Hi,
I have search but not found a solution.

When I start GBPVR I will like it starts direct in Live tv on . Is it possible?

Another missing channels problem.

I am missing all the low band transponders and all horizontal transponders in the high band.
However: All channels are found and work with WinTV32/2000 (WinTV crashes all the time, though…)

Dual LNB Setup with a 9/8 Diseqc switch
LNB A: Astra 1
LNB B: Astra 2

Windows XP home SP2 with GBPVR 98.13
Hauppauge Nova SE2
Current drivers 10/02/2006, 2.117.24275 from hauppauge support

BDA driver is properly recognized by GBPVR and I can scan.

LOF 1: 9750
LOF Switch: 11700
LOF 2: 10600

Diseqc A for LNB A
(Diseqc B for LNB B – not important at this point)

Thus, all parameters are set as in WinTV. After an extended forum search, I tried playing with LOF frequencies, with all Diseqc options. It should work with Diseqc set to ‘NONE’ which should do V/H with 14/18V and low/high band with 22kHz, but that doesn’t give me any different results.
I have also tried setting <BDAUsePsiParser>true</BDAUsePsiParser> to >false<, which results in GBPVR crashing and no access to the configuration anymore.

At this stage, I am missing all the important channels. Any help is highly appreciated.

Hi. I just found out about this GB PVR software and I downloaded already
with the Microsoft .NET v2.0 runtime(after reading someone's review on Amazon.com). I haven't bought any HDTV tuner
card yet because I don't want to buy the wrong one. I am using a
Dell Dimension 8200 from 2002 with no Media Center Editon. Does anyone
know which tuner I could buy (a USB tuner would be great). I just want
to be able to watch some of the HD shows. It doesn't matter if the
picture is not amazing. I need my PBS cooking shows so my mom can
watch them because I know they air them in some HD channels. Which ATSC HDTV
tuner should I buy and one that costs cheap. Thanks. By the way...
I live near Los Angeles.

I'm using it to watch xvid avi files on an mvp. I love this program, I had been struggling a lot with trying to get videos to display correctly on my tv. Thanks for your hard work, I don't want to seem like I'm complaining, just trying to help refine

Just about everytime I start an avi file the three windows show up for a second or two then it shuts all back down, the second time I try the same file it will work.

Also, when I load several files into a queue to pre encode to mpg, if I use any option like backing up a file first or moving files when finished I'll come back to see the queue finished and none of the transcoded files. Sometimes it will work if I do nothing to the originals, but sometimes even then it'll drop out some of them and I think its the same issue as the transcode on the fly dropping out on the first try.


My gut reaction is that the problem is with hunter because if I do a manual transcode it always works every time the first time. The only time there is any issue is when hunter is involved, either doing an on the fly transcode to mvp or when using the queue.

Thanks again

Mostly I use gbpvr only as an mvp server, I don't use the recording features at all or watch videos on the pc using gbpvr.

Often times part way through watching a video, after the point where the transcoding to mpg is finished, it will suddenly freeze for a few seconds, then start, then freeze etc. If I push pause it will pause after a several second delay (10 - 15 ), if I leave it for awhile then come back and resume it will play normally.

I finally discovered that when this is happeneing GBPVR.exe is spikeing to around 30% cpu on a very fast cycle, about a second. I've tried killing all other programs that might be interfering, I do have nod32 but I've done the fixes for that and many times just shut it off anyway.

I have some verbose log files taken the last time it was doing it, then some from afterwards when it was running smoothly and the cpu spikes had stopped.

Ok, I didn't make an exact note of the time but I'm pretty sure that the first part of that log file is during the time it was spiking, the last part I beleive it had stopped spiking. I'm not sure when the change happened or if I have normal operation in there for sure, I do know for sure that at least some of that log file is during the cpu spikes. The spikes last for several minutes.

I installed a patch I found in the survival guide post, I'm not sure if it's the same problem but seemed in the same ball park at least I'll have to see if it happens again.

I noticed a strange series in the middle of that log excerpt where it kept saying something about disabling the hauppauge screensaver over and over, not sure if that's normal.

Appreciate any help

I know this issue has been discussed elsewhere, but i cannot seem to find a solution. I am having a problem where my recordings are missing video (i'm not sure how to describe this), it's like segments of the recordings have frames dropped out of them, this is in almost every recordings (it's gotten worse) and seems to be random has to where it occurs. Also, the sound gets out of synce to the video, again random, and does not seem to be tied to when the video problems start (but could be). After installing a new pvr 1-150, and updating pvr, i was having timeline problems, which installing new drivers seemed to fix.....but this started afterward, slowly at first. Does anyone have any others drivers they have tried for problems like this, or is anyone having these kind of problems since updating gbpvr or their drivers? It's getting to the point where the video's are pointless to watch because you miss stuff when it seems to have chunks of dropped frames, and the voices don't synce with the video. This happens in the recording, because it's on my mvp also (which does all the decoding on it's end, correct?), and doesn't seem to be just a playback issue.

OK forgive me if I missed this some where, But heres the story;

Specs:

Windows XP Pro
Happauge Wintv 250
IO Digital Cable (New York) USA


Assembled and set up a PVR, Using a Happauge Wintv 250, installed and configured GBPVR (latest version), When I try to get a preview of my channels on live tv I just get static.

Now I noticed that my Happauge Wintv 250 card came with Beyond TV 3.5 Basic. So I tried that to verify my hardware was at least working. It worked after the second configuation attempt because I changed my IR Blaster to "Null Tuner" (I'm waiting for my IR Blaster to get here from PCalchemy.)

But I did get Beyond TV to work and record (I just can't change the channel while its recording - or it'll record that instead).

I'll admit the setup wizard did a good job, it even asked what type of cable I connected to the Wintv 250 from the Cable Box (S-Video)

I'm wondering if the lack of an IR Blaster is why GBPVR isn't working (I chose "No Channel Changer required). If this is where the problem is, what can I set it too till I get the IR Blaster? Thanks.

Any way to totally replace gbpvrtray with slimmgbpvrtray? Right now I have both in the task tray and no way to tell them apart except when I right click.

Currently, whenever the screen saver activates and then you hit the remote to "wake up" the remote it actions the first key.
Unfortunately the first key pressed is normally the back key... DOH! this normally means we end up back at the Main Menu, would it possible to have an option that the first key pressed just disactivates the screen saver and any subsequent key press is then actioned as normal?

Thanks

Hi, I am new to gb-pvr and am having trouble getting it working with my above mentioned capture card. I am trying to get the digital signal. After a while messing with the latest version I got it to scan the channels and it recognized everything it should. When watching live tv the video is slow and choppy and for the most part not watchable.

This isn't a signal problem because it works in the crappy Catalyst Media Center. So basically i would just like to know if there are any suggestions on getting this working properly.

My specs are:
Pentium 4 2.4ghz
ATI Radeon 9600
2.2 gb of memory
