I have GB PVR 99.5, I downloaded RenameRecording_98.zip. Will they work together?

I saw some post about renamerecording not working with the sqllist database.

I ran it, and it changed the file name, but not the databse.

I get this error:

Have comcast and when I do the channel tunning assistant, it shows all the available channels from 1-100. I then setup my config and establish receiver data.

Do the Channels and I get some missing. Some in the 30's and all from 40-70

I do the tunner setup numerous times but no joy

I added a Custom Task to the Plugins tab that is supposed to run a batch file (for Zprocess). I get "Access is Denied" when I try to run it.

The same thing happens when I try to play an ISO file with xDVD.

I installed GBPVR using an admin account. The recording service and GBPVR.exe run under System account. GBPRV tray runs under the same account I used to install, which is an admin account.

Any ideas?

Hello All

I'm new to this forum as well as the wonderful world of HTPC!

First I would like to thank the author of gbpvr, excellent program! Looking forward to using it!

I tried to list all my hardware below in my signature, hope I did not leave anything out.

Going thru a divorce so the funds are not what they used to! I have custody of my two boy's 11 and 15 years and after mom cleaned me out of most of my electronics I decided the boys & I needed to "upgrade" the entertainment center.

Purchased the TV thru overstock.com and was 100% satisfied with the purchase! Nice TV. I had a couple movies on my server that I wanted to watch on the TV so I would copy the movies to my laptop & connect to the Sony via external VGA connector. Was quite impressed with the results so I thought I would make use of a spare Dell that I had stashed in the basement.

Loaded XP Professional on Dell & connected to the Sony via external VGA as well as the internal sound card. Purchased Microsoft wireless keyboard & mouse and was ready to go! Again, funds are tight so I decided to try gbpvr.

Nice program but I have a few issues. Also thought I would ask for some suggestions as well.

Purchased a Memorex dual layer DVD player/burner & loaded the Nero6 Memorex suite. Figured the Nero6 has a decoder that I would need to play DVD movies.

Playing Polar Express thru MS Media Player all looks good but the CPU runs between 80 and 90 percent. When I moved over to gbpvr the video was choppy still at about 80 to 90 percent so I started sniffing thru this support forum & found the DirecX 9.0c and the quartz.dll issue. I replaced quartz.dll and rebooted but still getting chop playing Polar Express thru gbpvr.

Any suggestions on where I should go from here? I was thinking about installing a video card BUT I don't have an AGP slot on the MoBo, just PCI slots. Also, should I think about installing a sound card as well?

I have read on the AVS forum that some people where able to record HD video via the firewire port on the rear of the Comcast box, I have a firewire card in the PC but it looks like LOTS of work getting a successful recording.

Not sure if I should invest in a TV tuner card or not. For now I'd just like to use the PC to watch some movies I have & play around with DVD ripping & recording.

Thanks

I customized my postprocessing.bat script to behave differently based on the channel it is recording. However when I run the script to test it it keeps launching WMP.

Any help is very much appreciated:

I have an issue with comskip where if I run it on a 6+ GB file it crashes. I get the little Send a Report to the Author type dealie and that's it. Not sure where to look to debug this. Any ideas?

This happens with all versions that I have tested with (.64 .65 .66 and a few older ones).

To enable support for the TV Stick (as supplied by http://www.tvstick.co.uk) - otherwise known as the Geniatech T680 - please add the following entries to 'bda.ini' :

[TV Stick]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
FILTER_TUNER=Geniatech BDA Tuner (Real PEN SL)
FILTER_CAPTURE=Geniatech AVStream TS Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=BDA MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

Note : Not sure what's required to get the remote control working properly, with the settings above I can alter the volume but cannot change channels.

I'd like the "system" menu of gbpvr to include another option to display something like the tray right-click "show status" to show the status of the tuners. On the MVP at least.

I ask, because I'm worn out dashing up and down three flights of stairs to check the status on the PC screen when tweaking with the MVP and moving coax cable connectors from aerial and STB's which are all remote from the server PC. When checking for picture quality this was the only way to know what I was watching on 'live tv' analogue, DBV or STB - where some are available on all three.

I'd also like some way to prioritise channels. i.e. while trying things out I asked it to record a program on "channel 5" this is available on RF to the PVR150 and both tuners on the dvb-t. It started recording on the PVR150 - this prevents the video section of the PVR from recording any programming from the satellite box.

I suppose what I could do is to remove programs from the PVR150 that are available on DVB, but this I think is a backward step in limiting what is possible.

cheers,
Martin

anyone tweaked their comskip files and got it to work for most american tv shows/time warner cable? mind sharing it? i mainly record sports events like basketball/football games. thanks.

I've got four MVP's running, and have four processes in the windows XP task manager called gbpvr.exe

I assume these are one each for the four MVP's.

well I have no MVP's turned on at the moment, but two of the process's are using 42 and 46 % of the processing power, the other two gbpvr process are using the remaining, and needless to say the computer runs to a halt.

I have seen it a few times, no pattern 'yet', but every now and then , I have seen it every day I have been on the computer over Xmas, the computer just locks up for a good 20 or so minutes, then magicaly seems to sort it self out, gbpvr process are using no pervent of the cpu time, and system idle process is back in at 98 %.

It's a 2 G P4 thing with 1 G ram.

any ideas what / how I can track this down ?
