I'm looking to launch Zoomplayer Pro for playback of recorded television programs saved in a MPEG television stream format from the GB-PVR interface. I've search and they thing I've found mentioned is external players for the DVD playback but no mention of television show playback from the recorded shows interface.
The streaming on the EWA allows for lower quality and probably better streaming . I get better streaming on it. Using GBPVR as client, my streaming is pretty choppy. So the wishlist is to allow a lower quality streaming, which might help with the choppiness
I have a haug pvr 2 usb 2 and I config it for that and set up channels. When I try to watch something from the guide it goes to a blank screen. I click and it goes back to main menu. Any help? I like this program and want it to work.
Here's a repackaged install for the XRecord suite that should include all the patches for post .net 2.0 versions of gb-pvr. It works for me but could some people try it and tell me if it works for them before I update the wiki.
As usual make backups before trying new stuff.
Thanks.
Edited: 2007-02-06 Newer package available on the wiki so removed this old attachment.
My sysytem was working fine, the only change I made was shutting off file indexing on my hard drives to free up some ram, and maybe speed things up a little. Now I have no sound on either my live tv or recordings. Would turning off file indexing cause this problem? I've searched the forums with no avail, perhaps someone has an idea. Thanks in advance!
I'm thinking of ditching cable for DirectTV. I'd be interested in hearing any comments any of you have about it...picture quality, reliability, and (perhaps most important ) how well/easily does it interface with GB-PVR. I'd probably be going with a couple of standard receivers and one HD receiver (I realize I can't record HD from it). Any input would be appreciated.
If I get the wired version of the mvp, will it be as responsive as a standalone dvr? I.e. How long does it take to "boot up" and contact the host computer; how long between pressing a button to scroll thorugh shows do u get a response; and are u able to fast forward, jump 30s for commercial, etc. like u would for a dvr w/o hesitation?
Hello,
I am considering setting up a gbpvr system soon (but first I need to find a computer) although I am prepared to obtain one. I'd probably get one similar to my setup now. The details can be found in my other post titled, "Hauppauge PVR 150 w/blaster, SA-Explorer 2000."
Anyway, I am having problems trying to burn dvds in mythtv which is frustrating me and I would still like to try a Windows setup (not MCE) and see how it operates regarding burning DVDs. The main reason to do all this is to avoid the costs of renting a digital cable PVR box from the local cable company. That is why mythtv and gbpvr are my main choices currently.
Is there any sticky or thread regarding burning dvds? Either I missed it and couldn't find one or there are seperate posts on the issue depending on the particular problem?
I was hoping there are certain steps and that it is not too complicated. I hope to get dvd-quality and store recordings on a harddrive until they are burned on DVD.
I appreciate any advice and/or explanations.
I am relatively confident I can find info here to guide me in setting up gbpvr (although, I am a bit concerned about the setting up of the IR blaster for changing channels - is that covered here?). But, I anticipate some problems burning but hopefully, there are already discussions on this.
