Hello,
Have just tried the mvpmc dongle, both 3.3 as well as the daily build.
It works great. However I have found that for certain move files (mpeg recorded trough DVB-T) neither pause nor skip buttons seems to work. But for other there is no problem. The same files play well with the gbpvr dongle.
I thought it may have to do with a bad timeline so I ran them through retime but still no luck. Is this something you have seen before?
I have not found any pattern for why some files work and some don't.

Regards
Oscar

I just upgraded to EWA 5.7 and had a question about the installation instructions on the wiki. I believe that the new EWA releases have introduced the RSS support with a new directory named RSS. a) Do I have to unzip and move this directory under the gbpvr main directory if I don't intend to use RSS? b) When I upgrade EWA in the future, do I need to remove all of the RSS subcomponents? Right now, I am assuming that the answer is YES to both of these questions but an update to the wiki might be in order.

I primarily use EWA for scheduling recordings so I spend the majority of my time using the Episode Search capabilities... so little improvements made here mean a lot!

I have a relatively small number of "favorite" channels (< 15) and a small number of genres that are of interest to me (probably < 10).

Alternate options that I think would meet my needs are:

a) Allow me to leave the genre BLANK (I assume this equates to ALL) and then select my group of favorite channels. While the Episode Search page theoretically allows this, I end up with an "index out of range" error if I select more that about 3 channels. Obviously EWA has to sort through a lot of info in this instance and it is presumably simply running out of allocated memory.

b) Allow the genre selection widget to function more like the channels selection widget... allowing me to select more than one genre as a group. In this way I could (theoretically) select my favorite multiple genre first, and then select my multiple favorite channels second.

c) Maybe have some place on the config page where I could enter my favorite channels (as a list) and my favorite genre (as a list) and then have a single button on the Episode Search page that is simply "search your favorite channels and genre"... this being (perhaps) my favourite option.

Perhaps there is already a way to do accomplish my goal of which I am unaware....

I am house sitting for a friend this week and I was using their DVR to record some shows and I noticed an options that I thought would be nice. If I schedule a recording like a sport event. I always like to extend that recording an extra 30 minutes. Well at home with the MVP that means I have to hit the remote right arrow button 30 times? which is slow sometimes especially if I want to make it even longer.

The DVR here lets me do it in 2 ways. If I hit the arrow on the remote to the right it increases the increments by seconds like normal. But if I hit the arrow to the left it scrolls to options like
" 2 hours Later", “1 1/2 hours later", "1 hour later", 30 Minutes Later", "15 minutes Later" "10 Minutes Later", "9 Minutes Later" and so on.

would this ever be possible to add?

As soon as I open gbpvr9905 I get a microsoft error message - "gbpvr has encountered a problem and needs to close. we apologise for this inconvenience" and then an option to send an error report or not. This is happening every time I attempt to open the software (But the config opens fine.). It didn't happen before I had my channels scanned correctly (which I was having some trouble with.)

But now these all scanned and mapped correctly with updated epg.
BDA recorder plug-in, DVB epg broadcast, no channel changer required (I'm not sure what that is).

I have a freecom usb dvb-t stick and win xp sp2. I also have total media software installed, if that makes a difference.

Can someone rewrite the following in order to add a analog Capture Card which is not listed. The text is copied from Wiki GBPVR and is only for digital cards. I have found the INI-Files and downloaded Graphedit, but cannot find +BDA Receiver Component(because it's an analog TV-Card?). Can someone supply an example for an analog card?

Add Capture Card

You have not found your CaptureCard in the supported TV card list.
Now you need to add a section in the INI files to get you card working with GBPVR.

Note!
Analog TVcard must have a hardware MPEG2 encoder chip.
Digital TV card must have BDA drivers.

Step 1
Find the INI files in the GBPVR directory and open it.
Analog TVcard INI file = Direct.INI
Digital TVcard INI file = BDA.INI

Step 2
Copy a section of an existing TV card and rename to you card. Example belows show a copy of the Conexant section Note! Filter name must have exact spelling and it is case sensitive

To find the names of the filters, open GraphEdit (link below) and select Graph→Insert Filters… (or type Ctrl-F) Click the ‘+’ next to BDA Receiver Component and BDA Source Filters In the BDA Receiver Component Section ignore the BDA MPE Filter and BDA Slip De-Framer and note the name of the next filter in the list. BDA Source Filters should only list one filter unless you’ve installed multiple TV cards.

Use the filter specified in BDA Source Filters as the name for FILTER_TUNER. Use the filter specified in BDA Receiver Component for FILTER_CAPTURE Spelling must be exact, including capitals.

[Conexant BDA DVB-T]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
FILTER_TUNER=Conexant BDA DVB-T Tuner/Demod
FILTER_CAPTURE=Conexant 2388x Transport Stream Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

[Your Digital TV card name ]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
FILTER_TUNER=Your TV cards Tuner Filter name
FILTER_CAPTURE=Your TV cards Transport Stream Capture filter name
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

If you only have a filter name is listed in both the Receiver section in GraphEdit, use the following bda.ini entry instead

[Your Digital TV card name ]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
RECEIVER_ONLY_MODE=1
FILTER_RECEIVER=Your TV card’s filter name
PIN_RECEIVER_IN=Antenna In Pin
PIN_RECEIVER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

Step3
Save INI file and test.

Tools to find filter name
Use Microsoft GraphEdit to find filter names.

which I hope that Martin might eventually be able to fix

As I type this I am running gbpvr in debug mode and ML2 with the setting "insane amount of logging" in the hope that something useful might be detected.

Two new DynamicSource mini-plugin apps are now available for use with UbuStream v2.0:

Sky News video - [B]"SkyNews DynSource a[/B][B]pp to replace broken BBC one"

[/B]ABC Australia video - "New DynSource App - ABC Australia Video On Demand"

I'm trying to set up GB-PVR to encode my output to XVID or DivX but keeping the quality high. I've found the default settings for XVID to give a very poor result.

So I was wondering if anyone had a Custom FFmpeg Conversion settings from config.xml which produces good results?

I tried creating my own
