hi guys. My GBPVR setup has been working great until this last week. I'm not sure if it's because i've installed the latest GBPVR (which came out at Christmas) but now what happens is:
my 'MediaMVP' shows "contacting servers...", and then it flashes the GBPVR page for a 1/10th of a second, and then goes back to "contacting servers..." in an endless loop.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Mediamvp and gbpvr, but neither re-installation makes any difference.
If i disable the gbpvr service and enable the mediamvp services, the mediamvp works fine, so it's definitely something with gbpvr, but i'm not sure what. please - anyone help?
I finally connected an MVP and I saw my available RAM go down to single digits. Since my PC will be using the HDD pagefile more would I see a significant improvement if I installed another 512MB? I know RAM is faster than the HDD but all I am using the PC for is GBPVR. I have my doubts that the increased speed will improve GBPVR much.
I'm running GBPVR 0.99.05 via an MVP. I recently setup the Video Library and Music Library to use a UNC path on another PC, and after configuring the GBPVR Recording Service to run as a user with network access the Video Library now plays fine via MVP.
I can play MP3 files in the Music Library fine using GBPVR on my PC -- I see what looks like a small WMP window in the lower left corner of the GBPVR window. However, when I try to play the same files via MVP I get no nothing. I can browse the MP3 files in the Music Library, but when I press the OK button on a file (or select Play or Play All) nothing happens -- in particular, there's no audio.
The gbpvr.exe.log has entries indicating that the file should be playing:
Code:

Please forgive me but I have searched and searched for an answer to my problem.
I just downloaded and installed the lastest version of GBPVR. I followed the directions and only installed the original driver for the PVR 350. I didn't install the IR until I couldn't get it to work so I copied the IR.exe and ran the setup. It loaded but I got the old " Failed to Initialize Infared Remote Hardware" error. I have read all sorts of fixes but I'm not really sure what I should do. Any advice would be appreciated.
Is there away to have the Hauppauge 45 button remote not lose focus?. I have gb-pvr running on my tv which is my secondary monitor on my computer. My wife watches the tv and i use the computer but when i do anything on the computer the remote starts contrlling my pc.
Also anybody ever figure out whats going on with the start on second monitor issue?.. I clicked the box but it still starts on my primary monitor unless i go windowed mode and leave it on the second monitor.
I've installed an Nova-t 500 and can make recordings in the Microsoft format. They play back fine on the PC but on the MPV I get a black screen (no sound) then after 10 seconds it returns to the menu.
On the Pc I see a DOS box pop up briefly saying FindFilterByName Cyberlink Mux failed.
Cyberlink PowerDVD 7 is installed but the BDA mux checker says no multiplexer filters installed.
I was testing out the shutdown plugin and it errors out with a message stating that the date time variable is not representable or something like that. My guess is that the plugin is unsupported and it no longer works but just in case it is supported I thought I would report this bug.
I'm trying to use this because the shutdown in GBPVR has never worked on my win2k machine. It always leaves me with a messagebox with the mesasge.
It is ok to turn off your machine.
This only happens when I shutdown from within GBPVR in the system menu. From the start menu the shutdown always turns the machine completely off. Has anyone else seen this behavior or if anyone has any ideas, let me know.
