4-5 days ago, I installed the XDVD plug-in, and a couple of days before that Daemon Tools. Since the XDVD plugin, none of my recordings actually happen (they do not show up as failed either).
I have rebooted the machine, restarted the recording service, and it happens with each scheduled recording - even the ones scheduled as Quick Record.
I have Windows XP with P4 3 GHz, 1GB RAM, plenty of hard drive space, PVR-150 (which has worked flawlessly all this time), all decoders set to system default, and GBPVR version 0.99.5
I can watch Live TV in GBPVR just fine.
This is the only error that I found at the time of the recording - (logs attached as well)

Very minor niggle on the blue skin.
On the "record screen" (tv guide, click on prog, click record), the "Record Types:" (record once, record season etc). has a left and right arrow at the right hand side to change the selection. The right arrow is fine, but the left arrow seems to be misplaced and I have to click in the space to the left of the arrow to make it do something.
As I say, minor to me, but I get the odd earache from others in the household....
Each week I download soaps from the UK which are MPEGs, but due to differences between PAL/NTSC I have to manually transcode them to 720x480 using TMPENG; otherwise they only display in the top half of the screen. It's a bit of a pain. In the same way that gbpvr 'sees' an .avi file and invokes ffmpeg to transcode it to play on the mvp, is there anyway it could do this for user-specified files (ie, these mpegs)? Or add another transcode option to run in the middle of the night? Thanks in advance.
It would be nice if support for these remotes will be available in future releases! I think (but I'm not sure) that what is needed is a SideShow app on GB-PVR.
so i got a ati 550 theater pro card awhile ago and have been using gbpvr ever since. The remote that came with the card was a cyberlink remote. For almost the last year i've never really set it up and have just dealt with limited functionality. Basically all i can do with the remote right now is volume, change channels, select where to go (ie music, live tv, tv guide) and thats it. The remote has lots of buttons that go unused such as a back button (which i really want), and hot keys to the different things (like a hot key for live tv, music, ect)
Can anyone give me advice on how to set up this remote? I've tried the different "remote" option in the config but i might be missing something
I'm using gbpvr with a Sky box in the UK, and the Dusky Control channel changer (from here http://www.dusky-control.com/) which works great, but the recorded programs all start with a second or so of the previous channel, then I see the numbers come up on screen and the box changing channel onto the right one.
Is there any way to make the channel change happen just before the recording starts?
I've got a Hauppauge 500 MCE, in a XPsp2 box(Dell) with 1gb Ram.
I've played around with the settings, but I cannot get regular TV to come in clear. downloaded AVI's play perfect, but anything I try to record myself (or just watch) is worse the a 10 year old VHS tape.
Should I be able to see channels almost as good as plugging the cable directly into my tv, or are my hopes too high.
(p.s. no Hi-Def or anything, nor any digital channels, just basic, basic cable)
