a bug that would cause an 'object reference' error when initiating recording from live tv by selecting the 'record until I exit' option. - improvements to DVB-S channel scanning. - .avs files played on the MVP now use ffmpeg - fixed a display problem with 'recording details' popup when showing manual recordings. - now quicker to release memory after playing music files with visualisation. - config app automatically fixing a couple of common configuration errors that users make. - added an 'advanced BDA settings' button in the BDA capture source configuration that has a few settings that may be required by a small number of users. - added initial support for controlling the priority of reoccuring recordings. The priority is dictated by the order shown in the 'reoccurring' list in the Recordings screen. The top of the list is the highest priority. You can move a recording up or down the list by selecting it and pressing the FF or RW buttons. Changes to the priority will only affect future recordings, not conflicts that may already exist. - added the ability to change the order of the capture sources in the config app - fixed a bug that could cause a corrupt c:\zap2it.xml to be created when <SaveZap2itXML>true</SaveZap2itXML> in config.xml - made the list of extra files deleted configurable in config.xml via <DeleteAdditionalExtensions> setting. - added a menu item called 'Easy View'. My kids are getting big enough to control the remote themselves, so I wanted to give them an easy to use screen that they could control. It lists their recordings, DVDs and favourite TV channels as one list, with pictures next to each to make it simple, no menus etc (only requires up/down/enter keys). - added a few minor youtube enhancements. Keeps a cache of last ten (configureable) videos played. Added a favourites view. Added 'no matches found' search message. - a few improvements to the 'dont record duplicates' functionality for zap2it users. - slight change to improve channel scanning on HDHomeRun - no longer showing hidden directories in Music/Video/Picture Libraru, like recycler etc. - added some simplistic video queuing functionality to the Video Library. When you're watching a video, you can press home to switch to video inset mode, go to the video library and press the yellow key on one or more file files to queue them for playback after the current file. This key can be configured in the keymappings file if you need or prefer a different key. - and a few other things I forget (or choose to forget)...
i.e. the wife often records "Blue Clues" for our daughter - at the mo i move the recording via a mapped network drive from the recordings folder to the videos folder - it would be nice to be able to do that from EWA
I use the standard GBPVR scheduler for just about everything, but I want to start using priorityrecording to get the things that pop up only every few months or so (like Top Gear).
I am testing it with the word "King" as I know several shows have that in the title.
do I need to put PriorityRecording.exe in the PostUpdateEPG.bat??
when I run PriorityRecording.exe I get this:

I've hunted through here for a solution to this but I've drawn a blank. I've reinstalled my system disk (it died ) and now I have zero length recordings for mpg files recorded from a Terratec Cinergy dual tuner or the DVB-T side of a HVR1300. I have set it up exactly as before, and use the Cyberlink mux correctly registered. dvr-ms files are 6 kb and then stop. Logs attached. Any help greatly appreciated.
I'm thinking down the track I'll replace my aging DVD player with a DVD-ROM for the Media PC, but I'm concerned about losing my nice digital surround. If I get a soundcard with a SPDIF port, does anyone know if I'll be able to configure GBPVR to output the requisite signal so my amp will understand and decode?
