I was checking the active file handles on my system and found my MVP processes was repeatedly trying to open the following file:
C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Jeff\VAPanel-MVP.log
The system was recording a PATH NOT FOUND error for this file, but not in a log or anything... I saw this using the SysInternals File Monitor utility. Each MVP process records the error every couple of seconds.
At first blush this problem looks like a file reference left in inadvertantly during plugin development and related to the Video Archive plugin, but I don't have the VA plugin installed. I do use the Weather, Software Recorder, External Recorder and MVP Tray Icon.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what's referencing this file? I don't know that it's necessarily causing me any problems, but it does look like an error.
I have GB-PVR save the zap2it.xml file for processing by zaptools. Several times now, I've noticed that zapimport fails which I only notice when the EWA doesn't display the extended information from zaptools.
When this happens I find that the new XML data set is smaller than a previous data set, but the zap2it.xml file is not being completely re-written by GB-PVR. The new data is over writing the beginning of the existing file. The XML is then considered corrupt due to the garbage at the end of the file (left over from a previous download). zapimport appears to crash on the bad file and IE 7 is not able to parse and display it either. I thought maybe it was a fluke, but it has happened at least 3 times now.
I've updated my postEPGUpdate.bat file to delete the zap2it.xml file (after saving off a copy) when done processing.
Sorry, I have not kept a corrupt zap2it.xml file to show you.
After creating and configuring a Zap2it Account, i tried to update the EPG, but i get an error. The error message is in the attachment. I have tried disabing my firewall for mcafee and windows xp, and nothing works.
hi sub,
didn't know where to put it, so it ended up on the wishlist, ain't exactly a issue ;-)
1. the different native logs don't have the same format, would be easier to read them if they had the timestamps as the other logs (i.e. "26.01.2007 21:33:56.703 VERBOSE" instead of just "21:58:39.031 VERBOSE")
2. allmost all the timestamps of the logfiles (file changed date) are not up to date, kind of funny, logs made through plugins using GBPVR.Public.Logger have a correct timestamp. then again: the timestamp of %windir%\WindowsUpdate.log ain't up to date either ;-)
I've been running GBPVR for a month or so using my cable. I want to hook up my VCR and record off of it, but haven't seen how to do that. Or what if I want to just view what's coming in off my VCR. I've plugged it in using the comosite connections on my AverTV 150 card.
Just curious if anyone has encountered any issues with a Windows update hotfix or security patch.
My original installs of Windows XP SP2 with GBPVR goes smoothly - I can record TV, playback DVDs (with Nvidia PureVideo). However, after being alerted and installing some windows updates, playing any DVD causes my machine to reboot! After fiddling with some settings it was actually giving a BSOD with different drivers all of the time. After re-installing SP2, problem goes away.
Anyone experience anything similiar and now which update I should be avoiding?
I use ShowAnalyzer to do my commercial marking and it leaves a .txt and a .d2a file in the directory when it is finished. When I delete the show, the .txt file gets deleted as it should, but the .d2a file remains behind.
Is there a setting in GBPVR that would delete the .d2a file, too? As it is now, I have to manually delete each .d2a file.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get DVD playback over component video at 1080i? I have GBPVR setup and working with TV and all videos @ 1080i with no problems, but trying to playback at that resolution, I get an error message about not being able to playback the DVD on the designated interface. If I downgrade the resolution to 480i, it works just fine. I am using Cyberlink decoders for DVD playback. I am thinking that the Cyberlink decoder is enforcing the movie studio standards for max 480 resolution over component, but can not be for sure... Any ideas or work arounds would be greatly appreciated. Also, I have a few older HDTVs, no other HD interfaces other than component. VGA would have worked as well, but I don't have that either...
