I'm a new to GBPVR. I have a VBox 150, PVR-150, geforece 6600, purevideo decoder, asus motherboard, 500GB HD, 1GB RAM, 2.5Gzh intel.

Latest Vbox 150 driver.
Foreware Nvidia 9.2.9.1

Anyways, I just setup the software for the VBOX only, and updated the EPG, and scanned for the channels. It picked up all the OTA HD signals, and mapped correctly.

The problem here is that when I try to watch tv, either from the Guide of directly to live tv, it just hangs there. No indication of what is happening.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have GBpvr with a MCE remote. It works fairly well but there are areas that needs to be improved.

In Music Library, the buttons Replay ("|<") and skip (">|") wont work.That means that I can only play the whole folder or just one song, nothing in between.

When I play a DVD I would like to have better supporty for Subtitles, but I'm not shure wich button that should be allocated for this task.
I guess that the info-button has certain tasks committed already. But the teletext button could maybe be used when I watch DVD (iso and dvd-player).

I did try the HIP program but it felt very slow and I never got MCE to work correct.

If these small problems can be solved, I have no use for external programs to help me. There may be some other tasks that miss a mapping in MCE remote, if so, I'll add them here.

GB-PVR seems to work OK, and live TV is fine, but my recordings suffer from dropped frames and outages of a second or two, sometimes up to several times a minute.

This is not signal related, as live TV quality is fine and we have no problems at all with our main television which is fed from the same antenna. I have also never expereinced any similar problem with my older Adaptec analogue tuner and WinDVR software.

I don't believe the problem is hardware-related, as I have tried two different PCI cards, a KWorld DVB-T 220 and a Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid Pro. The behaviour with both is very similar.

My machine is fairly high spec, with SCSI disks, a 3GB processor and 2GB RAM.

Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Thanks

hey guys,

i got a clean install of gb-pvr. i have configured it and it found the tuner card. if i go to live tv i see nothing. if i go to the tunining assistant i can see the video. am i missing a setting somewhere.

i have a previous install that worked right but i kept getting error messages so i reinstalled...

I'm sorry if the answer to this is obvious. I have worked on it for several hours and am stumped.

I recently went on a week-ling business trip, and set up the schedule to record several shows while I was away. Each was set up as an individual recording using the EPG. I left the PC on standby and went on my trip. When I came back, all but one of the recordings failed, and I cannot figure out why. (I have done this before on trips and it worked fine.)

I 've gone through the system logs and the gbpvr logs (attached). The only error I found in the system log was a "Database Locked" error at 9:48 PM on 1/28 - and the only recording that was successful was the one at 10:00 PM that day. I have the beginning padding set ot 2 minutes, so no clue why the system was awake at 9:48.

In the GBPVR logs, the only thing I can find labeled "ERROR" is a succession of "Unable to find node: /Settings/SpecialElements/Special Element [@name= "..."] where the name is mostly "Foreground Transparency" and once, "MenuType".

I'm happy to try to troubleshoot this myself, but at this point I am out of ideas. Please help.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to get my remote to work properly with GB-PVR, but whenever I hit the rewind button it opens up another program I have where the shortcut is Ctrl-Shift-D I try closing the program but then the rewind button just doesn't do anything at all. When I look in the remote ini file it says for GB-PVR Rewind is mapped to Ctrl-D So I'm wondering where is the shift coming from? I use a Hauppauge 45 button silver remote and have tried the "fix the hauppauge remote" thing but it doesn't help.

This may not exactly be a problem for the majority of GBPVR users, still....

GBPVR v99.5 w/ MusicPlayer and ML2 5.4

I have a rather large classical music collection. It is quite cleanly tagged with id3 v3v2.3 (mp3tag v2.37a).

Some filenames (and tags) include german umlauts (ä, ö, ü). While the individual files/their respective tags can be browsed and played with either MusicPlayer or ML2, playlists containing these filenames with umlauts appear empty. The playlist itself shows up, but no files are loaded nor can they be played.

I have attached two sample playlists for information. The original playlists is one of those that does not work. The saved playlists is an export from ML2. It plays in ML2, but not anywhere else. It is empty when loading it in mp3tag and it doesn't play in winamp because the umlauts in the filenames are corrupt.

Any chance of getting this fixed?

Thanks

Well this is a second time that i'm trying to use the gbpvr software.
i'm using SAGETV until now.

Well my problem is very simple, i cant see a LiveTv, when i boot up my system and trying to see the LiveTv on GBPVR the picture is like out of tuning. black & white jummpy.......

If i'm getting out of the GBPVR software and runinig the WinTv2000 i can see a great pic, Then i'm starting up my Gbpvr software again and the pic is great !!!

What is that?? i can see livetv only if i'm rununig wintv or sage befor i'm runnig the gbpvr.

and if i'm usinig the pause on a LiveTv in the GBPVR after i'm using the play again the pic quality and sound is horrible.

Thanks

I'm using Pvr-350 the STB is connected to compsite of the card, i dont use the antena or cable tune.

i even tried the quartz.dll tweak to see f it solving the problem and it is not!

So I bought a WinTV-PVR-150 MCE Kit (model 1062), seen here. I am trying to manually set up all the buttons on it using hip. But for the life of me I cant disable the buttons that the drivers have set up. I have tried to follow the hip guide but since I have a Hauppauge remote and not an MCE remote it wont work. Has anybody been succesful at doing this?

Hi Sub,

I've had a pretty stable GB-PVR environment until recently where I have the latest version of MS flight simulator installed. Basically after I use then close flight simulator, I get problems in GB-PVR whereby I can not (a) play a file or (b) watch live tv. I am using the microsoft mux (DVR-MS) for a BDA mux.

The error message I get is below:
