1. Installed EWA on top of the GBPVR09813.msi, followed all instructions.
2. Went to the config page, changed Streamer Player to WMP and hit submit.
I then lost all the background colors (see attachment). When I clear the cookies, the format comes back to normal.
Also - streaming does not work.
1. I launch the external player.
2. Get a prompt to download stream.asp
3. Open with file with either WMP or VLC. VLC tries to connect to port 7648, but nothing happens. Port is open on Windows Firewall on the host computer and it's a LAN connection.
When I use WMP - error message: Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network error occurred. The server might not be available. Verify that you are connected to the network and that your proxy settings are correct.
4. Download and play work fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is there any log that I can check?
I've made a lot of progress with my gbpvr installation and have everything pretty well working. I do have a couple of glitches that I can't seem to resolve however:
1- When I'm watching live TV and I want to go to another channel. I use the MCE remote to key in a 3 digit number (or two digits followed by OK). When I enter 3 digits, the screen shows the first two digits ok, but the third digit is then displayed centered below the first two and only the top half of the digit is visible. Its a if a text box was too small to show 3 digits wide. I looked for any font settings in the config utility but I have not found anything.
2- I'm using HIP to interface the MCE remote to gbpvr and also control the PVR150's IR blaster for channel changing. I programmed one of the remote's buttons to start up gbpvr and it starts up ok, but the window is not left focused. so I have to use the pc mouse to click on the gbpvr window to gain focus and be able to use the remote once again. Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change? I also tried adding some of the gbpvr command line options to the command line but HIP doesn't seem to like having anything beyond the executable's name. I tried double quotes around the optional parameters but HIP still gives me an error. Is there a trick to doing this?
All my files are in MPEG - do I have to use the 'scheduled conversion' utility in Processing to change the format to XVID or can GBPVR do it file by file?
Yesterday I cancelled a manual recording in progress through EWA, because the last part wasn't interesting. Later I discovered that it had been deleted.:o I did a few tests and it seems that this only happens through the EWA. When I cancel a manual recording through the GBPVR-interface it is not deleted.
On a side note which might be related. I noticed (before) that when I delete or cancel a recording through EWA the screen is not refreshed, first I thought nothing happened and I clicked the same button again.
I thought this might be the reason for the deleted manual recording, but I tested with one click on the cancel button, the screen is not refreshed but the recording is gone. When I reload the page the recording doesn't show up any more. I hope you get the essentials from my story.
New build, digital channels mapped fine, could see all the digital channels on the small screen as I mapped them. Digital channels play fine using the OnAir software. When I go to LiveTV, only the analog stations play. If I use the + or - buttons on LiveTV, as long as it is in the digital numbers, it stays on the originally chosen analog station, but the guide at the bottom shows the digital channel info as you switch stations. As soon as the numbers hit analog stations, the channel starts changing as it should. NVIDIA DualTV installed as well. The PureVideo decoder is the preferred decoder according to DECCHECK, and is all updated. Any ideas why I can't get those digital stations via LiveTV? Thanks!
Sub--this is the same combo as the machine you were working on(minus the PVR150), but in a new build.
My cable lineup includes far too many channels. Nice when I want them of course, but a pain when I have to wade through all the channels to get to the ones I want in the guide. I've love a way to assign channels to a group of categories and switch to viewing just those when I wanted.
For instance, all my music channels are 800-899. I like them but don't want to scroll through them when I'm looking for movies. My premium movie channels are all in the 600's. PPV are all in the 950-999. HD are all 900-949. I would love to be able to assign channels to a category (more than one) and switch between those categories.
I'm sure one of the problems with this would be how to switch between them from the screen since there's limited room for controls and the logical remote keys are pretty much all accounted for. Might I suggest something simple. First time into the guide displays all channels, but pressing the Guide button again, when in the guide, switches categories. Or a single digit + Guide switches to category 0-9. Nice for us 45-button remote people anyway.
Creating categories and assigning channels to them could be done either in config, or a config option from the System plugin.
Pressing play on a future show highlights it in yellow (or whatever color).
If you are watching TV when it gets to that show, it changes to it automatically. If you are not watching TV, it does nothing (does not autoplay).
An alternative would be a y/n setting to change a cued show to record automatically if you aren't watching at the time (assuming you meant to, but couldn't for some reason).
First my thanks to Sub for an awesome piece of software. GBPVR (v9813) is working great for me, but I need some clarification on supported video types in the Video Library.
I have some XVID AVI's from my camcorder that I'd like to be able to "import" into the video library. However, when I browse the video library for these videos, none of them show up. (the directory appears empty) I do have the xvid codec installed on my machine.
Reading through the wiki I was able to find that it supports mpeg2 videos. When I convert them to mpeg1 or 2 they work OK.
Is it possible to view these without converting them?
seems with 98.13 the cpu usage on a dual core takes up one full core. cpu usage use to be about 20% for gbpvr. am i missing some nifty new feature that warps time and space maybe?
I have just started to use GBPVR and have got most everthing set up and working. But I am having trouble getting the sound settings right. I get the sound but it is slow and sometimes choppy. I have tried many of the diffrent settings but get the same sound Quality. The Capture Card i have is Emuzed/Lumanate Maui-l HP. The reason i decided to try GBPVR was that my Media Center XP records in a format that only a media center Pc can play. My media Center still plays live tv fine. So i know i must be missing something in the settings. Any help would be great, I'm not sure what other infomation would be useful to give at this point.
