Can you go into detail about this? I have 3 tuners and have always changed the <PreferAlternatingCaptureSources> to True, and I would like to be sure that I should continue to do so.
Also, is the <TryToHonourPaddingIfPossible> part of the improvements?
Thanks again for such a kick butt program,

Hey sub - did I miss you mentioning this? or is this a new "secret" feature?
I just found out about pressing "Play" on a future program in the guide, and the cool notice that comes up. I think I mentioned it in a wishlist at some point... yeepee!
Anyone had this work and can say what it should do? I'm guessing it something like a reminder of program about to start popup, but I can't get it to work. Further info in the post below:
I bought Intel gigabit Network cards for my Server 2003 PVR machine and for my XP workstations. For the server I got a PWLA8490MT PRO/1000 MT Server Adapter and for my workstations I got PWLA8391GT adapters.
They work great for communications between the computers, but they are nightmares for my MVPs.
I tried both the server adapter and the workstation adapter with the lattest drivers in the PVR machine. With either one the MVPs disconnect randomly while recorded shows or live TV is playing.
The server card was the worst. With it I lost connection a dozen times in an hour show. Using the workstation card it only disconnects on average 2 or 3 times in an hour long show.
I tired various advanced settings for the drivers with no change. Has anyone else had better experience with these cards and the MVP -- If so, please tell me what version of the drivers you are using.
Doeas anyone know if it's possible to slow down the rate at which the Radar map etc cycles thorough it's frames when your displaying the map option in the Weather plugin?
Mine seems to change so fast you don't get time to read the date/time at the bottom.
Help! I can't figure out what is going wrong. This mornining GBPVR was working fine then I started to install some plugins and utilities. I started with the "comskip" utility and then the "TVGuideSupercharger." After this GBPVR still worked fine. Next I installed the "ProgramImageTool" utility and tried to run it 4 times and each time it failed. I then restarted my system and tried to start GBPVR and it crashed. I attempted this 3 more times and each time it crashed. I pulled the following error message from the "GBPVR.exe.log". Can anyone help me? I do not know what I need to do.
Thank you,
David

I've just installed the software today, it's running on a Hauppauge Nova-T PCI (90003)
It's largely running properly, but I've got a couple of problems.
The big one is that Five and ITV2 are frozen when I look at them. The audio is working, but I get a snapshot of what is happening when the channel starts. Using the up-channel or down-channel buttons on the remote doesn't clear it, but when I press the number buttons to select a new channel, it clears itself and the software works properly.
It's only Five and ITV2 that do this. The both work properly in WinTV2000. After a scan there is a Five #2 and a ITV2 #2 entry, but selecting those doesn't improve things.
If I could stay inside GBPVR and control my Sony 400 Disk DVD player without having to leave the program that would be great.
I could create a table with the list of movies and then use GBPVR to ir blast the DVD player to select the movie.
I alraedy have the equipment so there's no need to buy 15 hard drives and take the time to rip 400 DVD's just so i can stay inside the program.
I just finished (or almost finished) putting together my PVR using GB-PVR and I'm trying to add one little option. I'm not sure if I would have to make a plug-in for this (which I am willing to look into).
Anyway, what I want to do is automatically enable the "Timeshifting mode" that GB-PVR goes into when you hit pause when watching live tv as soon as you start watching a channel. As I understand it this records the live tv you are watching so you can pause, rewind, etc live tv.
Then when you change the channel, the file for the previous channel gets deleted (or saved depending on preference) and the next show is put into "Timeshifting mode"
Can this be done through GB-PVR settings, or is a plugin required?
