Okay, recorded a new episode of "Grey's Anatomy" tonight, and watched it on MVP.
It had finished recording an hour before I watched it, and I could see the commercials on the timeline when I hit the blue button on my MVP remote.
The commercials would not skip, and hitting play and toggling '999' made no difference. I ended up having to skip (>|) thru all the commercials, as if the comskip data was not available.
Afterwards, I pulled up the show on GBPVR on my computer, and the commercial skip was working fine on this show.
Is this strictly an MVP issue? I never watch TV on my computer, so I have no idea if this problem occurs if watching via GBPVR. The last time I found myself with a disfunctional comskipping program I simply moved it and the comskip files to my video directory and it played with commercial skip just fine. (via MVP)
i am currnetly working on a live-cd or thumb drive to use as a GBPVR client mode instant,unbreakable os...
currently i have a bootable thumb drive with dos+BartXPpe with dot.net 2.0 installed and msjet and ADO and directx 9b...
should work on 90+% of the machines out there with the drivers included...
i still have to get the gbpvr install captured with the registry stuff and all, but the platform is working pretty well...plays mpeg2 videos well with mplayerclassic, and may be able to get media player 10 on there also..
sound is working and both ati and nvidia video drivers..
it's too large with .net 2 to make a cdrom right now but i'll see if i can't lean it up a bit...
works on dvd disc tho... [and thumb drive/small usb hard drives, but slow booting..]
will post updates and news as it comes...
[next stop, pre-installing GBPVR in client mode]
will have to see what parts of dot-not it needs and doesn't work...
p.s. can also be installed to hard drive as only os...
I went to playa VOB file after putting it on the computer. Well I hit play and the movie plays but with no sounds. I am not sure why anyone have any ideas?
has anyone got mame to work using a remote in gbpvr? Like just for simple games like pacman or tetris? I use hip so if there is a way to get it to work using hip that'd be cool, I haven't tried my programs plugin yet, I will have to play with that later.......I use a MX-500 remote so I thought the joystick on the remote would be neat for the direction........
Question: Can I use GB to tune analog channels on my Kworld ATSC 110 card? I've gotten the digital part to work wonderfully now. I also have satellite so I would like to tune to channel 3 to record shows i'm watching on tv digitally. Is there anyway to do this? I can only find ATSC110 listed in the DVB device list...
I was just wondering if anyone has gotten both tuners to work with the PVR500 and also GBPVR I cannot seem to get both tuers working just one so I have to watch what I record. Anyways if someone has some experiance on what it might be would be helpful thanks.

here is the error in the log file :

so I got to playing around with codecs in my system. I uninstalled everything I could find divx, xvid, mpeg2 stuff. Then I looked through the system with DXMAN and codec Sniper + removed all of the codecs that were reported as bad.
The good news:
When I re-installed purevideo I now have perfect playback on HDTV content that was previosly recorded (instead of jerky playback as b4)
The bad news:
I get error "object reference not set to an instance of an object" when trying to play live TV. On my clients i get "No TV tuners are available to watch the requested channel. You can choose to watch one of the currently recording programs" but the only option it gives me is "Don't watch TV"
I tried to uninstall/reinstall GBPVR - I even killed the entire directory structure when I did so. I also ran a repair on .net 2. All to get me nothing! Attaching logs as they seem to help.
edit: I forgot to say please + thanks in advance - where are my manners?
