my machine is highpowered enough to playback hd video but I' having a cpu and video problem :S
athlon xp-m 2600 @ 2300 Mhz (XP 3400 speed )
nf7-s ver 2.0
1 gig of pc 3500 memory
And this is what should put me on top of total suffiency
X1600pro 512 MB avivo video card.
However I still suffer from hacky playback and I have some severe problems with cpu usage it's still a constant 100%.
Because the X1600pro did not come with the dvd player I broke down and got the bought the ati cd so I could install the mpeg2 (dvd codec) but I am still having problems I thought this would off load it to the gpu but it seems like no dice.
Really need a codec tutorial please

Does anyone else have a problem with the blueman for the TV guide menu option being offset from the rest of the bluemen? The image appears down and to the left of all of the other bluemen.
Turning a friend on to gb-pvr, and he wants to run a second monitor and launch gbpvr on that monitor....
I know that the software has the option to "launch on second display," but will this work using one agp card that has multi monitor support?? What I had in mind was an nvidia chipset dual output mid range card...
Any suggestions and or comments are greatly appreciated...
if the server messes up / crashes somehow, it would be good if the client timed out, rather than needing a forced close / restart. Not essential, but a bit tidier....
This is the definition I got for and IR Blaster the FAQ
Quote:An IR blaster is simply an IR emitter that hooks up to your PC so that your PC can send IR signals/commands to your Home Theater equipment, generally your digital cable box or satellite receiver
Clear enough, here's are my specs:
AMD Thunder Bird 900mhz
1 gig PC133 memory

256 Nvidia FX5200 AGP Video card
Sound Blaster Live PCI
10/100 NIC PCI

Happauge WinTV 250 & Hauppauge MediaMVP
USB-UIRT IR Blaster
Using IO Digital cable (NY)
Here's my problem:
I installed the USB-UIRT IR Blaster, went into GBPVR and set it up there, trained my Happauge WinTV 250 & Hauppauge MediaMVP Remote too work with GBPVR (They use the same remote)
Should I have set up the Cable box remote instead?
Also as much as tried to keep this a low budget PVR, I went $50.00 over when I realized I needed the IR blaster and was even more disappointed when I went to set it up last night and the IR blaster instructions told me down load Girder which is now $50.00 (and was free - right?)
I'm not even sure if I need Girder - Do I and if so can some one e-mail the "Free" 3.x version ro suggest an alternative? Thanks
Is there any way to navigate from the listing showing contents on the right to the menu items on the left using the Hauppauge remote?
For example, I'm in My Videos and browse to a file on the right side (contents) and want to select Transcode from the menu. I can't seem to figure out if there is a key on the remote that will let me jump back to the menu. I need to walk over to the pc and use the mouse to click on transcode.
Similar things with wanting to jump back to the menu when viewing music.
I have been using v 97.13 for a while now with several plugins. I would like to start over again and remove GBPVR and the directory it was in and start over fresh with 98.13 but I don't want to loose my recordings I have. Can I just copy the the gbpvr.db3 file then install GBPVR 98.13 then move the gbpvr.db3 file into GBPVR and overwrite the one that is there? What other files need to be copied? Is there another way to do this? All of my recordings are in another folder in the C: drive.
