Hey everyone,

Looking for some assistance - I have a need to keep my sat recievers in seperate rooms due to in house wiring that I don't want to change/can't change easily. I would like to know if it's possible to setup the following:

- PVR "Server" with pvr150 hooked up to sat reciever in family room.
- PVR "Client" with pvr150 MCE hooked up to sat reciever in bed room.

End result - I can watch two live shows on either tv at the same time, or I can record two shows at the same time and watch a recording on either TV. The key here is that both "TV's" will display the same recorded show information - so in other words, I want the "client" to act like a network encoder for the "server" but to operate as a client as well......

Does this make sense? And if so is it possible?? TIA

I have my tv now working great. but I need help, Its a pinnacle dual pro pci card. the remote plugs in to a phono like socket. Has anyone any idea how i can get the remote working with GB PVR i have tried grider and HIP and cant seem to get it to work for the love of god please help

gb-prv: 0.99.05
CPU: Athlon 900
RAM: 512MB
VID: Radeon 7000
PVR: PVR-350
OS: XP SP2

So far Ive gotten every feature working except live tv. Ive tried the coaxial in and the S-Video in on my pvr-350 and all I am getting is a snowy screen.

Ive attached my logs as well as my config.xml and direct.ini.

Thanks in advance and let me know if there is any other info needed to troubleshoot this.

Hi,

Just wanted to report a problem I had since upgrading to 99.5. Basically when I try to view Live TV I get a flash of picture then purple screen until I press F7. Once the aspect ratio is changed I can successfully view Live TV, and further I can continue to cycle through every single aspect ratio with a picture all the way back to "Fill", which is what I view in.
Note, this happens every time.

I'm using Overlay (I'm on windows 2000) which may be a factor, but this didn't occur until the 99.5 upgrade.

Another issue I have is that I used to find that I could change volume on Live TV without triggering an On Screen Display. Being restricted to Overlay, I now lose picture for the OSD when altering volume. Prior to 99.5, I could alter volume without losing the picture. As before I have minimal OSD checked in the config utility.

Otherwise, the upgrade to 99.5 has been smooth and the software remains top of the league.

Cheers,

Hi Guys

I'm a bit confused here. I am trying to set up GB-PVR using a dbox2 connected to my pc. However when I try and set up a capture card I'm assuming I'm using a software capture card, and there is no option for this.

Where am I going wrong please.

Thanks

Hi All,

Just wondering how GBPVR scheduling side works if I purchase a second tuner. Do I need to schedule each card seperatly or will it automaticaly start recording on the second card when a recording conflict exists?

Thank you,

Hi All,
I am considering purchasing the higher end Autumn Wave OnAir USB HDTV product. This product is more expensive than the GT becase it has an analog encoder. Does anyone know if this product works with GBPVR?

he OnAir HDTV receiver and high definition digital video recorder (DVR) incorporates a Philips ATSC / NTSC / QAM (unencrypted) tuner/demodulator that connects to the USB 2.0 port of a desktop or notebook PC.

Will WinTV PVR USB (model 881) work with GBPVR?
Is model 881 the same as "WinTV PVR USB2" ?
If not... what model number should I look for?

I was just doing some DVB EPG scan tests and had selected the BBC HD channel to include in the guide. With the default 120 second harvest period, with 44 seconds to go an unhandled exception occurred..

I have been using DVD shrink to backup DVDs on my computer. Can anyone suggest a good converter to convert the .VOB files to MPEG-2 so that I can view them on my MedaiMVP.

Thanks.
