I don't have firewalls active and while the recording service isn't crashing, it is using at lot of CPU and live tv etc gets real jerky. Once I restart the service things return normal.
i'm using the latest gb-pvr 0.98.13, with dscaler decoder.
the card is hauppauge pvr-150.
i'm getting the best picture quality in overlay mode, but i'm having a weird problem while using overlay mode and watching live or recorded tv, the quality is great, but while watching mpeg4 files, the osd looks like it's in zoom-in, everything in the osd looks pixalized, and the video itself is being shown only on part of the screen, while everything else is black.
i don't understand why it's happening, because if i understood correctly, the overlay or vmr modes affect only mpeg2.
i tried switching to another decoder (nvidia pure video) and it's the same. only when i switch back to vmr9 it's on full screen and there is no pixalized osd, but them again - lower video quality.
btw: the bigger and pixalized osd while in overlay mode is on livetv too, but there the video itself is on all of the screen.
recording - sometimes, when i press the record button and select "record until i exit live tv", the video crashes and i get a message: "object is not set to a reference...". why is it happening? is this a known problem?
volume - why can't i change the volume while listening to mp3's?
one more - is ther anyway of watching livetv without the 1-2 seconds delay?
i tried changing the deinterlacting is the "misc" tab in the config program, and than there is no delay, but the quality is not that good. when i'm using the dscaler program, i'm getting no delay, and a great quality.
Does anyone know what entry should be added to bda.ini for a Leadtek WinFast DTV Dongle DIB7700 DVB-T Receiver at all please?.
I've tried the entry for Leadtek WinFast DTV Dongle however the capture device is not detected. Can confirm that device is working alright with Leadtek supplied software and that BDA drivers are installed.
[Leadtek WinFast DTV Dongle]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
RECEIVER_ONLY_MODE=1
FILTER_RECEIVER=WinFast Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)
PIN_RECEIVER_IN=Antenna In Pin
PIN_RECEIVER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
The following entries are shown in GraphEdit:
BDA Receiver Component....
WinFast Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)
BDA Source Filters....
WinFast Digital Tuner (Dev1 Path0)
Added the following entry to bda.ini but think that the entry is incorrect as capture device isn't detected:
[Leadtek WinFast DTV DIB7700]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
RECEIVER_ONLY_MODE=1
FILTER_RECEIVER=WinFast Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)
PIN_RECEIVER_IN=Antenna In Pin
PIN_RECEIVER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
Will this card work with WinXP Pro or do I have to upgrade to Media Centre. I am planning to use GVPVR, is it a simple case of installing the card and then instaling the GBPVR or would I have to install Hauppauge software first?
I didnt realise there were 2 versions of the 1300 , MCE and 'normal' and it looks like I have ordered the wrong one and it arrives on Monday.
Apologies for the clumsy link above, couldnt get the auto link working correctly.
Can anyone advise why it's not possible to watch Live TV on a channel that's being recorded even though an option is given to watch the channel that's being recorded?. This problem happens on both GB-PVR PC and Media MVP. One DVB-T Tuner is enabled only however I'd understood that it was possible to watch the same channel that was being recorded.
My cable company switched a couple channels around awhile back, but I wasn't able to rebuild my channels until recently (had too many things queued up to record).
Anyhow, there are 2 channels that I can't get to show up in the TV Guide.
Channel 53 and channel 58. All the channels before and after these numbers show up fine.
Now here's the odd part. In the capture source, these 2 missing channels are in the list, and checked. I even tried Unchecking them, saving, and re-checking them.
On the Channels tab, it shows channel 53, but not 58.
The way ZProcess is able to fool GB-PVR into operation, is its name is ffmpeg.exe. So I instruct people to rename ffmpeg.exe to fmpeg.exe and then ZProcess.exe to ffmpeg.exe...
Trouble is thta either Windows or GB-PVR detects that there is some tampering with the ffmpeg and then ties to restore the shipped ffmpeg.exe
