ok well so far most things in my gbpvr setup work well however, one thing that doesnt really have many features is the music player. i have tried mediabox and the built in music player and both are just sub par. i cannot play all of my music i can only play the music in a specific directory. example, i have all of my music sorted \artist\album\song. i have to navigate into the album folder and select the song for it to play. is there any way to just say play all of my music in every folder? the "play all" button does not seem to work....
Can the Video Archive plugin be used to replace the "Video Library" that comes with the standard GBPVR download? I have family videos that I converted to mpeg and watch on my MVP using the "Video Library". They are in a directory called Videos and then in sub-directories depending on the type of video(vacations, kids sports, holidays, etc.) When I point the "Videos" plugin to this directory I just get the hour glass. Am I doing something wrong?
If you don't want to run Cat5 cables around your house to your network kit (MVP) but have problems streaming reliably over WiFi this will put Ethernet over your existing house mains power cables.
I know similar powerline kit has been available for a long time, but this works to a much higher speed. Units give 200Mbps physical layer bandwidth, the tester says he got a TCP bandwidth of 43.5Mbps which should be good enough for most things.
My current set-up is three Asus P7131 Dual (single DVB-T in each card - I'm not using the Analogue side) cards.
To explain my problem, what I seem to be seeing is:
I have set all recordings to pre-pad 5 minutes and post-pad 15 minutes.
Show 1 is on Channel 1 19:00-19:30 (I'd expect to get 18:55-19:45)
Show 2 is on Channel 2 19:00-19:30 (I'd expect to get 18:55-19:45)
Show 3 is on Channel 3 19:30-20:30 (I'd expect to get 19:25-20:45)
now if I add another show for an existing Channel:
Show 4 is on Channel 2 19:30-20:30
I'd expect Show 2 to be interupted (giving me 18:55-19:30) and then Show 4 would be 19:30 to 20:45.
What seems to happen though is that *both* of the earlier shows are interupted (18:55 to 19:30) and then the next shows are recorded 19:30-20:45.
Is it possible to only interupt (where necessary) the Channel it is already recording (permitting the joining of files later if the break is not at the end/start of the show), or even join the recordings naturally?
Is it the last "x" number of recordings or such? Can that number be increased easily (currently 35 or so)?
I typically "Archive" a number of recordings for additional processing (removal of Ads, writing to DVD), but as I may not get round to them for a week or two they drop off this view.

hi guys - not sure if this is in the correct place - but in my logs im getting the following errors and just wanted to check if they were an issue or not ?
im only using a single mvp - no gui on the server....

This is really not much of an issue but I thought I would throw it out there.
If I start-up GBPVR and exit within a minute or two, I always get a GBPVR has caused an error message box. If I wait for 3 or more minutes it never crashes. It doesn't cause any problems, but I thought I would report it.
Well, it seems gbpvr screwed up another recording of the same show I attempted to record a couple months ago (and therefore I have yet to get the damn episode recorded). I also lost a 2 other shows because gbpvr stopped recording audio/video without giving any notice of doing so. It kept taking up space though. I open the 14 gig file that resulted from 5 hours of recording (720x480, NTSC 29.97fps, 192kbps mono) and both my mpg editor and Windows Media Player say the file is only 1 hr 27 min long. How can that be? I have no idea. It just stopped recording right in the middle of a commerical. The only thing I can think of is that since I was playing PowerDVD at the same time that gbpvr got nervous and decided to stop recording. Does it not play nice with other video software? I was also using quickpar, UltraISO, Opera, a news program, etc. so if the video software isn't the problem then something else was. I'd like to know so I can eventually get a particular episode recorded that I've now tried 2 times with gbpvr to no avail.
?
